Let’s hear them.

Can be events on and off the pitch, best game or best day/ night out afterwards, memories you shared with your mates at the time which are never to be repeated.

Your best derby day memory? on 21:13 - Jan 10 by TNT

Keith Walker smashing the ball in their net from the edge of the box at theirs.

Alan Davies curling a sublime free kick into their net, at theirs.

Tatey running out onto the pitch at theirs, straight across to eyeball their fans (Great 'F*ck Off cardiff' flag, on a non-derby day too mwsh)

Gilligan scoring against them at The Vetch and sliding in the mud in front of their fans, in celebration.

Joe Allen scoring in front of The Jacks at theirs (namesake Joe Allon being sent off against them, in a different era at theirs)

Going there 23 times and coming away with a positive result on 14 occasions... bring it on, on Sunday. YJBs.


YJB ! Only been to one at their place and that got spoilt by that Buchanan cwnt!

Can't believe people don't mention this one as much

1984 at the Vetch a really warm late April day we were 2-0 maybe 2-1 down at half time and come back and won 3-2 a certain Dean Saunders scoring 2 goals for us.

Fair play cardiff fans every where in Swansea that day but it was the mid 1980's I suppose

About 50 cardiff fans run over to the North Bank across the pitch and then....Nothing!! all very odd

Carling cup 2008 1-0 at the Liberty. My son who was 8 at the time lived with his mother in West Wales, he’d been to a few games with me but it was quite difficult to arrange because his mother wasn’t keen on him going because she remembered the 70’s/80’s.

Anyway, start of the season he informed me that he’d asked his mother if he could go to more games and she’d said yes, but no evening games an definitely not the Cardiff game!!!

The first game we went to that season was Cardiff, midweek in the Carling cup, between the atmosphere, winning the game and being behind the goal when Gomes scored he was buzzing.

He’ll never forget that game and I’ll never forget watching him turn into a passionate supporter of his local club.

So many.

The comeback from 2-0 in 84/85 on that warm April day.
Toshack’s run from the halfway line on his comeback as manage and player to score
The Live and Kicking return from the dead in 85. Along with the graffiti on the back of the Grange
Aizelwood turning like a supertanker in the snow
The 2-0 win at Ninian in ‘88. All the sweeter by putting Steve ‘silk’ Hurley’s ‘ Jack your
Body’ on five plays for a quid in a room of glum bluebirds in the Red Cow in Treorchy.

But in the words of Jarvis Cocker ‘Do you remember the first time?’ I always will- that Welsh cup final 2nd leg in 1982. The madness. Latchford’s goals. Ante’s sending off. But my abiding memory is the late, great Robbie James climbing on the fence of the West Terrrace.
Cup in hand showing it to the visitors. Fist clenched. Always a legend.

Getting stuck in on the Kingsway on new years day about 1980.

Nothing open, no shops, no buses, no coppers, everyman for themselves.

This is why football ground s should always be in city centres.

That was my first visit, nyd 88 pissing with rain and thought we’d won it. Top atmosphere all game.
League cup following season, 2 late Paul wheeler goals see us through after losing home tie, bedlam in the away end. Chopras late goal 2010, think you lot were just singing never beat the jacks too😂.
Bellers goal to silence the liberty,
Off the pitch, you were never in the same league apparently, fa cup 91, 1000 walking through Swansea with no police, just like the 80’s again I was told. Load of bollox really, the dark ages.
I’d rather a pint and chat.

I laugh every time I think about that. Would love to see a video of that if it exists anywhere. And what happened to that big wooden Swan? Would be a collector’s piece now.

Oh,..Dave, what's occuring?

Seems like you’ve been “told” a lot of things but have experienced nothing. Some of us were at these so called “triumphs” for Annie’s’ fairy tale stories. Go away you ignorant little c*nt.

Dopey cûnt should ask himself where the huge police presence actually were after the match...

Terrorising families shopping in Oxford Street still appears to be one of their finest moments. However, I seem to remember an incident outside the Queen’s...😂

Protecting you lot as ever. Didn’t terrorise anyone. All the nutters were laughing their heads off if I recall right, what do I know I wasn’t really there or at any of the other games I mentioned.

Bound’s last minute winner at the Vetch in 97 (may have been 98) is right up there.


This. Great day.

Just edges the 3-0 hiding we gave them in 2014 and Chopper's winning goal in 1991 for me.

Pain or damage don't end the world. Or despair, or f*cking beatings. The world ends when you're dead. Until then, you got more punishment in store. Stand it like a man... and give some back.

Boxing Day '89 was my first derby. Always remember them booing Cohen Griffith.
Loved being around the police escorts in the mid to late 90's and drinking in the atmosphere.
Half pissed and laughing at the shít being spoken, sung and shouted.
Winning 3 nil in the Prem was special.
