The campaign for a return to blue is gathering pace and is getting good coverage but we must keep the campaign going.

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=151883




1. Hit the Media

Vincent Tan needs to be reminded at every opportunity that we are Blue and proud Bluebirds, a way to get this message across is to keep it going through the media.

Local media, national and international press, we have to keep the message going strong and the more we push the campaign the more Vincent Tan will see it, whilst he is not turning up at the stadium he will see very little so let's take the message to Tan.

Write to the press, get your message out there and the press will print it, keep it on the right side of decent and flood them.

Tan doesn't want his ego injured.



2. Contact the Club

Let the club know through letters and emails that you want to see the colours restored, keep the campaign going and let the club and Vincent Tan know this is not 5% of the support.



3. Banners and flags

Take banners and flags into the stadium, display your message that you want to see a return to blue, make sure there is nothing offensive or derogatory on you banner, make sure it is not on a stick that could be suggested it is a weapon.



4. Occupy

Vincent Tan is not attending games, why ?

Is Tan too embarrassed to attend, here we have the largest shareholder that wants to be seen on TV and in the press but doesn't show at the stadium.

We are occupying the ground, we must keep the Blue flying in the stadium.

We must choose our battle carefully and not enter a battle we are unlikely to win.

By not being in the ground it won't hurt Tan financially, the money he would lose wouldn't cover the wages of our highest earning player, not being in the ground takes the protest away from the one place Tan does not visit.

If we walk away from the stadium, we walk away from the protest, the more we keep the blue in the stadium the more we keep the blue alive.

" TAN OUT "

I have thought hard about Not Renewing and in many ways I dont want to.

But after all these years,I would find it so hard to just stop.

I dont enjoy going down there, in fact I have started to really dislike going.

I asked my daughter who has had a season ticket for 10 years and she said,what would we do with out Cardiff City? I said we could just go to away games,at this moment in time I honestly really dont know what to do,City are a big part of my life :

on your last point i disagree carl by not renewing and not going to games your not supporting tan, the way i see it is if you renew next season your giving him the nod to do what he likes no amount of blue will change that inside the ccs as he will do what he wants. Thats my opinion of it anyway and his latest xmas stunt interview basically tells me he dont give a shit about fans
I wouldnt go to tesco and moan about the rubber breckie they serve up then ask for extra bacon

A plethora of TAN OUT banners would get the message across in one fell swoop !

Excellent post, Carl. Agree 100%.

A plethora of TAN OUT banners would get the message across in one fell swoop !

Thats what its got to be all this pussy footing about with we want blue back when in truth we aint getting it while hes here and as he even stated that xmas day so it needs ramping up imo

Ian,

The point is you walk away and all us like minded people do the same, who are we leaving in the stadium ?

It will leave Tan and those who don't care for the identity.

Then he will go unchallenged and do what he likes.

Hes doing what he likes anyway thats just it as proven even with a FULL stadium of blue many times last season

I think we need vocal support in the stadium. We need to show some passion. We could adopt the old chelsea song flying high!

Flying high up in the sky, we keep the blue flag flying high
From ninian park to wembley we'll keep the blue flag flying high. Bluebirds!

Bit controversial but a great song and keeping the blue flag flying high is exactly what we have to do.

I disagree Carl.
The stadium will be Bluer than ever due to empty seats for a start but how embarrassing for the Club (Tan) to have an empty ground.
Tan said in his interview that he wants fans to support the team so let's (for once) go against him.
Protesting in Blue has failed and will continue to do so if fans keep turning up.
Time for proper action, and the most simple

Hear hear pal hear f*cking hear lining his pockets with your season ticket money next season then moaning about what your given for it will only make tan laugh at us even more. To me it makes us look like complete idiots but thats my opinion

Uh?

Personally I feel the argument about filling Tans pockets is a sign of accepting his re-brand is not at all strong.

If I boycotted Tan would not miss my money one bit. So giving him a few pennies to keep the stadium proper blue is a price worth paying. I know Tan hates seeing the blue in his own back yard and he would be quite happy having crowds of around 10,000 wearing predominant red.

