I started in 1980 and dreamt one day the blues were going up "to the top flight"
And when we did 30 odd years later it was ruined by glory hunting red Cardiff fans
Standing on the pitch after we drew with Charlton and secured promotion
Should have been my dream moment
But no, looking around at all the mugs in red celebrating was almost as bad
getting relegated in Bury years back
And I bet there was no red birds sorry glory hunters in Bury that day

Seriously though, can’t fault the guy as even if I had his personal wealth, I wouldn’t be using it to finance and keep afloat a football club from another country.

But until he does he is an excellent custodian of this club.
It was the FA Cup final for me where the glory supporters started on us.

Would you rather us be playing at home with 3k crowds again then? A fan base has to start somewhere. I'm glad of the 'extra' fans, means we can compete with clubs which also has large support, I bet many of them started off as 'glory' fans and got hooked as a result.

Tan was at the helm for our second promotion too mate - in blue. I wasn’t a red bird but I carried on with my support and was glad that we changed back to blue.
Could we get a better owner? Possibly but I’m not aware of any suitors at the moment.
Could we get anyone worse? Absolutely definitely. Just ask Hull City fans.

I find that hard to believe
Hes making money off us somehow in my opinion, which we are all entitled to.
if anyone shouts stats at me from online sources dont bother
I'm sure I could find stats the loch ness monster really exists
After all if "he give a dam" as you' all seem to think why didnt he listen to true fans who obviously were against the red nonsense
If you believe his lovely little mum made him change his mind and see the error of his ways then that's your choice but
Im fully confident it was because season ticket sales were very low
As far Sam Hamman, whatever happened at the end
he started our success and personally I will always thank him for it
Plus I still want " Sam hamman walking round the pitch"

I cant believe you think VT is making money out of us. The man wrote off £68M of debt and you say this. Where have you been the last few years

What the fck Is a red bird? You are insulting genuine fans who watch club in good bad times including being red! If dont like tan just say so but dont insult city fans with childish remarks like red bird.. a club is a club by name not colour of shirt other teams have changed permanently their shirt colours

I agree we could have a lot more dodgy people in charge but
It may sound silly but like you and many others when I was travelling to shxt gounds in the dungeon division, division3
Top flight was my dream and I never thought it would happen
Sorry mate but for me he spoilt that and I'd rather be back in league 2 than see our club and its fans celebrating in red at that time

You are deluded and yes any so called Cardiff fan in red was a mug sold on success but not identity & culture, if you think a clubs culture including change of identity and colour is ok for success then more fool you., I dont and would forgo success, maybe I have pride in my club, its culture and identity not success and a change of everything like you redbirds
I'm sure you can work out red bird for yourself as your such an adult and I'm a little child
You and the red birds would probably sell your nan for success
Good times and bad times, I been in Halifax on a Friday night, barely 100 there, great promotions so yeah I know a out that
But atleast we were in blue with no stupid badge,
So I stand by any so called Cardiff fan in red that time has no soul, sense of pride & identity in there club.

What were your thoughts when Sam changed the badge?
What if the fans who became fans when we were in red stayed around? Are they now real fans? I mean there was a lot of them. Our biggest crowds in a generation were when we played in red.

So you didnt watch city at all in red? I watched before 1970 and I've been games with less than 50 fans there and to call me a red bird is an insult however you dress it up... said was a childish remarks and it is! we are all city fans watching in red white or blue ? You obviously do not understand football fans and their connection to the club they support... does 50yrs following city mean because I watched them in red I am not a ccfc fan anymore than you are?

Have to disagree mate on all being glory hunters,my dad had started to be unwell (dementja) and made me get him the red shit,sorry shirtI did with regret,but he said if they wore tu tu's and hobnail boots,if that's what my team wear!" He was getting forgetful around the same time,and a little confused,I even posted after one game (it has aluded me which) fuming that at the one game he actually wore the shirt,he was berated by a couple of "fans" for wearing the red shirt,while I never accused anyone of anything more,some dick decided I had "made it up!" Why the f@ck would I waste my time doing that?? Never had red in my head,but that's mine,not my dad's (rip)
