Read more of this, the Cardiff fans Board met with the football club. Apparently the malaysians will only inject cash and buy the rest of the club if the rebranding is agreed. They also said in it's present state and with no investment Cardiff will go bust within weeks. So basically the Malaysians are using blackmail. Feel sorry for Cardiff if this is true.
Basically the owners are ****ers. "Red Dragons" to make some tenuous link between Wales/Cardiff and Malaysia to make them more marketable overseas, and also, apparently, Tan (the owner) is very superstitious and red is his lucky colour. There's even a rumour their old Chief-Exec was fired due to "not having a lucky aura"...
Surely stick with blue? Personally Blue Dragon reminds me of Szechuan Pork and water chestnuts, whereas Red Dragon reminds me of liver...and a nice chianti
I used to work in a place where the owners placed great trust in the color and feeling of people's aura..! Fascinating beliefs in Asian cultures and the Cardiff owner is obviously following that as he sees fit. I predict the use of Feng-shui to get their stadium in the right place some day!
Personally I would struggle to sing come on you Blues. As for cardiff well redbirds doesnt sound quite right!
I'm sure none of you will be surprised by the outcome: http://www.walesonline.co.uk/footba...p-plans-to-re-brand-bluebirds-91466-30941926/
