How often are you supposed to give your hard earned to an organisation who treat you with complete and utter contempt???

Like many on here, I dont want to give up my ticket next year but I can no longer support the regime of a club that is in my mind one of the worst run in the history of the game!!!

Note, it is this present regime at CCFC. I cannot continue to back this ridiculous Tan Puppet Circus. #NoBlueNoRenew is not saying never support Cardiff City again and while not renewing next season is hard, it is not the end of the road and hopefully a stand that will help hasten the return of the true, blue CCFC.

By not renewing you are making a statement to the club that they cannot ignore you, but you need to make them know why by whatever means (legally) possible.

I will continue to be a CCFC fan the rest of my life but I cannot and will not continue to put my money in to an organisation that is currently destroying itself and something we all hold dear.

I have not boycotted yet and will protest at every given opportunity this season, but there comes a time when you have to say enough is enough!

CCFC forever but No Blue No Renew for now!!!!

Short term pain for Long term gain......oh

&Tan is a Thunder©en£ !!! :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

Has Tan taken a slight bit of notice ?

No he hasnt, except for going live on Sky Sports News on Xmas day to ask fans not to protest. :roll:

But you keep stupidly thinking it is not bothering him.

He is at breaking point and doesn't know what to do and what he is doing is making an idiot of himself on live television and not even stating facts so I believe it is getting to him and something is about to give.

We may not like the outcome because I don't think it will end very pretty but I sense the end is coming to this whole sorry affair.

But there again I am pretty stupid. :roll:


You have valid points maybe tan is starting to crumble? But that is still a big maybe.. you could be right you could be wrong time will tell but all im saying is it hasent worked so far and tan hasent changed his mind. I didnt mean the stupid comment to be offensive pal just trying to get my point across..

I may have to admit in time that I was wrong but I believe WE are keeping him out by US being in the stadium.

If we walk away, do you honestly believe that everyone will ?

I don't and I think that there will be thousands left in the stadium and Tan won't see it as a defeat but more of 'getting rid of the pesky kids'.

The revenue lost, even if 10,000 of the current 18,000 didn't renew would be £4m and when put in context of players wages, it wouldn't bother him but it lessen the protests against him which I think he would welcome and his staff would welcome it too.


Disagree about wages carl. 4 million pays wages for a lot of players wages for the year. He would rather have that money than not have it simple

Do you believe that 10,000 or more will not renew?

And if they didn't, £4m to the bloke who is in for £170m and counting is not going to be the deciding factor, it is a hit of course but is it enough ?

Good post.
We are still fans and want the best for the Club, but only a Blue Club together as one.
I'm waiting until we're Blue again before I gladly return.
We can just agree to disagree. Good debate though

Couldn't we hand out a4 size tan out print outst surely stewards can't get at all of them. If everyone printed 5 to 10 and hand few out and hold them up straight after 19:27 protests :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

Re: " KEEPING THE PRESSURE ON VINCENT TAN "

Tue Dec 30, 2014 10:25 pm

I hope we beat Colchester and draw Swansea home in the next round and every fan agreed to boycott that game.

That would be a protest.

Liverpool game at home, the biggest Blue protest so far, looked amazing. Tan didn't react to any of it.
Do fans now think a game against Rotherham next season will finally change his mind?!?

He may not of reacted in the stadium but by god he was embarrassed in front of the dignitaries he had invited that day.

Tan no longer comes to the stadium, ask yourself why ?

He is embarrassed and possibly even worried about the reaction to his attendance.

I am more than happy to keep him on the outside while we occupy from within.

It is our stadium, a blue stadium, not his.

If Tan is absent, then why will anyone going effect him?


Just because he is not at the stadium does not mean its getting to him.

Our protest agenda has been noticed by the Malaysian media. Besides occupying from within as Carl says, it looks like our efforts are reaching the withins of his own backyard

Ian it is BECAUSE of the protests inside the stadium that he is ABSENT.

People are not seeing it.

We are keeping him out whilst we take over the stands.

We take over the stands in silence. A beaten silence. Tan ain't here because we ain't in the Prem. He don't care about what we feel or do.
tw*t out !!


After reading through the posts this is the one that makes the most sense IMO.

A NoBlueNoRenew is by far the best possible way coupled to the template letter to the club. Of course not every single person will do this but if thousands do it will make a far bigger impact than a hundred or so fans singing 'Tan out' once during a game that hardly anyone can hear.
Yes it's up to each individual but some people haven't got the conviction of not watching City for probably one season in order to see the bigger picture & get what we all want.

Is this a cop out by certain high profile fans? Maybe.
Such a shame.

Re: " KEEPING THE PRESSURE ON VINCENT TAN "

Tue Dec 30, 2014 10:26 pm

Obviously the strongest protest that would get the message across would be an empty stadium. That would almost certainly see Tan looking for a way out as soon as possible. That won't happen. For all the shouting and chest thumping, only a small minority of fans would be prepared to make a short term sacrifice for the long term good of the club. Things will continue as they have, lots of fans cursing the day Tan arrived at this club while continuing to hand him their cash. As long as Tan gets fans spending their money, he will do exactly as he wants, and will be probably be around for long enough to virtually destroy Cardiff City as we know it forever.

