Yeah a great spokesperson... Someone who claims to dislike the rebrand so much that she refused to turn up to a game last season, yet once we get promoted, she announced she wants to go to as many games as possible. Surely if you're going to protest to that extent, at least stick to it... don't crawl back once a product of the rebrand (premiership football) has been delivered :?

If that's true then she should stay outside the ground while games are being played.Make her point in the carpark.
She sounds like an attention seeker. :ayatollah:

She says it about halfway through the interview, that she didn't go last season because she disagrees with the rebrand. If you can't support the club in the Championship don't turn up in the Premiership while the circumstances regarding the rebrand are still the same. If we'd gone back blue and she was coming back then fair enough but I suppose it just goes to show everybody has a price! <o>

Utter rubbish? Have you even listened to the interview? I'm not making anything up, she said it herself.

I respect people's opinions on the rebrand whether they are for or against it, but if you're going to be either for or against, make sure you stick to it like she has. Glory supporting at its finest.

Of course there is the argument the more blue in the stand the better.

An ok interview. It's odd she spoke highly of Weshness which was (in part) one of the aspects of the brand Tan felt would appeal to Cardiff fans. For me one of the reasons I liked Cardiff to begin with was because it was very non-Welsh in a country where having a dead language is seen as a huge plus by far too many people.

It is a bit rich to suddenly come back with promotion to the Prem achieved. I don't really think that's why she's going back, but then I think it's a bit rich for anyone who has a "holier than thou" attitude to go to games.

The interview was better than the last piece I read where she had a go at her butcher. If the BU wanted to be taken completely seriously it needed to be above such things. Understand that to some people the rebrand is annoying, but acceptable for whatever reason and still wish for these people's support. Not act as though you are a super fan for hating the rebrand and those that are in anyway not as pushy against it are less of a fan than you.
