EVEN IF TAN TURNED US BACK BLUE TOMORROW

It's unbelievable what is happening to the world of football. I have read so many people wishing for Cardiff to get relegated, why? Because of Tan's treatment of Malky.

Carl, Annis, and everyone who is a true Cardiff fan, what is the plan? My favourite idea is songs, because Tan is there amongst us all, and can hear and see everything we do, this would be stronger than any protest. He has to see that his decision making is not pleasing the fans (the soul of the business) and if he doesn't change, he will fail in this business.

I love Cardiff City. My first job was selling programmes at the club when I was a fifteen-year-old boy. I now live in China and only get to see games at Christmas when I come home, so what I am about to propose will really hurt me but I think it’s the only thing that we can do.

This is the best time in the history of the club to be a Cardiff fan yet we are being mocked far and wide. Mr. Tan must understand that we are extremely grateful for his investment in both the club and in our community. However, we also need him to understand our collective frustration. As we have seen with many clubs who’ve gone bankrupt or had to take on massive debts at the expense of new owners, songs, scarves, message board comments and even protests achieve nothing.

I therefore propose that every Cardiff fan foregoes their ticket on Boxing Day. A stadium with only away fans will make a united statement that will resonate around the world.

I understand that some people will fear that there is no way of being sure who, come the day will join me in my absence. To make things fair, I propose that unless we get 10,000 names and emails on the below document, we all attend and resign ourselves to what may come. If however, we can get 10,000 Bluebirds to pledge to being united in our absence then let’s carry out our inaction and send a message to the world.

If we succeed, I suggest that we carry on not attending until Mr. Tan states his public support for probably the greatest manager our club has even known.

I love my club, as I’m sure you do too. Only together can we save it.

I will do anything against Tan but you can't ignore the team. They need us, as long as we are loud we will intimidate the away team, and all the songs could be anti-Tan where he can hear it all.

Far too many people support Malky rather than CCFC.

Rebrand - ok
Sack Malky - tan out.

Its laughable

Sorry Craig for wanting the best for my club

Who said you didnt want whats best?

All im saying is people seem more attached to the manager than cared about the rebrand.

Whether Malky should be sacked or not is irrelevant. Its been handled dreadfully.

Surely this is meek compared to taking a blue club and turning it red, taking a traditional badge with bluebird and changing it to a beer mat etc etc etc

I dont get why all the hostility NOW. Is Malky (a manager for 2 years) more important to fans thats the actual clubs identity which stood for 100 years?

True, even though I have the utmost respect for Malky.

If more than 70 people had the guts to ask for a season ticket refund when the revamp was announced then at that point VT would have known the score. He had plugged in enough money into the club to stay and push for the premiership and would never have refunded thousands of season tickets. We'd have called his bluff and he'd know we weren't to be messed with. Instead the opposite signal was sent and the fans basically gave him permission (in some cases rolled out the red carpet) for him to do exactly as he pleases with the club.

Of all the clubs in football I'd've thought this clubs fans would've been the least likely to accept this debacle. How wrong was I?

For me the rebrand has been bubbling under the surface for a long time, I hate the fact we are playing in red, promotion wasn't the same. I was happy but it didn't felt like all my dreams come true, it didn't feel like Cardiff City. That feeling still exists, I cannot bare not to go at all, Cardiff City is something I have always known. I have a massive amount of respect for our manager, he is professional, got a great record, by all means not perfect but a damn fine bloke who deserves much more respect than Tan has given this week. I am now fully support of any campaign for Tan to leave our club, however detrimental this might be! Tan has behaved disgracefully this week as many pundits, managers have pointed out. I simply do not understand how Tan can have supporters right now?

Come on city players whether Malky is there tomorrow or not play your hearts out for Malky!

Malky's barmy army!

That is exactly how I feel, cheers for writing it saves me trying to find the words. I know of many who have similar feelings

Top post sums up exactly my feelings will always be a bluebird though

I still want the idiot out of our club, if as expected he sacks Malky then it is time for Tan to stay away for good.

I have stayed very much down the middle and seen the arguments from both sides regarding Tan's rebranding but the way in which Tan is behaving and treating Mackay and in turn this club, for myself enough is enough.

Time to go Vincent.

By accepting the rebrand you allowed Tan to do whatever the hell he wanted to. The way the madman is going about running our club was always on the cards after most fans passively and even defensibly allowed the rebrand to happen.

Its simple
For me the red was a step too far end.

But now he is running around sacking a manager that got us to the premier and we are not in the relegation zone.

Ok the football is not pretty but I cant see anyone else doing any better.

What is the tyrant going to do next ? This should have stopped at the rebrand, it didnt, it has to stop now.

Annis Ive said many times he has used our club for his own Ego and has no insight in to football matters, so fully committed to him going TAN OUT NOW

Spot on. By not opposing Tan over the rebrand I am afraid that we have created a double headed monster who thinks he can do exactly what he wants with our club. Tan has already stated there is no more money available so if Malky is replaced then a new manager will inherit a team that he will not understand them and not even be able to bring in new players which has disaster written all over it.
If we allow Tan to stay then he will continue to carry on regardless and before long our club will not be worth supporting anyway because it would have changed into something that will be unrecognisable and regarded as a joke in the footballing world.
As I have always stated, Tan out is the only way to go and if we allow him to stay then we deserve what we will surely get.

You mean this one jinks
