Sorry Dudders, I respect your right to your opinion and your stance, but I can't see how you not attending any games and not buying any merchandise is going to help the club, that you say you are extremely worried about!

Make your choices and move on.
The best way to move on is to stop talking about it and plan your "new" Saturday and Tuesday evenings. Go and support your nearest amateur parks team or at 23 years old why aren't you playing !!!

[color=#4040FF]He's so worried about the existence of our club, that he willing to risk losing the proposed investment over the colour of a shirt, is it the club he loves, or the colour of a shirt the club means a lot lot more to most of us than a shirt or a poxy badge.

He's so worried he's doing his own special bit to reduce the income the club need to have a future, is that hypocritical or what.

Also went to my brothers wedding but missed the reception because City were at Bristol City and I could get to the game after the service.
I'm pro investment and there is no way I will be missing any home games and cannot get my head around this "My Only Option" mindset.
But then I again maybe I'm being a little unfair as I felt I had no option with my brother and sisters wedding, in my opinion that's how it should be with your club, bring on 18th August.

With regards the kit.
If people dont like the new one. dont buy it. Thats not making a stand, thats
just everyones right as a consumer. I will be amazed if there are huge swathes
of red in that stadium next season. If there arent, it proves Tan fucked up.
We've had some horrible kits over the years and they just didnt sell. The popular
ones did, and the Club would then generally just tweak it for the following season
to sell more.

That is amazing commitment , that I could never have gotten away with. Fair Play. But if you put yourself in his shoes , surley you have to respect the fact that he feels so strongly about the rebrand , he wants to make a stand!! just like you did by insisting you went to watch the City Play instead of going to the weddings!

Absolutely everyone has a right to make their own decisions I would never argue against that, however as I said I cannot get my head around the "My Only Option" mindset. My love of Cardiff City FC is unshakeable and I have never identified a single characteristic of the club i.e. the colour of the shirt, as such a deal breaker and that'swhat I cannot understand.
I would prefer the team to play in Blue, of course I would, but I can also be pragmatic about this whole rebranding thing. Owners, managers and players ALL come and go but the one constant at any football club are the fans.
This guy has shown great commitment supporting our club and I would ask him to reconsider and ask himself is it really the colour of the shirt that means the most to him?
There are options like joining this Keep Cardiff Blue movement, attend games and wear blue are 2 but to stop supporting the club altogether Over the top to me.
Just my opinion.

I very much agree with your view that this fella has an absolute right to make a protest by cancelling his season ticket.
However, it does annoy me a bit that he has to spout off about it in the press and next season he will be compromised when it comes to making comment on any of games, as he has now self-proclaimed himself as an exile.
I again agree with Castle that the gesture is really futile and there are better and more subtle options to express your objections to the changes made to our home kit.

I'd like to know how he's going to keep his blog going now Tony?
Do you think he'll be reliant on those attending games to write some reports for him, or do you think he'll just copy and paste any online media reports involving Cardiff City?
