Bluebird Heaven tells the story of a rollercoaster decade at Cardiff City, when the football club experienced everything from cup finals and promotion to financial turmoil and damaging controversy. It was a period when Bluebirds fans experienced their wildest dreams coming true and their worst nightmares becoming reality. The club grabbed English football's attention for the first time in years when they defied the odds to reach the FA Cup Final in 2008, then continued over the following years as a fount of back-page headlines. The Bluebirds moved to a new home, attempting to rebuild themselves as a top-flight club and shed their notorious reputation off the pitch. But a club enriched by history was torn apart by the threat of a sweeping rebrand. Relive the drama of this extraordinary decade. Move behind the scenes to discover how a series of disastrous decisions left the club on its knees - and how inspirational figures managed to save the club in its darkest hours.

Jamie Kemble is a football journalist and proprietor of the website Inside Wales Sport, whose work has been published in a number of newspapers and online publications. Jamie has experienced all of Cardiff City's highs and lows as a lifelong supporter of the club.
