And this is why hes divided the fans , his target audience is the fans who live in Cardiff , this is why we should be blue. His target audience wont give a shit what colour we play in over there , all the fans over there support a team on success (hence Liverpool,Chelsea, Man Utd , Man City being well supported over there ). If we played in blue and suddenly become a force in the prem (all hypothetical) they would still support us because of success, guaranteed. This is why the re brand pisses me off it's pointless and its hurt a lot of fans of this club including me. :!:

I agree, except he sees it as a businessman. There's a whole untapped markt in the Far East with investors aplenty. He puts the club on the stock market and people will be all over it, especially with the club in their precious red. But like you said, that's what is so infuriating. He's shitting on the actual fans just to cater to the Far Eastern businessmen. Good business, terrible morals.

Red is also the Chinese Communist party, but he wouldn't mention that in a democratic country.

Jinks, no its a Yes, but I believe there is no such thing as LUCK to do with a colour, you make your own luck in life.
I believe its for China and some of his and their beliefs, I honestly think he believes in it all, but of course h is here to make money out of Cardiff.

Well i hope your wrong because to rebrand a club just because he likes red is pretty crap. I can tolerate it for good reasons but if not i want the blue back

Re: VINCENT TANS LUCKY RED QUOTE

Tue Jun 04, 2013 6:28 pm

Nope.

The rebrand was to grow the CCFC brand and to grow his own pockets.

The 'lucky red' talk is just his way of putting a more romantic light on it. Which doesn't work. I think most fans would prefer he just come out and say it's about the money.

Re: VINCENT TANS LUCKY RED QUOTE

Tue Jun 04, 2013 6:46 pm

No idea whether its lucky or not, I just think something is lost in translation and don't really understand his way of thinking.

Whatever he is up to we are stuck with it for now but one day we will return to blue. Dead raving certainty IMO.

Yes. I've seen enough interviews with Tan to know that he's that stupid.

In his beliefs.

"The bluebird was frightened by other symbols and needs to be protected by the dragon"; if you don't think that's ridiculous then there's no hope for you.

I agree totally, VT tends to speak figuratively/metaphorically and this has probably caused confusion.
