Cardiff City were founded in 1899 and are the only non-English side to have won any of the three major English competitions. They won the FA Cup n 1927, during a decade when they were one of the strongest sides in the English league, finishing runners-up in 1923–24 and also losing 1–0 to Sheffield United in the FA Cup Final of 1925. They have also been regular winners of the Welsh Cup and as the winner of the Cup in 1966–67 gained entry to the UEFA Cup Winners' Cup, reaching the semi-finals in 1967–68 hey played in old Football League First Division periods of 1921–29, 1952–57 and 1960–62.
Their history in recent years has been less successful but they have made some improvement in the last few seasons. In 1986, they were relegated to the Fourth Division, and over the next 14 years slipped into the league's basement division three times. In 1996 they were the league's third lowest placed team. However, a Football League Second Division playoff triumph in 2003 lifted them into the Football League First Division; In the 2008–09 season they failed to make the play-offs for the Premier League on goals scored to Preston on the final day of the season.
Cardiff have a young and determinated side but also have the old heads in experienced striker Michael Chopra who will be key to their sucess as he aims to prove himself as a premier league striker with the blue birds. Their medfield area seems to be the best part of the squad packed with exciting young homegrown talent in peter wittingham, ross mc cormack, stephen mc phail and joe ledley
