Not many Cardiff City fans were too pleased with the comments of Birmingham City co-owner David Sullivan in last weekend's edition of Wales on Sunday.

Here are a few alternative and unedited views from the unofficial Cardiff City messageboard.

Lawnmower said:

"Just picked up my WOS and he's grabbing the headlines again, saying 'The Premiership don't want City.'

"Now fair enough, they probably dont,but then he goes on to quote that 'after the Birmingham game they were half-rioing outside'.

"Eh ? Whats that all about ? Our fans behaviour was FAR better than his louts who caused the worst violence seen inside NP for possibly 20 years ? I cant think of worse than that seat throwing injuring their own fans and stewards (before you quote the Leeds game, nobody got hurt then).

"He then says there were running skirmishes in sloper oad with police. NO, the police just cleared the road, which they did, as usual, easily.
Th practise of hanging around the ground afterwards is pointless and never gets the young hoolies anywhere, but it hardly compares with what we saw from the Birmingham fans inside the ground.

"Sullivan goes on then about how THEY have cleared their act up and we had a long way to go. He obviously has not looked at our improved arrest figures - ironically more Brum fans arrested that day than CCFC fans arrested at NP all last season !!

"Just proves, if you have no morals you can get rich without being particularly intelligent.

"He also states that a final in the MS will be like a 'home' game for City.
Wrong. It makes no difference. 74000 seats in the MS is likely to see us getting the smallest allocation if we play Wolves, Sunderland, Brum, WBA, Southampton or Derby ! The game is bound to be a sell out, and if I remember the allocation is based on average home gates, of which ours are clearly smaller than those above clubs.

"He then ends up by saying he might still end up owning us!"

Bloom Gloom said: "Total tosser!"

Bluehutchie said: "Just read that article on IC Wales - Sullivan has no idea about the work this club and it's supporters have done to improve matters. I notice that WoS do not quote any figures to counteract his comments - just accept his words as fact - usual crap from an utterly rubbish rag. Andy Rose has to be one of the poorest journalists around."

Auntie Andy said: "I blame the WOS for allowing him to spout his garbage. Why don't the WOS back us up with the truth? No that would be asking too much. I don't buy the comic."

Lawnmower again: "Not helped by the fact that the journalist was Andy Rose, who is such a Jack bastad that he knows f-ck all about City.

"He added fuel to it by saying there was trouble after the Spurs game.

Thats rubbsih too."

And finally Thornhillblue said: "I too have just picked up this rag and read this pile of sh1te!! Both Sullivan and WOS are guilty of painting us all as no good violent hooligans!!!

"That's it for me-I am never buying another copy of this paper when they publish crap stories like this!!!

"As for the content of the story Sullivan doesn't have a clue does he?

"He should look on his own front door before he spouts crap like this!!

"Premiership bosses are quaking in their boots because of the reputation of City fans?? Total rubbish. Perhaps they are quaking in their boots but it's more likely to be because a WELSH side could be in their Premiership!!! Surely this prospect is no worse than a unfashionable side like Reading, Portsmouth or Wigan being in the Premiership???

"Sullivan = Tosser, WOS = Tossers"

As always thank you all for the feedback.
