FEEL TOTALLY EMBARRASSED..

Tue Jul 24, 2012 9:01 pm

I can't believe what I'm hearing about what went on tonight!!

No way should Cardiff fans be arguing upon one and other just because of the colour of the playing shirt

Yes i understand that Cardiff is traditionally blue and it should never change - and i like everyone else is totally upset at the fact that we will be playing in red although i understand that it is Red or dead

I still can't get my head around people moaning about VT and his investment - i agree with posters about their uncertainty over VT's debt to equity plans etc; but would we exist without him? - Playing in red is unfortunately a small price we have to pay.

People will say - 'aww, we will still be around without VT' -- look at portsmouth, i would have thought that looking at their uncertainty might have knocked some sense into some fans.

I do sympathise with fans who cannot accept the change, but i have had to because i know with the change, we have the best chance ever to support Malky and the boys, and give it the best crack ever in getting to the premier league.

Although some people would prefer to have no club, or one playing in the welsh league.

Before i get abuse; this is just my views - and i don't expect any one to respect them or criticise them, as you say 'everyone's entitled to their opinion'

and for the record - i am not pro red or pro blue - I want City to play in blue, but understand its not viable to do so

Come on guys - is this what Malky and the boys want?

Who gives a crap about the colour we play in - We all have to support the boys 100% and do our best to give them the best support possible in creating our dream to get into the premier league

Lets not fall out, lets create history together (with Kimbo) :ayatollah:

There's about 3 or 4 different topics opened on this, why don't we just keep it to one....

It will be like the good old days at Ninian Park. No away fans to fight, so we fight each other.

we have pretty much just signed a player with potential quality and there are only 19 replies to that post, however there are about 30 pages with countless posts about red or blue etc.....

What is it about our track record as fans that made you think we had civilised fans?

is it though???? i personally think those xi on the pitch are the most important not what colour they are going to be wearing...


the point i was making is that we have argued to the death about the blue and red and nothing can be done about it for this season....... so why cant we just concentrate on the football for once....

Never was red or dead. And changing colour will not stop us loosing 1 Mill a month. Good ownership and not spending what we haven't got will sort our problems.

to some people though this is the most important thing now, the end of the world football-wise to a few including myself!

i wish this rebranding didnt bother me, but it does, and im gutted, and the 11 on the pitch just doesnt seem like the most important thing now!

fair comment mate....


it seems that some fans can bite their tongue longer than others..... some can overcome the idea for the love of cardiff city, and like you say some believe its the end of the world... but the inhouse fighting is not good for no one, fans, players, or anyone associated with the club....

i just hope the malaysians realise that they are and have devided the PAYING CUSTOMERS/FANS and they need to unite them again with a decision about the clubs identity for the future....

He was still going to back us. He had to much money involved. But he hit the jackpot when city fans bent over and allowed him to take us from behind.
