I am fucking disgusted that UEFA are talking about giving them a wild card entry into the UEFA cup if they win the FA cup. Cardiff knew the rules when they entered the tournament!

And yes, this does stem from my resentment that we were not allowed into europe when we won the league cup!

I assume that it is the good will of the FL that allow Swansea, Cardiff & Wrexham in to the FL as they come under the Welsh FA, so why should they be allowed an 'english' cup place when they don't come under the juristiction of the English FA.

anyway this is hyperthetical as I'm sure Pompey will beat them fairly easily.

Hereford and Shrewsbury have both entered and won the Welsh Cup and been denied the european place that laughingly goes with this tinpot competition.  So the Taffies can fuck right off.  If they want a place in Europe play in the Welsh Cup

If they can beat the best we have to offer then fuck it, let them play in Europe, I don't care and I'd rather see them playing Real Madrid than bloody Chelsea. If the FA don't want them in Europe they shouldn't let them compete in the cup.

To be fair they play in the English leagues. So i don't see what's so wrong with it.

I'd love to see the Soul Crew having a good tear up in Madrid or somewhere.

Cardiff played Anderlecht in 1994.

I think that was the last time the Welsh FA nominated a non FAW side to play in the Uefa Cup. Because of the trouble.
