Agent Tan strikes again! on 09:37 - Dec 14 by reddythered
2011/12 was the last time.
much as I find it generally amusing to have a bit of a laugh at Cardiff's woes, I have to say that I don't really see the problem in having a white change kit. As has been pointed out, we've played in blue and I never saw the problem with it - in fact that original adidas blue kit the year we first went up to the first division (the promotion season) was one of my favourites.
I guess though that the fans (or some of them) are seeing all this now as Tan trying to 'get at' them and it's all become a little irrational? Or perhaps he just is a vindictive little so and so? Do you think this is deliberate?

Great post this. This guy exposes Cardiff fans for the cowards that they are.

He's already turned us red, given us a dragon badge, pretty much killed the Bluebird and put a load of red seats in. Shame on him indeed. His time at our club will go down as a dark time in our history.
And SEVENTY fans did something about it :sad7: (and at least two of them were kids who had the decision made for them).
I hate Tan for what he has done and is doing but when he said he was going to do it I walked. Red - for the premier league dream. I think he delivered that. Is it such a surprise to everyone after Sam and Risdale that the money he spent doing that is charged against the club? :roll: I couldn't watch a team playing in red (as a nod to Liverpool, Manchester United and Arsenal, three teams I've spent my life despising for attracting a legion of armchair South Walians who use the word 'we' when referring to 'their' club 150-200 miles away that they've never seen or experienced on a live-bouncing terrace).
Seems to me the only real backlash happened AFTER Tan's money had bought his version of Cardiff City the Championship trophy and got his version of Cardiff City to the Premier League, had his free scarves waved all over the stadium. :oops: Even then the few organising the demonstrations were accused of being self-serving or encouraging intimidation/violence with a stream of lies/exaggerations thrown their way.
While Cardiff were beating Manchester City and Swansea at home, for most, everything was sweeter than ever. Once there was a downturn in results and the more and more likely that relegation was looming there was a huge sway toward tradition, identity and a growing Anti-Tan feeling. I can understand why VT was surprised that all of a sudden it seemed more than a vocal minority were against his vision, why he is maybe now turning the screw in a vindictive way. (Or is he just continuing with his plan that he thought was accepted by the grateful PAYING majority).
Maybe now Tan sees Cardiff fans as the spoilt child who promised to clean their bedroom every week for the new toy they wanted but when the toy didn't turn out to be half as much fun as it was supposed to be, the deal didn't seem fair. He has only increased the club debt but for those who thought there was a genuine chance that he would clear all our debts recall every owner we've had since the late 70's and ask yourself how many times do you have to be bitten to be shy? :shock:
:sad7:
I keep hearing that 'we'll always be blue' but the FACT is club has been red for two and a half years and while I'd like to give every fan that turns up in blue or waves their blue scarf a pint (about as much chance of that happening as VT clearing the debt...sorry), as long as people keep paying their hard-earned to watch the side AT HOME then the club will be red.

from a purely business POV, why would Tab stir the natives up now? Surely the best time to do it is when the club is in the PL and he can fill the ground with customers?

I don't think he really gives them much of a thought any more. If and when they don't get back to the PL this season, his full exit strategy, whatever it is (and he will have one, rich men always do) will kick in. Still, that's what 'investment' from people who have no history with your club does for you.

The whole "colour clash" crap came from the WalesOnline media stable.
Always find it amazing, like the "Slade / Real Madrid" crap, when that suddenly becomes a trusted and accurate source of information.
