The Millwall fans are clearly a bunch of pussies.

 

Not one of them, unlike our Geordie friends, attempted to punch a police horse.

I wonder if the re-brand matters to the Cardiff fans now?

 

I know that sounds snarky but I don't know how to write it more sincerely! Chuffed to see the Welsh derby in the Prem next year though.

 

I think most fans have effectively ignored it.

 I don't have great knowledge about this. However: -

 - From reading comments in the Welsh press, the club is routinely referred to as the Bluebirds.

 - From watching tv footage; the away strip is still blue and white and that's what the majority of the fans have purchased.

They are still called the Bluebirds.

 

The ones I know don't care.

 

Swansea v Cardiff was tasty back in the day.  Opposing fans even had a battle at a Glamorgan cricket match once.

To be fair, that's the trouble with supporting them. No shortage of morons.

 

I know, I lived in Cardiff for a bit. I worked with a few who supported them and they were great lads. But out and about in the city centre on match day, oh dear, some of them.

 

That said, I suppose you could say that about most football teams supporters; the majority are the good ones, but they have their bad ones.

Enough of this Premier League lark, its a travesty Formby won't be promoted to the North West Counties Premier on a technicality - hope the appeal goes there way!  Two points clear at the top of Division 1 with two games in hand and reported to have the best bar in the North West Counties, I've still to visit, not a good day on the football front!

Bluddy Targers now six points clear of third placed Watford with only four games left. Deary me.

 

I can see the gloryhunting season pass queues forming already.

If it makes you feel any better I bumped into an old mate of mine the other day who is a lifelong City supporter and he's pretty confident they could still blow it. I guess that's what a lifetime of supporting the 'bluddy targers' does for your belief.

 

He also trusts Assem Allam about as much as we do.

I know what you mean. But the pitch is built on a floodplain and below sea level and it's been absolutely hammered this season with all the rain we have had. As I live on the same road I pass it most days and it has been in a terrible state.

United can win the title IF they beat Villa on Monday, @OT, actually thats not if, but by how many.<br /><br />Villa still have to play Chelsea who beat them 8-0 at the Bridge earlier.<br /><br />Plus we face Wigan, who may be in a do or die position the same as Villa on the last day of the season.

Did James Graham apologize via twitter wen he had a nibble on Billy Slaters ear? 

but to be fair whats worse? your robust arm in a footballers mouth for a few seconds or your ear in a scouse prop forwards gob in the heat of a touchline brawl!

the inside of a 3star halex table tennis ball smells much like you'd expect it to.

So, a second ban for biting on top of his ban for racially abusing another player last year.  Surely that's deserving of a far longer ban, even if just to reflect that it's the third serious offence.

I was thinking about this on the train this morning... if Duncan Ferguson can get 3 months in jail for headbutting a fellow player, why are so many people complaining about the harshness of a 10 game ban for biting?  I'd be expecting more of a 10 month rather than 10 game ban.
