Who now will admit they bought Tans Red?

Or even a top with the beer mat on?

Or even any of his Red or Stuff with his badges on?

I have to say I'm looking forward to buying my children and myself next seasons BLUE top,I can take the worm as its being eaten by the Mighty Bluebird :thumbright: :bluebird: :bluescarf: :ayatollah:

Can honestly say I have never bought red or blue in 30yrs. Only bought a few programmes and never a beer. :lol:

Ok, let me explain myself. For the past 3 seasons I've gone down the city with my auntie and uncle (and my auntie isn't really a die hard city fan). And they were also paying for my season ticket. So suddenly my auntie buys me a red shirt and I can hardly not accept it and wear it because she just spent £40 on it. So unfortunately I did wear the red shirt. But next season I'm going with my friend so I'll be sporting the blue shirt then.

While we may never forgive, the red kit is now history and we can look forward to starting the new season in our true colours.

Personally I have always bought RED for Wales and BLUE for Bluebirds - simples!

Here we go again with the negativity - dragging it all up again and reopening all the divides and arguments . We know what happened was wrong but at some point we must move forward and put it behind us. Fail to see how this thread can help at all but there again perhaps that's the agenda !!

Steve, out of 65 posts of yours 95% are having ago at this Forum or its posters? Hmmm

You seem to only come on here to have ago at this forum.

I can ask what ever I like,like any fan can and thats my right :thumbright:

And Yes I Despise Tan & his Red and what he did to us.

But you forgot to mention about what I said about next seasons kit ? :bluescarf:

My two boys now aged 15 and 13 have every home kit since the ages of 6 and 4 all with the exception of last and this seasons red. They have both asked me for the red just to have every season's kit since 2005 but i have refused and have even had to warn all the relatives not to waste there money buying as gifts as they would be burnt. :bluebird:

Looking forward to kitting them out again in blue for next season. :bluescarf:

I never wanted it to happen but I got a red top just for the sake of supporting the team I didn't get into the politics around it was just purely to support the team and it was still Cardiff City in my eyes and I welcomed the investment because it saved the club from going under and it helped us to strengthen the team to get to the PL but looking back on it now what a sad state of affairs and I hope we do it properly this time as the Proper Bloobirds!!!!! :bluescarf: :bluescarf: :bluebird: :bluebird: :ayatollah:

Wore blue with pride.
Wore red with pride.

I support the team that represents the City of my birth and I always will, no matter what colour they play in, no matter who owns them and no matter what they are called. I am not bothered by the petty symbolism which seems to bother so many others.

Bought them as I collect ALL City tops.

Re: " SOME HONESTY PLEASE "

Sun May 31, 2015 9:34 pm

Don't think I need to answer the question.

And I will continue to boycott the merchandise until the last remaining symbol has gone.

Re: " SOME HONESTY PLEASE "

Sun May 31, 2015 9:37 pm

I bought one, the time we had that hog roast thing down the stadium, I honestly thought it was only gonna turn out to be for one season, so thought I'd buy one as a collectors item. I've never worn it though, I don't wear football shirts full stop

Re: " SOME HONESTY PLEASE "

Sun May 31, 2015 9:41 pm

Never.

Gutted that the away tickets still have red all over them.

And that's because I can only be bothered to reply to people I perceive as spreading negativity about the club
Look I know you are a life long supporter as I am but I just happen to believe that for the good of the club it is better at times to say nothing rather than being negative about the club. No Tan supporter but the way some people post on this forum you would think that the 30 or 40 years before he came that it was some sort of rose garden in the boardroom whilst we all know that generally most of our owners have shafted us in one way or another.
And just for the record got nothing against this groom I just like to try and get some balance

Wife bought me a red top as an anniversary present. Wore it to watch Wales play rugby mostly then an oxford fan in Witney had a go at me.

Everything red was banned from my house hold during the evil red purge :lol: :old: :bluebird: :bluescarf:

Personally, nobody in my family bought anything red. I didn't even accept that free red scarf. I can kind of understand why people bought the red kit because it was an official Cardiff kit but it wasn't for me. :bluescarf:

I think it is now time to confine this red or blue business to the dustbin of history and move on

Re: " SOME HONESTY PLEASE "

Mon Jun 01, 2015 3:23 pm

I can honestly say that I never bight a d shirt, shorts or anything that for myself, but people have bought me a pencil case and I have bought a blue top with the badge on.

Have to be honest and say that my wife bought me a red CCFC pen from the club shop,and as she said I can't see what the problem is the fecking ink is blue.

Mon Jun 01, 2015 5:29 pm

i bought the red top for me and my daughter and blue for my boy. i got caught up when he 1st came here. biggest mistake ever as i cant stand the guy now

Re: " SOME HONESTY PLEASE "

Mon Jun 01, 2015 5:42 pm

I bought a red top for my nephew.

Don't think I have anything with the beer mat on but I probably would have if it was a good price and decent stuff. Not the worse badge we have had in my opinion.

My son was 3 in March. He has 1 blue one from the season we were promoted, he has a red one from the premiership (as the club didnt make childrens sizes in the away colours at the time) and then this season a blue one again. So he has the not good badge, but he will be able to look back on them in 20years time and see how our club changed! All 3 signed at the player of the year awards nights and going to frame them.

I'm glad I spent the money and my son has a shirt for every year he's been born, than not buy one because of the badge or shirt colour. Personally I havent and won't wear a red shirt. But I did have a premiership Blue top with the beer mat on it lol
