Strange how comments on here seem to imply we are not having much luck in games this season. Didn't Tan tell us red was a lucky colour? How many teams in blue have beaten City this season? Time to stand up for your history Cardiff City not606 posters. See those of you that care on the March prior to the Liverpool game.
I remember Tan saying it, but I'm buggered if i can find any city fan saying it. Must be one or two out there I guess Bob.
I agree 4ever - I'm sure it'll have a massive effect on our fortunes. Then we can all take our seats and support a team in playing in red shirts trying to beat a team that normally plays in red shirts but have to change on the day into something different. I hope it wont be blue though, otherwise they'll probably have all the luck because of it, and nothing to do with ability. If it is blue strip for them next week, that Suarez bloke will probably get 6 at least because he never scores when he plays in red. I can't understand why Liverpool don't change to blue to get him going.
At the end of the day Tan will be with us until he can make a profit on his investment. I can't see many queuing up to buy him out. I think his hope is to get Chinese/far east investment where Red is seen as lucky. He knows this won't come until be are a top half prem side a five year plan. Although most of us would love to play in blue it is not the most important thing at this time, I honestly think that these protests are self defeating putting fan against fan. Talk is that 4 fans were arrested and 8 sent out at Everton yesterday fighting between themselves because of this blue v red fiasco. Time for all sides to grow up and support the team called Cardiff City not the colour.

Don't worry - if that's where you saw it, there'll be an article on WOL before the day's out............
From MM site. http://www.ccmb.co.uk/fudforum/index.php?t=msg&th=385922&start=0&rid=0 It also states on AA that the bars were shut half time because of Cardiff fans fighting between themselves. http://www.cardiffcityforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=138111
some people need to grow the **** up i support cardiff whether they playing in blue, red, green, orange, pink or even white.... i dont give a toss im a cardiff fan not a colour fan just because whittingham is wearing red now doesnt mean he's not the same player we all supported in blue.... we should all be one
I was sat with the Everton fans right in the corner by the city fans. As far as I could see, everyone was in Blue. I did see a couple people escorted out from the city fans and down the access way between the stands. Great support by the travelling fans and was commented on by a number of Everton supporters around me. They stood and clapped in support when 'we'll always be blue.....' was sang and laughed their arses off when 'is there a fire drill.....' rang out as some Everton fans were leaving with 10 mins to go. I had a giggle when they started singing 'WE only sing when we're winning....' when they were 1-0 up. Must admit that they were a quiet lot, though they did comment that our fans were a rowdy bunch. Watched a recording of the game this morning and the city fans were in the ascendancy when it came to singing. Gutted that we couldn't hang on for a point. 3 scrappy goals. A deflection, one off the chin and a total shank to win it. If we play like we did yesterday for the rest of the season I think I'd be satisfied with the team, though I don't know if it will give us the points to stay up. Just need someone who can make the net bulge.
Cheers remote, some good points there. It is the way of football that the away fans often out sing the home fans, when away you never stop singing at home never stop complaining. I think that OGS is starting to get us playing decent football, might be a bit too late but I'm still confident we can beat the drop.
DJ! I've got the same illogical feeling too! And colour means nought if there is no club to support. B Red and alive better than blue and dead. Nice to have it all but not even a lottery win makes it possible.
Frankfurter, Don't get me wrong I'd love to go back to the 1st shirt I saw Blue with Bluebirds on it no badge just Bluebirds. But he who pays the piper calls the tune.
I'm sure I heard there was fighting at Man City too. It's a joke, a few self righteous fans telling other fans what to think. We've got one sat by us, who's started trouble in 2 recent home games because he wants to sit there and call other fans a joke for some reason or another. Then someone calls him on it and you've got 45 year old men threatening each other 3 seats away from women and kids. They're an embarrassment. I'd rather sit by a normal person in a red shirt than some prick who thinks they've got all the answers raging about blue every week whilst ignoring what's happening on the pitch for 80% of the game.
