MONEY IS THE ROOT OF ALL EVIL

Wed May 09, 2012 8:41 pm

Just remember that lads! £100m is not worth 100 years of history, when I was brought up watching Cardiff we played in blue and ran out to an army of fans shouting "bluebirds, bluebirds!" Lets keep it that way, I think there are a couple of twists and turns to come before the first ball is kicked in August. Don't give in! :ayatollah:

Put your money where you mouth is then by contacting the club and telling them that you and your traditionalists friends are willing to pay thousands of pounds to purchase season tickets.

That way the club can just about survive in a lower league, but will be wearing blue

Just look how are it was for portsmouth to fined a backer, and how very near to going out of football.
We were not far behined them a few season ago, How long do you think the history of Cardiff City live on if we went out of football. Yes we would remember but our kids ,kids wouldnt . The history would die with them,yes they may talk about the Bluebirds for years to come in a few Pubs or clubs,but soon it would die off. It would die with the tag of , and they never made it to the big time, O yes but the club down the road Swansea made it there. Do we want to be rememberd like that. :old:

I was just going to quote that what St. Paul actually said was that it was the love of money.....not money itself (which is neutral - its what's done with it and the motivation that makes it evil or not). :lol:

I've never studied theology professionally, but have a massive interest in St. Paul especially and have read extensively on his influence and writings, and always hate it when anyone misquotes him :lol:

And before you respond, I know most modern scholars would not accept the pastoral epistles as genuine Pauline writings :lol:
