All these fans.......

that say they would rather go back to the basement of football....... Where were they then?

I know that some fans genuinely were there, but there seems to be a lot on here, ccmb, facebook etc saying that would rather go back. I know of some on my Facebook saying it and they were never there in the first place.

See its insulting statements like that which is why the divide is happening.

One questions that I've asked every Anti-red, what are the alternatives???? provide me with a sustainable and realistic business plan should you oust the Malaysian backers???

Do that and Ill sign up... but not one fan has come back with a acceptable answer.

d20, i read most posts and to be fair, most things put down by you are fair.

My only answer would be, the Malaysians are very smart in there country and know there own marketplace, they know how the Asian and Malaysian markets work. The guy is a self made billionaire who has made some truly amazing decisions.

If i used £100million of my own money and invested in a business using equity and not a loan to the company, I personally would call it what I would like.

Yes, there are a minority of fans who are not happy, so to speak. However, if the changes that have been signed off, promote Cardiff City in a way that bring not only a new fan-base but also possible income streams that will provide our club with additional funds, i think the move is genius.

Berjaya are constructing one of the biggest shopping malls in China, He has a huge chain of luxury hotels in Malaysia, he also owns the Malaysian McDonalds franchise, the guy is not stupid.

However the leak has not helped this situation at all and that the biggest problem fans have, they were not consulted and I think the club panicked. However, i don't think they had much time to put something into place.

I was about 7 to 10 years old when I used to go to NP, and I loved it :ayatollah:

Don't care whatever league we are in, PL or League 2, will still be at games
