The premier league hid a lot of the real feeling......We got to let this run its course....Some will leave, have their sabbatical and return or leave forever. Others were in it for the premier league.

Next season will be a chore. Slade has to go. I will not be buying my 2 tickets until the summer, the bloody season doesn't start for another 5 months !!!!!!!!

So much for blue back and the fans will return

And don't blame the football I've seen far worse in the last 15 years simple fact is half those that aint renewing are the ones that have moaned over and over again and had their 3/4 years tint watching our better times and now want out again so the football is now the excuse before christmas the same folk were saying returns us to blue and I'll be renewing

I was spot on all along most of our fans these days just can't wait to moan about something

The sadest part for me is the fact fans won't renew because we ain't playing well or winning every game, f**k me what have football fans become, we sold out for a one season hit in the prem, now the moneys dried up and the football's sour lets all bail out. Back to the few thousand loyals like years ago at this rate not the turn up when we only winning every week fan :shock:

As I said doesn't take a lot to lose fans

End up red again next season when vinny realises that more have stayed away since we went back blue than when we were red

The fan base is just too old.....The Ninian stand is full of Victor Meldrews, just happy to moan I am glad they are not renewing, they bring the whole place down.
Any coincidence that we have won 2 away and lost the last two at home....

The commercial side of the club hasn't really had to try to get fans through the door over the last few season, with cup finals and premier league and there has been a touch of arrogance.....Why should I renew 6 months before the start of the next season !!!!!!

There needs to be competitive 13~18 year old prices in the Canton and improved prices for the Ninian to get the 20~30's out of the Canton and into the ninian.

Dynamic pricing is a disaster, especially when the parks are off.....but city haven't got a clue, sadly

Your right IB, the commercial side of the club is a complete disaster, probably due to too many people firmly up their own arses.

The new seasons promotional activity regarding Season ticket renewals & purchases has been almost non existant. Has Any one received a postal application yet?

At this rate we will be well into August before the penny drops, & I thought this seasons replica shirt roll out was bad enough!!!

Football has got a lot to compete with these days.

when I was going religiously late 80s early 90s football was still at its peak... now there are other things for people to spend their money on.

So can you expect someone to spend their cash on the boring crap that is being served up ? You can waste your money on other things that you will get more enjoyment out of.

Fans want to be entertained for their money and most will not turn up to watch shit in Blue or red. do you think If man utd was a bottom of Championship side playing poor football week in week out Their ground would be full... no chance, not this day and age.

Fans watch football to be entertained and for hope, hope of being the best, playing in the best league. . If this was not the case then league 2 clubs would also be watched by 40,000 fans.

Cardiff has nearly always been a club in the lower leagues, then we get our chance, attendances go up and along came Tan, while welcome, he made changes that some could not accept - and instead of being idolised he became the villain and rightly so.

we are now worse off than when he came in, or in more debt playing shit football with little hope... and yes, following your football club is more than just success.. but if you are going to spend a big chunk of your money and make a day away from your family every week, then you want something back and at the moment the fans are getting nothing for their commitment.

Over to you Tan

Im not renewing due to price. Drop it to 250 for 1 adult and child and ill renew. They owe me 150 for this season's shite. They can pay up players contracts but not discount season tickets.
