What an amazing day, Cardiff City FC are in the final of the FA cup! Joe Ledley is the toast of Cardiff after firing his volley in the back of the net, also netting a deserved man of the match award. It isn't all good news though, in normal circumstances the winner of the FA cup qualifies for the Uefa Cup, but, as Cardiff City are a Welsh club and not affiliated to the English Football Association they would not be allowed to go into the Uefa Cup.
Uefa spokesman, William Gaillard, has suggested Cardiff could be given a wild card entry should they win but that decision will be made by an executive committee. What a blow it would be if Cardiff win and then don't get the benefits that any other winner would get. Shouldn't everyone be treated the same? To get into the final of the Cup is a massive thing for the Welsh people, to be in the Uefa cup would be a dream come true, a moment of legend throughout all eternity.
I for one think the winner of the FA Cup, whoever that is, should go to Europe.
