Personally I'd prefer the stickies to remain mostly neutral (admittedly that's not always possible) or even better only football/breaking news related but at the end of the day it's your board so go nuts with whatever you want on the stickies.

Exaclty, he who pays the piper, calls the tune, that's how it works out there in real world.

I suppose a topic like this is going to be expected when users are planning on jumping ship if it doesn't go red!!!![]()
But they will accept the kit and still attend the stadium?![]()
Just a question, but is MM's (cc*b)board going to revert to red soon?
dont understand the issue here at all merlin. why would anybody want the board to go red.
And why would anyone threaten to leave the board coz it ain't red, why are people so obsessed over colours, like Macca said in the meeting, the last time I had a favorite colour was when I was six, I got a favourite team and that as always been the same, my favourite colour is actually yellow, but I wouldn't think of giving my support or allegiance to a team just on the strength of it, at the end of the day it's a fecking colour.
I have a favourite player, I have had favourite managers and favourite owners, I have never fallen out of love with the club when they have changed owners, managers or players, the club and belonging is everything.

Thanks for that quote Gwyn. Well, all us season ticket holders do pay the piper but we are far from allowed to call the tune and in fact you don't think we should have any say at all.

How do we pay the piper?
We barely pay a fraction of the club's outgoings.

Don't dismiss our contribution so easily. Its all about percentages. Most fans season tickets (especially if more than 1 is purchased) represents a bigger percentage chunk out their yearly income than what Tan is investing.

But its all relative and just shows that the fans most probably commit a bigger percentage of their annual towards the club than Tan.

By the way, I agree with your view, it's my board and I'll do what I want, if you don't like it then go, very similar to VT but he softened the blow with a one hundred million pound sweetener, are you planning a similar sweetener for all the board users ?
Not really Gwyn, as u said at the meeting, he is God and u would do what ever he says, u would lick his arse were your words, well he is not my god and this thread states everyone is allowed their opinions, but u said in the meeting Tan is like a god and we should not even ask to speak to him, on here your allowed your opinions.
Also we're talking about our club we love, have feelings for etc etc, you can't compare that to a forum.
Your right, we are talking about a club we purport to love, so that love should mean much much more than a colour or a badge, to me and many others it is much much more and to risk losing it or having it harmed for anything such as a colour is beyond us.
And yes I did say we all need to kiss a bit of arse if it means we get the stability and investment we all been praying for, perhaps I am different, i admit to being a Cardiff whore, the love I have for the club is unconditional, and if it takes a bit of kiss arse to keep it going, then so be it.
People know of my sad loss of my daughter, and nothing can compare to that as most will understand, again my love for her was and still is unconditional. If you were in the position where someone you loved was under threat of death, what steps would you take to save them, kiss arse, I'd kiss arse chew nettles and offer to cut my fingers off, that is what you do when you have unconditional love for someone or something.
Ask yourself is the stance your taking for yourself and your personal choice, or is it the best one for the club that you say you love so much.
As for personal opinion, is that why Wez was banned yesterday, for having an opinion.
