'15/16 YOUTUBE TALES | CCS TIME-LAPSE vs DERBY
Community
20th May
In the latest in our series of Cardiff City YouTube Tales, Media Contributor, Connor Pearce, has picked out his favourite moment caught on film during the 2015/16 season.
Back in April, a record home crowd cheered City on to a 2-1 victory over Derby County, and Cardiff City Player HD were on hand with a time-lapse video of the crowd building up at CCS. Watch that video at the top of this page - while you can read Connor's summary below...
"After a week of intense build up, crucially underpinned by the South Wales community, it seemed as though our season-defining clash with Derby County was going to break a club record. Thanks to thousands of Season Ticket renewals, and great participation in our #CityAsOne game at St. David’s Hall, a Cardiff City Stadium capacity crowd for a Bluebirds match was expected for the Derby fixture.
"When match-day arrived, it was clear that the game was going to be a very special occasion. The amazing atmosphere building up outside the ground was slowly but surely making its way into the stadium, on a beautiful day in the Welsh capital. Taking my place in the stand before kick-off was an amazing moment; to see 28,680 fans ready to cheer their team to victory was a season-defining occasion. The City support was massive – with goals from Bruno Ecuele Manga and Stuart O’Keefe being spectacularly serenaded by a loud and proud Cardiff contingent."
