THE NEW KIT

Tue Jun 21, 2011 8:55 pm

As much as I think the use of Malaysia on the shirt will strengthen our links in the Far East, I would like to know if the Welsh Badge still appears on our shirt anywhere ?

Of course it matters Luke, we have an identity that I for one hope we can keep.

I stand to be corrected but I think the Cardiff Kit only had the Welsh Flag on it since around 2003.

Prior to SH coming, I dont think it ever did, not in my memory anyway.

It was certainly a feature brought in by Sam, that was something that Sam wanted to give us and that was identity, so much so that he changed the badge to the St David's cross, not something I agreed with but understood the reasons.

Carl, I was actually against Sam changing our Badge and told him so, Ridsdale at least changed it back, Sam let me down on that one :lol:

I didnt agree with it either Carl, the Welsh Badges on the shirt was a nice idea and something that like yourself I hope continues. I hated it when he changed the badge though, we allready had an identity. That said, Iv got a lot of time for Sam Hammam for personal reasons, he did something for me that NO other Football Chairman in the country would have done and for that I can forgive him the badge change.. :ayatollah:

Sans idea was one team behind Wales (we all knew it wouldn't happen) but that was Sams plan.

Like I said I would like the welsh badge, will I lose sleep over it? No.
I'd look at the shirt and think oh it hasn't got the Wales badge on it... Gutted and over it within seconds, maybe fire off an email with my opinion.

I'm here to support Cardiff city, we have a dragon on our crest, that's good enough.

I think it will have a Wales Flag on the side little tab thing like normal, because it was my understanding that all puma kits did that, like Spurs kit had an English flag tab on the side etc. Besides i'm sure someone in the PR team would have seen that minefield anyway.

How? We still have a club thanks to foreign owners?

Have you ever sat at CCS and thought 3-0 win don't see write because of a sponsor? Or because we may or may not have a welsh badge on it?.... ??
What is a clubs identity? It's the fans... And we are still hear, wearing blue, with our club crest... We are Cardiff city more than ever.....

We are Cardiff city moving forward with malaysian thinks..... IMO that's better than trying to be Cardiff city "one Wales" as that to me just showed lack of realism.

I agree with you, would be nice but not essential ????

If it's not maybe they can get them added from now on ???

ps I really like the look of the kit from the photos, it looks like the best one for ages :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

a f*cking good birching IMO but Mrs B said the Joma kit was a much better material, and the quality was better, must of been done by 7 year olds :D :D

Baker started a thread on the other board yesterday saying that, he had heard that Cardiff and Swansea aren't having the Welsh flag on the kit like many seasons before due to us now being ruled by the English FA.

Re: THE NEW KIT

I will be very disappointed if the Welsh badge is nowhere on the shirt. It's part of our culture.

Is this all building up to the fact that the new Swans kit doesn't have it? Or am I just being cynical?
