    Confirmed by sky that from next season they will wear a red strip and the badge will incorporate a red dragon because their owners believe they'll be more attractive to the expanding asain market.

    Worst nightmare for any club. Not quite as bad as what happened to Wimbledon but this robs the club of their identity

    The simplest answer is for Cardiff fans to just not buy the new shirt and keep turning up with the blue shirts on.

    Easy.

    I agree, think the away kit is blue so they should all just buy that.

    Best example yet of overseas owners not understanding the heritage of the club they own!

    We have played in a predominantly white home top with red pinstripes early 1980's and actually our first strip was all blue.

    Only foreign owners with no sense would do that.

    I know Ellis Short is foreign, but I believe he is very level headed and would never do this.

    However, if we were to go back to half red and half white tops would you like it? or even the all blue tops?

    I like the red strip though, looks quite nice.

    I understand both sides tbh

    Whereas i would never want Sunderlands colours to change if it meant serious investment, massive transfer budget, new facilities etc etc, then you have to at least consider it?
