Has taken another step in our direction recently and gone relatively unnoticed.
I just looked up the all time football league table, and it seems in recent times we have now overtaken them.
Swansea are 55th
Cardiff are 58th
Both based on 96 seasons in total.

I don't even think of them as rivals anymore, recent results have taken the edge off the rivalry for me. |  | | |

I’d hate to see them relegated because it’s an easy six points every year. |  |

personally to me size doesn't matter, its the ethos ,structure and how well the Club is run is what counts , and atm we're years ahead of them |  |

They do a great job of playing it down, but if they were in the driving seat it would be a different story trust me. |  |

I think that most people have become bored with ragging them because they’ve got nothing worthwhile to come back with, the saddest part for them is that they know and accept that their resurrection to something they can be proud of is further out of reach than ever. |  | | |

Whether we like it or not cardiff city will sometimes been seen as the bigger club by the casual observer simply because of its capital status but apart from that that's it but in recent years they are more seen as a basket case of a club

Hey now….we have hope you know…😜
We are used to this sh*t, it’s in our DNA.
Like when 28000 turn up to see us be d over and lose four effin nil….
I don’t need to mention our playoff record either do I.
Apparently the last 10 yrs have been our most successful almost ever, yet most people I know stopped going…..strange eh?
Games used to be important now I personally don’t really know if or where we are playing. |  | | |

You can take all sorts of factors into consideration when debating who's the biggest club and get nowhere with it. But to me, the simple fact is that I as a Jack living in Llantrisant know that most of, if not all sensible Cardiff fans would swap what they've been through with what we've achieved over the last few decades in a heartbeat.
I'm 33 now, and never have I ever thought "look at them lucky F*****s". That says a lot to me. |  | | |

Whatever level they play at, it's still our club, relegation dimmed down the fire of the Premiership, but the ambers remain, all it will take is a spark or two to reignite. Fire starters costs money and our club, is still in a position to afford that. Martin may well be a stop gap for a few years to keep us on that even keel.
If he were to go tomorrow, with whom would you replace him ? | | | |

I’ve got an issue here with no heating .
I’m only popping in .
To answer your question I d need to be able to source the market .
I think I could do that but I’m not employed at the Club.
I’m pretty sure I could come up with a coach who would ensure tactics means something and players learn from mistakes. Even have a captain that motivates and guides .
If we are lacking in pace ,and we are, I d deploy a quick player and deploy him accordingly.
We do not have to suffer ,John. | |

I was only gutted about that because Cardiff went up to be honest. But I knew they'd come straight back down as per usual. And from experience I knew that I'd enjoy being back in the Champ, experiencing other grounds, more so called derby matches and having a right go at it. More so than Cardiff fans would've getting pumped every weekend, as we were towards the end of our Prem years.
I love the ups and downs of it all, and the downs make the ups mean so much more. Winning every week would become boring haha but thankfully we win just enough every now and then to have achieved more than what I thought we would've in my 20yrs as a ST holder. | | | |

I ll be frank here and a£mit I detest Cardiff. apologies for the word mods.
They were an embarrassment whilst ,for a few years,we stomped around the Billy big bollox clubs and it made us feel very proud. Going to cold Rafford and Infield and shattering the arrogance of the glory hunting M6 fans | |

That was the beautiful moment….swapping places. Warnocks promotion was the only high I can recall in the last 10 yrs and even then, we all knew exactly what was coming although he almost achieved a miracle in keeping us up after wasting 60 million on rubbish | | | |
