Fans are welcome to attend the Safe Standing Roadshow at the Ninian Park pub in Cardiff tomorrow at 5.30pm.
Jon Darch from the Football Supporters’ Federation will be demonstrating of how safe standing could operate and talked us through the benefits.
The event is open to all, not just Trust members.
The Supporters’ Trust welcomed new international migrants to Cardiff last season – by taking them down the City.
Now a video has been produced of the day out enjoyed by nine participants from Poland, Congo, Sudan, India and Libya who attended the Barnsley game.
The participants were filmed before and after the match to give their impressions of attending a professional football game in Wales for the first time.
They all said they would definitely be coming back to watch another game and were all given disposable cameras to record their day in the Cardiff City Stadium.
The day was part of the OPENCities project, which is exploring how international populations can contribute to a city’s success. The project is led by the British Council in partnership with 11 partner cities including Belfast, Bilbao, Bucharest, Dublin, Dusseldorf, Madrid, Nitra, Sofia, Poznan, Vienna and Cardiff.

Tim Hartley, chairman of the Trust made the following statement following the tragic death of Bluebirds fan Mikey Dye before the England v Wales game at Wembley on Tuesday night.
Tim, who was at the England-Wales match, said: “Fans are absolutely stunned. Mikey’s death is a tragedy for football and, more importantly, for his family and friends, and all Bluebirds fans are thinking of them. Mikey was well known for supporting Cardiff City and Wales at home and abroad. No one should ever fail to come home from a football match.”
We’ve also received the following email offering sincere condolences from the Swans’ Trust:
Hi Tim
I just wanted to drop you a short note to pass on the condolences of Swans Trust on behalf of all our members for the tragic and senseless loss of Mikey Day at the England v Wales game yesterday evening.
It is a sad world when someone goes to a football match to support his country and is denied the opportunity to come home in such a tragic way.
The thoughts of Swans fans everywhere are without a doubt this morning with the friends and family of Mikey and this is extended to the whole Cardiff City family who will feel sadness at the events.
Kind Regards
Phil

Stacey Hancock from the Cardiff City Stadium club 
store models the new Fred Keenor T-shirt.
The iconic image of Fred Keenor is being sold to boost the statue appeal.
The front of the T-shirt has a photograph of proud Fred holding his baby son Bryn in the FA Cup after Cardiff City had beaten Arsenal 1-0 in the 1927 final, the only time the tournament has been taken out of England.
The back of the T-shirt has the words Support the Fred Keenor Statue Appeal along with an image of the proposed statue. It costs £15 each and all profits go to the appeal.
They are being sold at the club shop and will also be on sale at the Doncaster game at the new Trust office (near Gate 5).
Appeal project manager David Craig, who is also a board member of Cardiff City Supporters’ Trust, said: “We wanted to use an iconic image for the front of the T-shirt and what better one than that of Fred and Bryn. And for the back we felt it important to include an image of what the proposed statue will look like.
“We hope that City fans will continue to show their support for the appeal by buying the T-shirt, which is of excellent quality. All profits from the sales will go towards the appeal.”
The appeal is also continuing to sell miniature statues of Fred Keenor at £40 and pin badges at £3 each in aid of the appeal.
More than £51,000 has been raised or pledged towards the cost of the statue which will be £85,000.
Llantwit Major artist Roger Andrews will create the tribute to Fred Keenor and the 1927 team. He also created the statue of Sir Tasker Watkins outside the Millennium Stadium.
