Between now and the end of the season, we need to put our differences aside, and get behind the players. They didn't choose the shirt colours, the club owner or the manager. We have to accept that for what's left of the season Tan will own the club, OGS will be the manager and Malky is no longer part of Cardiff City. I think we've got enough problems on the pitch without arguing about what's going on off it.
The time to try and change things will be either at the end of the season, or if and when relegation is confirmed. I still think the club can stay up, and the supporters can play a part by creating the sort of intimidating atmosphere we used to have across the road, and encouraging players even if they are having a hard time. Only players who are not giving 100% deserve a bit of stick, as long as they are trying we shouldn't be knocking their confidence by giving out abuse. Save that for the opposition. Right now we all need to stick together, and postpone the anti Tan and the bring back blue demonstrations for a few weeks.


We did that last time then got accused of too little to late.

Just can't win.

Right enough but I think last time there was too much abuse being thrown around by BU towards those wearing red and vice versa. No harm in wanting blue back and holding marches to get the point across, but the minute it's turned into blues versus reds we are onto a loser. We should respect each others rights to hold different viewpoints, as I would imagine the way things went last time played into Tan's hands. I would consider attending a peaceful protest for return to blue, but worry about the idiots who join in looking for trouble, and I didn't think much of some of the comments directed towards the fans who chose to wear red.It's their choice to wear whatever colour they want, just in the same way I have always chosen to wear either a blue shirt or scarf. It doesn't make them less of a supporter than me, perhaps just less traditional than me. Incidentally, my first City shirt was long before sponsors names or players names appeared, just a plain shirt with the bluebird badge and a number on the back. Still got it somewhere in the attic.
