Chester City turned down a re- brand and look.....

where they have ended up! According to a Chester supporter on the radio this morning, he was saying that Chester were given the opportunity in the late 90s, by the Duke of Westminster, who apparently has an estate up there, to have a cash injection that would have settled all debt. In exchange he wanted the team to change the kit, to the gold and green of Westminsters family and change the crest. The club rejected his request and ended up going bust and relegated over and over. Now they ain't got a pot to piss in and are stuck in the lower divisions, however they do still have their pride in tact and play in the same colours and badge that they always have done.

Looking forward to seeing the next few sets of our accounts . No doubt will see millions of pounds in revenue from outside of the uk flowing in . That's what the rebrands about yeah ? , not the personal preference of the owner . Pretty sure accounting standards require such disclosure . So how many years until we crack china lads ? 3/4 ?

What about the hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of football clubs the world over who have been taken over by new owners and have succeeded in getting promotion without butchering their club colours, insulting the clubs icons and whacking a shite badge on the shirt?

And what about the clubs that went bust without silly rebrands? Halifax, Darlington, Accrington, Newport...

Some of you lot are so passive, it's embarrassing, just really cringy..Almost taking glee in seeing the bluebird disappear.

Stand up for your club. Tan HATES blue, he HATES the bluebird.

^^^ this . The guy would have made just as much cash from the club upon an eventual sale if they had remained in blue .

If only they said yes. They'd probably be in Europe by now.

No revelation there then. Of course success increases attendances. Works for every club in the land. There are limits though and Cardiff are a much bigger entity than Chester and I doubt they climb the divisions

Well said! Some people on this forum are totally pathetic, trying to bring up anything they can to point score to suit their agenda.

I don't understand what you're trying to say with "And what about the clubs that went bust without silly rebrands? Halifax, Darlington, Accrington, Newport..."

I don't think VT hates blue, just loves his red. We will be blue again IMO

Chester City are only ONE division below where they were when they folded. Unfortunately some of our fans just want success at any cost. Yes, I wanted success when I started watching us in the old Division 4, but the reason I supported Cardiff City was because they were my local team and it was for the feeling of pride and belonging, NOT because we were successful!

However shit we were when I started watching us in the late 80's, my feeling of pride and belonging supporting my local club would never be taken away...until Tan arrived and rebranded us!

And Chester are non-league. Probably their level but their history suggests league 2 at best. They won't be another stoke, WBA, Swansea or Cardiff City

Someone tried! Can't see their potential attracting anyone of note.
