Anyone who supports the Dragons was never a true Bluebird.

Thats as simply as I can put it. This is the darkest week in the history of the Bluebirds and I genuinelly believe we are the only club in Britain that would have large sectios of our ''support'' celebrating it. NO OTHER club would stand for this, and probably part of the reason Tan chose us, he knew we drop our keks for anyone who promises us a better standard of football or flashes some cash.

embarassed to be a City fan right now. No matter what spin you try and put on it or no matter how you are trying to convince yourselves - the fact is your willing to sell the bluebirds to watch a higher standard of football. :oops:

We will be forever seen as spineless dream chasers and a laughing stock for ever. The club is dying/dead (depending on how far its gone) and we have people creaming themselves that they may be able to watch their beloved Red Dragons in the Prem :shock:

Sad, embarassing, plastic ridden club. The sooner we get back to attendances of 8,000 with the majority of you rooted out the better.

I agree !!! much rather administration and inevitable relegation than change everything. the 100mil will only stretch so far, once this training complex and capacity increase are done, creditors paid off etc, malky will have a larger budget than previous years granted, but what about the next year? and the next year? they going to plouge more in then?

THE DEBT WONT BE GONE!!!!!

We will go from owing £70 million now to £100 million. He isnt giving us cash as a gift you plank, after converting some to equity we will be left with £85 million worth of interest baring debt. We will be financially worse of and we will sell our identity for the pleasure.

Its been said that after net season our Blue away kit is not guaranteed and the name Cardiff City cannot be guaranteed - WAKE UP FFS

People will only see the light once the cardiff city fc is taken away and theres nothing left im afraid so your fallen on deaf ears magic :shock:

Don't follow them then, follow another team if you don't like change.
I'm sure there will be plenty of malaysians coming to fill the seats left by the old school support.

What's the point in staying as we are, we won't get anywhere without investment... Simple

Not blinded, they simply dont care. City never meant anything to them, they just want to see Drogba play - if it means we must change our colours to pink and change our name to cardiff bumlickers - then thats the price they are willing to pay.

Sad.

Re: Anyone who supports the Dragons was never a true Bluebird.

Thu May 10, 2012 7:14 am

so this is a new thing then so MK Dons never happened?
I watched your'e on sky sports last night and a bloke (cant remember his name) asking what people thought of the changes proposed to CCFC.
They had sympathy but thought that its a sign of the times and where football has gone.
jason cundy brought up financial fair play.
chloe everton said surely you will do whatever it takes to get to the premiership.
So fans of CCFC are not as gullible as youre making out, it seems as usual Cardiff are bucking the trend with an attitude that tradition is more important than top-flight football.
But i suppose youre the only real one true fan on this board and everyone else are idiotic palstics.
ATMO im weighing up options, waiting for the club to come out with an official statement rather than go out with off the cuff emotional responses.
Finding out the true reasons why this is happening would be a good start
Is it the kick in the teeth we all think it is as most clubs have been re-branded in some way over the years maybe not an extent of our re-brand (but there is always Wimbledon and MK Dons)
On a final note ill support any football team i choose and if I continue to follow Cardiff City in red its my choice and nobody else can tell me to do any different. If you find you cant support a club now playing in red and stop going then fine i wont be rude to you or call you a pathetic plastic

I'm with you Johnny, I'm born & bred in Ely and I will support my local team whatever colour they play in

At least we have a team to support

You are bloody pathetic, 8000 this club will not survive, idiots like you make my blood boil.

Re: Anyone who supports the Dragons was never a true Bluebird.

Thu May 10, 2012 7:32 am

Its not surviving though you plank - we are getting killed off!! we are being replaced by a team Tan is making for Malaysia. The name Cardiff City isnt even guaranteed after next season.

Its our fault for letting our finances get like this. Stop the take over, go into admin, take the 10 point hit and go from there. Fresh as Cardiff City Bluebirds and learn the lesson. If we get relegated, we get relegated... but at least we will still have the real Cardiff City to support not some souless Asian immitation.

Mr Magic, everyone is entitled to an opinion - I'm just glad you are not running the club :roll:

Of course, but i telling you that if you hold the opinion that selling our club so we can hold another £30 million debt on top of what we already do is a good thing then im telling you your not a true fan - thats a fact not an opinion.

Re: Anyone who supports the Dragons was never a true Bluebird.

Thu May 10, 2012 7:40 am

How can you say I'm not a supporter - 30 years - last 20 as a season ticket holder

You don't know one thing about me - All I know you are a 6 fingered gypo stirring the brown stuff

Lets just beg to differ

Re: Anyone who supports the Dragons was never a true Bluebird.

Thu May 10, 2012 7:42 am

I will never ever forsake my club and as long as it plays in Leckwith and I can attend, my arse will be on a seat down there.

I take offence at another fan thinking they are more of a fan than another. We all have our opinions and I cannot understand why some would actively turn on others.

If you polled the fanbase and asked, if we could remain blue with a bluebird AND get investment then you would get 100% wanting this. We are all in this together but name calling of other fans is not the arguement to take into any negotiations.

I do not want change whatsoever, but I will never forsake the 11 players on the pitch. If the changes occur and many choose to stop supporting then that is their right but I will NEVER suggest they were never a fan in the first place and shame on anyone who tries to widen the divide and not try and lessen it.

The only plank on here is you, how long have you supported Cardiff, if my guess is right not a long time, you need to stop over reacting and start thinking with your head not your heart.

Right, so when they change the name to Malaysian Dragons - will you then class it as Cardiff City?

The name will not be guaranteed after next year.

Thu May 10, 2012 7:52 am

well if you want to play in blue that badly i hear Rangers are looking to buy a football club in the English pyramid system re-brand it to Rangers FC and relocate it to Ibrox. Wonder how that would go down with whichever football club they prey on.

Even when they arent called Cardiff City anymore and no longer have anything to do with the old club apart from playing in the same place (which will also look nothing like where Cardiff used to play btw)

Stop being a drama queen and stop making shit up about the seats changing, name changing etc. What your doing makes you look like YOU were never a bluebird :old:
