Had a quick look and the internet domains for cardiff dragons are either taken or available. The ones that are taken don't appear to have any link to the club that I can see. I would have thought if they were planning this they would have bought them in advance. Maybe not as much truth to the whole of this rumour as people think although some of it may be true.

As the great Brian Clarke once said "It doesn't really matter what name they're called or what colours they wear as long as he can give the fans some success at last,"


It was always Sams big idea to have one team supporting all of wages and like you said to change all that is being suggested now. He did change the badge but he soon realised that he had little support on the matter and didnt make the changes. Lets hope Tan does the same.

Stop f*cking moaning, Daya got it spot on, if Tan starts splashing cash no one will give a f**k.

It will always be Cardiff City end of, f**k me years back we nearly went out of buisness, Borley again saved us with the Tan

Lets see what happens... Give Tan credit, he is paying for the club every month, no one else has any money!!

The fans have to be consulted on this. I'd be disappointed if it was done without any consultation. I suspect once they know the true feelings of the fans, they'll think a bit harder on this one.

Does he not realise that all would happen is thousands of fans would wear replica blue shirts which would be counter productive to his perceived lucky red colour.

The uproar this would cause if they try to change our colour and our Name, We are the BLUEBIRDS and whatever they think i think it would be disaterous for The club and fan base, as much good as they have brought us, they can kiss it. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I've a 20ft x 10ft red & white flag with Clydebank & Cardiff City splashed accross it - great news for us :D










In all seriousness though, while somethings change, I don't see why they would want to change the clubs colours. Has there been anything official on it yet though?

Is there any kind of rules and regs about changing the name of a club?



In Scotland there certainly is. Registered name & colour changes up here have to be approved by the SFL.

Does anyone actually believe that VT is going to go to the expense of changing every seat in the stadium because his favourite colour is red :lol:

Im trying to think of a club that has been promoted to the Prem that wears red, anyone........?

My initial reaction is anger at the thought of changing our colours because someone thinks it is a lucky colour.

We must wait for the club to announce something before we can fully understand the plans the Malaysians have.

I said only weeks ago that there would be a total overhaul of the club this summer and a restructuring of it too but not once was it ever mentioned of changing our identity as we know it.

I have been told Vincent Tan wants to change 26,000 seats to the colour Red, our home kit to Red, the Bluebirds to go,our badge to change totally and our stadium eventually to become Red.
I have also been told that many people within the club have advised VT not to do this.
Apparently Red is VT favourite colour and Red is VT lucky colour and he believes Blue will never get us promoted, I can only tell you want is being said.
An Announcement will being coming soon.


We are meeting the Club tonight to discuss it all.


Carl - what time is the meeting tonight?

Yeah I guess as long as they don't change the home color I'll be happy.
