Find it hilarious that the Vincent Tan Arena (or the 'Cardiff City Stadium' as its still known for the moment) is hosting the UEFA Super Cup tomorrow. I understand that Cardiff has proven to be a good venue for one-off sporting events. I understand that they don't want to play it in front of a half-empty Millennium Stadium. I still can't reconcile that with deciding to play it in a shitty little identikit stadium which has nowhere accommodating within walking distance and is not in the friendliest of areas.

Is it really? :shock:

How much of a kickback did that cost Tan then?
