All these recollections are personal but for me the very worst times were when we really were faced with extinction.
Black Friday under Sam, the many days in court facing real life winding up petitions under The Riddler. These weren't propaganda for the ant-Sam or anti-Riddler factions, we were actually a judges decision or a rescue cheque away from folding.
Those were the days when I really thought that after 40+ years of supporting my club they were going to either cease to exist of end up in the Welsh Premiership.
All the more reason to enjoy every minute of these good times

Yep that's them. I think these lot are FC Salzburg and have had a few promotions since forming.

In that case it became extinct the day it was changed from Riverside AFC to Cardiff City and the colours changed from gold and brown to blue and white....oh and let's not forget the time we went extinct in 2003 when we dropped the A in AFC to become Cardiff City FC.
Or what about 1975 when yellow was added to the home shirt and shorts or in 92 when we played in blue shorts instead of the traditional white.
