I haven't watched it yet but i will do. But i have to say there is nothing wrong with letting the fella know what and how we feel. If we would like our identity back he needs to know that blue and the bluebird is what our Club stands for. If he is starting to get the bug then great but as long as no one is abusive then we need to keep up the Blue fight :ayatollah:

At least he is now speaking with fans, he certainly seems a lot more involved and interested in the club than when he joined.

I was there last night and it really was a car crash of a speech VT tried to say that the Bluebird was weak and needed to be protected????????

He did ask what was wrong with Red as it is our national colours and also made the point that the Dragon on our shirts was a Welsh Dragon and not a Malaysian or Chinese one but the majority of fans there made it clear through chants of Bluebirds and 'we will always be BLUE' that we want to return to Blue.

I don't think for one minute we will because he is convinced about 'Lucky Red' :( consequently he will never be revered by the fans but could change that in a heart beat by announcing we will play in Blue in the Premiership :old:

We live in hope :malky: :ayatollah:

my thoughts exactly...but as far as bussiness is concerned you dont get to be in the top 1000 richest blokes in the world for nothing. I got no strong views on the rebrand, would like to play in blue but accept the red,prob the opinion of MOST of us(dont want to get into yet another red/blue argument)
We have got the potential to be a massive club,supporter base of virtually whole of south wales pop 2 million(with the exception of a couple of hundred thousnd jacks of course)-the sleeping giant is no more.

I respect the fans for making their voices heard in their quest to stay blue but there's got to be some compromise with the man who is financing us. I won't be part of any movement to drive him away, and I honestly feel heckling him and showing disrespect will do just that.


I agree with this, Good post :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
