'There's no welshness in the ground'


'Puts some big fat ass poster saying WALES' on it and people moan.

Jesus Christ, will always be the Canton to everyone else

why would anyone not call it the Canton? just cos a sponsor has come in doesn't mean we have to say its the croeso stand

Gavin Chid Jeffreys So our badge has been changed ,our colours have been changed,our stand names have been changed, it's matter of time before cardiff city fc will be renamed along with the stadium, shame he didn't spend all this on players & player development instead of this shocking attempt to rebrand us.


THAT IS MY FAVOURITE :lol:

So to get all those quotes then you must be a member of the Bluebirds Unite facebook group yet you are a supporter of the rebrand!!! You got more faces than a Pandy clock!!!! :lol:

Re: The Croeso stand is official then

I thought we were all aware that when sponsorship came along the stands and the stadium would change accordingly, isn't that pretty much what happens at most clubs.

Re: The Croeso stand is official then

Wed Jul 10, 2013 1:25 pm

Its a visit wales sign so of course its going to be red, f*cking muppets. And as for being the welcome stand who cares the only ones that its targeted at wont even know what croeso means for christ sake. Itll always be the Canton stand so who cares. at least it means more welsh sponsorship down there :ayatollah:

Exactly, if we had gone up in Blue it would still be the exact same sponsoring anyway and as one of the jacks pointed out before they had the same sponsoring when they got promoted

Is all that from the Bluebirds Unite Facebook Page? If so, I think I can safely say, on the whole, they are a bunch of illl educated fuckwits.

Do they not know the difference between rebranding and sponsorship? Their views are not helping our cause whatsoever. Get on message with the very good message being put out by the group and stop making it look idiotic with childish remarks that have nothing to do with rebranding.

you can call it whatever you want as long as youve got the money

if I was a millionaire I could call the stand 'adam brown is a c**t' stand its up to the sponsors stop scaremongeing

Re: The Croeso stand is official then

Wed Jul 10, 2013 2:27 pm

just wondering how much money the tourist board has to sponsor a stand and whether Wales will think it's a good use of public money.
