" THE REBRANDING OF CARDIFF CITY "

I dont give a feck I'm colour blind

Didn't we used to be Riverside FC, and play in yellow and brown?

Christ before you know it they will be changing your name to FC Kuala Lumpa of Cardiff.

I dont give a feck I'm colour blind

Lol

Anybody know when the meeting will be over and we'll actually have some factual information regarding this baseless rumor that has snowballed out of control?

I can't get my head around the idea that at the moment is a rumour though there does seem to be some legs in part of the story, staff at the club will not confirm nor deny the rumour this morning and all that I am being told that is the announcement must come from those at the top.

My initial reaction is anger at the thought of changing our colours because someone thinks it is a lucky colour.

We must wait for the club to announce something before we can fully understand the plans the Malaysians have.

I said only weeks ago that there would be a total overhaul of the club this summer and a restructuring of it too but not once was it ever mentioned of changing our identity as we know it.

I have been told Vincent Tan wants to change 26,000 seats to the colour Red, our home kit to Red, the Bluebirds to go,our badge to change totally and our stadium eventually to become Red.
I have also been told that many people within the club have advised VT not to do this.
Apparently Red is VT favourite colour and Red is VT lucky colour and he believes Blue will never get us promoted, I can only tell you want is being said.
The name Cardiff City will remain.
An Announcement will being coming soon.


We are meeting the Club tonight to discuss it all.

This is not on one pissed of bitch

ARE WE WREXHAM IN DISGUISE?!?!?!?! Lmao... to be honest im not keen on the idea but maybe its not all bad. i know a lot of people are upset by the idea but we are proud to be welsh and red being the nations colour and the welsh dragon is more native to wales than the native American bluebird lol... or maybe a Celtic look, green and white with a celtic badge... i don't know, maybe im just looking at the brighter side of the whole situation... if someone gave me the choice then id say stay blue but i don't think its the end of the world if we did change colours and we wont be the first team to do so and i doubt we be the last and how many times has our badge changed in recent years??

sum1 shud tell vincent that when he takes full contrl and invests in the team properly, ie ready 4 the prem wages, we will more than likely get promoted. if not, then go for the red thing. what a waste of blue seats that wud be? a red kit with the nice blue and yellow stripe wud look alright i reckon.....man utd used to play in blue.....

Didn't we used to be Riverside FC, and play in yellow and brown?

yes, over a 100 years ago, for under 20 years mostly as amateurs, hardly relevant is it.

NO NO NO NO NO NO WHAT A LOAD OF BOLLACKS BLUEBIRDS AND NOTHING ELSE . OR NO SEASON TKT .????

i supported cardiff dragons before,the rugby league side.i can't see this happening and if it did i will be gutted,but i know i still go down and support them.i still sing bluebirds after every goal.i still do the and i would protest.but it could have been worse it could have been cardiff dons,let see what imformation annis and co come back with.

Some of our hoofball this season has been more akin to rugby league

Green and white hoops please Vincent and Cymraeg Celtic for the new name

Feck the bluebirds they can't fly in high winds

Support the Bhoys and make some noise.

If this come to fruition we need to take a stand whether that forms the path of protests or boycotts who the f**** do they think they are its Cardiff City the Bluebirds , were not some sort of 20/20 cricket team being fecked around with and going all stupid with name changes and colours

Have the club also considered that us fans have a boatload of blue things such as flags, scarves, kits, clothing etc.

Vt can go and fxxk off and take his Red and shove it I will never be able to convert to that I am institutionalised totally in the Cardiff City as we no it .Change it and the Identity of the club is forever lost and I wont have a club to support so go and book a one way ticket back to Melaysia land and don't come back VT.

and you can take your money with you .So angry at this

Vinny tan can call the stadium what ever he wants but NO name change, no colour change & no badge change. if he wants a team to play in red buy charlton. id rather be in the 3rd div skint than sell our soul !

Totally agree with this

History is priceless. I really hope it doesnt happen!

How can everyone complain?! its a colour change, theyre not changing the name so the club wont be losing its identity at all. Firstly they're doing this to help the club go global with is a good long term and we'll get £100m and a bigger stadium

i think people who are against this are just short sighted to be honest, and the only way this could "damage" the club will be by the moaners stopping turning up becuase of something which is actualy posititve

Been going for many years (too many!!) and while i don't like the thought of a colour change part of me does not really care anymore. Top level football lost its soul many years ago and now it's all about money - just cannot get the highs (and lows) that football used to give me so if you ask do i want us playing in red but safe financially or in blue and bust just cannot really decide. There are times now when i almost think sod it and walk away and not bother anymore - unfortunately that's what money has done and i don't think the real passion will ever be there again. Now it's all sit down, be quiet and give us your money -very sad

My Wife a season ticket holder wants to know if VT will pay for her blue car to be resprayed RED???????

Being from Norway, I have won't pretend to be someone I'm not. For those who have supported this team for years I can't imagine the dissapointment you feel. People supporting other non-PL clubs sympathize with the Bluebirds in this matter on the leading norwegian forum. The welsh dragon is an awesome symbol, but the bluebirds isn't a national team. If a £100m is to be invested, it's surely a good thing, but it doesn't make sense to change the colours anyhow.

We've been blue for longer than anyone on here can remember. It just feels wrong to change it; very wrong. I like many others am grateful for them essentially saving CCFC and for continuing to support us. A £100m investment sounds wonderful but it cannot be at the expense of our identity.

I don't think that they will now walk away, but they now know and understand not to tamper with our distinctiveness.

Reading through this thread again turned my stomach just like it did back then

Reading through this thread again turned my stomach just like it did back then

Did it really happen, or was it just a bad dream?

It was a nightmare and our worse time in our 100 plus history

Our club lost its pride and identity and is paying for it now and those bastards Reds broke my club I loved so much
