The FA Cup
Sunday’s FA Cup semi being Cardiff’s biggest game for 81 years, it’s also the biggest game I’ll have been to - and it’s dominating my thoughts right now, even though there are a dozen strange and wonderful things going on around me. It’ll also give me a chance to exercise my architectural fetishism re: stadiums (no, not stadia). Much as I love the Millennium, the cachet of Wembley is hard to resist.
You know, I find myself having more of a sentimental admiration for sportsmen and women as I get older. The dedication of one’s life to a single moment: very noble. I’m not sure I could say the Cardiff City players quite fall into this bracket yet, but two more victories and I just might change my mind…

Good work, and a goal worthy of winning a semi-final to boot.
Do you fancy your chances? Portsmouth weren’t at all convincing on saturday.
