Welcome to our new website!
The upcoming season looks set to cast a significant spotlight on Cardiff City, as four of their League One fixtures in August have been selected for live television coverage. This is a testament to the growing interest and excitement around the Bluebirds' campaign, which many, including myself, believe could end in Championship glory.
The action starts at Cardiff City Stadium, with the season-opener against Peterborough United scheduled for Saturday, 2 August at a revised time of 12:30 BST. This match will not only kick off our season but also mark our first step towards what could be another legendary chapter in the club's history.
The television cameras will follow the team to their first away match of the season against Port Vale, now set for Thursday, 7 August at 20:00 BST. This night fixture promises to be a thrilling encounter as Brian Barry-Murphy's men look to assert their dominance early in the season.
Later in the month, another key away clash will be in the spotlight, as the Bluebirds take on Luton Town on Saturday, 23 August at 12:30 BST. This game, set in the early hours of the weekend, will be crucial for maintaining momentum in what I predict will be a tightly contested league.
Wrapping up the month, Cardiff will return to the comforts of Cardiff City Stadium to face Plymouth Argyle on Saturday, 30 August at 12:30 BST. This match will be another opportunity for the team to showcase their might to the home crowd and gather crucial points in their quest for promotion.
The decision to broadcast these games live is a nod to Cardiff City's potential this season. It also brings back memories of the 2002-2003 season when we clinched promotion to Division One. Matches like these remind us of the potential Cardiff City has to rise, enthrall and conquer adversities, much like they've done throughout our storied past.
And finally, a light-hearted nudge to our neighbours: How many Swansea City fans does it take to change a light bulb? None, they're still waiting for Cardiff City to show them how it's done right.
