Comment on BU

Although, I have no doubt that throw-away remarks against Tan which are written online are definitleY undermining the group.

This from a BU supporter.

well said.
You know deep down all these silly comments do your cause no good at all.

It's not deep down, it's something I've always freely admitted on here. I've also made it clear in the fb group & on their forum.

Yes you have,fair point.Enjoy your meeting tonight.

Can't make this meeting sadly. Other commitments.

Fooking hell scraping the bottom of the barrell for an attack on Bluebirds Unite. A throw away comment FFS. Some on here are such goody two shoes

Just looking for excuses to have a go at BU as they know it's getting stronger and stronger

Was Sian Bransons a throw away comment.She had to make a public apology ffs.

What did she say?

A bit pathetic to be honest. Why should she apologise ? She has always said she is new to this and will make mistakes. She may say things she should not. FFS The lass has put a tremendous effort to get this group going and has a heart of gold. This young Lady has kept this group together and as it gets bigger it will get a harder job. She has nothing to opologise for in my opinion. Some on here are trying to take her down because she frightens the hell out of you. That is your problem.
Bluebirds Unite is the way forward to getting our identity back. Get used to BU coz its getting bigger and on the march. And Coming to a football match near you.

It's an interesting one as I have been saying it on their Facebook page for a while now that they need to stop people saying dumb 'throwaway comments'. Given that VT had a couple of deaths in his family lately (one of which was a car crash?) it's stupid and disrespectful, not to mention insensitive (the accident was real - someone could have actually been hurt).

IT WILL HURT THE BU CAUSE IF THESE IDIOTS KEEP SPOUTING SHITE LIKE IT IS GOING OUT OF FASHION

Thankfully there are some sensible BU members - but the majority of Cardiff City FC fans won't join an organisation which has more than a hint of cluelessness about it.

I genuinely hope Sian and BU pull the reigns in on things like this before it gets worse.

Like i have said on here before, i admire the hard work thats gone in and wish them all the best, but i cannot and will not support them and that is because i cant put my name to something thats got LOADS of idiots posting crap all the time in the group, if they are not the views of the group then surely the person making the comments is not a part of the group as they do not share the views of the group so just remove them from the group, simple. That way you keep it about blue and keep it full of people who care and you may then attract more support and get a few like me changing their tune.

I wont be part of a group that has members calling other city fans stuff such as bastards and not true supporters, and people making comments about ANYONE being in a car crash with "lol" after it implying it is actually funny.

All members are part of the group because they all want one thing, Cardiff to return to blue. All other comments from members are irrelevant to what the group is about as it doesn't reflect what the whole group think, it reflects what that individual person thinks. Some may want Tan to leave, some may want him to stay. It doesn't matter who's part of the group or what other people think, the only point in being part of the group is because you want Cardiff to play in blue.

It's no different to being a supporter of Cardiff City in my opinion.

I'd love a return to blue.

Your wasting your time sadly fella as my mind is made up, so obviously people making them kind of comments do have a bad effect as I no longer chose to support BU.
Same thing as agreeing with a few points UKIP or BNP make but not voting for them because of the idiot element attached.

Delete the posts and remove persistent offenders..simple.

I'm not wasting my time, I don't give a shit whether you support the group or not, I'm just saying that the whole group shouldn't be tarnished with the same brush as the majority of the group are good people.

But I agree they should delete disrespectful and offensive posts and remove persistent offenders.

And who's taring them with the same brush? All I said is that it damages the group, and I'm right.

Great reasoning, let's tar everyone with the same brush. I hate Vincent Tan but also support BU. Cardiff City fans making themselves out to be whiter than white after selling the clubs soul for success haha it's laughable.

I love the way some of you paint the people sticking up for tradition as the bad people. If there was a war I can tell you who I would rather have in my corner, people who stick up for there principles and values, not sheep who will do anything for money and success.

Some of you make me sick to my stomach and embarrassed that I am a Cardiff fan.

The only part I don't understand is why you would hate VT. I can understand you hating the re-brand but that's the only thing he's done wrong!

