Surely people can see this for what it is, this is not confirmation of Vincent Tan having a U turn, this is simply a case of the Chairman managing to get a small extension on the three month stay of execution that has been in place since October.
If Tan thinks Liverpool was a problem that will go away with this oh so generous stay of execution, then he is more deluded that we thought.
The Chairman is crapping it "no banners for Tan out, have banners saying talk, talk" yeh OK.Best of luck, he's opened the cage to the bear pit, now deal with it.
Malky holds all the aces here,Malky will only decide to stay out of loyalty to his players and staff and his genuine love for the fans.What's Malky's worse scenario- get his full pay in one lump sum for the next three years and then walk straight into another possibly even better job.
A lot of people reading this will see my stance as a U turn, well my conscience is clean and time over I would take the same stance all over again, along with the majority of other fans we accepted the rebrand as a deal to save the club, and he got away with it.
If enough people had felt that strongly opposed to it, then what we witnessed in Liverpool would have been seen at every game, or on the other hand huge gaps in the stadium would have sent the message loud and clear.
A good few people couldn't accept the rebrand and walked away,and fair play to them, those that walked away but constantly criticise those that didn't and those that have a different view to them are another matter.
This adage of all these people on waiting lists etc being called plastics really doesn't wash, haven't we as a club been crying out for these fans to come in numbers and now they have people look down their noses at them.
I was then and still am grateful for the Malaysian's coming in when they did, I don't remember too many dissenters then, in fact some of the biggest critics Hmmm were pictured providing a welcome group standing in the club foyer with Malaysian flags etc.and nothing wrong with that because it saved us.
The rebrand was a move to far for some and for others a price and sacrifice we would accept, not simply to get into the Premiership as some would claim, but simply to stay in business, the HMRC weren't bluffing, they were out to liquidate us, not admin and ten points deducted but closure, yeh, rename, reform at best calor Gas South League, but more likely Welsh League division three.
We had no cards in our hands to play poker, but now I feel we have cards and a few aces in our hand, Tan is to deep into us to simply wreck us out of spite, he needs his money back and to get that he needs to sell us as a going concern, hopefully the new investors wwill be a bit more knowledgeable with regard to football and culture and dealing with people, as fans we can but hope, but what ever the situation is at present, it is still a hundred times better than it was three years ago, the roller coaster is till rolling strap yourself in.

the threat of sacking Malky has caused this outrageous U Turn when the rebrand you accepted without blinking????
Why this loyalty to Malky? If Everton had come calling in the summer he would have been gone without a thought for the fans. He even refused to deny it on national TV!
I support CCFC. Not a chairman, Not an owner, not a player and not a manager.

Gwyn did not just accept the rebrand, he bought the red, wore the red, embraced the red, belittled those that stayed BLUE, next he will be telling you he was there years ago
