Cardiff owner Vincent Tan has informed the club's board that he prefers them to buy players with the number eight in their birth date.
I'm afraid he isn't 8 is considered a lucky number in Malaysia. He changed the strip to red and added the dragon to the crest.
Pineapple is also a sign of good fortune so I expect the new stadium to be in a pineapple under the sea!
Apparently Wilson only reinstated Kennedy to the side so that Nyatanga doesn't get injured before his move to Cardiff. Lewin was born on 18-8-88
Lets hope Flicker was born on the 8th of August, i can just see it, me and Tansy are building a project I have refound my inteligence since leaving Oakwell.
I can't find a credible link to substantiate this. I sort of want it to be true, but the best source I can find suggests that a Sun journalouse said it on TV the other day. Hmm...
So, assuming that includes the year part of the birth date, that covers everyone born in the 80s. So everyone between the ages of 24 and almost 34. Plus around 1/12 of those under 24, who were born in the 90s, but born in August. Plus around 1/10 of the rest, who were born in the 90s, not in August, but on one of the 3 days in each month with an 8 in them. The guy is an embarrassing fruitcake, but given the age profile of footballers, he is not narrowing it down too much!.
