1924 = ancient history:SLEEP: its just not happening now and thats what counts CMON THE SWANS
Trav are you saying this because you have no history????
Well done all you Jacks, you bottled it yet again. No wonder you have no History. BlooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooBirds :Randy-git:
Wouldnt say we bottled it at least we can find the back of the net and anyway Benny as you say it was only a mickey mouse cup roll on promotion :biglaugh:
Four league games without a win, got your mind on the FA (mickey mouse )cup. See we give that Wembley Visit to the MK crew. FOCUS on the League. Learn from us and next season you might get in the Premiship.
Bri
Learn from the Jacks Ha Ha,
Just so others can see why we have such a rivalry, imagine Liverpool doing this or ay other team for that matter. Comments Jacks will be welcome:
In April 2006 relationships between Cardiff City supporters and Swansea City supporters were not helped after Swansea won the Football League Trophy final against Carlisle United 2-1 in the Millennium Stadium Cardiff. During their celebrations, Lee Trundle and Alan Tate brandished a Welsh flag with an anti-Cardiff obscenity written on it in huge black writing. As well as carrying the flag, Bundle was also seen wearing a T-shirt with an image of a Swansea City player urinating on a Cardiff City shirt.[4] The Football Association of Wales (FAW) said the images paraded at the match, which took place at Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on 2 April, were "of an extremely offensive and insulting nature and such behaviour is totally unacceptable". After committing these deeds the two players in question were arrested by the Police on suspicion of section four public order offences, fined £2,000, and handed one match suspensions
I remember that Benny. I remember Trundle coming to the nick when he was at Wrexham, with his driving documents. He really is as thick as a whale omelette!! Gotta say though, he's got a decent touch, and has scored some nice goals.
In fairness, I think the bad blood has been going on a lot longer than that. Just Like Wrexham/Chester and Liverpool/Man ure. When it comes down to it I think we are all as bad as each other when it comes to rivalry with your biggest rivals.
I for one cannot stand Gary Neville, in fact I found it difficult to write his name then!! I was at Old Trafford(castle Greyskull) a couple of seasons ago when Man ure scored a last minute winner(as usual), after getting played off the park all match. I could handle the defeat..Just. What I couldnt handle was the weasle faced Neville racing the full length of the pitch to taunt the Liverpool fans. I know he hates Scousers and our team and Ive got no problem with that, thats his choice. But this was their Captain and the self proclaimed mouthpiece of all that needs to be said in football. At the end of the day, although Liverpool have massively underacheived in the League in the last 18yrs, it still riles United that we still hold the record for Laegue titles(call it what you like) and European cups. And I think what keeps our rivalry so strong is that after all their dominance they are still behind us. Dont get me wrong here, I have not got blinkers on and can honestly admit..as much as I hate United and some of their fans, themselves and Arsenal have been a class apart over the last decade. (Apart from not having 5 European cups between them of course!!)
When all is said and done, as long as there is no step backwards to the violence of the 70's/80's, would you ever want the rivalry to change between the teams you love to hate?
NO THANKS...its what makes it all worthwhile!!!
(Apologies to the Diehard Rugby fans we all know it should be like Rugby etc, but this is a topic reagrding football rivalry after all.)
ref: the flag throwing it is rumoured/reported that it was thrown onto the pitch from the press/media area of the stadium by a Ca cough/splutter based newspaper reporter out for a story and he got it at the Swans expence w@%&*$ the tee shirt incident you can buy them in any part of the country showing your team urinating on any other team you like and why didnt plod stop people openly selling them in the streets around the stadium
Totally agree with you Scouse, I hate the Mancs as well, but have a mate who I have a lot of banter with and yes he cant stand the fact its still 5 - 2 to Liverpool, and like you said does it matter if it was the old first division or the prem, Liverpool stil rule.
Trav you will have all the street traders from CARDIFF looking for you after those comments. pretty mean bunch, hope to see you on the bus going to wrexham, I have a soul crew badge for you, wear it with pride when you go to see the jacks next season??
