FAO Sian Branson / Jon Candy

Where has he mentioned the march ?

In the first sentence.

Instead of marches, banners....

Instead of marches, banners and offensive behaviour that belittles both you, the club and even the rest of us, surely a more constructive thing to do is put your efforts into finding some other investor with deep enough pockets to buy him out. Even if you were sucessful, you'll probably find the new owner as ruthless if not more so than the present one. As for wanting "a say" in club affairs just makes me laugh. The billionaires capable of buying the club haven't got where they are by being bullied or pressured by the discontented few.
Until the day you find someone (and I hope that you do), we should all be grateful to Tan for being THE ONLY ONE who has had the balls to stump up the cash to keep the club running. People have short memories of administration or even going out of existence.

Good luck with the search. There must be a queue of people....

Typical of such posts attacking the actions of fellow fans rather than offering support. If the actions of such pro blue groups ever managed to get Tan to change us back to blue then I doubt you would even give them the credit they would deserve.

If the actions force Tan out and no buyer comes forward and the club gets asset stripped or at worse folds, would they take the blame?

I genuinely think it's disgusting and pretty pathetic the number of threads on here that are trying to associate tomorrows march as being 'anti Tan' when it isn't at all.

Of course, some will be anti-Tan, but some in the stadium will be too..doesn't mean everyone is.

The march is about showing respect for our proper identity.

Stop slandering it.

If you want to criticise being pro blue, by all means do so, but to associate the march as something specifically anti-Tan is totally unfair and you know it.

God know's what motivates these anti-blue people, I don't get it. I think you just aren't the 'active' type and you need to make up an excuse in your head not to attend.

If you are pro-blue then you should consider going tomorrow, it's nothing to do with Tan, no matter how much you paint it up as such in your head.

Let me stress.

I want Tan to stay and I'll be there tomorrow at 2pm to show my pride in my clubs colours. I'll then be there at 4pm to support the team in the Canton stand.

I am all for Return to blue and natural identity.
But I question the judgement of campaigning against an owner and asking him to walk with the hope that someone else will come in for us.

Does seem very short sighted.

Which BU haven't done.

Yes they have.

After the swansea game BU urged fans to sing anti tan songs.

The march is Pro Blue, nothing to do with Tan in or out.

How many times do people need to be told?

Where has he mentioned the march ?

Wez if you actually read the post you would clearly see the third word written is marches You are so keen to have a go at poters that you are now becoming blinded by your hatred which is nothing short of pathetic.

Also,

to the anti-blue brigade..

Which is correct?

Tan will be forced out?

Or

The march will make no difference anyway.

You can't whinge both ways.

Politics over the risk of human lives compared to politics over the risk of a football club cannot and should not be compared against each other on any scale .

One thing is for certain.


This could've been posted in one of the already numerous threads already discussing this well discussed topic.

Stop being a drama queen.

OK lets give it to you straight. Instead of judging BU on here why don't you go to one of their meeting and find out what they are all about.

One thing is for certain.

Aint that the truth mate.

If you want to slander people willing to stand up for the clubs identity though..why do it once, when you can do it five times?

i have read Jon Candys response to you last night a couple of times.

and from that.i have to say NO. he isnt crystal clear on how he thinks,let alone know what BUs stance on Tan out is.

rambled on about everyone having their own individual thoughts. very disappointing response tbh

they were set up as a group to Unite fans in an effort to put pressure on Tan to get our colours back, it certainly isnt a sole aim anymore.
myself...ive made an effort to wear blue every game since the re brand { i didnt used to wear colours }.it was my personal protest. i dont think by any stretch i am alone in doing this..i will again wear my blue Sunday, but if it starts to look like wearing blue can be taken as wanting Tan out or infact anything other than a protest purely against red,i think ill just go back to wearing ordinary clothing

How sad is this. Analysing one mans response on a forum and trying to second guess the intentions of BU. At least they are trying to do something other than sticking their arses in the air and biting down on Tans red pillow. Good luck to them I say and if you cant support them then leave them alone. I do find it amazing that despite what Tan has done to our club, some posters choose to ignore or critisizse Tan in any way yet see fit to constantly nit pick at those prepared to at least try and change things.

The impression I got from Johns response was his intentions were to return the true identity of Cardiff City.
But recent events have forced them to alter course and go for the full removal of tan.

That's my interpretation of his opinion, I respect it but I do not agree with it.

Bluebirds Unite are calling for a return to blue...nothing else.

So, much like numerous other threads, this one is a load of slanderous bullshit.

I am all for Return to blue and natural identity.
But I question the judgement of campaigning against an owner and asking him to walk with the hope that someone else will come in for us.

One fan put up a Tan out and you claim the whole of BU want Tan out?

During the march against Ridsdale a few sang "There is only one Yorkshire Ripper". Are you them claiming everyone on that march agreed with that line?

Can you say as BU committee members If the BU are happy to have Tan own Cardiff City as long as he changes us back to Blue, or do the BU want him out of Cardiff City. There is so much being said at the moment I'm sure lots of fans would like to know what the BU stance is on this

we want Tan out,we are disgusted by the red bully brigade, we want our blue back, our big bluebird,we want a say in the club, us and the trust Tim have joined together to march on Tan, see ya Sunday

Hope u got £200m then fella if not shit the f**k up

No point saying u want him out otherwise is there?

Have u got people ready to take over the day to day running of Cardiff city footba club as well as billionaire backers?

To be honest you probably don't think that far ahead

Hope the new owner isn't another Carson yeung! Just ask Birmingham fans how they feel!

Hope there's a few people with brains at the BU cos quite frankly what I read and see is beggars belief on times

my advice to you is why don't you go to one of BUs meeting and find out yourself what they are all about instead of judging them from what some say on here.

Now that's a quality response !

No official Message from BU saying tan out then.

Many thanks.

Anyone who slags the blue off, are not true Cardiff City fans end of !!! They are mainly Johnny come lately premiership at all cost supporters, soon as we are playing Barnet they will be know where to be seen

What a load of b***ocks!!

Once again, you are 'tarring' people with a brush to suit your own personal agenda

True fans are those who want what is best for their club; even if that occasionally means compromise (in this case, accepting Tan's wishes on the colour in exchange for the success we are all currently enjoying)

Haven't seen too many "walk away", but I've heard plenty of double standards being administered from the comfort of their seats inside the 'buzzing' CCS and 27,000+ people can't be wrong!

Thats just an apolgist Tan comment Sven.

Once again the "why are you still going if you dont agree with the rebrand" is being used. The only double standards are those who use this argument.

My original post was singing anti tan songs. Why would you urge fans to sing anti tan songs if you want him to stay?

It was on their facebook page as their status......take the blinkers off for one minute

Agreed, these posters attack any efforts to get us back to blue yet do not even attack Tan in any way for what he has done. They really are pathetic.

18 months ago, i did. Where were you?

The march is Pro Blue, nothing to do with Tan in or out.

Unfortunately this statement demonstrates why your cause can't be trusted.Even John Candy on another thread couldn't deny 100% that the BU was about colour only.Could you,hand on heart,tell me that there won't be a single chant(tan out) or banner with Tan out on it.

I am not associated with BU but glad they exist. Other football clubs would have a BU themselves.
On a personal level, I believe if Tan does not make a lot of money next couple of years he will quit either way and then we will be left high and dry.

Blue-army

He probably did too, you don't have to be a member of a forum to be doing something - he probably did things without being a forum member.

Lots of assumptions there chuckles....we know how you dont like them. Please stop answering for people. I asked cardiffkid a question, of which im sure he is perfectly capable of answering.
