The Severn side derby!

Sat Mar 10, 2012 8:27 pm

We were chatting today about how special it was to beat Bristol city. In my time supporting Cardiff they were always the better team. I loved beating them today but why dont it feel the same as a few years ago!!
I'm sure the Cardiff faithful that went today will be buzzing but it used to feel so much more special than this!!

Maybe I am getting older now and the excitement has gone but I would normally talk about a win like this for weeks!!

Also the media and the banter would go on for weeks!!

My favourite victory over them has to be the 1-0 play off semi. Loved beating them 2-1 at NP when Trundle was too scared to go on the wings.

Used to be our big derby game, but somewhere along the line Swansea took over. Pity.
