Well, one thing you can never accuse Tan of, is being intransigent, as he has repaired much of the (supposed to some) damage he caused...
Can't say the same for some supporters, who have continued to live in a (negative) past refusing to acknowledge anything Tan does rooted in their own intransigenic ways...
He shouldn’t have changed our colours in the first place let’s be honest. Complete lack of respect for us the supporters and our club. But like you say, he changed his mind, he didn’t have to. So we could have had a worse owner who could have been stubborn and refused to revert back to blue. But, from a personal point of view I’d like a new owner, the damage has been done for me. I completely fell out of love with Cardiff city through that period and that was all down to Tan.
We got promoted to the Premier League in Red for the first time in over 60 years and if we hadn’t been relegated we would still be in Red and apart from the diehards no one would care! Leeds changed their colours from Blue to All white to be like Real Madrid and became the most successful side in the League for 10 years and are still way ahead of us! Many clubs regularly change their colours and no one cares as long as they are winning! Tan’s money has certainly given us our most successful period since the 1920’s when we won the FA Cup and were runners up in the top division. His main mistake has been not appointing a Top Director of Football and so wasting millions on poor Managers and journeymen players. Swansea now have three ex Managers in the Premier League whereas apart from Malky whose with the mighty Ross County they’re all unemployed!
I cared. That wasn’t the team I grew up supporting that made the premier league. It was a fake franchise that was all about marketing to people half way around the world. If people were happy in red then good on them, even though I can’t understand it myself but that’s my opinion and that’s theirs. We will never agree on this topic but I do agree with you on getting a football man in to run the club on a day to day basis.
What football man do you suggest then that would come to Cardiff?

I don’t work in the football world how the hell am I supposed to know? Someone that has experience in running football clubs would be a good start. Other than 2 idiots living in London with no interest in Cardiff.
