Respect

They have more of a reason to oppose things like this than other fans.
Their own club was ripped from them by Red Bull - have a look at their website, it must have been heartbreaking for that to happen to them.

There are a few fans at the front turning round as if to say, what the f**k is all that about

Is it real?? It's not like a photo shop thing is it?

if that for real its awesome

think its pretty legit not 100% sure but looks the real deal

It's 100% not fake, they do protests like this all the time.

Excellent stuff,post it on FB I reckon

Fair play

Fair play

My total respect to them! They can give us a third party view of what's happened at our club.

I've been to Salzburg and I can remember how much they all hated and fought against the fact that Red Bull took over their club.
Total respect for them, they know the situation we're in.

That is awesome. Hang your heads in shame turncoats.

Agree. We have ALL got to stick together on this one if we want to support a club in the future that even remotely resembles the one we support now.

I know that a lot of fans have been swung over by the red or dead dogma that we've heard in recent days including 'fans leaders' but if we ALL push for compromise then we can still retain a club that retains its core identity.

Lets see what the Malaysians come back with first and then push for compromise if needed.If red shirts are still on the agenda after that then we need to get ourselves organised...

Keep Cardff blue

Fair play

superb

So why do are "OWN SUPPORTERS" want to play in red ?

I'm sure compromise can be reached with VT and TG to keep everybody happy at CCFC but some of the cheerleaders for rebranding should read this - it's taken from the Austria Salzburg website...

**************************************


On the 6th April 2005 Red Bull took control of the Salzburg Sport AG company and therefore also took control of the football club Austria Salzburg. Red Bull boss Dietrich Mateschitz publicly introduced his football advisor, Franz Beckenbauer, and the resigning chairman, Rudi Quehenberger, announced he was thrilled to see that "years of hard work for the benefit of football in Salzburg" had finally paid off.

The initial reaction to the takeover was euphoric, even amongst the long-standing and most loyal fan groups. No more than a handful of fans harboured any feeling of foreboding as regarded the possible course of events in the following few months. However, during the initial few weeks following the takeover the first rumours of a break with the traditional deep purple and white club colours began to circulate amongst the fans. The talk was of a new FC Red Bull kit in red, blue and silver. This triggered demonstrations, petitions and a flood of open letters to newspapers from every corner of the Violett/Weiss fan community.

Despite several activities organised by the fans in defence of club traditions the new managers remained completely unimpressed. Although the general assembly on the 4th June 2005 resolved to placate more traditional-minded club members by supporting a decision to keep the Violett/Weiss club colours, nine days later the truth came out. On the 13th June 2005 the team for the new season was introduced to the press and the general public at a venue known as Hangar 7. The players appeared with red and white home kits and blue away kits. Deep purple had been erased from the club’s identity!

To add insult to injury, instead of bearing ‘1933’, the club’s true year of foundation, the management had decided the club had been established in ‘2005’, something the Austrian F.A. insisted be changed immediately. Being the legal successor of the previous owner and club title the official identity of the club had to be maintained in order to entitle the club to the license to play in the Bundesliga, otherwise the newly-founded club would have to begin life in the bottom division in the country. Further evidence of this clean break with all the traditions of the past, and proof it was a completely new start, was to be found in the player profiles; the profiles of players who had played for Austria Salzburg in the previous year: ‘Previous club: SV Salzburg’.

Full respect to them, great show of support. Their banner sums it up for me
