Just read the news this morning on BBC and to be frank it is only what I expected, we had the same with Briatore, he wanted everyone to back him or he would threaten to take his investment away and let the club die, and god knows how many times we were told that he saved us from bankruptcy. But this is what super rich owners can be like, if they don't get their way they threaten to throw their toys out of the pram. And your Malaysians are no different. One word can describe them and that is BULLIES. Sadly most will fall for their tactics but the fact is that you can make a stand. Stop buying the season tickets, don't buy the shirts, protest. 25,000 Cardiff City supporters will have more clout than a bunch of Malaysians who will try and sell your club in the Malaysian markets (still mainly supporting Liverpool, ManUre, Chel*** (blue kit, doesn't do them any harm), Arsenal etc.
Cardiff City will always be Cardiff City, of they think that the club can compete with the likes of the above then they really are deluded, at best what would beckon is a team in the mid to lower half of the PL, and believe me it will cost them much more than £1million a month to cover losses then.
For me, today the real Cardiff City has died and has been replaced by an imposter. God rest the soul of Cardiff City.

It's much appreciated to know that there are still real football fans out there who think this whole rebranding thing is disgusting and shows a massive lack of respect to a club with over 100 years of history..... Please make sure supporters of other clubs know that we're not all like the puppets they are going to see in the media over the next few days, cheesily grinning while saying how wonderful it is supporting a club on the way to the Premiership, whilst at the same time not recognising a single thing about the team running out on the pitch.... Some of us do respect tradition and honour, and some of us even remember the passion this club USE to have....

Think for the most part, the fans who are willing to go along with the changes are now not hoping for promotion but expecting it! The pressure is now on our club to deliver. If things don't go well during the season ahead from the start then I can see the fans really showing there disapproval towards our owners. They have put themselves in the firing line BIG'TIME with this. They've just raised the expectation bar to a whole new level imo.

Easy to say but if e Malaysians didn't want to invest any further what state would the club end up in? Surely not the championship with this current manager or squad? So what in your oppinion would happen if they walked away and called their debt in?

How quickly they forget. The kit and badge are a joke but will be in keeping with the new plastic fans so it may be a match made in heaven.
