I feel very deflated this morning. I didn't accept a red scarf because it's a clear attempt at Vincent Tan manipulating our support to back his case to push on with the red re-brand. After last night, all he has to do now is say "well, look at how many people wore the red scarf".
If you are fine with the re-brand and have no problem with that then all the power to you. However, if you honestly believe it was a generous innocent gift from Tan then you clearly are a very naive individual.
I've never slagged people off for being pro-red or pro-blue. Personally, I am pro-blue but provided we have a club to support, I can tolerate the red kit. I won't tolerate a change of name, location or removal of the Bluebirds logo from the badge.
I honestly thought last night was going to be the moment when us fans showed how much we wanted blue back. Maybe us pro-blue supporters are in the minority? We were in the minority supporting us in League Two after all.
I am disillusioned. Not only because of what I saw last night but because now it seems I totally misjudged the general fan base's opinion on it. Will I get a season ticket for next season? Unless the club changes the location, club name or removes the bluebird from the badge then yes. That doesn't mean I can't hate what the owners are doing with the club. I'll still support the players. I just feel so disillusioned though.

This is quite simply. A lie, or to be polite not true. I saw many fans tonight who go away regularly and have been following City for years, wearing red scarves. The only thing that concerned them was the result.
Everyone says that but the FACT is as short a time ago as 1998 the average attendance was 4,000.
i bet 15,000 of them last night hadnt been before 2000......

You would take conference football just to see cardiff back in blue go & have a look at FC United who were formed in protest against the malaysians they r in some south conference league semi pro team i know 4 a fact you anti-red lot will go to the first few games maybe a few thousand of you then you'll realise what a load of shit it is & you'll be back down Cardiff City stadium watching us in the premier league

Don't renew your season ticket. I
don't respect those who carry on watching but
don't have the cahonas to stand by their principles.
Don't go and then you can moan, or go to the games and
don't moan. There's no middle ground from now on.
Do what you have to do.

I would guess that say 30% of the posters on here would possibly support some form of protest or at least say they would, whereas amongst friends, work colleagues and people I speak to at games, whilst some will never wear red and dont understand the reasons for changing from blue, I have only ever spoken to one person who would probably go as far as to protest against what Tan is doing.
As someone who has no issues what colour shirt we play in and feel I understand Tan's reason for changing to red, I must admit to have been surprised by the sheer number of people wearing red scarfs at yesterday's game but it did confirm one thing for me - we all had a choice that night and the majority have spoken
