Cardiff City announce Ninian Stand extension closure

Cardiff City have announced that the upper tier extension of the Ninian Stand will be closed for club matches next season, less than a year after it was built.

The Bluebirds have struggled back in the Championship this season after relegation from the Premier League, leading to poor season-ticket sales ahead of next term.

Supporters who have bought seats in the upper tier will be offered a move elsewhere.

The Welsh national team will continue to use the stadium for their Euro 2016 qualifiers and the extension will be available for their remaining home qualifiers.
