We have to let all this rubbish drop now lads. Less than a few days in and we're starting to look like stupid pillocks in my opinion.

I'm really hoping senior posters and fans reps comment on these kinds of posts now to try and educate the posters who won't let things go.

Most of us don't care about silly things like this, not now anyway.

If Tan wants to spend any money then please let it be on something designed to improve the football or matchday experience for the majority.

Looks better with a bit of colour. Boring as hell with just blue.

Would much rather the European style multi-coloured stadia than then bland single colour like Old Trafford

I like the red and blue mix in seats and promotional flyers. No need to change.

I'd like the club to change it to blue & also change the outside of the ground... But I'm not that bothered about it.

Telling other people to embrace it or stop having an opinion on it though, is rather silly.

Re: Will the new stand seats change to blue?

I would imagine it will all change back to blue eventually,the main thing is Tan has realised his error in judgement and I will be much happier when the debt is turned to equity but for me it's time to move on and get back to football matters and support the team. :bluescarf:

Our club will be linked with red for a while away kit, badge etc so I don't really see the need, it's not cheap either.

Re: Will the new stand seats change to blue?

I'd rather see the family stand and canton end swap ends before the red seats changed. After the debt and badge that's what we need to push for IMO

I hope that the seating changes, but maybe to a darker shade of blue. Navy would contrast the two tiers nicely.

Yeah let's get someone like Kelly Hoppen in. She supposed to be a great interior designer. She could bring some swatches & get the shades & contrasts just right.

I'd like to see them changed, I think it looks tacky. If I could have my way I'd like to see a couple of bluebirds up there, Brighton have it in their stadium and I reckon it would look the business in the CCS, would add a bit of character too.

Yep I'd go with that. I just think a single colour is so bland.

I agree it would look much better, however, with the current financial restraints in place at our club, i don't think its going to happen for a long while yet, if ever.

How much would it cost to replace the five thousand odd seats anyway? Any crude figures available??

Another way to look at it though is that the CCS is now the Premier Welsh International football stadium, that's my opinion anyway, & I can easily live with that one!

Re: Will the new stand seats change to blue?

If I'm honest id rather see the money spent on completing the stand with the internal fit out rather than change the seat colour. I'd imagine the seats will be changed eventually but the internal fit out needs completing.

Not as expensive as people might think - maybe about 10 GBP per seat. To look at it another way, for 5,000 seats that would work out to about ... a week's wages for Andreas Cornelius. :laughing6:
