    This isn't a thread about Cardiff City so if you are not interested in reading it just pass over it.










    This is about a Premiership club who's core fans on not606 were recently, lets just say less than graceful about the ethnicity of our new owners.


    Whithout going into specifics the link highlights a real dilemna for those very same fans who appear to be on the brink of signing a talented Asian player who featured in the recent Olympics.



    Are they about to copy the capital city and try tapping into the lucrative Asian market for investment by buying such a player or am I being just a tad cynical?

    You're just an old cynic, I can't believe our friends would be anything less than welcoming to Ki Sung-Yeung. <yikes>

    This could actually work out well for both of us with Kimbo having a fellow countryman playing just down the road. Neither would feel so alone and isolated by having an international team mate close at hand.

    Could our owners stump up the £5m for Ki? <whistle>

    <laugh> I suppose they are more cosmopolitan these days.

    Which City do you reckon the two would go drinking together in BfB?

    bonymaenjack!
    So what your saying is it's ok to racially abuse an Asian owner of another club but not a player from the same region if he plays for your club?

    Please elaborate.
