Blackpool vs Cardiff

DJ was pulled right arm was pulled in the box just as he was going to shoot for their 3rd goal, lucky for him 2 Bardiff palyers fell to the ground to block his shot even though he missed it, all worked out in the end... Lucky barstards lol
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

Cracking match, I forgot it was today, turned on looking for the Champion's league final but that's going to have to go some to beat this.

3-2 and the woodwork struck 3 times. Could still go either way if you ask me, Cardiff are getting back into it.

Missed out on their opportunity to get into the ENGLISH Premier League.

This could be the start of a difficult time for Cardiff, they are skint, but have an investor lined up, but he may not be so interested now they are not going up.
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

Congratulations Cardiff

.........for losing to Blackpool today. Hopefuly now you'll go into receivership, fold and then re-form in the Cymru Sheep Division 39 (South).

See ya, you Welsh scum. :wave:

Cardiff's been in trouble for ages now, they've sold a fair few players but I've never understood why they brought Chopra for £4M, shame really;)

Precisely. It couldn't be more perfect. Proof that the ultimate dream is still alive - just - and that sustainable growth can triumph over Ridsdale's boom and bust irresponsibility. An excellent day for football. :)

I thought Chopra was the only Baadiff player to look like he might be able to compete in the Premiership.

He can't though!

Shame!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

Well done Blackpool..

The look on Risdale face at the end of the game said it all...........:sorted:

I wonder if those Malisyan business people will be as keen now............
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

Well done Blackpool, chuffed for Olly, BBB and Dj. Fully deserved it, took the game to them throughout and were terrier like in closing down.

In other news - People banging on about Cardiff "shouldn't be in the English Football League = Massively small time in my opinion.

They've been in it since at least as long as Brentford have, along with half a dozen or so other Welsh clubs. It's called 'The Football League' by the way, no 'English' prefix.

Is this a hot topic in Scotland with Berwick? Or the County Championship with Glamorgan? I dunno, it's incredibly tiresome though.
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

You wonder if it will ever be our time.

Blackpool have won the PO final 3 times now, div 4, div 3 qnd now div 2 (old money of course)

DJ failed to help us up, BBB lost it with us, taylor, asaba, smith, ratcliffe, ashby all lost it with us and won it elsewhere, forster lost it with us, burton scored against us in the final but then lost when he played for us.

The list goes on and on. It can not be gutless players, lack of desire or lack of talent as all the players go on to do it elsewere.... sometimes i think there is higher authority in power!

christ that's depressing reading.

Maybe it's just self fulfilling prophesy. Blackpool have never lost them so go into them thinking they're going to win them, where as we're exactly the opposite, regardless of ever changing managers and personnel.

I'd never not want to be in them though for fear of losing, and settle for 7th place thinking they'd be to painful to compete in.

You do wonder dont you. Without being too depressing i wonder whether we will see a squad and mangement as good as the Coppel era. If he couldnt get us up with those players then who is ever gonna have a better chance? (Andy Scott a challenge for you)

They should be affiliated to English FA though. The way disciplinary procedures work is a joke IMO. They try to have the best of both worlds.

Well done Blackpool.

We can't have a Welsh team in the English Premier League, in fact they shouldn't be in the English Football League.

Does it honestly bother you? I can't get my head round how anyone could give a toss.

Yes it does.

Would you be happy to let Celtic and Rangers in?

Our time will come and when it does it will all be the sweeter for the failures that went before it. In fact I fully expect the wheel of fortune to turn full circle and we will find that when we do go up through the Play Offs it will be from a season when we just scrape in to 6th place, and then probably fluke our way through via penalties. Next season, in fact. :sorted:

Nope not by a long shot. However Cardiff, Newport, Swansea et al were in long before I existed so seems a waste of time to get worked up by it. I take the point raised by the other poster re FA's and Disciplinary proceedings etc.

The Welsh League is embryonic and pathetically small. Kicking Cardiff and Swansea into it doesn't help either.
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

There is some serious Latvian money (Valeri Belokon, joint owner) behind this success.

He hasn't been as interested since the plans for a super casino were scrapped by the government.

I don't have any problems with cardiff or any other welsh teams playing in the football league or the premiership - but it did irk me that before today's game there was no national anthem played (so I believe) for fear of upsetting the welsh fans.

Isn't this the "national" anthem?

:confused:

It bothers me that the national anthem wasn't going to be played before the game. l watched the game in a bar out here in portugal, couldn't hear much before the game so maybe someone could confirm.Well happy for Holloway despite managing those tossers down the road and not having the best of times with us, having spoken to him a few times l think he is a top bloke.Well done Blackpool.bye bye taffs.

Yes that is correct, it annoys me as well. We also had no national anthem when we played Stoke, as Cardiff were playing QPR that weekend.

No they weren't. That was the League 1 P/Off final the following year.

Hmm ok maybe my memory is playing tricks with me, perhaps it was because they were in the Semi's and may have got through to the final. Or maybe I'm losing it and we did sing the national anthem?? :confused:
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

I have no problem with welsh teams playing in English leagues, my problem is them still being governed by the welsh fa. How can they have one governing body for one team and another for all the rest. There was that incident when cardiff were in the fa cup final when the welsh fa scrapped a one match ban so they could play in the final. Darren Purse I think it was, absolute ludicrousy.

Swansea, Chester, Wrexham and Newport are also under them?

It will be interesting to see if the Latvian backer starts splashing serious cash now they are in the EPL.

Welsh T*ssers all over Uxbridge today.
Abusing women and kids doing their shopping.
Singing anti English songs.
Well done Blackpool, proper English Club
 

Blackpool vs Cardiff

If a group of fans had started singing the national anthem just before the match, there is a good chance most of the stadium would have latched on and joined in, and the point would have been made very clear.
