The 1976–77 season was Cardiff City F.C.'s 50th season in the Football League. They competed in the 22-team Division Two, then the second tier of English football, finishing eighteenth.

The season also saw the arrival of Robin Friday who, although it would be his only full season at the club, made such an impression that he was voted as the club's all-time cult hero.
