Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan urges fans to be positive about oriental dragon on new badge

After returning the kit to blue, Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan says he's happy with the new badge design and calls for unity among the fans

Vincent Tan says he is keen to see the reaction of Cardiff City fans to the new club crest when it is revealed on Monday.

The club badge will be in the shape of a shield and the bluebird will have a major presence, while there is also a smaller dragon, similar to the one close to Cardiff’s City Hall, included.

“The new crest has been designed in house at Cardiff City,” said Tan. “It is very good and I am happy. The dragon this time is an Oriental dragon, while the bluebird is truly outstanding there.”

Tan was talking to the official Cardiff City Player website before he watched the home match against Wolves and he talked about the return to blue kit.

“Before Christmas, my mother said it was not a good idea to keep talking about the kit and that I should do something about it,” said Tan. “We are back in blue and I hope the changes are for the better.

“We must all be positive and that positivity will be a help to the team.”


Tan now owns Cardiff City and FK Sarajevo, while he has a major interested in Los Angeles FC.

“I enjoy investing in all three clubs,” said Tan. “I am pleased with Cardiff city’s form. We have improved a lot in terms of performances and results.

“We beat Wigan and that was excellent. I am happy with what the team are doing.

“I talked to Aron Gunnarsson and congratulated him on his excellent goal against Wigan, while I also talked to David Marshall, Peter Whittingham and all the players.

“My words to them were that I am confident they can do well and we will be in good shape.

“Hopefully, we will be back in the Premier League in the near future.

“It’s good to be back in Cardiff. I have been busy in Malaysia and Asia, but I watch all matches on live stream.


“I also talk to the chairman (Mehmet Dalman) on an almost daily basis and our chief executive Ken Choo). There is never a time when I am not very aware what is going on at Cardiff City.

“I am happy with my investment in Sarajevo. They are second in the league and hopefully can win the trophy.

“In terms of LA, my Asian partners and I have bought into the franchise. We own 80 per cent and Americans own 20 per cent.”

I'm not HAPPY I could handdle the last badge as it was a Welsh Dragon and its been in our kit for donkey years but a orinental Dragon is taking the Piss we are Welsh not f*cking Chinese !

I agree but I'll wait to see it before I judge it. Can't understand how an oriental dragon can be like ed to the one on city hall, which is a welsh dragon??

Ah well, we'll see soon enough

The Dragon is so small its not worth getting upset about - its probably smaller than any smilie on here

Whar if tan is bought out by a differnt nationality owner, do we then have to add something from their culture? Where do we stop? What if a country that has an affiliation with pineapple's, coconuts and bananas? Shall add I pins colada to our logo for to massage their ego? Give us back a CARDIFF CITY badge. I couldn't give a shit about anybody else's culture. My only culture is Cardiff city.

Im not concerned about the dragon either way. As long as its not conspicuous and the bluebird is prominent, I'm happy.

As long as the Bluebird is the main, dominant emblem on our new badge, I have no problem with a little oriental dragon going with it. I will forever hate Tan for the rebrand, but those kicking up a fuss over the oriental dragon are being very unreasonable imo. We are back in blue and it looks like the Bluebird will be back as our main emblem. What more do you all want?

Want everything but give nothing in return probably!

The current badge embarrasses me every time I see in the media or programmes, merchandise etc. whatever this new crest looks like it's got to be a improvement for the moral of the fans and everyone connected to the club than the abomination beer mat that the rebrand forced on us as our public image. Oriental dragon sounds a cheesy hope it does resemble the Welsh Dragon and not let the rest of the badge down.

this is all about Tan's ego. Don't see any other football team in the league with their owners culture incorporated into the club crest. I will wait and see what it's like before I judge it properly but by sound of it I don't think I'll like it

this is all about Tan's ego. Don't see any other football team in the league with their owners culture incorporated into the club crest. I will wait and see what it's like before I judge it properly but by sound of it I don't think I'll like it

If this was all about Tan's ego, we would still be playing in red with this horrendous beer mat badge. Tan has gone back on his ridiculous rebrand and giving us a new badge with the Bluebird as the main, prominent, dominant symbol. We can't ask for any more.

A clubs crest should represent things about the club and city or town its plays in not where the bloody owner comes from. An oriental dragon ffs. I don't see any other clubs with foreign owners having things from their culture put on the clubs crest. Man City are owned by Arabs, do they have a picture of a woman being stoned to death on their badge ? No

I had the dubious honour of calling the present badge 'The Beermat' when the monstrosity was first unveiled. I hope I'm not calling the new one 'The Happy Gathering Menu' on Monday.

If its not a welsh dragon be can stick it up his arse. We should not accept anything less.

Isnt the only difference is the way tail is pointed? welsh one points up! oriental one points down? A dragon is a dragon in looks surely??

My dream is be rich enough to own the club, then I can replace thedragon with a zinger burger as I really like them umm

Isnt the only difference is the way tail is pointed? welsh one points up! oriental one points down? A dragon is a dragon in looks surely??

ok looked at both now mmm if like city hall dragon no problem, if chinese dragon well different completely ! Maybe tan as got dragons mixed up?

I don't see any other clubs with foreign owners having things from their culture put on the clubs crest.

Absolutely correct the FA still doing F All to protect the heratige of football clubs

this is all about Tan's ego. Don't see any other football team in the league with their owners culture incorporated into the club crest. I will wait and see what it's like before I judge it properly but by sound of it I don't think I'll like it

It is about his ego as I said in my OP , Tan is the only owner in the football league to put something of his culture on a football teams badge which has been around for over 100 years. Do you see Abromiovich (SP) put anything Russian on Chelsea badge , Venkys put anything of their culture on Blackburn badge , Leeds owner putting anything Italian on theirs, I could go on but not 1 owner has done this . Tan is the only owner who wants something to do with him on the badge and it's wrong the badge should be about representing Cardiff's history and Culture not a mans ego trip

Can't see how we can possibly comment on it one way or the other until we see the thing. No point in deciding in advance that you like or dislike something. Better to give an honest opinion once we are able to have a look at it.

A clubs crest should represent things about the club and city or town its plays in not where the bloody owner comes from. An oriental dragon ffs. I don't see any other clubs with foreign owners having things from their culture put on the clubs crest.

Spot on, that last bit made me laugh

I don't think it's tans ego it's the club licking his Ass ,I wonder what the other designs were like ?

It could be worse, we could be playing in red!!

I don't think it's tans ego it's the club licking his Ass ,I wonder what the other designs were like ?

Maybe , either way still should be a Welsh Dragon not a Malaysian Dragon.

Apparently people are saying its the design of the dragon outside City Hall if that's the case then I take back what I said as that's a Welsh Dragon just in different pose

Well bloody release it then so we can see it ffs, what's the holdup
