If I have to sum this game up in three letters, they would all be the alphabet’s much maligned 26th character in a bold, capitalised font with a few full stops littered in between each usage of the three Zorro logo’s. You get my drift… this was a snore-fest. Regardless, my hands were clapping and [...]

Well… we made it through to Round 3 of the Naff Fizzy Tasteless Lager Cup. And that’s a ruddy positive! As with everything in life though, there came a price. A mightily impressive looking Tony Capaldi limped off in the first half, followed by Darcy Blake. Even worse, Riccy Scimeca was the victim of a [...]

Although I confidently predicted a 2-0 cruise, it turned out to be more like a trip on the ill-fated Titanic. We got the exciting part and ride on the ship, but then it all went pear and iceberg-shaped. We rested on our laurels and paid the price for some Laurel & Hardy defending. Understandably I’m [...]

In a week that has seen two of our players end up on losing Welsh national teams – Parry with the full team, Blake with the U21’s – here’s hoping that they rejoin a squad still buoyed and surfing the momentum wave provided by the unbeaten start to the season. Watching City-wise, this week sees [...]
Category: Cardiff City NewsHave you heard the one about the Hungarian at the Cobblers?

No me neither as such a joke doesn’t exist, but it acts as an apt headline to the news that we’ve signed a Hungarian centre-back from Northampton Town. I’m really trying my utmost to avoid using a pun involving our club being peckish and… yeah, you get the drift. So this, presumably, is the [...]

As Mark E Smith once said of the current music scene, the lump of bread dipped ravenously and plentifully into yoof of today chutney: “God help us if there’s a war.” Roger Johnson has chosen to come out and attack City fans for daring to chant at manager Dave Jones during Saturday’s encounter with Doncaster.

So it continues: The last time City tasted defeat was in the FA Cup final. Our 100% start to the season – continuing a successfully undefeated pre-season – was maintained yesterday with a draw at lowly but plucky (patronising and condescending: Why the hell not?) Doncaster Rovers. After 5 rather hungover, mundane, irritable and unmemorable [...]

Lo and behold, it looks as if we’ve finally made efforts to sort out the woeful scouting system inadequacies! The appointment of Roger Smith is a leap in the right direction and shows that the club is starting to realise that ambitious actions can speaker louder than phony words. Although the examples of Smith’s coups [...]

Naff lager, naff cup. I’m sure Chester fans will concur with me at the very least. Seriously, if anyone, anywhere lists this competition as their absolute favourite please make yourself known. Now now, don’t all rush at once… this isn’t the opening of a Primark flagship store y’know! As was entirely appropriate to a competition [...]

Every single win, be it a 31-0 thrashing or a jammy, undeserved sucker punch steal is rewarded with exactly the same prize: 3 points. Such logic applies in all aspects of life: If you work 80 hour weeks for 20 years before you finally earn your fortune, Sod’s Law dictates that you’ll still end up [...]