I hate him for the total lack of respect he has for my views and beliefs. I don't know who he thinks he is but in this life you earn respect, he's trampled over the identity of my club and thinks I should be grateful. He is a dilusional fool.

Well you're right he hasn't earned any respect through how he handled this whole affair, maybe, just maybe Sam will eventually get him to see how to press the right buttons to get supporters to 'love him' (as SH puts it!).

Mind you thats as far as I want Sam involved

Fingers crossed mate but the only thing Hammam is motivated by is money sadly. If he gets us back to blue, starts engaging with the fans and treating us like a football club not a play thing then Tan could be a legend (I won't hold my breath though)

Prime example of attacking other fans, if there was a war & if there was a war plenty of people would be watching their backs around you, just in case they disagree with you

Not attacking anyone, simply stating a point. I would rather people next to me who are willing to stand up for something, fact.

You hate VT and your a bu supporter what a surprise.
Do you realize what Tan has done for City.If you hate him and other city fans that much then i take it you'll be boycotting Cardiff's first season in the premier league.Your a joke ely boy.

I think you'll find I've not been down since the rebrand so pipe down darling

Surely you must realise that a lot of members of BU will dislike Tan for his rebrand.. They feel strongly about it. Why are they not allowed to dislike Tan?

BU's stance is not Tan Out, that doesn't mean it's members aren't allowed to dislike Tan?

ELY BOY, has boycotted since West Ham away, to answer your question.

I think you'll find I've not been down since the rebrand so pipe down darling

If everyone who's against the rebranding took your stance maybe there might be change but until that happens i can't see anything happening.

You sound like a very sad individual.I certainly wouldn't want you watching my back in a sticky situation.

This is not ab wind up its my opinion. " Tan will be here whilst BU fades away, people are already making there excuses for not being able to attend tonight". I think I'll just concentrate on the football and leave you all to argue over and over and over and over. Yawwwwwwwnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

You're Spartacus, you're probably pretty handy anyway.

He was probably wearing Blue mate, weakened him.

That's a comment from one person who the group.

You wouldn't stop supporting Cardiff City because a Cardiff fan murdered someone.

Let me put that argument back at you with its logical extension: Would you stop supporting Cardiff City if a faction of its fans went around routinely committing acts of murder?

The petty-mindedness of BU's campaign is best seen in relation to other potentially equally damaging campaigns that could be taken up at a moment's notice:

The Return to Ninian Park.
The removal of sponsorship from shirts.
Having players paid in pounds, shillings and pence in small brown envelopes.
Games broadcast in black and white only.
Forcing fans to attend matches in their Sunday Best.
Forcing players to live on a diet of beer and suet and style their hair using Brylcreem.
The club only buys players whose main job is working down a coal mine or in a steel mill.
Admittance only to those sporting sideburns and flares.
The club only buys players fluent in Welsh and only admit fans to the ground that do too.
The club bans smart phones from the ground.

Its easy to look good, scoring political points with certain sections of the fan-base by giving the impression that you're defending the club's traditions; some sections of the fan-base are so confused they get a kick from being a thorn in the club's hierarchy, but actually leading a club to real success is hard.

There is no more reason to support the BU cause than any of the above potential campaigns and given that they are all as equally ludicrous and destructive as each other, no Cardiff City fan should have anything to do with any of them at all.

factgasm if that is what you believe then you really don't understand what supporting a football club, your local club and more importantly Cardiff City is all about. It's about identifying with the club, identifying with the clubs colours, if that leaves football then we may as well all support Real Madrid and be done with it.

It's all just in your mind.

If you and your mates walked into the park tonight and spontaneously had a game of football, would it detract from your win if you weren't wearing blue?

Cardiff fans didnt sell their soul for success. Most fans just want to go to a game and keep supporting the club they've supported all their lives, what's wrong with that? Yeah we've changed colour, but it's still Cardiff City, and that's the main thing for most fans at the end of the day.
They say you should support your team through thick and thin, but the likes of you just threw your toys out the pram and walked away. I'm not sure I'd want to go to war with a quitter like you. Luckily people like you ( I won't say fan cos you ain't one.) are a small minority.

