I'll never forgive him because of the rebrand.





Some did 'Boo' him, JonCCFC and a lot of it came from your area of the ground (at the back of 16/117) so I assume you joined in (?) with that ;)

No issues with that (as we have discussed it is YOUR perrogative) and I have to say it was, in the main, pretty good natured and inoffensive by standards :ayatollah:

The irony was two-fold:

1: It (the chanting) was pretty much drowned out at the front by the applause from the majority, and

2: A lot of those chanting had RED shirts/scarves on as they sung

As I said, it's not a 'go' it's more an observation that despite the rhetoric MOST accept the rebrand ; no matter how reluctantly ;) :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

I didn't boo or clap, although I joined in with "the blues are going up" and "we're Cardiff City, we'll always be blue" which was sung by the Canton and the Ninian as he was walking around the pitch.

But you are mostly right. At the end of the day, he was clapped by the majority because without him we probably wouldn't be in the Premier League, but at the same time the majority wants us to be in blue which is why we were singing those pro-blue chants. I'm sure you can agree with that. :ayatollah:


I disagree
loads who sang that don't care what colour we play in i saw loads with red on singing it its just an old song about going up..

Then why weren't we singing "the reds are going up"?
