However are there other small things we could do?
A minute's applause at 19mins 27secs every home game to celebrate our true identity might be effective.
Easy to do, non divisive, would get mentioned by the media and could happen home and away.

Certainly not enough to get enough people doing a minute applause!
Tell me what difference anyone has made from the thousands of posts/debates and protests and matches regarding the rebrand?
None what so ever!
I would love for us to play in blue but we play in red and Tan isn't going to change his mind....FACT!!
Tan is referred by many as a dictator. By definition, when have you ever known dictators to change their minds or listen to other people?

It has made a difference among the fans.
Protest v Southampton, Bluebirds Unite, everyone wearing blue at away games, v little red at home games now, pro-blue songs during games. Message boards help promote all this.

No
Did he take any notice of the protests "dont sack Mackay"
No
Has he listened to anyone about anything?
No
Will he change us back to blue?
No
Whilst I would love to see us back in blue, all these protests and ideas of "hey guys, lets try this, lets get the world watching and then he'll listen to us" is pointless and a total waste of time and it has been since the rebrand
Its all becoming a bit of a joke quite frankly.
At this moment you would have thought people would have been more concerned with getting behind the team and supporting the lads

Some fans would love to see city relegated because of the rebrand and would see it as another stick to beat vt with.I urge fans think twice before embarking on any more protests.Cardiff city need the support of every fan now more than ever to try and avoid relegation.

Barry, A simple question.....in nearly 2 years of playing in red what have the "very" limited protests achieved?
Awareness of our dislike of the situation.
Professional football is business and customer based. If one doesn't like it we always have a choice. Obv. many here will take that option (incl. a good number here) when we are in the championship. Of course if Tan walks away we can all rely on your goodself and others that we will be ok.
How long have you followed the city for exactly?

are you saying that people shouldn't go if they don't like it?!No wonder you like Tan. Since I was a young boy, over 20 years. Consistently from a 10 year old though. What has my support got to do with anything?
