Tom
Witham is clearly delighted that he has been
granted the honor of chief navigator for the
journey to Wales
|
McCarthy
found this toy of Shrek in the back of the Kane
Mobile
|
|
|
|
|
Witham
is soon having a bit of fun with it
|
We
are on the Severn Bridge, leaving our homeland
of England
|
|
|
|
|
England
disappears behind us
|
Witham
looks happy at the opportunity to mingle with
foreigners
|
|
|
|
|
McCarthy
is distraught, as he leaves the country he was
born in behind
|
This
machine toll was a let down, as we couldn't
ask anyone where we had to show our passports,
or what currency they used, or which side of
the road we had to drive on
|
|
|
|
|
A
foreign service station was a chance not to
be passed
|
Kane
and Witham couldn't miss the chance to pose
at a foreign Burger King
|
|
|
|
|
This
service station worker was wearing patriotic
Welsh colors of red and green
|
This
sign had a large portion in the language of
the natives
|
|
|
|
|
In
the service station shop, and Witham gets into
the spirit with this toy sheep
|
Meanwhile
North Stand Chat's Fatboy, who was making his
Crocs debut, arranged these sheep into a clever
pattern
|
|
|
|
|
Neil
miraculously fitted into this Bob the Builder
simulator
|
McCarthy
had trouble fitting into Postman Pat, and when
he did, it started moving for some reason
|
|
|
|
|
Inside
the ground, and the sign we found so amusing
in the toilet last season is still here!
|
Possibly
the best notice in the football league
|
|
|
|
|
Witham
poses in the comftable Ninian Park toilet
|
Neil
fishes something out
|
|
|
|
|
The
main stand
|
The
end behind the goal, complete with patriotic
Welsh flag on the roof
|
|
|
|
|
The
other side
|
The
Cardiff fans that the terrace behind the goal
was shared with
|
|
|
|
|
The
flag is hung up on the crash barrier
|
The
teams warm up ahead of the game
|
|
|
|
|
Neil
and Witham look forward to the game in prospect
|
The
teams come onto the pitch
|
|
|
|
|
Neil
is delighted to be in Wales
|
This
man had a rather splendid hat
|
|
|
|
|
The
first half, as the two teams are equally matched
|
The
superb catering facilities, as the fans que
for half time food
|
|
|
|
|
The
price list. We dared not try Clarks Pie or Guest
Pie, as we were not sure what would be in them
- perhaps sheep testicles
|
The
man in the catering facility had a rather camp
moustache - perhaps grown just for the visit
of the gay army
|
|
|
|
|
This
lovely Welsh lass who was selling programmes
poses with McCarthy and Witham
|
The
steward did a fine job of making sure that the
ground was safe
|
|
|
|
|
As
did these two
|
This
netting is used to good effect with the large
fence to separate the foreigners from mixing
|
|
|
|
|
The
game continues in the second half
|
Cardiff
are 1-0 up, and its Alan Lee who gets the goal
|
|
|
|
|
Colin
Kazim-Richards comes on, and it would prove
to be a pivotal moment in the game
|
The
ref attempts to get things under control shortly
after Kazim-Richards had scored
|
|
|
|
|
The
game is deadlocked at 1-1
|
It
is soon the final whistle, and Brighton have
a good point
|
|
|
|
|
The
players congratulate each other at the end of
a hard fought game
|
Paul
Reid searches for someone in the crowd
|
|
|
|
|
The
players thank the fans for traveling abroad
to support them
|
A
good result all round, although maybe it should
have been 3 points
|
|
|
|
|
Ninian
Park empties
|
This
steward wishes us well for the journey back
to England with a cheery smile
