Would You Immediately Renew Your Season Ticket If..

Sat Jan 12, 2013 11:40 pm

The club announced we would revert to blue for next season?

I think it would prove to be such a positive statement, especially given that it looks likely that we'll be going up, that a lot of people would immediately renew.

Obviously, given the fact that promotion is looking likely, there will be a big uptake of season tickets anyway, even though I'm sure many fans who've waited all their lives to see Cardiff in the top flight will be disappointed if we're not playing in the colour we have played in for by far the majority of this time.

Personally, I will be waiting to see if we get promoted. If we don't, I don't care what you call me, but I won't be renewing. The experience of watching Cardiff at home is so far removed from what I''ve been used to that I don't think it's worthwhile any more, and if we somehow conspired to avoid promotion yet again, I don't think I could endure another similar season.

But if we go up - of course I'll be there, and I fully anticipate that once we're in the Premiership, the buzz in the crowd will pick up.

I know it's almost a certainty that it will be another year in red at home next season, but I actually think the club should make a statement well before the end of this season to clarify this. In addition, I think a clear and concise explanation with regard to the reason for the change, which we still have never had.

I think a huge majority will be renewing next month irrelevant of any statement.

Perhaps I should have left my own plans out of this post.

The most significant thing for me is that I think the club has to make an announcement about the team strip for next season before the end of this season.

Call me a glory hunter if you like. I've been going to watch Cardiff for over 20 years, and a season ticket holder for much of that time.

For the last 10 years, I've been waiting to see Cardiff get promoted into the premiership, which I fully anticipate happening at last this season, and I will enjoy seeing the dream realised.

However, in the very unlikely event that doesn't happen, well...

Why would they do that? Any announcement would just disrupt sales which will prob be huge.

They would be naive to say anything right now.

Oh c'mon this is football.

No one is forcing anyone to renew. Do it's or don't.

Think there is a bit of confusion here.

Obviously I'm expecting by far the majority of people to renew, especially as it looks like we're going up, and I think there will be very few people who won't renew because of the shirt colour.

I'm simply saying that, for clarification purposes, I think the club should state well before the end of this season what colour the team will be playing in next season.

I don't expect that if they announce that we will be playing in red it will have much affect on overall season ticket renewals.

However, if they announce we will be playing in blue, I would imagine that the immediate uptake of renewals would be immense.
