Chris Kamara misses sending off at Portsmouth.
This has got to be one of Chris Kamara’s classic moments on Soccer Saturday when he completely missed the sending off of Portsmouth player Anthony Vanden Borre. Even non football fans will appreciate the funny side of this one as Kammy looks totally bemused when the camera is turned on him! To rub salt into the wound Kammy seems to think that Vanden Borre was substituted rather than sent off. Its a... read more

Thierry Henry handball – The fallout
With the fallout of Thierry Henry’s handball still rumbling – even the political leaders of both France and Ireland have become involved I was suddenly reminded of Robbie Fowlers attempts to get a penalty decision overturned. During a game against Arsenal Fowler stumbled in the box and was awarded a penalty and sportingly told the referee ‘I tripped over my own feet’ nonetheless... read more

England Vs Ukraine to be internet only
England’s World Cup qualifier in the Ukraine on Saturday 10th October 2009 will be shown on the internet with people paying at least £4.99 for the privilege. I personally think it is a shame if we end up going down this route especially with such a pitiful broadband service in many areas of the UK. When a game is shown on Satellite TV a large proportion of the population have no access to the match... read more

Ramsey Arsenal Bound
After weeks of transfer speculation and Aaron Ramsey talking to the Mancs, Everton and Arsenal it appears he has signed for the latter. Its seems a meeting with Arsene Wenger made up the teenagers mind to sign for the Gunners. Is this a good move for the player and is it good for Cardiff City? Well being a city fan it would have been nice if the club could hold on to such players but with debt looming over... read more

Cardiff City FA Cup Final Ticket Shambles
What a complete and utter farce the latest city scheme for tickets. The club have initially decided that they will be accepting postal applications only for a while before people are allowed to go down to Ninian Park in person to by tickets (on a stand by stand basis). So later today along with probably at least 10,000 other people my full name, address, date of birth and full credit card details will be... read more

Cardiff City – West Brom Great Game And No April Fool!
I just cannot believe what I witnessed down at Ninian Park last night – one of the best games i have seen all season despite being a nil nil. From some of the drivel I have seen down at the home of Welsh football this year (Only Joking Leighton James) including the likes of Bristol City, Hull City and a few of the play off contenders Wolves and Plymouth spring to mind us and West Brom should be... read more

Leighton James Sacked
Its about time that clown Leighton James was sacked from the Beeb. It has been clear for years that he does not have good word to say about Cardiff City even though being a BBC pundit he should be totally impartial. You certainly do not see the likes of Alan Hansen shouting down the England team when they play and making sly comments, no he is totally professional. I see no problem in Swansea being... read more

Judge rules in Cardiff City favour
Just after 2pm on Wednesday 19th February it emerged that Langston (Sam Hamman) had lost its case for a summary judgment. The judge ruled that Cardiff City had every chance of winning if the case goes to full court so a summary judgment in this instance was not appropiate. Call me skeptical but as Hamman once said no Sam at Cardiff City, no Cardiff City then we can only presume its Mr Hamman trying to... read more

Cardiff City Vs Sam Hamman (Langston)
As a Cardiff City fan I am very very concerned about the evidence that we have presented in the Langston case (sorry the Hammam case). I am particauly concerned about the following paragraph that i read on the icWales website Mr Wolfson said that Langston must have known when they signed their October 2006 loan renegotiation that the May 2007 date was never going to happen as there were a number of clauses... read more
This is always the worst bit isn't it? Well where can I start. My name is Robert Dicks, 33 (yes I will update my age every year!) from Cardiff.
I am also a freelance web developer (monicowebdesign.co.uk) working with html, CSS and php technologies and has gained considerable experience in SEO techniques including optimizing for local searches.
Away from work I am a Cardiff City Season ticket holder and a general sports fan! I also like to get away from the City and I especially like being by the coast especially if it means around the Pembrokeshire Coastal Path.
