is top flight success just another sell out club destroyer?

Take a look at Cardiff we may be playing in red but at least all of our players are representing uk bar a couple of players...
its basically from how I see it... you change colour for success.
or you change owners for success and field a complete team of foreign players week in week out.
yes they would play for Cardiff but would that not be yet another sell out...

we are selling out who we are and what we stand for to bring in a squad of foreign megastars who hold little care or sentiment to what Cardiff city stand for.

I dont believe however we look at it poses much difference I think a clubs identity should come from home grown talent and passionate players who arent just signing for the biggest purse.
suarez for instance he doesnt give 2 shits for the fans he was ready to leave and shit on the club. Its players who come from outside this counry no connection and no loyalty.
if we were to succeed I gaurantee the likes of blues unite wouldn't be to bothered even tho our core club values would still be robbed in the same way we exchanged red for success.

I dont have a problem with in personally
but I feel its a relevant comparison to being against a sell out ownership based on a red jersey
