THIS FIXTURE HAS NOW SOLD OUT
The Cardiff story started a generation ahead of the swans. However come the late 1990’s the tables turned somewhat and honours got very even. It really doesn’t matter regards your thoughts on this part of the derby rivalry, it happened, and it’s a part of the history of this fixture.
The valleys were predominantly a Cardiff hot bed in the late 70’s, then with the success of the swans in 1980 onwards it became a split between the cultures of the day, skinheads and punks mainly. It made gigs that much more interesting.

This is a huge test for Martin. Most especially right now with so much going on to shine the lights so brightly.
He needs to learn how to think clearly under pressure, to win games, not just control possession to look good.
He can learn from the Wales team and caretake manager Page to play effective, efficient, winning football - when it really matters. The way in which Page emulated Cooper's Controlled Defending model in the 2nd half, after totally commanding the game in the 1st half with 75% purposeful possession has to be an inspiration, surely.
If Martin can find a way to turn ineffective possession into purposeful possession, along with commanding, controlled defending we could yet win this.

I’m still a bit confused mate, the club announce its a sell out as do the media and then there’s tickets available. Sorry for giving you misinformation. |
Oh no problem at all mate, There was only 1 row available so it was basically a sell out anyway. But annoyed I wasn’t able to get 2 tickets on general sale though, nowhere was it mentioned that you’d have to link accounts even for general sale purchases. I’ll be keeping an eye out for tickets all week so I’m hoping something pops up by Saturday at least. |  | | |

Indeed the thread should be changed to sold out for Wales number 1 club.

Anything other than a comprehensive win for the Swans, would be disappointing.
Probably the worst Cardiff team for many seasons. | |

They are worried Mac will pick 5 centre backs again, we saw how that ended but we are not WBA by any means.
I hope Oba and Ntcham are fit and we go two up front! We aren't going to score many from set pieces so we need some pace and quick movement and a bit of Piroe magic won't go amiss! | |

I don't think he will, I'm sure I read he had a go against Reading and they were the better side by a distance, but ended up on losing side.
He'll go the same I think, which could actually suit us. But we shall see. |  | | |

Well he has a point but we should be fine because Martin tells us the players are now on the brink of getting really fit, they have now learnt how to play the way he wants them to and have been improving every game, granted he was saying exactly the same stuff a month ago but in Russell we trust | | | |

This is a bit worrying with our history of shite refs:
James Linington has been appointed the referee for Sunday's derby clash.
The official has never taken charge of a South Wales derby, however he has been the man in the middle for both sides on many occasions.
For Cardiff, their record is outstanding with Linington in charge, winning a staggering 16 of the 19 games in which he has been the whistleman.
The Bluebirds have won each of their last previous seven matches with the official in charge, the latest of which was the 3-1 win over Millwall earlier this season.
In contrast, the Swans have won only four of their last 11 matches with the referee in charge.
The most recent match in which Linington officiated the Swans saw Bournemouth earn all the points in a 3-0 victory on the south coast earlier in the campaign.
Rob Smith and Nigel Lugg will be the assistants for the clash while Darren Drysdale will be the fourth official. | | | |
