Fair play to him, trying his best to honour our tradition before we were rebranded and lost the dragon.![]()
The main parts of the emblem were a goat and a seahorse - shall we have those over the dragon VT?
“It’s not an Asian dragon but their national symbol. You can’t have a red dragon on a blue jersey, so the jersey had to change too."
By his own logic, you can't have a bluebird on a red shirt either..
He didn't want the bluebird, we did, he put on there to appease us.![]()
"I created some controversy with the colours. There was a lot of resistance. Most of the fans and most of the board were against it,”
At least he's realised that... Fans & not customers?! At least he's learning![]()
Is that a positive off Chuckles, and yes he is learning and at an astonishing rate, he got us up in two years where many others have failed.![]()
"The blogs got pretty nasty, but I would like to think I changed Cardiff’s luck."
The only thing that changed Cardiff's luck was CT's money. If you are seriously suggesting that the Red is the "luck" then you are seriously delusional.

And you think we would have had the same squad without Tan's full backing, if anyone is delusional, you need to look in the mirror.

The goat and seahorse were much bigger - shall we just stick those on too? We did win a cup with them on after all.

Sorry, are you suggesting that because my stance is well known, I can't make comments on the recent media interview by our chairman?

No, I'm being sarcastic.
I kind of like having a sense of humour almost...Although many need Common Sense before they develop a sense of humour...

Wakes up, goes into bathroom and brushes his teeth whilst stating into the mirror thinking evil thoughts about a Malaysian Buisnessman.
After heading out for a few hours he heads back home for some alphabetti on toast..
He spells out the words. "I HATES TAN" with his betti on toast.
When he was out earlier he purchased several bottles of St Tropez.
He now proceeds to pour these bottles down the toilet.
Because he hates Tan.
He goes online and posts various items of anti tan propaganda then occasionally agrees with his FRIEND!! Paxman.
He then spends the remainder of the evening giving prank phone calls to various Sun-Bed and beauty salons,
BECAUSE HE HATES TAN.![]()

If someone is basing the promotion on a colour, I think they are deluded. Ok?
