Thats not a march then is it.

2500 actually on the march is the figure stated by the people on it feeling they need to defend the figures. Maybe 4000 stood outside the ground, but its a matchday thousands will be there anyway. If thousands are singing songs im sure people would stop and join in as its fun.

Doesnt mean they were on the protest march though does it.

But its semantics really. Either way its 10% or 15% and Tan will be rubbing his hands together.

You are one boring pointless c**t.
I missed most of the march and most of my mates missed it all, we all hate the red.
Majority of the ground in blue and holding up blue scarves at 19.27 says it all to me.
Along with chants of 10% you're having a laugh.
More people wearing blue than before the rebrand :lol:

Try organising a 'protest' or march for anything. Regardless of the population's opinion, try getting the majority to actually march/make a stand. You know that is impossble.

Wait until you see the photos of the crowd today. The sea of blue shows the feeling of the large majority of the fans.

We did, Tony Petty march. The majority of the match day attendance marched.

2500 of a 4200 attendance.

4,000 marching was a decent effort and inside the ground was a sea of blue

I meant in general. Besides, 4000 fans of a league 2 club on the verge of going bust are arguably more likely to join in a protest that 26k fans of a premier league club. I think you know that these are different circumstances.

Only 8% oppose it, while 92% seem to not want to oppose it.


But your assuming who didn't turn up is pro tan and pro red. I was in work till 2 and missed the march. So there are 4 in my group who are opposed to red who were not on the march. Stop spouting nonsense and see who many you will get at a wear red for tan day. You should be close to 25k by your reckoning.

So if you didn't march you don't want Cardiff in blue? :lol: I can quote 20 names of the top of my head, people who hate the red but for whatever reason did not 'march'.

Desperate attempt at a wind-up from a jack who saw a real club culture come alive today in Canton. :D

It was more like 4 - 5,000, so Who are you quoting? :lol:


I didnt say anybody WANTS red or DONT want cardiff in blue did I?

I said 90% dont want to oppose it. A I wrong then?

As for who am i quoting.....

Thats the tip of the iceberg.


So you can only oppose it if you marched today. Making up protest rules as you go along :lol:

As for those quotes, It's hard to measure while in the crowd. if pushed for a figure while on the walk, I couldn't have said a number with an accuracy. Police who are crowd control professionals say 4,000, so lets work with that figure instead of your figures garnered from your defected brain.

Just a small point but the attendance today was 28019 not 26000.

Don't know where 2,500 came from police reckon it was closer to 4000-5000 :roll:

Re: So Tan was right?

Sat Mar 22, 2014 9:14 pm

The actual number on the march is irrelevant.
The fact that thousands marched against the rebrand is enough of a statement to the world that ccfc will always be blue

Re: So Tan was right?

Sat Mar 22, 2014 9:48 pm

Great march, don't let this prick drag it down to his level. Everyone did CCFC proud. :ayatollah:

Lack of people? We filled slopper road from the bridge to the gate, police quoted 4000 on the march I thought about 3000 (but your anonymous source is probably more accurate ;)) but either way say what you want it was a cracking turn out and what about the supports club survey says 87% back to blue, I guess you've got a reason for this too?

Re: So Tan was right?

And tan was far from rubbing his hands together he didn't celebrate a goal because he was f*cking flapping. Next time before making a serious of assumptions and putting figures together try going to a game instead of sitting on your fat arses and see for yourself where the support stands, you pair of clowns

No im not, it is nothing to do with pro tan or pro red.

Those people that didnt go dont oppose it, simple as that. They may not like it, they may not want it - but they dont oppose it. And that is the point and that is what Tan will be thinking tonight.

Thats contradictory. In order to oppose it then surely you have to... oppose it. You may not like or agree with the rebrand, but you certainly didnt oppose it. Only 2000 - 4000 opposed it yesterday.

The definition of opposing is - disagreeing AND trying to prevent.

You and 22,000 others have the firt bit down to a tee, but not the all important second part.

No I opposed the rebrand by wearing blue inside the stadium.

Re: So Tan was right?

Wearing the away (3rd) strip is not opposing anything. I have the purple and yellow away strip too and its seen down the Liberty week in week out. That isnt opposition or indeed an attempt to prevent. Its something seen in their thousands in every stadium up and down the land.

Irrelevant, it's the away/3rd colours.

You know that wearing the away colours isnt going to sway Tan in the slightest so it isnt really trying to actively prevent anything is it. So it isnt an opposition as a personal dislike.

Weqring the away colours isnt really disrupting anything what so ever. Its normal
