Cardiff City's Robin Friday - A Rebel on the Pitch
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this photo print, we witness Cardiff City's enigmatic striker, Robin Friday, defiantly giving a two-finger salute to Luton goalkeeper Milija Aleksic after scoring his second goal at Ninian Park in April 1977. The audacious display of rebellion perfectly encapsulates the spirit of this legendary footballer. Known for his exceptional talent and tumultuous lifestyle, Friday has become a cult figure among fans and even caught the attention of renowned comedian Russell Brand. With talks of a long-awaited bio-pic about his short yet chaotic life underway, Brand is emerging as a potential candidate to portray this talented but troubled sports icon. Dubbed as the "Keith Richards of the soccer pitch". Friday had already earned notoriety during his time at Reading due to his excessive drinking and unruly behavior both on and off the field. However, upon joining Cardiff City in late 1976 under a cloud of controversy, he quickly won over Bluebirds supporters with his mesmerizing skills and unapologetic attitude. This photograph captures an iconic moment that epitomizes Robin Friday's rebellious nature and unwavering dedication to entertaining fans. As we delve into the rich history of 20th-century football, it becomes evident why he remains etched in our memories as one of football's most intriguing characters.
