Cardiff Dragons and Cardiff City Dragons names registered

Thu Mar 07, 2013 4:14 pm

Two companies called Cardiff Dragons Football Club Limited and Cardiff City Dragons have been registered with Companies House.

The registration of the name Cardiff Dragons Football Club Limited was made on Tuesday by a businessman who insisted on remaining anonymous while Cardiff City Dragons has today emerged as a new registered name.

However, neither have links with the Championship leaders.

The businessman who set up the Cardiff Dragons Football Club Limited said: “Obviously there was all the rumours they were going to start a new name so, as I’m a bit of an entrepreneur, I thought ’well, if they’re going to do that then I’ll get the registered name, the company name, for that and if they wanted it they can have it off me’.

“I’ve got a few mates who are Cardiff fans but other than that I’ve got no involvement with the club at all. It’s a bit of a laugh, it’s a bit of joke to be honest.

“I’ve done it as half a laugh and half actually if they want that company name in the future then they can have it off me.”

A spokesman for the Bluebirds also confirmed the registration of Cardiff Dragons Football Club has nothing to do with the club and any speculation is unwarranted and incorrect.

Cardiff owner Tan Sri Vincent Tan released a statement last Thursday assuring fans he is not considering renaming the club.

“I can assure all supporters that we will not be changing our name from Cardiff City Football Club, a club I am very proud to be a part of,” he said.

“Our name is our identity and remains at our core. I would not want any of our supporters to be concerned that this change would be made, hoping that this personal commitment from myself removes any fears.”

Meanwhile, chief executive Simon Lim has been appointed interim chairman at Cardiff City after Dato Chan Tien Ghee left his post due to business commitments.

Hmmmmmmmmmm :(

It's just people registering the names after all of this nonsense so if he does want to make our name Cardiff Dragons etc. then he'll have to buy it off them.

You're not allowed to incorporate a company with a view to make profit off the name anymore so he's wasted his money.

Not only that, I reckon if he wanted to change the name it would be "Cardiff City Red Dragons"

I know the lad who's registered the names. Bluebird through and through says he will NOT sell. Good on him I say at least he's done something positive.

Thick as shit?

It was registered by some random guy trying to make a quick buck if the club ever wanted to buy them.

His name is on CCMB in one of the threads.

It has nothing to do with City.

Couldn't answer that but like I said, he's done it because he couldn't bring himself to support Cardiff City Dragons.

Cardiff will simply complain to the company name adjudicator and the guy will be forced to change his name.
