exactly the same, the name of the club is on the trophies we won, not the colour!

"Lolwut" I had to google that!![]()
Seriously though, isn't the colour part of the history and identity of the club?
They cold make a history whilst wearing Red, whilst being called Cardiff Dragons (in the future).
TG and his advisers have obviously done their marketing homework in Asia and thus are aiming for that market in detriment to history, identity and heritage.
Best of luck to them and all that want/need to support them in their business venture.
Personally, I won't.
Regards.

Blue is part of our history in what we achieved but not our identity.

Go ask the same question to Man U fans on thier forum if you asked them to play in green next season with a new badge and dropped their nickname and see what response you get.
That will enlighten you somewhat

Hmm...
So the identity of the club hasn't been eroded by having a Welsh flag/insignia taken off for 'Malaysia' to be emblazoned across the shirt?
The colour change to attract future potential 'fans' in Malaysia isn't another erosion of identity?
The threat that the 100 million quid isn't invested unless TG gets his own way isn't an attack on the identity of the club?
TG played a blinder here.
Best of luck to him and all who support his business venture.
I'll prefer keeping my dignity intact and remember the FOOTBALL club I used to support
Regards..

Yeah but they are just glory chasing goons. They wouldn't care if Fergie kept giving them trophy after trophy

And you just summed up in that statement why some people are only too happy to accept red "glory hunters" nothing more.
