Now that's funny. I was speaking to a couple of Cardiff STH's yesterday who said almost the exact opposite. They were hating the PL and really looking forward to playing in the second division next year. They sited the falseness of the division and the referees perceived bias towards the bigger clubs (in Cardiff's case every club-bar palace).You know Cardiff are down when they raise this kind of stuff to deflect from a hammering at home in a game they clearly banked as a winner - just makes them look a small club which despite 1 season up with the big boys, they most definitely are. The Cardiff fans I know from my time living there seem to all now be suffering from the "premiership syndrome" of suddenly taking themselves way too seriously and thinking that's their natural and rightful level and those below them are less worthy which history says it definitely is not.
Now we know the story is bulls*t
Hey, more motherly sense from you Edna..

I've told this story before, but I was at the P*rtsm**th press conference before their FA Cup tie at Southampton a couple of seasons ago, and the written press were - as usual - being kept hanging around while Avram Grunt droned on and on to the local TV and radio. Through the open door of his office, what should I see but a whiteboard with the team to play Saints written up on it? Quite an unusual team too, with Mullins at right back.
Of course, respecting the bond of trust that must exist between members of the media and clubs they regularly cover, I did what you will all agree was the right thing.
I immediately texted the team to Saints assistant manager Dean Wilkins.
Danny , she's made it perfectly clear she's off limits . But I do admire your persistence
What difference does it make whether CPFC knew their line up or not as the facts are plain simple any Cardiff team would not have beaten them.
I believe a Mackay team would have beaten them. Tan relegated Cardiff when he lost his nerve with Malky.
He got booed off by large sections of Cardiff fans who perceive him (from performances so far) to be lazy, uncaring & incapable of putting a decent cross in (who knew??).
They sang at him to do the Ayatollah, he ignored it, Palace sang at him to "give us a wave": he gave them a wave.
In danger of pissing his career down the drain if he doesn't sort himself out. Which would be a shame....
The same Malky Mackay team which rolled over at Selhurst and lost 2-0?
Sadly, chaps, I think he has us on this one. Cardiff started this season better than Palace but have flopped when it's counted and will go down. Unfortunately, Palace have done the reverse
*******s
Few people are ever completely off limits. But, being a Palace fan- he'd have to be unbelievably fit for me to consider it
