Cardiff will be bigger than Liverpool in 5 years!
 

I really cannot over estimate what a sleeping giant Cardiff City have been for so long

its been over 50 years since they made it to the top? quite why it took this long is beyond me

but they have the entire south Glamorgan / valleys of around 1.2 million population....plus a few turncoats from Newport and Bristol and many of the vast welsh ex pats in England will return

theyre expanding to 32500 within a year....then 38000 after 2 years....if they survive 2 seasons, they may keep expanding

they've just signed they huge Danish striker Cornelius who looks class....add to craig bellamy, earnshaw, cowie, peter whittingham, steve mcphail, nicky maynard, gunnarson, McNaughton...I think they have enough quality to survive just below mid table

the whole of south east wales and valleys will support them....every game will be a sell out , they may even use millennium stadium for a game.....better still they will hand pick young welsh stars fro the academies that in previous years were lost to richer English clubs like speed, simon davies, bale, giggs and many more

they've been waiting 50+ years for this, the passion is awesome....they'll be pumped to destroy their bitterest rivals the swans....

they have a billionaire backer in Vincent tan, £60 million windfall from promotion / tv

they'll get welsh assembly support too....as the idiot politicians know how massive an economic boost this is in tough economic times

Cardiff are here to stay!

truth by name, truth by nature

Thanks for telling The Truth! Cardiff will prevail this season. Let's go BLUEBIRDS!!!

the truth = the deluded.

Its possible cuz Liverpool are sh*t.

Must be terrible to have a **** team have won more trophies than you over the past 8 years

:joker:

Oh dear :joker:

The money you got for going up doesn't even cover your debt and Vincent Tan looks like one dodgy mother****er

lol just because he looks like han out of enteor the dragon doesnt mean hes an evil megalomaniac

this isn't even a dig at Liverpool.....this is a statement that Cardiff will become a giant of british football......they've made the fa cup final in the past few years to....the latent support base is phenomenal , their training facilities at vale of Glamorgan are better than anynes bar man united , they will have welsh government support and they have a whole nation from which to hand pick young talent....all they will need is to survive 2 years then the world could be theirs

You should join the Cardiff City fan club on here, thetruth! :bigsmile:

are u a cardiffian barker? didn't know there was one, can you send me the link for that please

Yes sir I am! Here's the link,

The problem they've had is they're superb academy produced many great players and lost them all, the past decade or so they produced joe ledley, bellamy, gareth bale, aaron ramsey, etc and lost them all.....now perhaps they can produce and keep their own talent

As a life long Swansea fan I can only :joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker:: joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::j oker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::joker::jo ker::joker:

Cardiff are the next QPR, they will sink faster than a very big stone in the PL. The club are a joke.

im pleased for themdon't be clouded by bitter rivalry... ive no beef with Swansea they've done awesomely well under a very smart chairman ....im delighted for them, its great for welsh football and for the local economies

Cardiff are expanding to 38000 within 2 years....they virtually sold out every league game last season with the 27000 stadium

they have the billionaire backer who has cleared debts , they have the premiership windfall....they haven't got t carried away with spending, they have a fair bit of strike power....weve reached an fa cup and league cup final in recent seasons too....wrld class training facilities, brilliant academy....bale...ramsey...ledley...bellamy all came thrugh Cardiff and the welsh academies are ripe for picking

also lets be honest the welsh assembly will help out here and there as theyre Cardiff ccentric and biased towards the capital....

id say if we survive 1 maybe 2 seasons then we will fats become a colossus of british football

:joker:Pmsl

You'd think this Cardiff lot would have learned there lesson years ago about making such ridiculous statements, when Sam Hamman said this

- As owner of Cardiff City, August 2000.

Then again its these little things that make reality a bit sweeter, and is why I will thoroughly enjoy seeing them become the next QPR and getting trounced on a weekly basis.

u cant blame ceriff for hamman being a donut, look how he left Wimbledon...former fa cup winners turned to rubble...good men have rebuilt cardiff

My point, was the ridiculous statements you lot seem to come out with down there.

"Cardiff will be bigger than Liverpool in 5 years"

"we will fast become a colossus of british football"

Its statements like this, along with the fact that you have sold your soul for 5 minutes of fame, and seemingly will do anything as a club just as long as you are in the limelight...someone on this thread even suggests playing a game at the millenium stadium, that make you a laughing stock.

I hope Cardiff sink like a stone and I will thoroughly enjoy seeing you get hammered every week. This has nothing to do with 'bitter rivalry' I just think Cardiff, as a club, are pretty much everything that is wrong with British football.

bitter drivel

Cardiff produce massive talent from a hugely successful academy
theyre well supported with a great stadium and fantastic training facilities too
yes theres a few beauts following them just as with every club....but theyre on the right track now

as for selling their soul? you play the game according to the rules....they play in red now so blinking what, its still Cardiff city and the great people of this great city finally have a team a stadium and the money to invest in becoming a world class club

I want Swansea to do well, I don't like their ball biy much mind, nut they've achieved hugely on a small budget and great support...Cardiff also have great support and whilst their business plan is different it doenst make it wrong. they haven't been crazy spending, they've been smart....they will need to settle on their premiership style of play, my only major concern is whether malky can attract the quality needed over the next few seasons.

All i'm saying is I am astounded by the arrogance that comes from down East. You will never catch a Jack saying 'we are going to be a collosus of british football' and thats after 2 (count em 2) successful years in the PL. You havent even kicked a ball in the PL yet and you already believe you are one of the biggest clubs in the world.

Bitter drivel lol after you've spent 2 seasons in the PL, finished each one in the top half and won a major cup final, come back and maybe you might be on the right track.
