Blue and red

Last night I wore blue, but I took a red scarf too when we got there. It's because I love blue and our club and our past, but I also want a future for our club which right now means red. I am ok with having both. Taking a red scarf didn't mean the end of blue. and I will still wear blue.
My kids took the scarf too and wore it with their blue away shirts, and I am fine with that because I want them to grow up supporting Cardiff City, as I have. They are not 'plastics' because they are not old enough to have been there in the 70s and 80s - they are fans. And better they are City fans than Chelsea or a Manchester Club or Liverpool.
It doesn't have to be blue OR red - it can be both.

That's all well in principle and if things don't change from here then that's a great attitude to have.

However, in 1-2 years and Tan says we are changing the colours of the seats to red, our away kit will be black, the bluebird is being removed from the badge and we will be called Cardiff Dragons because on that one night when he handed out the free scarves the fans gave the biggest pro-red statement they could make... how will you feel then?

As Mario Polotelli said in another thread, it's confusing because Tan did save us. On the same hand, he could be the one that destroys the very club we have come to know in our lives.

If that happens, and I really hope it doesn't, I will keep wearing blue and I will make sure my kids know all about blue (their lives are already blue anyway).
I don't want to be red, but right now what i said in my original post is the only way I can reconcile it - because I will not desert the club I love, whatever form it exists in.
We all have to find a way to do it (and name-calling is pointless) otherwise people really will have to walk away - and no-one really wants to do that do they?

That's all fair. Personally, I will support the club until it is a club I have no emotional affiliation with. My brother has already stopped going down and one of the main drawing points for me was that it was a chance for me and my brother to see each other and have a catch up. That's now gone and any further changes were further impact on the emotional connection I have with the club.

Totally get what you're saying, and I hope the day when we have no emotional connection to the club never comes.
Right now i can't see it happening for me as I'm there with my kids and friends and my dad is still there with his bob bank mates.
I'd like to think we all have the same attachment for many years to come.
