Malaysian Newspaer and VT's Plan

http://thestar.com.my/columnists/story. ... In%20China

this is a newspaper article from Malaysia, it simply says that Vincent Tan has invested in creating 'the Worlds largest Shopping Mall' in China... maybe this is where he is going to sell our shirts, he'll have loads of major links to the shopping industry in China and tap into the market there!

we sell to a maxium of 3 million people over here (not even that), while there are a billion people over there, i think this is his plan, just what i think! you 'go changing the colour and icon of a club and putting millions into it just for a laugh!

He's talking about the population of Wales.

As has been said before we will probably sell to about 0.01% or 0.1% of the chinese population. We get approx. 10 pound per shirt sold. That means we will earn 10 million a year which is hardly anything to cover our loses

Looks like an impressive build and could defo sell a lot of shirts there!

you got to consider other asian countries aswell, and they probably wouldn't sell just shirts over there!

The only other asian countries that will take interest are Malaysia. Cannot see any of the other asian countries being interested. Population of malaysia is around 29 million. As its owned by a malaysian club say 1% of population will buy the kit thats only 290000 kits sold a year so only bringing in an extra few million a year. This deal isnt to do mainly with shirt sales its never going to be a feasable argument for it. It is all to do with gaining extra investors into the club from the chinese market

there's probably other opportunities in this but that's the one which is obvious! there might be deals being drawn up to broadcast Cardiff games in China and Malaysia as VT own shares in TV Companies, but we don't know! just got to wait and see what they do and what the Bank Accounts show up

I wonder if we will have a Cardiff City store in there.

Do you stand in the Canton behind the goals?

This is the thing its alot of what ifs? the tv broadcasts I understand will bring money in but they wont watch us untill we get in the Premier League not whilst we are still playing second division football. The only thing that appeal to the asian community is SUCCESS. Until we get to the top of the premier league and in Europe they wont even look at us.

agree with that but maybe pre season tours to the area would help? i mean playing little clubs around the UK isn't bringing in much money, i know us fans (well i do) love those little trips but imagine the publicity the club got by playing teams in Malaysia and China?

The reason I think they havent done it now is because they know they wont get a great turn out not until we reach the premier league. Hopefully next season eh

this whole fiasco is pretty much setting us up for the future, might not see all the benefits this season but when we reach the prem all the things will fit into plan!... it's always next season for us

Unfortunatly WHEN is a key word there is no guarantee that we will get there playing in red

Seems like when he goes for something he really goes for it.

that's a proper business man for you, they want the biggest and the best! hopefully thats what he wants for us

Unfortunatly WHEN is a key word there is no guarantee that we will get there playing in red

we weren't guaranteed to get there in Blue tbh, it's a no win situation (except he's pissed off alot of fans by doing it)

Unfortunatly WHEN is a key word there is no guarantee that we will get there playing in red

Shirt colour in the grand scheme of things makes no difference your right.
Red meant big investment (for his own reasons)
Blue meant plodding along.

Exactly Tan has taken a big risk with this lets hope it pays off

that's why we got to stick together and just carry on supporting the club, arguing and bickering with your own fans and friends is ridiculous!... just trust the decision, whether you like it or not, and just cheer on the players! you support the club, not the colour, our history is still there as our names are on the cups we have won, not the colour!
