If you want blue back you want Tan out because that is the only way you are getting blue back. This utopian dream of lets convince Tan or hopefully he'll change his mind is not happening.
He let us know the score in his speech. I wish more people took more notice of what he actually said. If you want blue back and want Tan out, fair enough. You are entitled to that view. If you think forcing Tan out is too extreme over colours/identity then fair enough, you are entitled to that opinion. Each should be respected for their own opinion based on what the club means to them.
There is however no option of Tan staying and us returning to blue.
This is Cardiff City fc its worth a fighting for however hopeless

Ive joined the trust and will be campaigning to them to use a blue kit every away game, a morr realistic target under VT.

What I will say and I'll say this as a reluctant red;
'If you want blue back and at any cost then just be honest with yourself and say you want Tan out and fight to get him out'.
Protests, crying on social media about it, calling him a dictator - this ain't going to bother Tan. I've studied the business world as part of my degree as I want to go self employed and its a tough world and Tan is at the top end of it. This stuff is small fry to him. Affirmative action is needed if you truly believe your cause. At least have some conviction in what you want to achieve. Blue back is only achievable by forcing Tan out or Tan leaving of his own accord.
Im not going to join a Tan out cause because (1) I would value his investment over the kit colour and (2) i've got other things going on in my life etc. Im admitting that but I wont judge others for standing up and fighting for what is right. I have my views, you have yours and the guy down the road has his. Each to their own.
I do think however, the current attempts are piss in the wind attempts Tan wont even take seriously. If you want blue back then get Tan out and stand by that statement. If you want Tan to continue to invest and reluctantly accept his rebrand then do as im doing now and ride out the storm. There is no reason to keep bleating on about the issue.

Totally agree with you MIMG.
While Tan is in charge we will always have a red home kit.
I would prefer if people were campaigning to play in Blue away, or to get a better badge, or get a red and blue home kit. However campaigning to play in Blue at home is pissing in the wind and dividing Cardiff City fans.

This would have the only accurate answer weather us the fans want it or not .I am sure this would be easy to organise and it would be fair.
The trouble is it should of taken place in the beginning to assess the fans thoughts before any colour change took place.
I reckon if the vote came in and it was a unanimous no to the red kit Tan still wouldnt move on it .
The problem is no vote ever took place to gauge the fans views never to late .
This situation will drag on and on for years unless tan gives us a fair vote and I think as fans we deserve to be able to have a say and vote .
Before people start saying its Tans money he can do what he wants let me remind you this is a business yes but its still a football club and as a result the fans are at the forefront of the club and should be allowed to contribute on such key desicions such as changing the colour of the kit.
A referendum would be fair would it not.

I'll tell you what MIGHT get it changed and that is YOU to put your hands deep into your substantial pockets and hand over around £80m+ to Vincent Tan![]()
If you are a couple of quid short, I am sure your fellow 'blue at any cost' mates will 'chip' in![]()
