It is becoming increasingly apparent that those of us who attended the 'refund meeting' a few weeks ago are either portrayed as mischief makers or simply liars.
It is time that all fans had the opportunity to hear the truth behind the rebrand and also for fans to get their opportunity to ask questions of the Cardiff City board

I haven't seen anyone refer to those at the meeting as either, and what questions would be asked at this meeting that you didn't ask at the meeting you attended, do you expect to have different answers if you ask the same question often enough?
People are obsessed by VT's business plan, personally I don't care coz it's his business, if it don't make enough money, then he loses not us, and from what I can see, he's got enough money to take the risk and if it goes wrong then he covers it.
Football whilst it's a business, it is quite unique, possibly we are his toy, his feel good, his loved up gift to himself, I'd like to think that after that Crystal Palace game where him and TG did their loved up lap, the man wants more of it, and long may it continue.
Do you think Abramovich is in Chelsea to make money, or to feed his ego, if it is to feed his ego, I don't see too many Chelsea fans bothered either way.

We hope! look what has happened to Rangers, starting at the bottom again. There's no guarantee if the same thing happened to us we'd be let back in the English pyramid system never mind the 4th tier like Ranger are likely to get.

In terms of questions, answers around what revenue streams going red will open in the far east.Greater clarity around AWs statement thst it was never red or dead. What are the financial alternatives if we stayed blue ?Why has the debt accrued by the club reached unprecedented levels over the past 2 years? etc. The point of a public meeting will be to give all Cardiff fans the chance to really decide what is truth and what is conjecture.
If the club are able to provide substantive arguments for all of the above it could be a very good PR move for the club.

Spot on, what alternatives are there other than the change of shirt colour/badge, etc. History, tradition and identity should not be given away on the cheap. With regards to the finances how is it that the debt has spiralled out of control over the past couple of years, where is the money going? We have had an FA Cup run, Carling Cup run, regular attendance in the play offs and the spin offs from those events, the transfer budget incomings/outgoings was marginal last season and we have good attendances so why is the debt increasing so fast? I acknowledge existing debt and interest on that but the debts appear to have more than doubled in a couple of years.I believe that they are all relevant questions which deserve answers.
