Mixed , unsure of the outcome and my heart doesn't want to move there.
Personally, I wouldn't be surprised that once that is done to see Gold and Sullivan look to sell the club to rich local or overseas investors ? What do most hammers fans think about this - how are Gold and Sullivan looked upon ? Are WHU heading the same way as Cardiff once they move as they will need to attract more fans to the ground and obviously that will mean swaying local and neutral fans that WHU are the team to follow so will be keen to leave their reputation behind? Your probably right they are probably heading the same way , doesnt mean i have to like it, the only prayer is that it doesn't, bad enough happening at Cardiff , let alone West Ham!
Sometimes I miss Ninian Park but without the new stadium I think we may have financially been the Pompey of the championship and would have been relegated to league 1I know some will say that we wouldn't have had the debts associated with the new build but we already owed 24 million and also our capacity was going to be reduced due to the standing rules and no one would have been interested in buying us. Sam knew that hence why he was committed to moving. With the money now in the game a move is often the only alternative but its the way the tradition is carried over to me is the important factor , at CCS that has not happened especially with egg chasers involved and a board of Malaysians not knowing the history and tradition of the Cardiff Fan and more interested in the Malaysian way and their own people.
I understand some of the things you are pointing out BUT Blackpool have shown we the fans and our club don't have to "sell our souls" when you get in the premier! Blackpool have kept their tradition and have a board of locals interested in football until now anyway , especially when promoted. Cardiff are going the Cosway/Malaysian route , a good example all the goings on in Malaysia with Academies etc, you dont see Blackpool doing that.
It is down to us the fans to make the atmosphere and I think if we can't even enjoy and make any atmospshere in our current position then I dread to think what it will be like if we have an average season or are struggling!
Blackpool might not be a very good example. Owen Oysten, the majority shareholder is a convicted rapist. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Owen_Oyston

Like the changes or loathe them without the Malaysian input we were going bust.
The stadium may have a bit less allure for the traditional, but the kids love it , the family stand is worlds apart from the old one- and they are the future for the club.

Checked on this claim today and the truth is we have 2 French players registered with the academy, so not quite the numbers arsenal and the like have, perhaps the rest of the lads in the team have learnt French to hide the tactical moves they call out during the game and fool the opponents.lol

" The club are hopeful that there will be further investment coming as part of these visits and the hope is to build Cardiff City as the number one British team throughout Malaysia."
ITS f**k ALL TO DO WITH THE COMMUNITY THESE DAYS FELLA'S - IT'S ABOUT THEIR PRESTIGE IN THEIR HOMELAND.
THATS WHY IT'S NOT THE SAME ANYMORE THE LOCALS ARE NOT WANTED AS ITS NOT THE RIGHT IMAGE.

You seem totally disillusioned with the club and the future it has, which as along standing fan is a shame. It seems the academy most have really upset you at some time, but without knowing the details of how they work they must be doing something right surely ?
I suppose football is all about opinions, and the academy may look at players differently to you
Mr Ardley and co would no doubt say if your such a good judge of a young player perhaps you should have a job in football not furniture ?
keep the faith, and don't get old , grumpy and bitter. Try and enjoy the changeing face of football

I guess we have to hope that Steve Borley (as he is a fan as well as a director)continues to be involved to make sure they understand our culture as much as we need to understand their ways and culture
