WE ONLY HAVE OURSELVES TO BLAME

I have renewed for next season but for the first time in my life i was a bit reluctant to do so, but my heart overuled my head because its Cardiff City i love and not the owner or management etc.
If im honest this season has turned into a chore and the feelings i used to have and the buzz i had about games has long gone. Its not just the results that has done that its the whole ethos that surrounds the club from top to bottom.
Not even the return to blue has changed that feeling, all be it it did for the first game against Fulham but thats was about it.
The thing that annoys me the most is that we only have OURSELVES to blame because we as fans have let it all happen.
Tan has destroyed this club and we let him do it without any fight whatsoever, and the reason, because we were being successful at that time.
Now its going pearshaped on the field then the fans are starting to react, but not in the constructive way like we did in years gone by with protests and chants via games etc, the fans are just giving up. thats the heartbreaking side of it. But do i blame them, NOT in the slightest.
So i wll continue to go for another season and continue to spend my hard earned cash on my beloved club, but the frustration and anger is building inside me, and when it reaches boiling point thats when i will pull the plug and stop going after 26 years of being a fan.
I hope and pray theres a lot of changes during the summer and although its not Slades fault, he is certainly not up to the job, the football is worse than horrendous.
Anyway rant over, keep the faith, we love this club through thick and thin.

Apathy from about 1980 to 2000 weakened our club so badly that anything has become acceptable.
The only people to blame were the thousands who abandoned or ignored their local club mainly to support the plastic 2.
Current fans and the loyal ones who stuck with us are absolutely NOT to blame.
Let's hope things improve on the field in the next couple of years so we don't slip back into that vicious cycle of no money , poor sides and no support, making the club unattractive to the right owners again.

Generally agree with what you say. Except we have already" slipped back", as you put it.
