Not really,we've become immune to all the shenanigans that goes on at your club in the last few years.It's almost expected and predictable now.

No gloating or having a field day, seems you've got an owner who doesn't have a clue. We've been there in the past ourselves.

Many people, including a fair section of your own fans warned you.

We had no choice then and no choice now, it's either get on with supporting the team or not. Until now VT hasn't done anything like this, the rebrand was handled badly but I think that was more due to people inside the club rather than entirely VT.

Of course you had the choice.The moment he decided to change your teams colours, every cardiff city fan should have boycotted every match until he done a u-turn.Either that or make his life hell inside the stadium.You did neither.

Fair enough about having no choice, I can accept that as a club you had very little choice. As for the re-brand, it should never have happened, it wasn't handled badly, it just should have never taken place.

I don't think anyone's particularly surprised, we had a field day when the rebrand began but everyone knows your not run very well.

I don't think you understand. We needed VT because of our perilous financial state, running him out of town (which is what would have happened if we had done that) would have threatened the clubs existence.

I understand what VT was trying to do but I don't think he understood our culture in doing so.

You might have been deducted points or at worse drop down a league.I'd take that over losing your identity.Can't speak for others,mind you.I also think the pro reds are making out your plight was a lot worse than it actually was.All to welcome tan and his plan.

I can't agree, the guy obviously has his wits about him to be the success that he has been in business. I'm sure someone would've advised him that it would cause problems. From what I read though, when he doesn't get his own way or someone disagrees with him, then they are out of the door.

He knew full well what he was doing and didn't care about the culture.

Fans agreed to back the players and manager inside the stadium which is how it should be
Its easy for you to say do this or do that when your clearly anti cardiff

I think all this from Ridsdale taking over had been sam hammam , stadium wouldn't have been built if he was there , ridsdale brokers a deal with tan , tan becomes the big devil makes a bit of cash and Sam takes over the reins once again

Tan is just someone who stepped in to facilitate sams return as the great saviour , merely a business deal :o

We were in a terrible state, either a massive drop down the leagues Portsmouth style (best scenario) or liquidation Rangers style were the options but then I don't expect a Swans fan to know many truths about Cardiff.

Lose our identity? It's just the colour of a strip, my feelings for the club and feeling when watching them hasn't changed at all. It is still the same club as I've always supported and this week only proves that haha :laughing6:

If we had not git in to the prem and were still in the lower leagues then I think you would have fought thus tw*t much more.
But us getting to the prem made it a case of was a case at all costs u mudt alls be there..
But by doing so you have mad a huge mistake that what ever way it turns out its u the fsns who will feel the pain.
If he pulls out you are in massive debt and would fall back down through the leagues, if he stays he is hoing to do as he pleases with u and dans will become more pissed off.
