" Plenty happening in announcements at Cardiff City Jan 2015 "


Lets hope its more than just this
Cardiff City will be announcing either another price freeze or cheap season ticket holders for existing and maybe in even ex ones.


Our Fans are planning 3 major protests in Jan/Feb/March 2015 :thumbright: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

City trying to halt them with promises they intend to announce within the next 3 weeks or even may be before.

For me to stop these large protests and which two will embarrass Tan in Malaysia, where it will hurt him most, for me it has to be not another Blue kit away next season, BUT BLUE AND OUR BLUEBIRDS BADGE ON OUR HOME KIT MUST BE GUARANTEED TO RETURN NEXT SEASON :thumbright: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluescarf:

Prize freeze isn't good enough... Who's going to pay prem prices for poor champ football.. They need to come up with something or thousands won't renew! Fans have lost all confidence in the club!

How can they do a freeze when people are paying different prices in the same part of the ground? You have people on the current freeze plus others that bought after the freeze.

The price freeze wont do it for me either .... i`m bored with going to cardiff now, the whole match day experience is shit and i think returning to blue will at least bring the supporters together again and create some sort of atmosphere ... if Tan wants we`ll compromise and let him use that red kit AWAY from home :bluescarf:

Prices are outrageous as it is so a price freeze changes nothing.

they could extend the price freeze for fans (sorry customers) on the existing price freeze. But personally I think they need to review the whole pricing structure and lower the ticket prices (I'm currently paying 399(on price freeze) but I would question my sanity renewing at that price with the shower of shite we are given to watch atm.

i agree the structure needs to be looked at. I mean £700 for the dearest part of the ground is pathetic for poor div 1 football. I think there will be about a 10% reduction with the usual fans are important bullshit.

Nothing but a reversal of the rebrand will be enough to placate the fans, the atmosphere around the club is going to get a hell of a lot worse in the next few months, as I fully expect the team to get poor to mediocre results from now on and Slade may not even make it to the end of the season, causing even more disruption. All brought about by the fantastic leadership of Vincent Tan :laughing6:

A review of ticket prices, stewards being fan friendly, a blue home kit with a prominent bluebird on our badge. I won't renew my ticket otherwise

Enjoy Saturday's at the garden centre or St David's 2 :laughing6:

Seriously though, no way in a millions years that's going to happen. Wish it would though :ayatollah:

If they reduced them to a fiver I wouldn't get one. It's not about the price. At the moment I wouldn't walk in that ground if you paid me! If we returned to blue id buy one without a doubt, even if we are relegated.

Re: Plenty happening in announcements at Cardiff C Jan 2015

They obviously know about the unrest, protests & the threatened boycott/not renewing amongst a lot of fans so I think they will announce a reduction in prices across the board to try to placate fans.

Re: Plenty happening in announcements at Cardiff C Jan 2015

Sun Dec 21, 2014 6:07 pm

The whole match day experience has had it, I'm afraid to say is boring now, the only thing that will ignite the club again will be back to blue at home. A price freeze will not stop thousands and thousands deserting the City :bluescarf:

Can give them away free as far as I'm concerned, I won't be there while they play in red. :old:

I couldn't give a toss about season ticket prices or players going or comming . Vote with your feet and boycot the ccs unroll tan sees sence or fucks off . All I see online is people moaning about the rebrand and tan yet the next they want new players or reduced season tickets yet there off for protests its cringeworthy to say the least. I'm off to asda later to moan about the price of beer then buy a trolly full. :roll: if u want the club back vote with your feet otherwise pipe down and take it up the shitbox and all that comes with it as your letting it happen.

Re: Plenty happening in announcements at Cardiff C Jan 2015

100% not renewing unless the horrendous rebrand is reversed. Back to blue at home and the Bluebird back to being the main part of our badge. I agree with earlier posts that the whole match day experience now due to the red crap is awful and if they made the season ticket free I will not attend next season until we are blue again. #nobluenorenew

I've told the club I will renew if they return to blue. Cannot see me renewing.

To counter act the poor form as they try to sell STs soon the club are going to have to reduce the prizes. A continuation of the freeze will no help. Problem for the club is I don't think they can afford to bring the prizes down.

He has to incentivise me and my daughters big time, not only a massive prize reduction but a return to blue. 250 mile round trip for a shambles like yesterday costs me 50 quid in petrol, 7 quid for the bridge plus food and beverages at least twice a month, that equates to 200 quid a month excluding my season ticket, he can do one, poole town for me now and a west end show with the family every other month. No brainer uncle Vinny at the moment. You can make this very very simple, not just our fans but the world over now you are seen as a prize fool for what you have done.

Every time I read there is going to be an announcement my heart races as I think it going to read we are going to return to blue. I'm going to wait until I hear this announcement as nothing else is good enough for me.

Price and prize, you get the gist of my post though, bloody spell check.

I want to see total no compromise Blue kit and Original badge.

Football to the common man is an addiction. Every year when season ticket renewal comes around I question my loyalty to the club. I loved it back in the day when you had the paper season ticket and they knew you personally as there were only 1000 or so tickets sold but that era has long gone.

Like i said.... to get addicted to something it has to create that buzz, that high... but when someone comes along and changes what you are actually addicted to..... it is very very easy to quit.

There are 3 key factors in all this, obviously the rebrand, the end of the 'golden ticket' prices and the shit football on display.
Maybe you can deal with one of these factors, but when 3 are dished up at the same time it is a bitter pill to swallow.

I feel it is now or never. I will not renew my ticket after 25+ years until we go back to blue.

Im sure many feel the same, but I simple cannot deal with the lies . Every week there is some kind of 'apology' from the club. Whether it is from Slade or the board or the players there is always an apology. GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER AND THERE WILL BE NO NEED TO APOLOGISE EVERY BLOODY WEEK!

Thats about it from me.... I don't post much on the forum, but felt I had to say my bit on this. Ta.
