Main aim of the march?

Hopefully after yesterday the numbers attending will have a grown somewhat

but all of you that are attending what do you think the main aim is, and what would be your ideal outcome?

The ideal outcome for me would be 2000 participants and the board to wake up to its responsibilities to all those who turn up.

I'm protesting because I'm sick of the amateur way the club is run. Failure to pay tax bills, getting the cost of stadium fit outs wrong, spending money we haven't earned yet, lying and deceit and the pathetic and infamous Golden Ticket Scheme.

Nobody is going to resign because we are marching but hopefully the board will wise up to some reality, sanity with more trust and respect towards the supporters.

I would be happy if around 1,000 fans plus turned up. For me personally i dont like being treated with contempt and lied to and hence am making a stand if nothing elese than to make me feel better and raise awareness to the board that their actions have been morally wrong.

I agree, that's what hope the outcome would be. At the moment I believe our only hope is a takeover or pretty substantial investment so removing the board at this stage wouldn't make much sense to me.
I wonder what those that want the board to be sacked think we should do next if that were the case? Bearing in mind the majority of them are still shareholders in the club

I'm being serious here when I say the best thing the board could do now is appoint a fans representative to the board.

Take your pick there are plenty of candidates like Vince, TLG, Corky or if you want the bull in a China shop go for Annis or Big Sam.

It wouldn't do any harm whatsoever to have a fan on board and certainly one of those would be an asset when selling the club to a new investor.

I was thinking that yesterday, how hard would it be for them to get a trust representative or someone else on the board.
It would definitely be a bit of positive pr.

The only problem then though, is as a board member you could be privy to quite a lot of sensitive information and I would imagine it would be pretty difficult having a member of the trust on the board that wasn't able to relay back the information to the fans.

Fair point and of course there would have to be understanding of his position and that he couldn't divulge every minute of a board meeting.

That said though we would never have the Golden Ticket Fiasco again as the board could-not expect the fan to lie to his own.

Also there would be a voice against the indulgences of the Chairman for example staying in 5 star hotels and flying around the world on fruitless trips to American football stadiums.

The aim of the march should be a protest against the way the club has been and is being run. I would love to see the back of Risdsdale but if the whole board were to go, the next day we'd be in Admin and I personally, can't see that as a good thing.

For me, I'd like to know where my money is going. I am happy to pay into the club (within reason, of course) but, if I'm told my money is going to be used to help the club, I'd like it to be used that way. If it's not, I would like to know what it was used for and not ot be treated in a way that pretty much says that I'm not valued

Ridsdale sacked.

He aint doing his job and is getting paid loads.

Nobody will deal with him so he has no chance of obtaining credible investment.

Even Ben Steele mugged him.

What a joker and a Riddler

i Think the march is to show how fed up the fans are of being lied to.
However, i do feel that the Board already know that, and although I have not time for PR, I really blame PMG, I just dont think they got involved for the right reasons for the football club
we badly need new investment/takeover..
just hope the march shows the right side of cardiff city fans, that is the passion, not abusive language or anything unlawful.
doesnt really matter who heads the march, as not one supporter is more important than any other

I expect 1-2,000 to turn up and by us marching and the publicity gained will show Ridsdale and Co, We wont go away and let them KEEP ROBBING OUR CLUB.

Im sure anything other than a mass boycott of games wont affect Ridsdale in the slightest.

He got through the EGM unscathed from what i can gather so a post match protest of 1000 fans will be like water off a ducks back to him.

Personally,i think your stuck with him now.

Blackswan, yes we might be stuck with him for now, but we are going to show him we are not happy to have him here and that we are NO FOOLS.

One particular thing won't change anything, but a number of initiatives (including the march) will keep up the pressure. Most of us have paid for our season tickets so staying away won't really hurt Ridsdale, but whilst we are there we should boycott buying anything from the club.

From now on I will not buy any 50/50 tickets, programmes, merchandise food or drinks from CCFC.

If everyone does the same we would soon get the attention of the board.
