Marks 10 years since our first game again Chasetown at the Cardiff City Stadium. A hell of a lot has happened on and off the field since then and possibly some of biggest moments will still happen up to that anniversary date.

To date, what is your single most memorable moment at the Cardiff City Stadium? From the most obvious to most obscure...share it.

Most memorable moment? Chopra's late goal to beat the Jacks, silence their supporters and send our fans mental.

Always enjoy threads like this but find on this board they never do well. I did one Saturday evening that I felt warranted a thread but I had one reply about most enjoyable goal scoring celebrations. Sorry I missed your thread, as an exile I haven’t been to every game but in no particular order games I have been to.

1. Playoff shoot out vs Leicester
2. Chopra goal to beat Jacks in injury time.
3. Hudson goal vs Derby
4. Bale goal vs Belgium in Euro qualifiers
5. Final whistle vs Charlton (first premier league promotion).

Maybe removing the Wales game, I’d replace with beating Man City.

I think my most memorable/pivotal moment was against Leicester in just a league game, we went down to 9 men with a lead as we had a red plus an injury. The teams back were against the wall and the crowd went mental and rallied behind them. Chris Burke was outstanding on that wing. It was then that I said to myself 'yeh ill miss Ninian Park but this stadium can create more noise when we sort our act out'.

Most meriable for me was the worse moment scarfgate never felt more shamed to be a Cardiff fan than that day it made me feel physically sick being in the stadium. Glad we are past that bull shot now though.

Another odd one that sticks out for me was Duffy’s two own goals for Blackburn and him being our top scorer for ages that season :lol:

Yep remember that Blackburn game..it was pissing down and we moved from our st seats in the ninian up to the corner of the canton to keep dry.we were shit that day but Blackburn were shitter.Remember talking to a blackburn fan in the pub b4 the game who thought they would get smashed..o ly under trollope could we struggle against such a poor side, thank God warnock's was appointed soon after otherwise wed be in league 1 now rather than rubbing shoulders with the big boys.

Loads already mentioned, but the Gabor Gypes rugby tackle against Leicester down to 10 men, and then super Kev having to play on 1 leg and we got the win.
Also something I'll always remember to my dying day, climbing those f*cking stairs to the upper Ninian every week, each time you turn the corner you pray you'll see the concourse, but nope, another set of the fuckers. :lol:

Best moment for me was when the egg chasers left, and took all their poxy paraphernalia with them. We got our own stadium back. Closely followed by that Leicester league game, post Gabor being sent off. Finally proved that we can create a great atmosphere in the new stadium.

Can't believe some people don't consider the CCS our home just because it isn't old/run down/different sized stands etc. If I were to stand in the center circle on a non match day at Villa Park, Loftus Road, Old Trafford, Brammall Lane etc I would get the exact same atmosphere, emotions, feelings at all. What makes a stadium a home is the fans and the players and the manager and the memories that have taken place there.

In less than 10 years at the CCS we have seen 2 promotions to the Premier League, Cardiff lifting the trophy for the championship, multiple years of play off semi finals, a league cup run that took us to the final and watching our team play some of the best teams in Europe.

Outside of CCFC we've also seen a major European final held there, the women's Champions League final, Wales qualifying for our best ever tournament and more.

We're now witnessing one of the biggest fights for survival in our history in the richest league in the world with the cheapest squad. With players that many top championship teams wouldn't take and a manager that some think should've retired years ago. It's this fight and the fans backing them that make the CCS home. :ayatollah: :bluescarf: :ayatollah:
