About this book

It’s the dying moments of the 1927 FA Cup final. Cardiff lead Arsenal by one (slightly bizarre) goal to nil. The referee, wearing the bowtie that was the tradition of the day, blows the final whistle and Cardiff fans stream onto the pitch to celebrate. A Welsh team has won the English FA Cup.

Cardiff fans aren’t quite the same as other fans. For over a century they’ve taken lengthy journeys to watch away games – crossing the Welsh-English border every other weekend. With this book, Bluebirds fans can take a different kind of journey – back in time, through authentic newspaper articles about the moments that shaped Cardiff’s history.

Archivist insight: We reproduce these newspaper articles from the Daily Mirror scan archive. In some cases, there’ll be blemishes and the reproduction quality might not be as clear or precise as it was in the original paper.
