I AM VERY PROUD OF YOUR HERITAGE

Sat Jun 16, 2012 2:54 pm

Born in East Anglia, put in a kids home and adopted as a baby by a young couple from Cardiff. Mam a Welsh speaker, Sardis Chapel from Ponty, Dad Church of Wales non Welsh speaker from Cardiff. Went to Cardiff High when it was in Newport Rd and got there on the Trolley Bus.
This might mean you think I am a plastic bluebird and an Englishman. I don't feel that way, I feel Welsh have always been a Bluebird and have a collection of shorts to prove it!
Went to NP whenever my army career would let me.
My main fear for CCFC was it always seemed to be run by a bunch of second hand car dealers........the type that sold me my first old Mini in City Road that fell apart three weeks later!
The thought of going red from blue is a horrible, but as a reasonably successful businessman who has looked at the financial FairPlay regulations I could not see how we could possibly survive in the future with these new regulations.

Why a reputable foreign investor with no connections to the club or country would invest £100m is quite beyond me but I thank God he is prepared to do it.

I will buy the shirt with the beermat badge to show some small financial support but will not wear it.

For those of you that think I have no right to comment on your club, you may be technically correct, but I feel that I am Welsh, a Cardiffian and a Bluebird.

Nothing gives me more pain than to see those of you who have been lucky enough to be born with this heritage to be so at odds with each other.

I hope that it resolves itself soon and we can all get behind Malky and the team, even those of us with possibly less claim than others.

Bluebirds!!!

If you support CCFC then your views are welcome as far as I'm concerned.Put a lot better than some on here who think they have a divine right to tell us all how we should think.

A lovely post mate, a shirt is a shirt,but belonging is for life and even life after death, that is how serious I take it, the slightest chance or thought that we could go out of business scares me shitless, been there when we were crap, been there when we could have all fitted in my house, but just imagine if there was no THERE.

Can't imagine or bear thinking about. :ayatollah:

£300 for a 'B' reg car. You rich B*****d. You should have spent your money more wisely. You could have bought half a dozen houses in Aberdare for that. :o :roll: :lol:

I must admit that all the talk up here was Malky replacing Paul Lambert at Norwich so glad that he kept the faith. There is a massive amount of respect for him up here.