One of the reasons I support Cardiff City and not Real Madrid is because I am from Cardiff and I want to see my home city club do well. I don't associate with Cardiff City simply because of it's kit colour.

While I grew up in Cardiff, I have lived and worked much of my life over the border and endured my fair share of anglo-saxon racism in the process (the same abuse you'd be subject to, BTW). I would love nothing more than to see Cardiff City absolutely grind certain other clubs into the dirt because I know it would infuriate those who thought they could be so rude.

I don't give a toss what colour Cardiff wear, all I care about is the result: knowing that Cardiff, my club, trounced the opposition on the pitch, fair and square.

All institutions change. Just look at the House of Lords. They've practically got rid of the centuries old tradition of hereditary peers and about time too. Everything changes and provided that change brings the desired result ever closer, I'm all for it.

If you do not see winning football matches as the core reason for the club's existence, then you are wasting everyone's time, especially your own.

so do you think its a stupid comment?

Yes, death isn't something to joke about

YOU mentioned death, JonCCFC. I don't see it mentioned until YOU came on and ruined yet another thread with your childish antics and responses

Of course, you will now say I'm picking on you or I'm a prick or I don't know what I'm talking about or I'm a Primary School teacher or you don't like my style of writing, etc.

It couldn't possibly be that I just think you are one of the worst posters on this site or that you are so easily caught out by an increasing number of people, eh?

Anything rather than considered debate, JonCCFC and that is the the domain of an ignorant young man

spot on.
He hates VT.
Cardiff City fans make him sick because they sold their soul.
He's a quitter.
BU don't need enemies with him on board.

Like Spartacus said a very sad individual.

A bit pathetic to be honest. Why should she apologise ? She has always said she is new to this and will make mistakes. She may say things she should not. FFS The lass has put a tremendous effort to get this group going and has a heart of gold. This young Lady has kept this group together and as it gets bigger it will get a harder job. She has nothing to opologise for in my opinion. Some on here are trying to take her down because she frightens the hell out of you. That is your problem.
Bluebirds Unite is the way forward to getting our identity back. Get used to BU coz its getting bigger and on the march. And Coming to a football match near you.

Throughout the centuries, the English have found it piss-easy to conquer and to oppress the Welsh - because the Welsh couldn't get their bloody act together to defeat the English.

For more than fifty years, Cardiff City languished in the lower reaches of the football league, ridiculed for their under performance. The along come a Scotsman and a Malaysian to show us the error of ours and to rearm us for the fight ahead - and what is the response of certain sections of the fan-base? The sanctimonious, self-indulgent drivel above.

I tell ya, there's one thing that the Welsh have historically been good at - and that's division among themselves. Here we stand, on the eve of entering the promised land and here some of you are acting like deluded self-appointed busy-bodies, militant little trade-unionists, hell bent on wrecking this exciting new era in the club's history even before its begun. You should be absolutely ashamed of yourselves for what you are doing to Cardiff City.

This club's enemies - and there are plenty of those I assure you - are absolutely pissing themselves with laughter. You BUs couldn't be doing a better job of hamstringing our club if you were a bunch of Jacks.

The real enemy isn't within the club, it's out there. It's the like of Chelsea and Arsenal, Swansea and Manchester United. They are the enemy, not anyone within the club. If you want anyone to hate, then focus your tiny little minds on our league opposition, because when they come to Cardiff, they will come in their hoards, with their best warriors and their best weapons and rest assured they will put us to the sword if they can. You want to repeat the mistakes from history?

By creating Bluebirds Unite, you are doing the very opposite of what you claim. You are not uniting the club, you are creating division within it, you are creating an us-and-them, you silly sods. Either you a Cardiff City fan, or you are not; there is no in between,no special groups and no cliques. Your only loyalty is to the club and to nothing else.

If you can't handle that, then go and support a different club.
