Family stand for me, looking at an empty stand of red seats.

As a stand, it looks very impressive, just a shake about the seat design and colour for me. :bluescarf:

I notice that the lower tier has had the seats by the last 'F' put back now, though there is a block of white seats by it that look like a full stop!

It looks shite with those red seats.Are they realy going to call it the white Elefant stand.And those ayatollas are an insult to the vast majority of our supporters.Tan is a spoiled tw*t who must always have his own way.Time to drive him out. :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :old:

Red seats in a Cardiff City stadium, people who back it should be ashamed.

Ayatollah on red seating is an insult, red seating is an insult, the fact that Tan goes ahead with this is a massive two fingers to the REAL Cardiff City yet still people kiss his disrespectful f.ucking ass. I give up.

Never mind.

Maybe you'll appreciate the fine lines and engineering design then. :geek: :ugeek:

Yeah he lost me there as well..

If Tan was not involved and our owner introduced a new tier with blue seats designed like that I don't think many would consider it an insult.

I don't see the ayatollah as an insult at all. What I do see as an insult is the club using it to show the bond between the club and supporters (or whatever PR speak Borley used to describe it!)

Re: ' Today at the CCS - the new stand '

The stand as a whole is very very impressive, but just, the colour :cry: :ayatollah:

Re: ' Today at the CCS - the new stand '

looks impressive. especially from an angle that isnt front on

Re: ' Today at the CCS - the new stand '

Wed Jul 09, 2014 1:03 pm

I hate the red as much as the next man

but I honestly think having a different colour tier makes our stadium look more interesting rather than just having a wall of blue

Re: ' Today at the CCS - the new stand '

Wed Jul 09, 2014 1:19 pm

i love the colour red with blue.. it looks great as a spanish kit...buttttttttttttttt we are cardiff city and we will always be blue

Looks great!!!!

Looks absolutely hideous. The past 2 seasons has felt less like I've been watching my team in Tan's horrendous red. Scarfgate was the night I felt like an away fan in my own stadium, I felt I didn't belong there anymore and this season, it will also feel less like our stadium with those red seats. The fact our ayatollah has been hijacked and put onto the red seats rubs it in further for me. The ayatollah will always resemble the Cardiff City BLUEbirds, not Tan's red dragons. Our club is a joke, our stand is a joke, our owner is a joke and I'm not sure how much more I can take. :(

I might stop going to home games. Going to away games, it still feels we are all supporting our club, dressed in blue, singing blue songs, the fans passionately uniting together as one. Home games in contrast feels like supporting a completely different club with completely different fans who I struggle to connect with. I have no respect for any fan sitting in that new stand as they are endorsing Tan's red seats and are willingly allowing the tradition and identity of our football club to die.

Sorry due to the seat colour looks like someone has borrowed a stand from another football club ,seats should be blue ,Cardiff should be blue!. I grew up with us being black and white and you being blue ,its just wrong.

Re: ' Today at the CCS - the new stand '

It has been mentioned in other threads since the stand has taken shape about the view from the rear corners, judging by this photograph I'd say that those corners will not be able to see the goal!? I've also noticed that for the Super Cup there were tickets being advertised as a restricted view.... not aware of any seats in the old style stadium that had such a problem!? :?:
