Fri Feb 14, 2014 2:03 pm

Have you ever thought that ? What's Franchise Man Tan got up his sleeve ?

Just the home for championship/ Premiership football ? ----- do you really believe that ?

I had a theory but I kept it to myself...

Vincent Tan's mind

Problem Fans turning on us cos we're relegated and we dress like Liverpool
Reaction Create a distraction to divert attention of the failings
Solution Chuck on an extra 5,000 seats, show the fans the progress being made

This is Franchise Tan .... Can you see him having a big property in Cardiff the Capital just for football ? Used what once every 14 days during season and closed during the summer when in a prime location ?

Hmmmmmmmmmmm.......... Seats in, named up ............ The franchise continues I'm sure :thumbup:

Every season there will be a gimmick of some kind to pacify the fans...typical mind-control techniques. Don't need a 35K seater-stadium

Weve known since the stadium was built that the name would change eventually.

Hows about you just come out and say what your getting at? You seem to be ITK, or rather you make out you are.

Lets have it...

Maybe he's going to move the seats right the way back and put an athletics track around the pitch so the fans get a shit view :lol:

Your scraping the barrel day.it's a natural progression to expand the stadium,the stadium was built with expansion in mind if we were promoted to the premier.No hidden agenda's.
If i were you I'd be more concerned with your move,your not going to get any sort of atmosphere in that stadium.

I hope they are using decent building materials on this extention, not importing cheap stuff from the far east.

Maybe that should be addressed isn't every Club the same ?

No that's not the case at all. There lies your difference.

Every real football fan should be concerned regards Franchise. Wasted on a newbie like you with an avatar showing a red shirt loud and proud.

The obsession must be you lot with red tinted spectacles and can't see the smoke through the trees. It's hilarious to read some of your bollocks :lol: :lol:

Natural progression for what ? Championship football or other franchise revenue streams ?

I have no concerns regards our move, not at all, in fact looking forward to it, we are a doing a man City, in other words doing it correctly. Just bigger. I see they have to extend again.

No that's not the case at all. There lies your difference.

Every club is the same in that they try to generate as much income as possible,ain't that right?,rugby league,concerts,boxing there has been all sorts,as long as it don't effect the football,I don't see the problem,obviously with the topic you ve started,clearly you do even though your own club(which was once cardiff then west ham or what ever way you done it)will be doing the same

Why do you only post on this message board? Is it because the members are easier to wind up ? Just wondering,
