From Blue to Red

Re: Cardiff's new kit and badge

Really is disgraceful, shows how lucky we are at times to have our owners. Feel for the Cardiff fans.
In regards to us changing our badge wasnt that legal as we werent able to copyright it?

Even the players don't look happy about it.

I was listening to this on Radio 5 Live before and their CEO basically said that the money talked and if they didnt change it was goodbye to the investment.

That in itself is fair enough from the CEO but what kind of owner or investor puts those conditions on the fans like that?

At a recent supporters club meeting, Gary James revealed that Khaldoon had a meeting with him when ADUG first came in and he wanted to know all about the history and tradition of the club. As a matter of fact Khaldoon was the only chairman to have done that. Our owners are VERY much in tune with our history and tradition and lets face it, sky blue hasn't been the luckiest colour so on that basis, if they had suggested we played in pink with yellow spots I'm not sure we could have said no. But our owners have heart and soul and understand all about City. So if they, piling billions into the club can do that, why can't some two bit new money billy big boots malaysian not have the same respect?

IT disgusts me, quite frankly.

Khaldoon did meet me (the day before the Portsmouth game in Sept 2008) and did ask lots of questions about the Club's history and why it exists. When you buy a football club you have to understand what's made it an institution for generations. You are merely the current owner/director/Chairman - you need to look after it and treat it properly.

Yet, despite Khaldoon's interest at the start and all the positives the media still assume that all 'foreign owners' are the same and that City's are perhaps the least caring (especially if you read the rubbish spouted by Colin Shindler etc.).

To me City's current chairman and owner are more interested in preserving City and respecting tradition than most of their predecessors.

I genuinely feel sorry for Cardiff (and Portsmouth and other clubs messed up) - all owners whether English or not need to respect the club's traditions and values.

It's a disgraceful situation - and I can't work out why a red kit will make them more marketable.

Think Malaysia, and the rags and what colour shirt they play in.

I hope Cardiff's owners get slated like ours would. They've changed the identity of the club for marketing. Isn't that what the average football fan calls "selling your soul"?

Actually, it's not that bad an idea. I think our kit would look ace in a bright scarlet red. The blue is beginning to look a bit dated and tired, to be honest.
