These fans who are not going anymore...........Priceless!!!

Sun Aug 26, 2012 9:00 pm

I just don't get it you don't just fall out of love with CARDIFF CITY due to a colour of a top. Some of these supporters have followed Cardiff everywhere for all there life. Following city is there social life, there release and almost like a drug to some. They have turned down holidays, broken up with birds and now just cause they play in red there done ha!!!!!!!!!!

I don't understand how these people can just drop it all. What are they doing every Saturday afternoon? Tuesday night? Are they not checking results or listening on radio?

To me many have an ego on the go and are trying to stand firm.

It's funny how they all pop up on facebook when we lose saying red this, tan that.................but when we win they claim they have no interest in the club?ha. If you have no interest don't comment or haven't seen us play this year don't comment.

They never moaned when we used to lose in yellow or red in years gone by. By November I'm sure some will be bored out there brains and be looking like fools.

I'm falling out of love with the game as a whole. If I'm honest with you I've been willing to work for the first two Saturdays of the season and it hasn't effected me at all. I just think its a case of me getting older and wiser with my spare cash

Gwyn whilst you are constantly trying to point score you seem to have completely missed out words in my comments like 'football as a whole' or in this case 'the game as a whole'. But you keep on trying to play your games because is very ammusing to be honest

It's a matter of principle. If we go back to blue then I will more than likely start attending again, as will others. Leave it too late though and I'm sure many will not bother to return.

Sorry but who is having a go at Gwyn for suporting the club..? :?

Personally for me football has lost it's appeal due to the obscene money in the game, teams buying success, thick as pig shite players earning more than brain surgeons & the cost of the privilege to follow the game. Joe Average struggling to pay the bills & tightening the purse strings yet footballers still live in a lap of luxury.My boy & his mate played guitar in a pub yesterday & Man City v Liverpool was on in the bar & not once was i interested to even see what's the score,i could'nt care less.The moneymen have killed off the chance of any teams coming straight through the divisions ( Wimbledon style) & the premiership is no more than a 3 tier league with the same old rich clubs dominating.

I've not give a f**k about Football for years. Except for the City. I'll watch Barcelona
if Messi is playing. I'll watch Man Utd if Rooney is playing. Sadly, thats about it.
It amazes me the knowledge some people on here have of other Clubs players etc.
Not knocking that at all. But me? If it isnt CCFC.... ram it I prefer the boxing!!

If you don't get it now, then I guess you never will.

The ridiculous re-branding episode has provided a very loud wake-up call for some of us. When you think about it carefully, there is no logic whatsoever in devoting large amounts of your time, energy and money to a professional football club, especially when the club concerned treats its supporters with contempt and views them as nothing more than consumers.

When Craig Bellamy signed his latest £30,000+ per week contract, he told the press: "There's more to life than football."

He was right.

Hear , hear! To compare the wearing of a yellow or black away kit to the ''permanency' of Tan's tyrannical actions beggars belief. !

I don't think it's about "getting it"
Following City for me is not just about the club. For me, it's the social side of it too.
You have your own views and perceive them the way you do, as is your perogative.
You're right about devoting time, energy and money to the club, and one of the reasons I will not turn my back on something that is in my blood.
I don't like the fact we have changed colour and badge, but for me it's not the end of the world. I hope we will go back some day, and in the mean-time, I will not let some megalamaiac stop me doing what I enjoy. Win, lose or draw I will still go as much as I can.
Bellers quote can be said about any sport/hobby or pastime, but he was saying it from the point of a player and not a fan I would think?
But to use his point in another way, "There's more to life than a colour".

CB is right, there is more to life than football, i said so myself shortly after the re branding issue was confirmed.

There's a lot of people not happy about a whole load of issues pertaining to Cardiff City FC at the moment, & i sense a rumbling volcano scenario. If thing don't improve, both on & off the pitch, then i sense a whole lot more people abandoning our club in due course! :old:
