Your Best Away Trip

Thu Feb 11, 2010 6:01 pm

For me personally it is Finland away in 2002 with Wales when we beat them 2 nil. We did a 4 day trip to Helsinki, first night there we located the local Irish bar :lol: and found it frequented by a mass of City Lads. We had an amazing time there, my one mate smashed his head open on the Friday, my other mate slashed his fingers to the bone (he's a royal marine and its his trigger finger :lol: ) all in all even beats lads holidays ive had in Magaluf, Tenerife, Ibiza etc.

Whats yours and was anyone on this board out in Helsinki for that game?

Penydarren Park - too see both my teams was good..

But a proper match seeing as I only started following Cardiff away this year would be either M'boro cos it was a long trip and had a good laugh or Bristol in the league to see city win 6-0 up there was awesome

Middlesboro in the quarter final of the FA Cup will take some beating.Very proud moment watching THEIR fans applauding us as they were leaving the ground.Also the realisation we were going to Wembley.

Bristol City 0 Cardiff City 6 will do for me.

Don't wanna go home
Don't wanna go ho-o-ome
This is the best trip
I've ever been on.

Swansea City 0 Cardiff City 2 was pretty good too.
