I don't need any pat on the back or want one , just want back what should never have been taken away in the first place .
Bored of you now ,you slag people off for not doing anything then when they try you slag them off for trying :lol:
A compromise is fine with me not a full return to blue it can be easily sorted out with give and take from both sides . If you don't support what the peaceful pro blues are trying to do don't support it ,but equally don't put any of us down for trying , it's better than throwing them on the pitch !!

Not slagged anybody off i asked what your doing about it? I dont want red but and as i said in my 1st post il politely say "thanks but no thanks" and refuse the offer rather than dump it outside the club shop :thumbright: good luck with the protest :ayatollah:


Stapes you keep saying about how we getting 23k crowds with no protests, and asking people what they are doing about it.

this is what were doing trying to organise blue tuesday. You keep having a go for people not doing anything about the rebrand and when we try to do something like this you write it of and have digs at it.

also brighton will be playing in green not blue.

And il be doing my bit by refusing his generous offer :notworthy:

Personally I think we should collect the red scarf and put it in the bin, as the ones that aren't collcted the club will probably donate to local school, BLUE ARMY!

Pretty much just excepting them and saying thank you for his input into the club but then giving them back so as to say we except the rebrand to a point but will never wear it !!
Hope you all join in
It will also stop bans from happening

I and my friends, will accept them and will wear them, if you don't want one, don't accept one, but you will be in a very small minority of fans

Thats your choice and good luck with it but it wont stop thousands of fans showing their displeasure by wearing our traditional blue as a form of protest.

Until he pays off our debt he has saved nothing. He has invested agreed but that does not give him the right to do absolutely anything. Some fans would be comfortable trying to stop us chanting bluebirds if they thought that there would be a risk of it upsetting Tan.

What a load of nonsense you speak bluebird64.

We couldnt pay the milkman before he turned up.

He saved the club. FACT.

I have a feeling we will see for the first real time the true numbers tomorrow on if as a set of fans we are for or against this rebrand !
Will be interesting :ayatollah:

This.

He owns the club, and it's his money.

No-one likes it but that's how it is.

Challenge him how exactly?

Have you got 100 million.

No I didnt think so.

He put a lot of money in so he gets to take a lot of money out. He invested.
Thats fair.
What isnt fair is stripping the club of everything but the name in terms of identity.

Money in > Turn a profit > Get richer. Thats how (good) business works
Money in > Do whatever the f**k you want at the expense of thousands of people. That will undoubtedly stir people up.

He hasnt taken f**k all out for starters.

And if you want to talk about "good business" then rebranding and reinventing yourself is a succesful business strategy.

f I buy a shop I can paint it any colour I want regardless of customer tastes or preferences.
If I buy a football team do I need to ask the supporters if I can change the colour of the playing strip? I think not, i'm the owner and can do what I want.
But what if the supporters don't like it?
Then I might just walk away!
Swallow your pride and support the team.
Simples! Blue tomorrow means supporting Brighton!

Re: Blue Tuesday

Mon Feb 18, 2013 6:03 pm

this is not a bad idea actually. would be the best and most peacful thing to do to get a better idea of how many fans are against the rebrand. no good not accepting them as it would give us no idea of the numbers against the red. at least if they were left outside the club shop after the game it would give a good visual indication
