The new upper stand with the red on the outside is being redecorated. Hopefully blue.

Hopefully painting those 2 red girders on the outside blue.
Shame we can't change the red seats on the inside......

How many points would we get if the seats were blue instead of red
How many grounds have all the same colour seats
How many grounds are the seats in the teams playing colour :sladein: :bluescarf: :bluebird:

Oh don't wet yourself!!
I'm just saying I hate the red seats and they would look much better to me in blue.

No it wouldn't it would be bland in one single colour. Get some variation in your life instead of being a drone. :)

Change the white seat configuration to a dragon, a Welsh one and it will serve Wales nicely.

Can't see many Wales Games being played in CCS for a while.

Drove back past the CCS & no sign of anything. Don't know what was going on there.

Fair bit of work going on in the inside of the new stand. Nothing happening on the outside as far as I could see

I really hope they cover up those red seats in blue, couldn't stand seeing that red elephant in the corner of my eye every game last season

'troobloo3339' has a point though; and the all-important factor is (or at least 'was' until it was achieved and certain people needed a new 'negative' focal point) that the home playing kit colour is blue! ;)

The red seats (that you could now argue reflect out 'alternate' or away kit) are currently of little consequence in the grand scheme of things; unless, of course, there is little else of note going on at the CCS at the minute? :?

From where I'm sitting, the main 'battle' (the kit) has been won and everything else should/will slowly revert back to where it was! ;) :thumbup:

After the disaster and ill feeling of the re brand the club should distance itself from red forever. Get all red out of our club and that would hopefully put it behind us. Red on the new stand should go, red seats should go. New red away kit should not be used. Use yellow instead.

Completely agree, but I think the club are trying to use red as our 'second' colours now, a probable excuse to save money on removing the red seats

Why yellow? Red has a longer history with the club and has Welsh links.

What rubbish!
Cardiff is Cardiff and Wales is Wales!
Completely seperate.

Cuty have worn red and red trim in the past but have worn yellow and yellow trim just as much and have done for much of the recent past.

We were blue white and yellow before the rebrand and should be returned to those colours ASAP.

The club should rid us of the red so we can try and reunite this club once again.

The ayatollah things that look like theyre holding up the roof look a bit daft. Make it all the same colour, red yellow blue whatever, just get rid of them daft ayatollah things. Now the new stand has been mothballed for the season, i wouldn't mind seeing giant st David's flags covering the seats....or bluebirds flags

Chief my point being the red has caused major bad feeling. Yellow has not. Such bad feeling even now over what has happened. Look I have never had a problem with red before the re brand even purchasing a few red tops. But IMO we need to distance ourselves from it now.