Ill say it again 2 people went on a lovely preseason holiday prior to the rebrand but in no way tan could do that.

Sold your souls and every time the circus lose you want to protest... No protest in place when slade was first appointed only now you don't like the scores.

You should have boycotted a month ago.

Now slade has the transfer windows


How is it on that high horse of yours?



What happened in 2011?



Nothing a small protest that was held by people that would rather see Cardiff in a lower league then sell there souls


Don't remember that at all. 2011 was great actually. We'd employed Malky and had our souls for all of that season, right through to 2012. I'll ask again, how it is on that high horse of yours?[/quote ]

I know you loved malky but unfortunately how much I do hate the running of the club I do believe money played a big part you have your beliefs I have mine. But did malky look out for the club at the rebrand meetings including the supporters trust? as for protests I seen alot of red scarfs I mean alottttt. Not saying you had one but there were alot.

If I were to put it this way ..

You have shopped at tescos most of your life and you swear but there food and customer service. One day your have a bad experience so you decide never to shop there again.
Tesco loses business and gets bad publicity eventually they have to change things.

Tan calls cardiff a business he wants to make money.

A business will only run off of customers.

Then you take virgin or sky ? or in our case a season ticket.

You have bad experiences and threaten to leave .. so they offer you a discount
Hence cheap day tickets this will only apply if you are out of contract. Then you can swap change over whatever you like a few months down the line you think I cant be bothered changing its to much hassle so ill just stay out of contract..Hence not to renew but will get tickets on match days = Still giving money makes the business run.

Its clear to say the protests are not working and are not bothering tan

There has to be a boycott 1500-2000 fans from approximately 14000 ticket sales is 10% 1927 protest is not working ill tell you why games arnt live nonone can see it apart from us and opposition supporters that are really laughing inside.
Noone gives a crap.

Tans says agreement between him and supports trust I change the colour and badge ill settle dept that's fine but we didn't agree that we will be there every game = Boycott

Im on my high horse and I like it

For the sake of debate, it could be argued that those who are not renewing now are copping out after the season in the sun.

With all due respect, you've been fighting from within for a while now. That has just seemed to make Tan more determined than ever to crush this rebellion, and has made him even more vindictive. Each person must take whatever action they think is best. Personally, I won't donate any of my money to him until I can watch the Cardiff City I recognise.

Re: " KEEPING THE PRESSURE ON VINCENT TAN "

Tue Dec 30, 2014 10:41 pm

It's a tough choice though, do fans stay and keep protesting or walk away.
Some love their football fix and want to campaign from within, others will walk but some say they walk now because the footballs dire.Its a tough choice definitely.

I'll go my way, you go yours.
We are all City fans andI hope we can all be reunited, one day, however we get there

Absolutely :ayatollah: :bluescarf:

Very disappointed with both Carl and Annis here. 100% no blue no renew is the way forward!!!! Both seem to be bottling it a little when we need to be making a statement. Short term pain for long term gain, please don't bottle it you two - please don't.

I know that my friend. Do you think empty stadiums everywhere would keep Football going in the same vein or would it damage it? I think the latter and that's where it shares business characteristics.

My #NoBlueNoRenew campaign wouldn't really work from within though :D :lol:

They are just numbers, like us, to Tan.
Everyone entitled to their stance on this but options are running out

Options are running out and I read your previous post that was deleted.

I just want my club back ive kept away for 2 seasons hoping more and more would do the same.

Im saying saying I have anything more in pride then any other supporter but I do have long ties with the club and miss it if im honest I prefered ninian park win lose or draw see you next week the long walk to canton and a bus home in blue.

If things arnt resolved by the end of the season and with that I don't think it will. Im taking up golf on a saturday with the others that boycotted instead of watching games online.

All the best to any protests

Surprised at your stance Carl. I like will find it hard but in these dark times we need to stick together. We need 90 percent not to renew. That's a he'll of a statement and personally I think the only chance to get back to blue. I guess we all have opinions but I am praying that most don't renew. Higher profile fans would help this objective but each to there own.

Just for the record I am a season ticket holder since 1992. Sometimes we have to give something up in short term to get the end goal.

Always blue

I'm all for protesting, banners, flags, scarves and pro blue /anti tan songs, but we've been doing that for 2 1/2 season now and it's got us absolutely nowhere. Tan is more arrogant and belligerent now than he's ever been and he's now given us a five thousand red f*cking seats!!

Boycott is the only answer, if we are all honest with ourselves we all know it has been right from the very start. But it's never too late.

Some say they aren't bothered and just want to support the team, that's their choice, but for those that really want him out then it really is the only way.
