Would there? Or would everybody roll over, and beg the Malaysians for more money. That's what has happened so far

Why get all wound up about something that hasn't even been spoken about? There's a lot and ifs and maybes going on that deflects from the reality of where we are at the moment

This whole name change is just an assumption by us fans. It was never on the table for discussion.

I don't see why some are getting so wound up about it, we will cross that bridge if it comes.

Even if/when they change our name the majority of the plastics on here would still support them. Oh, of course, at first there would be a show of anger and rebellion, but then they would say "meh I can live with the name change" and "who cares what they call us, they will always be Cardiff City to us". Some of our fans are pathetic and a disgrace to football. No wonder we are in the mess we are in :roll:

bollocks is what I say looks like lots of people would sell this club down the river.Change badge change colour bollocks to it you may as well change the lot then in it.Sell outs.

We need to wait and see what happens but i no we are all entitled to an opinion and mine is if you agree to radical change of colour and badge then you are just a sell out just my opinion.

You can stick your Red kit and badge change right up your arses.

What the hell is all this scare mongering for the change of name has never been mentioned except by people on this board, only the colour change and style of badge, if some of you cannot live with that, then hard luck, you need to grow up. We have been fighting for years for good finance, and now there's a chance of it coming some are still not satisfied,like I've said before some of you wake up angry and go to bed angry, if it wasn't this it would be something else,Monty Python 's words to thier song was "Allways look on the bright side of life" some fans should change that to "Allways look on the dark side of life".

No one has said they will change our name, all some are saying incl myself if they ever did, then I would never set foot in there again. But of course its crossed my mind, I even asked the question in the first meeting and the reply was they could not comment. 2nd meeting they said it wont happen.

Then maybe we should all buy front door mats with WELCOME on then wear them on are backs if that's what your afraid of because where does it end , if people think the owners will just walk away like there going to pack a box and leave then there wrong as they would lose everything they put in so far. That's why they would have to look at other investors if need be. Eitherway this threads gone mad over one mans opinion and it really shows how easy it is online for people to go way off the OP post to start with. :lol:

They wouldnt lose everything Bluebird as their loans to us at the moment are secured.

I have e-mailed the FA asking for clarification on the name change rule, im almost positive after the MK dons fiasco it was deemed not allowed. Ill post response when i get it.

Make your mind up then as one min you said they would liquadate us and we will have no club yet now there loans are secured u say so eitherway they would lose money but could and wouldn't fold the club as ur saying that's the only other option if we don't go red/nickname change when clearly its not ares or there only option.

Re: I CAN SEE THIS HAPPENING IN THE NEXT 7 DAYS

If our name is changed and we become an advert for Aisa , which we almost are , I will become an armchair supporter like 90% of football fans. Maybe going to a couple of games a season but will not invest financialy in the club as I have done for many years. I will always support CCFC 100% but not in the same way. Merthyr may find its crowds increase as it will be a better footy day out with the lads with no plastics. :ayatollah:

I'm grateful to the Malaysians for keeping the club afloat for the past few years but I honestly hope they can find other investors who understand a bit about football identity and culture in the UK because tbh they have not got a clue.

i know what you are saying Alfie but when we go to away games we cheer on CCFC regardless of the shirt colour. I dislike red home shirts and wont buy my kids them but tbh i was more annoyed with white away kit last season.


Gareth, there is no way that it will just be left at red shirts though. The Malaysians have already showed scant regard for our identity and because so many fans have simply rolled over and accepted it, inevitably we will have a red stadium and maybe even a name change further down the line. As welcome as their cash has been over the past few years , I really hope that they are able to find another buyer asap. Take it from me once we are playing in red,in a red stadium,with a dragon badge we ain't ever going to get our identity back again.

Fight it. Keep Cardiff Blue.



Well said. People on here far to happy to sell our identity for cash. Pathetic and embarrassing.

Yes - I'd prefer it if they were called Cardiff City, playing in blue and known as the Bluebirds, but the 21st century is well and truly here now, and , reluctantly, we have to move on.


So just out of curiosity and I am not saying this will def happen, just say they were called say FC Malaysia, would you continue to support them ? I actually think your saying you would :shock:
I would never set foot in there again, but thats just me.


Yes, I would actually. And I suspect plenty of others would if the team was successful - the demographics of football fans are changing. Of course, I may have to stop going anyway as the season tickets will probably go up tenfold!



So from what you're saying football fans are changing into a bunch of wet sell out cunts.

Re: I CAN SEE THIS HAPPENING IN THE NEXT 7 DAYS

Not sure how I feel about it all to be honest. Somethings are just not right.

I visited Thailand a few months back saw plenty of Chelsea posters and promotions. Didn't see many United, Liverpool or Arsenal stuff.
How can we still be the bluebirds when we play in Red and the main feature of our badge is a dragon?
What about the stadium seats? Why keep them blue when red is our home colour?
What's happens when we get new owners? Who could be from the UK or a different continent?

As I said I'm not sure what to make of it all. Think our main objective first is to get to the premier league, cement our place there then look to expand on a global scale. Who from Asia or worldwide is going to support a championship side?? I couldn't name any side who won the second division in any league in Europe so why would anyone know who we are? Yes wev been in 2 major finals the last couple of years and it gets us exposure but it doesn't mean shit if wer not in the premiership. Wer still only supported in South Wales and further afield in the UK.

Banks always get there money 1st as for the so called assets, the grounds not even ares 100%, the squad is worth nothing near the money the owners have put in so far and the land around the ground does not belong to us so like i said the OWNERS will lose money eitherway. Thats why they will not walk away but find other investors if they decide to leave as im sure the banks would eat up most of whatever money was there before anyone gets anything at a lower price or they will stay and do what they want with or without the fans . :ayatollah:
