It's worth a read guys, how people above him on there actually allow it to go to press is laughable.

His obsession with them being the capital team is Truely cringe worthy.

Give it a read guys 😂

How can one Club attract so many insecurities , scrambling around spouting the same nonsense as previous years. They were banging on about using the Millennium stadium due to the massive potential once they reached the PL. A no mark club with no mark fans, its a pity that we and the rest of wales have to suffer doubly when the "national" media of Wales deems everyone outside crapdiff as unworthy .

WoL has in my opinion no bias against Swansea city. Naturally WoL Cardiff writers promote Cardiff (Abandonatto) just as their Swansea writers promote Swansea (Micthelmore).

The big difference between Liverpool / Man City and Swansea a is that their fans do not give a fig about the London media.

The BBC has a pretty low regard for Welsh football in general due to a lack of coverage. Women rugby fulfils their remit of supporting minority interests. Ellis James is well to the fore these days with Wales and Swansea.

I do recall this site actually proving there is bias last year.
A very decent study in this papers coverage, and the disregard for Swansea City’s anti racism stance which they never even mentioned, despite the major news outlets in the U.K. congratulating the club on the landmark move.
I do believe many other examples were provided, and as much as the BBC disregarded the Swans on Monday WOL do the same. Mitchelmore is continually fighting his corner against the bias. Trust me.

Swansea anti racism stance needs to go the "Whole hog" and discourage and ban "sheep" references. It belong in the same genre as "Monkey" themed abuse. It is an extreme accusation indicating the recipient is in some way "sub human".

To an impressionable 13 year old there is little or no difference between sheep themed abuse and monkey abuse, Both are puerile and both are to be discouraged. Monkey abuse to an Hungarian is just a bit of fun as it sheep abuse to an Englishman or even some Welshmen. Theoretically if you find one funny then the other should also make you laugh.

I remember the 'hilarity' caused n the Vetch in the dark days when bananas were thrown. The change was media driven. Sky sports are not interested in the abuse Gerwyn Price was getting. They apologised to middle England by turning down the volume and letting the English drunk abusers enjoy their "fun" Gerwyn baiting.

In fact the assembly has the same regard.

It does annoy some people I agree, I saw a bloke and a a very mouthy woman being knocked on the floor by two female Swans fans against Wigan, nobody really bothered with it, just stepped over them.

As I said for some it’s an issue but I think they are in the minority.

What he says is probably factually correct, Cardiff being the Capital City probably are attractive to foreign buyers who could be sold the dream of buying a club in the capital city, a stadium where the National team play, only a bridge to cross to England, and it has to be said a pretty cool City to visit, eat, Cardiff Bay, especially is very European.

We, geographically, are more isolated, a treck to get too, a more beautiful City but, I don't think, not so great for eating out, location to the the main centre etc.

Fan base point doesn't make sense, I'm an exile but I wouldn't support Cardiff if they were in the Premiership, even if we were non league, but casual foreign fans ? Yes no doubt, but so did we when we went up. We also showed that we could stabilise, only a series of crazy buys then chasing losses, sent us back down again.

We can sell ourselves on the beauty of the area, and what is more, our brand of football, we were everyone's second team when we went up, there's no reason why we cannot do it again. As I've said all season, we need to give this guy a chance (despite me being majorly peeved off in Blackpool) , a decent summer, couple of players who can play the system, next year, we could be deadly.

Bit of a daft article, sounds like fluff trying to write something positive after last Saturday's fun and games

Trust the Process

PS I don't really care if BBC Wales ignore us, I was brought up watching Neath, anti establishment. We're obviously winding them up, let's make it so they cannot ignore us

All he's done with this article is take it straight from one of their forums. I read the thread earlier in the week. Cant remember if it was on Annis site or the main CCFC site.

As one of their posters pointed out, he could express an interest in buying, with no chance of doing so, but would still be considered a potential buyer.

Being the capital of wales is hardly going to excite a hard nose business guy.
If it was it would of happened by now. Do you think Tan purchased Cardiff because Cardiff is the capital of wales ?

No one is going to pump serious money into Cardiff, it’s to much of a gamble, a club that is already haemorrhaging over £2,000,000 a month.

Personally I think all this talk of people wanting to buy them is just a smokescreen to placate the inhabitants of legoland after last Saturday mauling by the Swans.

I explained it in the sense of the "dehumanising" aspects. To you and me 'Monkey' chants are appalling. The the average Ferencvaros fan they are a bit of fun. Back in the days of the Vetch if the Rochdale West Indian centre back went off upset the fans would have loved it and laid it on even thicker. I was there and saw it. In those days Gareth Edwards playing "all white skinned " rugby was fine and generally supported. Apologies are thin on the ground.

I can find several example of people being charged with 'sheep related ' abuse under "disorderly racially aggravated behaviour". Please explain how these cases were prosecuted if it is like "night and day".

Sir J have you ever been face to face with someone calling you personally that barb (with your family). I have and it is not pleasant. I see no reason why I have to accept it. What anyone else does (doff their cap to Sass yobs) is up to them. I see a community living in denial.
