END OF AN ERA !

:old: :old: :old:
Last Saturday I walked out at half time at my discusst at the performance that I saw in the first half and recent matches,after watching the Bluebirds for 61 years I thought I Would be ashamed to say that but I am not, it's not Tan that bothers me or the changing of the colours, although I have more respect for the fans that do than I have ever had before, before some people throw insults hear me out, Over the years I have seen owners come and go most of them making false promises they have never kept, not one of them has changed the colours or badge and caused complete upheaval among our fans as Tan, as I have said the changing of the colour does not bother me to the affect that I would insult any body that deals strongly about it, for the sake of unity at this time of crisis he should bite the bullet and change the colours and badge back to where they were before he came, on our part we have to work with Tan and appreciate the fact that he saved the club from going bust gave us the taste of the Premiership and paid off long term debts, yes the debts are higher but that is the cost of modern day football,at least they are in one place and owed to one man, I don't believe for one moment that it is going to be easy but we all have to try sooner or later for the sake of the future of the club, I have read on here that some people think we would be better off going into admin, there is no proof that this would work in our case and I for one would not like to take that chance for the sake of the fans of the future.
Now I come to our present manager, I feel sorry in a way that He has been thrown into the quagmire that is Cardiff City at the moment, I don't blame him for taking a job that give a higher wage and better prospects, after all Tan sought him out he did not apply for the job, but having taking it he must have thought he could do it, when he took over the majority of fans where willing to give him a chance, as far as I'm concerned he has had his chance and he is no better than Cork, Gould,Durban ,Lawrence, Oli, Andrews and Jones etc, I cannot understand why he has not altered his tactics or the shape of the team all he has done is tinkered with no end result in our favour, I also cannot understand his comments as to how well we have played at different times of matches, we are a disjointed rabble at times and that is down to him, he is the manager and he has asssistants that should be helping him if they are not and they don't seem to be then he should get rid of them or have the guts to tell his boss that he doesn't want them or resign.
This is going to be my last season as a season ticket holder because I can no longer afford the cost, I would rather spend my money on something else like a holiday, I will go to the odd match but only if Mr Slade is gone long with his staff.
I have done my bit over the years, it is now up to the present and future fans to save our club and is more important than colours and a badge.
