Though there are many out there these days who cannot afford to follow City - at £24 a ticket not all can afford that in these austere times.
There's also the sick and infirm out there that love the City but can't get to games
They are no lesser supporters in my opinion

I also know people who SUPPORT Cardiff but very rarely go to games if ever.
So to me that is not supporting your team its just liking a particular football side, support to me is when you yourself put money into the club by going to watch games wether its home or away.
Do you agree?

television has sanitised the game as a sporting event these days .
this question has raised it's ugly head more than once on here and it;s impossible to answer .

Not because of the move to the new stadium (although its not as much of a draw as Ninian) but because I'm more I've got other things going on of a weekend, spending time with my son who's not interested in football yet but is about the age when I will start to take him.
I don't think that makes me any less of a fan as I'm sure there will come a time when I go religously again, just not at the moment.