Disagree carl. Tan is a business man and works on figures. Keep the stadium full and the business is still ticking over nicely in tans eyes.
If its empty that will make him think twice and make him realise that fans do not support the rebrand like he thinks. Less tickets sold means a less succesful business.

Where would 10,000 red wearers come from?
It's not about hitting him financially, but that has a bigger knock on effect than you think.
It's about principal.
Empty seats will be extremely powerful.
We've done the other protests to death and they have failed, miserably.
My opinion of course

Agreed with most of that apart from the last one which can be seen both ways. One is what you say you can't protest if you aren't there. But at the moment no one wants to protest in the ground. Second its a visual a near empty ground. And the most importantly if Vinny tw*t sees that a fair amount has renewed after what has been said recently then he will see that as a backing for his re brand. A report in the papers saying X amount hasn't renewed then that will be a slap in the face to him.
But to me if we started doing well our fans will turn again not wanting to protest because it might effect the team ETC.
To me we got the rest of the season to protest and make a right nuisance of our selfs but after this season I will not go into the CCS until we are blue again.

I've already boycotted but Amen!

Tell you what as soon as we start winning they will comeback. That's the risk of boycotting.

Sorry i care about club and its identity but will be renewing again next year. Been going since end of 60's and we've had many shit owners before and no doubt will again - Sam used to make me cringe with some of the things he did but did not walk away from club then and will not now

10,000? There was never that many when in the Premier League.
The Red is DEAD, you may see a few floating about and when 1000's fail to renew (this will happen) they'll be replaced by BLUE seats.
It's been dead all season at the CCS, that includes the period we won 5 at home on the trot.

Doesnt take a scientist to know this

Ive been telling you this for months

There was a waiting list when we were in the premier. Don't underestimate it. What made the red dead was the blue live spirit at CCS. Take that away and it could quite easily be a different story.

Ian,

The point is you walk away and all us like minded people do the same, who are we leaving in the stadium ?

It will leave Tan and those who don't care for the identity.

Then he will go unchallenged and do what he likes.

You can still go to games and demonstrate, however by renewing a season ticket you are pledging loyalty and you are supporting the regime unconditionally, supporters now need to think long and hard about exactly what they believe in

Carl the only way this battle can be won, is if everybody refuses to renew when the club wants you to renew.

Tan will panic because he will be seen in Malaysia and the rest of Asia to have failed.

The World's media will have a field day with him and he knows it.
The thought of an empty stadium in August will be enough.

Take the short term pain for long term gain anything less and Tan will laugh in your face.

By coming out with the statement on Christmas Day it is obvious that Tan thinks City fans are thick and will not take action.

For people who have gone for years it will be hard but it is the only way.
To people who say, nobody is telling me not to go to watch a match, I support the return to Blue and will take part in all the protests I will say this.
Do you honestly think that Tan will take any notice of protests?

But Tan knows that he will lose face if there is a boycott of season tickets.

The choice is yours.

For the record I dont judge people on their opinions and respect everybodies opinions.

We didn't sell out every game last season though.
Scenerio's.
- Keep going, Tan likes this and keeps us Red. No change, forever divided, forever moaning
- Stop going, Club could get promoted. We stay red and get replaced by huge waiting list of red wearing Tan lovers.
- Stop going, Club is still struggling in Champ'. Tan loses interest and embarrassed by poor side, no fans and low income. He sells up and leaves. Fans are happy again.

All hypothetical but as i've said, we've done the first scenario and it will roll on and on

complete farce of a post by carl. Carl answer me this has vincent tan listened and taken the slight bit of notice of a blue stadium so far?
NO HE TOLD EVERYONE CHRISTMAS DAY THAT! IT ISNT WORKING ARE YOU REALLY THAT STUPID!?

Liverpool game at home, the biggest Blue protest so far, looked amazing. Tan didn't react to any of it.
Do fans now think a game against Rotherham next season will finally change his mind?!?
