If you had told me that in that time we would reach 2 major cup finals, a play-off final and celebrate 2 promotions to the Premier League, I would have laughed in your face or summoned some psychiatric help on your behalf.
When your team has underachieved for as long as we have, you're bound to question whether this is as good as it's going to get when we find ourselves battling against the country's elite teams week after week.
As has been said on here many times recently, just enjoy the ride. When we were a struggling 3rd or 4th tier team, I'm sure every one of us were imagining what it would be like to be a top team, dreaming of playing in the best league in the world. Well guess what, we've made it ! So try not to over-analyse our present or future, just embrace the fact that we have achieved so much in the last decade and this is a great time to be supporting the team.
Well no wonder you don't remember the good teams if you've only started following Cardiff so recently .
My recollection of the years just before that are actually slightly inflated I now discover . However your post made me look it up and if it will work I shall reproduce a complete record , which I think people will find interesting....
