Fair shout, but we were threatened with no club at all and certain Red fans went our there spreading total shit and frightening fans.

Only for 5 mins did I ever believe we would have No club. Within days Allan Whitley and Malky confirmed in person to me, at worse we would be relegated.

At worse we would get relagated that sounds pretty bad to me ,we would end up like pompey relagation after relagation no cardiff fan wanted that surely

I don't think many fans were frightened i think the vast majority just didn't want to protest and just got on with supporting their club not all fans want to be vocal.
Plus the KCB was one big joke and would have never got anything good going.
This season this new group has the potential to grow if they do it right and good luck to them. Having the likes of Citysoul abusing fans on here for not going won't help their cause though..

Perhaps some of the pro-Tan appeasers of 2012-13 have now come to their senses and got a dose of regret regarding what Mr Tan's oriental vision entails.

We didn't kick up a fuss because tan was gonna pull out his money and we would get liquidated and go to league 2. I'm actually glad there are so many people still against the rebrand (me included) :ayatollah: :malky: :ayatollah:

There was a fuss. If you remember VT originally backed down and said we would play in blue.

Unfortunately he went back on this after some fans cacked their pants when he hinted he was pulling the financial plug on us.

We are in a far better position this year with the pl money and parachute payments if we were to get relegated

I thought we did kick up a fuss, after which they decided to keep the blue home shirt.

A few weeks later, after people were sending begging letters to Tan/Tg they decided to go ahead and change to red anyway.

Relegated, big wage bill, selling players etc..downward spiral.

Being relegated from the championship could've have caused more financial problems.
