THE BLUEBIRD WILL RETURN

Wed May 09, 2012 7:14 pm

The last two days for me have been like a bad dream. Many things have been said regarding the pros and cons of the rebranding. I'm not happy with what is being put forward. I do appreciate the ambition being shown by the malaysians but what I don't appreciate is the whole manner of the way it's been handled.
Throwing our identity away because of a colour scheme. What utter rubbish. I know Asians are big on superstition and fortune but such a drastic turnaround is totally ridiculous.
Even if the malaysians were keen on this they should of tried to gauge opinion. Some people might say why should they. They own the club so they can do what they like. They could do this but they run the risk of totally alienating a big chunk of our fans.
Some people have said we have no choice or we will fold. Well if this is the case that this man feels he can push us into a corner and get his own way then that is really sad. It doesn't fill me with confidence that he really knows what he is doing. Does he think everybody will embrace his plans because of all the money offered,or does he not even care?
If the malaysians follow through with their plans then they have really showed ruthlessness and aggressive behaviour. This IMO is totally unacceptable. I don't know what decision I would make continuing following the city but I would hope our next owners would return our beloved Bluebird identity.

What about if the next 20 years are years of unparalleled success for our club?

This could (and I believe will be) our golden age.

That I understand and can appreciate that fans could get excited by. I just don't like the manner of how it's happening and our identity being totally altered.

very dangerous indeed

wales -small country, small population, tribal.

regional rugby is dropping like a stone in 'rugby mad wales'- we dont buy into this franchise shite it as people.

VT is forgetting the people in his decision making - this is very dangerous indeed.

Remember when Blackburn won the premier league.......

You may well be right but surely a man that has invested the huge sums of money into CCFC so far deserves the benefit of the doubt. Perhaps he thought we would all like the idea, he may decide he was wrong and change the plans etc

Hopefully.
