This feeling continues to this day. Nobody wants to rock the tan/red boat because of the trappings that come with Tans reign. its truly truly shocking, especially when you have the likes of wez and soulofthesea suggesting that we are somehow jealous of Tan![]()
Trust me, there are reds spewing out of your club and its as plain as day. Take the cash away and its pretty much all blue - no argument there. However with red DOES come loans, and its a money hungry faux success driven fanbase - has been for over a decade. Its insatiable... And that is why you are getting people picking red.
I appreciate you love the sound of your own voice,which unfortunately for those of us here, seems to be the driving force behind most of your posts.However, I can't see how you can comment on what the people/supporters on the ground are feeling with regard to red or blue in and around the city, from 10,000 miles away (alledgedly).
I do understand that spending up to 16 hours a day on a Cardiff City forum and maybe Wales online, with a shot of the BBC thrown in for good measure, may fool you into thinking that you have your finger on the pulse of the city![]()
I think you'd actually have to be here to understsnd fully the feeling of the place...................hmmmm.

I very much have the finger on the pulse. I own a business and houses there, it is my adult hometown. I know many many people in and around the city and know exactly the score. Where I am now (allegedly) is irrelevant.
Again, not sure how many times I have to say this, the internet is not a physical place and can be accessed from anywhere and not sat at the computer staring at a screenyou are my entertainment as im working online

the poll hasnt swung red at all though. it was 10-10 at the start, since then its been natural one way traffic, up to the point, and percentage that was seen from the wales online poll

85% of members here want CCFC to wear blue.
Yet the only poll you want to take into consideration is the one that has been hijacked (with proof of it being hijacked) by Swansea fans to read that the majority want red?
3 sources and you want to take the least "fair" one... ie. the one that has been open to fixing by rival fans, with proof of this happening. Genuinely don't understand it.

It was 65% red at one point, and when it was then it was "the jacks". When the poll was 65% on wales online it was "the jacks".
As soon as its blue then "thats now correct"![]()
Surely you can see how ridiculous that is?

Its just guesswork to fit a story.
Couldnt I say pro blues were voting loads of times and hijacking it which is why it was 85%?

its not guess work though, as im led to believe the link was posted on the swansea forum at that time, and around twitter with people commenting on sabotaging the vote.
Now i dont go on the swansea board so i havent seen it for myself, but several people have mentioned that it happened, and if so, then it was clearly hi-jacked

Absolutely. There's even a thread about it on Planet Swans which show they were on the wind up.

Spot on..........I haven't read all the threads on here as I haven't got a couple of hours to read the same things over and over again. It's obvious the poll was hiJACKed. Polls, at least those where you can only vote the once, tend to follow patterns. They don't just suddenly swing from one side to another, so overwhelmingly and in such a small time frame. The fact that it happened at the same time as the Jacks got wind of it, says it all. Robert Mugabe or Putin would have been proud of that poll, as Roathie knows all too well
I suppose the reason Cardiff fans didn't sit in front of a screen all day, is because they've got lives to lead
.
BTW....Why do you support Swansea if Cardiff is your home town??
