Football as we used to know it has gone. You can no longer meet up with a group of like minded lads and have "an off" and have a £50 fine. You can no longer stand at stadiums. You can no longer stand in Grandstand A block at ninian park.
you can no longer throw something and hope not to be caught on camera. You can no longer roll up to the game with a tenner and get a ticket (junior bluebird echo token) beer and food.

its changed lads and nobody misses the old days more than me but they are gone. I hate a lot what football stands for and if i didn't love the actual sport itself so much i probably woudn't go anymore.

A lot of things have died that were more important to me than watching city in a blue shirt (and not necessarily the things i mentioned above) but i still want to watch cardiff city in the english league pyramid. And if the name Cardiff City can become a worldwide brand i would be willing to watch that team in red

I know a lot of you disagree but i dont see that as selling out in the slightest.
