Thanks everyone else...only wish there was still TOTP's!!
But I'd love us to have a hit and everyone go...how on earth did this happen?
We haven't spent any money on publicity, pluggers or aren't on the X factor..
Just through word of mouth and City fans...how cool is that? haha!

Hi everyone,
Just to keep you all updated..
Seems the single is doing numbers nobody possibly imagined..and people are REALLY starting to sit up and take notice..in London.
The whole point of this was to get as much publicity for the immortal Fred Keenor...as they said in the Cardiff City history...quite simply the 'Greatest' ever Bluebird.
A man twice injured on the Somme...he comes home and Captains his beloved home town club to the FA Cup in 1927.
I'm learning so much about the man and what he was that it's humbling just to be involved in something bearing his name.
One time in the Home Championship Wales were playing up in Scotland...Fred (playing for Cardiff) was the ONLY Welsh player playing for a Football league Welsh team...City.
The English teams would not release their Welsh players....so Wales travelled to Glasgow with 10 Welsh League players and Fred.
Scotland that year were heavy favorites to win the Home Championship.
In an astonishing game Wales pulled off a miraculous 2-2 draw..with 10 non league players!!! Imagine that now.
Apparently Fred was everywhere...encouraging his fellow countryman, throwing himself into tackles so that by the end he was hobbling but still standing..
The Scottish crowd were enthralled by his performance and gave him a standing ovation as he left the pitch..
The next morning the Papers ran the result...Scotland 2 Fred Keenor 2...
THAT'S the kind of player that played for OUR club.
Anyway, the single is doing so well it's just behind Westlife and JLS in the pre-order charts but above Shane Ward and The Saturdays...sounds mental doesn't it?
But check this link out..(It's now number THREE!!!)
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/new-releases ... s_m_h__mte
And do you know what?
The more WE spread this link...the more we buy the song...the more money we make for the Statue and the more the world will know about the great Fred Keenor.
Keep the faith Brothers and Sisters...we look more and more like a Premiership club ON and OFF the pitch everyday..
The giant they all spoke about it having a good yawn and stretch..and when he stands (excuse the pun!!) up then people will see a BIG club...I'm proud to be in London as a Cardiff City fan and hearing people say...this fanbase is incredible..cause you are...
Thanks again for all your help, encouragment and kind words and I'll look forward to seeing you soon...the beer'll be on Carl, Annis and Tommy Fish okay? haha!

But I'd love us to have a hit and everyone go...how on earth did this happen?
We haven't spent any money on publicity, pluggers or aren't on the X factor..
Just through word of mouth and City fans...how cool is that? haha!
Thanks Jonny, we have not pushed it yet.
She is in the UK Open Mic Regional Final in Cardiff on the 24th, and is a contestant on a new Sky TV Talent show to be aired in Summer next year.
This week she is going down Kent to start recording her songs, and some covers and then starting work on her video.
Any help you can give would be brilliant
No 1 for "I'll Be There" is a must be
