But the best excuse I have herd to date is that we dont sing because tan has fucked u about? Its a derby ffs, I still cant get my head around how shit your support was for your team.
Thats the difference between us and u, we live in reality and stick by the team manager and board.
You opend your arms to tan done f**k all untill it was to late.
And when u did get media coverage on your plight and the backing from fans off all clubs, tan brings in ogs and he brings in some players then all is forgotten.
You need to stop blaming others and take a hard look at your selfs.

What long contract was that then? Originally for 2 years, and then signed an extra years contract? Would have been out of contract in July 2015!

Fair enough, im not too clued up on Laudrup's contract suprisingly as Im a City fan. Huw usually gets the big pay-out when a manager leaves. Backfired this time, but if Laudrup has only even lasted 2 years in club management what made them think Swansea would be different? Anyway it sounds like a big pay-off so I thought Huw bumped him up to 2020

I'm a City fan too! Just not the same one as yours!![]()
There will be no big 'pay off' to Michael Laudrup. Don't believe what you read in the papers!

Dont forget we got to the Premiership by winning the championship clearly not by the play-offs like you Scumsea.

For the majority of Cardiff supporters, we could see that the unhealthy relationship between Tan & Malky could not be allowed to carry on, thats why the majority wanted a change in manager. I, like many others were bored with the football under Malky and I really did think that given money to spend he would have added more of an attacking type of player to the squad for the upcoming Premiership.
Agreed that you have to defend your hearts out against the Man City's etc of this world, but all the bottom half teams are not much better than the top of the championship, so they would be there for the taking, under Malky that wasn't happening, we were totally defensive even against those teams. I have no doubt that we would have been relegated under Malky, all but showing fight, but still relegated. It is of course easy to blame Tan for interfering, but in all honesty, in the Championship last year when things were apparently good between the two, then many still had doubts, as we struggled to draw let alone beat mediocre teams, so Tans interference should not have been a factor. How we actually won that league by so many points, I and supporters of most other clubs we played will never know![]()
What results like yesterday's do is highlight the dis- enchantment that many supporters have with what's gone on with our club, namely the pathetic and needless re-brand, which has driven a wedge between the club and it's fans and even fans against fans. The passion has been sucked out of the support, it has been drained since Sam Hammam left in all fairness and has got progressively worse, culminating with the re- brand. If you speak to most City supporters now, especially those that started following City in the 80's, they are mostly confused, in what and why they are actually supporting these daysthey have no identification with the teams colour and badge, the football product is a vastly overpriced past time, which I suspect they get very little enjoyment from on its own, without that feeling that we all once had, that what ever happens we are all part if the same tribe, supporting everything that that tribe stands for, that has all been lost with the re-brand.
I also think it's part of a wider and more general dis-enchantment with football as a whole. Vastly over paid players and now even managers, foreign owners with pots of cash but no respect for football culture and identity, corrupt governing bodies like FIFA, all seater stadia, football supporters being treated worse than terrorists, yes really,![]()
On a personal level it offers a dichotomy, I have this deep love and loyalty to Cardiff City, yet I know that logically, everything stinksI was sitting in the 3 Kings, London, yesterday watching the game and as you do got chatting with Leeds fan, Spurs fan, Chelsea fan about the game as we were getting turned over by our bitter rivals. I literally couldn't really be arsed, as the conversation drifts towards the rebrand and it's total non- sensical nature and how passionate City supporters once were, how they sold out etc etc, it doesn't have to be an accurate assessment but the fact remains that it has effected loyalty and therefore that passion for the club, when that is lost, then following a club becomes just like any other leisure pursuit I.e you do it when you really feel like it, have time for it or can afford it.
The dichotomy of course comes from what happened last week against Norwich, I felt as much tension, nerves and unbelievable relief and elation that I ever have done when we got that win and the 3 pointsThat's really the point with us football supporters for the vast majority, as long as the team is winning all the other stuff vanishes into the shadows. If we had beaten the Jacks yesterday, OGS would have been a legend today, first manager to do the double etc, we would all be saying how we will now survive and looking to renew our STs on Monday, looking to spank Villa Tuesday
That, is one thing that will never ever change, the fickleness of football supporters and how dark or bright the world is, depending on how our team win or lose, the moment you lose that effect on your mood, is the time to give up going to games and merely become an acquaintance with football and the team they once supported.
