    "But you have to be patient, accept the criticism and sometimes the insults. Right now, at this point in time, I will stay, unless the fans really p*** me off so much, then I may leave."

    Lets face it, he know's the abuse wont stop and the CCS will continue to sing "always be blue" and "Vincent Tan your a w****r" etc.

    Technically, in that case, he will leave very shortly?

    The Mad Hatter will continue to cause mayhem at City even after his departure.

    Been a regular season ticket holder since Lennie's final season with us, prior to Hilts m8 taking over in 2004/5 and a casual home and away supporter since 1973/4 season prior to that but no more. I know I'll probably regret it at some stage but I just don't enjoy going any more. Even the fifth year of the golden ticket deal isn't enough to tempt me, so as they say on Bluebirds Den -" I'm out!"

    Already renewed my ST and will continue supporting the team, but I cant help feeling I'm supporting a completely different club so I understand what your saying

    decisions wise (apart from rebrand) most have been the right ones, and i'm sure we'll find out in due course the clubs side of the story with regards to the sacking of MM....

    the thing i dont like is his view of the fans as customers and coming out every now and again and threatening to liquidate the club, saying if we dont conform then we are against cardiff city and how our club is nothing to him and he can easily find a club that will gratefully accept a rebrand (as if)...............

    There are plenty that would accept a rebrand in order to see a light at the end of the tunnel look at plymouth argyle i'm sure they would

    Nobody would accept a re-brand if they are true honest supporters, Its the history of the club and means so much to supporters especially those who have supported a club all their life. A club is not a toys for boys plaything to do whatever they want as you can see from the reaction of people in football....I would rather watch the swans in div2 than follow some rich guys team that bares no resemblance to what i have supported all my life. the club belongs to the fans in Cardiff and not for the people in Malaysia...Nobody would accept being re branded elsewhere and why would they...

    Dai, no offence, but Swansea today bears no resemblance to the club that existed just 5 years ago, rebrand or not.
    Like it or not, we are all the little bitches of the rich Prem regardless of owners :(. However I do agree that fan power is a massive commodity, which we have/others can use. The problem the redbirds face is the price to just place a stake on the table is mental at present.


    They need our well wishes and support right now, not pontificating.


    KTF you guys :)

    Dai!
    I don't think he would be made too welcome where I sit with a red shirt on from his bampy.

    I don't think any fan should be given grief over their shirt colour. They've paid to be there and deserve the right to watch the game without being judged (I don't wear football shirts and have a blue scarf which I wear if its cold).

    Anyone who has a go at a child about a red shirt needs to get a ****ing life. If I saw that happen it would make me question my ST as I honestly wouldn't want to be a fan of a club that has a go at the kids supporting it!!

    Its not whether someone wears a red shirt or blue shirt that is irrelevant as the shirt wearing is a relatively new thing that fans do. It the principle of it that matters. Why would anyone want to change the clubs badge that is the symbol of identity and pride i don't get, Another thing that i have noticed is with the red shirt and badge, Nobody have forced anyone to buy it in the first place and could have easily boycotted the sales and continued to wear your last blue shirt with the bluebird badge where the message is far stronger than a few holding placards saying tan out rubbish. Dont buy anything that promotes Malaysia is a strong message to send out to the arrogant sod.

    You still haven't answered the question posed in comment 14. I even highlighted your misquote to make it easier for you to follow. Try again.

    you stated "Even the fifth year of the golden ticket deal isn't enough to tempt me, so as they say on bluebirds den -" i'm out!" this implies that you are not renewing your season ticket for the 2014/15 season as that is the fifth year of the "golden ticket" deal put in place during the 2009/10 season by then chairman peter ridsdale which meant that season ticket prices would freeze for the following five years of which next year will be the last, so that's where you said you wouldn't be going next season okay

    And again you ignore the obvious. Where did I say, to quote your misquote " because Vincent tan wants Cardiff City to move forward." Something you accredited me with saying. Can you now see where you have misquoted me? For the sake of putting this to rest please say you can see it and I'll accept your apology.
