Dave Jones sacked and Swansea promoted to the Premier League as the first ever Welsh team. What a sad, sad day the 30th of May 2011 turned out to be for us Cardiff City supporters.

About one month ago I was in the Ninian Stand with my father and six year old son watching Cardiff outplaying and comfortably beating Portsmouth 3-0.
