I think that would be the final straw for me if they ever turned the whole stadium red

I just can't understand this logic.

Change the colour of the club - still going
Change the crest to a beer mat - still going
Reduce the blue shirt to basically a 3rd kit - still going
Scarf gate - still going

Change the colour of a seat that you plonk your arse on for 90mins a week to match the colour of the club- f**k that I'm outta here!!

Because that will mean I have to see red everywhere when I enter the stadium scarf gate made me feel sick and ashamed to be associated with cardiff almost felt like getting up and leaving the stadium. Plus it would be a lot harder to go back to blue if the entire stadium was red :sad7:

They were complete asset strippers and I'm glad they are gone but from a business point of view they beat the odds by making a lot of money out of a football club.

Carl made this claim last night ,was proved to be entirely wrong in his claim and had to delete the thread concerned and drop his claim.

How is buying assets that the club couldn`t develop itself for a full , independent valuation , lending the club money at the same 7% interest level as other creditors and the club using the money to be able to build the stadium and pay off some pressing debts "asset stripping"?

I don't want to see us lose any fans, especially as we're just about to enter a new phase of glorious success in our history. So here's a tip, go through the turnstiles, have a pint and burger then make your way to your seat as the teams come out. This way the stadium will be full when you enter the main bowl and you won't have to see the offensive red seats. Repeat at half time.

As for being harder to go back to blue, I don't buy that at all. If one nutter can pay to change them to red another nutter can pay to change them to blue.

Canton I'd guess it would be filling in the new seats too.[/quote]

There is no work in the family stand in relation to away supporters. They are going towards the Ninian

They should put a Big screen outside for those who can't get tickets to watch :ayatollah: :ayatollah:


Hopefully by Jan next year the Stadium will hold 30,000 plus :ayatollah: :ayatollah:



Is that Jan 2014 ? If so does that mean more season tickets as well as match day tickets will become available?

I'm beginning to see red over all of this, it's making me angry!

If they change my seat colour, there's a VERY SIMPLE answer..... I won't sit down.

Then you'll be ejected from the stadium and someone else will take your seat.

Could always go as a smurf and take a mirror in ur pocket? So when you see the red seats and start crying, you can take the mirror from your pocket and make yourself smile and others laugh! Boost morale
