Cardiff City News
Q. How many Jack Bar-Stewards does it take to change a lightbulb? A. It doesn’t matter, they’d all be too occupied trying to smash it.

Swansea City is a horrible football club and the city itself is host to horrible people. Firstly, the Jack goalscorers celebrated with the infamous ’swim away’ motion, a rite of passage for all Swansea folk and players that relates to an incident a few decades back when Swansea hooligans - who far outnumbered their counterparts [...]

A draw at home with a team reduced to 10 men in the first half is not normally considered an alright result by any stretch of the imagination. Reading stretch the imagination beyond normal grey matter boundaries mind, so there are I suppose some positives to take from earning a point against a team we [...]

Unfortunately (or fortunately) I missed Saturday’s Bluebirds game as I was in Florence watching Fiorentina beat Udinese 4-2. The latter was a game so exciting that it sent Lippi loopy! The Plymouth-Cardiff game was being screened on Sky Sports, but the only bar we could find that was open and showing football had opted instead [...]

I hereby offer a short posting. Which is something of an anomaly. It delivers tremendous news too. Which is also something of an anomaly. Cardiff City FC are showing ambition. Now hear me out, please. I’m not using such soccer rhetoric in the usual mindless and misguided way managers and players do. Nope, the big [...]

Cardiff City beat Crystal Palace 2-1 to ensure that rivals Swansea City didn’t leapfrog them in the table. Phew! Palace’s goal came from the ultimate usage of route one; a long punt upfield and two seconds later the ball is buried by the lone striker. Oh so simple, but oh so aesthetically wrong. Our central [...]

Cardiff City were robbed of taking anything from a game they were never out of by some farcical and diabolical refereeing decisions. The Bluebirds had been forced to play(/toil) with 10 men for the bulk of the match and then 9 for the closing stages, were denied an absolute clear-as-Volvic-or-Evian penalty kick midway through the [...]

As the world news radar is currently consumed by some election result in a big country the other side of the Atlantic Ocean, reports that Cardiff City’s only two strikers Ross McCormack and Jay Bothroyd are sidelined for one and two months respectively have been relegated to non-existent status. It’s Wednesday afternoon right now and [...]

… well the rats aren’t quite fleeing just yet, but they’re designating the toothbrushes and rifling through the wardrobes and cupboards as I type. However, the laissez-faire attitude they are currently adopting towards their escape will soon be given an injection of speed should we see defending, team-play and incision as hapless, useless, lethargic, apathetic [...]

For the second time in the space of 4 days, Cardiff City win after fans of both teams involved endure the individual and collective dire showings of 22 men on the pitch. Our victims this time were Blackpool, a team that pegged us back in the 95th minute when we played them in the reverse [...]

Cardiff City beat Nottingham Forest 1-0 in a game that might have driven the neutral to insanity through excessive tedium, sloppiness, profligacy, laziness and absent or vacuous leadership. Both sides did a bit of each, both teams racking up certain components more than others. This was my first trip to the City Ground, and after [...]
