The main even however is the launch of Cardiff City Supporters Trust this Thursday (September 4th, 2008).

There are other events with former Cardiff City stars Andy Legg, Phil 'Joe' Dwyer and Jason Perry taking part in a Question Time-style session along with former Premiership referee Keith Cooper.
Also present and taking part are Actor/TV presenter Jonathan Owen (who will also present his film on what it means to be a Cardiff City supporter), Wales Online Cardiff City football reporter Steve Tucker with BBC Wales sports presenter and journalist Rob Phillips keeping order as chair.The key business will be forming the Trust and representatives from Supporters Direct, the government backed group which provided practical support to help establish the Trust will be there to do exactly that. The Football Association has also agreed that the FA Cup will be at the event. Supporters will able to take photographs alongside the famous trophy between 6pm and 7pm. There may also be other opportunities during the evening to take photographs.
