Vincent Tan Unites all Cardiff fans.

Sun Dec 22, 2013 7:53 pm

With his comments and actions over the last week, Vincent Tan has United all Cardiff City fans worldwide.

After the fantastic scenes at Anfield, where our fans were outstanding, our supporters become one again. Supporter unity and bad press coverage has made Vincent Tan backtrack on his threat to sack Malky.

I for one admit I was fooled for longer than some with the rebrand, believing there was a bigger better reason for it. However the blinkers are off now. Tan has made one step in the right direction by withdrawing his threat to sack Malky, he now has to make a further bigger step towards redeeming himself at next weeks Trust meeting and state that Cardiff are going back Blue next season and that the beermat badge will be changed.

Anything less than restoring us back to Blue and changing that badge is now unacceptable to the masses.

I accepted the rebrand reluctantly believing Tan had a good reason for it. Tans actions the last week has made me believe he has no reasons for his actions and just acts off impulse with no consideration for the best interests of our club. Hope that makes better sense.

According to our West Ham Agent the Red Seats are en route...

If true, I would not expect a big step backwards by Mr Tan...

Top post . His rebrand was purely personal preference of a mad man who is far too used to getting his own way . We need our colours and badge back ASAP .

His crazy actions have given the fans a global audience . Let's use it .

He brought the idea of sacking him in the first place? One step forward in the right direction which easily could have been avoided in the first place.

do you have this message on copy and paste? it seems you pop up with this everytime somebody is happy that we are not sacking our manager.

personally i didnt accept the rebrand and still go to games when i can (finances stopped me from getting a ST, not morals) but being honest i am more likley to feel vexed by decisions that effect on the field displays (managers, owners trying to influence tactics, getting rid of successful staff members, or the days when we were a selling club) than things that don't (colour of shirts etc). so just to answer in advance: no, if malky goes i wont support what ever team he goes too, and no, i won't stop supporting the city

There is a lot more to this that we don't know I feel, not that I don't agree that Mackay has been appallingly treated.
