He is starting to change things for the better, let's just all move forward rather than keep bringing the re-brand up at every opportunity. It is our history, not a good time for many but something we will always remember.

Really pleased to hear this news it will make our home more complete. Well done again to the club. Amendments are being made. Annis I am sure burning scarfs outside the Stadium was tongue in cheek but send them to charity abroad is good suggetsion.

Brilliant news about the seats.
Now if we can just have our proper pre-rebrand badge back, I'll be well satisfied.

They certainly make the stadium look unique and considering we are now the home of Welsh football it doesn't seem too out of place. Maybe if the Ayatollah design was changed to Cymru/Wales it would look better.
I also think that its a good reminder to how much happened in the 2.5 years that we were red and the issues that the fans and club faced and no matter your views the rebrand is one of the biggest parts of our history

As I said though that's just my opinion and I'm not against the seats being changed at all


No prefer the Ayatollah! Its unique and its our own identity. It was one of the better Tan ideas.

Much better!


The red seats simply look out of place - but lets get rid of the Ayatollah too!


and the anti English chants particularly as a lot of our team and management are English.



I can't tell if you two are being sarcastic but I hope so

As much as I want this to be true, I have a question why does it have to wait until the summer ?

The stand is not open during Cardiff City games so if this was happening why wouldn't it be done now ?

As I say, I hope it's true :bluescarf:

Carl,

If it's true, Tan/Dalman and Choo will have decided why, or even Wayne Nash.

Much as I hate the red seats should Ccfc be spending a fortune replacing them. Wouldn't it be better to
Swap seats around so that there are small blocks of red in each corner with the ninian stand being all blue.

This is going to cost Jules (Luton Bluebird) a fortune in new blue lego blocks.

take the seats out of the Canton and put them up there.
then safe standing in the canton. kills 2 birds with 1 stone then

or for the older ones put a big captain morgan rum sign up there and petition it off. same as the roof on the old bob bank

Exciting times and as said before Tans making some good moves for our club. I always wished that we could have the yellow back on the kit too? Perhaps that pushing it too far but not going to complain with the current situation as for the first time in a while things are looking up!

Think it would look brilliant if we could have the top tier seats as the st davids flag design.

This is a brilliant idea, or the welsh flag, that way they could use some of the red seats and reduce the cost of changing the seats.

Nothing to do with the rebrand it just makes the ground stand out over other modern stadiums with the same design like reading


The red seats above the blue looks f*cking terrible.

Would brand new blue seats above faded old ones look any better . It may not look bad now but when you add new we will end up with a two tone stadium . Thay will never match up the colours without replacing the whole ground . A feature would be better

Yes blue would be better. Red was nothing but bad for the club and need to be eradicated from our history. Before you mention our away kit. Other clubs don't have away colours as stadium seats.

Like you I don't know if this is true but the reason why they would wait until the end of the season is pretty easy to explain I would have thought.

Contractors having a "clean" site is always quicker and , subsequently, cheaper. Therefore if they wait for the end of the season they won't have all the H&S issues around access to the ground, completely clearing up afterwards, storage of new seats, etc.

Just my opinion and no inside knowledge !!

That's total crap. We had 15 flourescent light fittings changed in the factory the other day by contractors while we carried on with our work directly underneath them.
