Bluebirds Stun Canaries!

Norwich City 1 Cardiff City 2

RAVE: Great win. Ironically Dave Jones thinks that this was our worst performance of the season but the best result! We need another result like this to cancel out 2 good home performances from which we got nothing!

Also - the streak is ended - the city won their first league game after going behind for the first time since 9th August 2005 (Leeds at Ninian Park - won 2-1). Lets hope the other streak of not having lost a game in which we have gone ahead, which dates back to the October 1st 2005 (Luton lost 2-1) continues a while longer.

RANT: International football - do we need it? Am I the only one who thinks that international football gets in the way of the real thing? If you put together the best 10 teams in the world, how many of them would be international teams? Brazil, Italy maybe, but not England. However, you would probably include AC Milan, Real Madrid, Barclona, Manchester United (though I hate to say it), and probably the top 2 or 3 teams in most of the major European countries - perhaps one or two from South America aswell.

Money and air travel has changed the world of football forever and I see international football becoming less and less relevant.
