    Why can I hear a man with an American voice saying "Ken Miller has scored a point for the South Wales Reds soccer team"?

    I would love to just roundhouse that mascot across his goofy * smiling face.

    On another note..this is what you get for playing in English Football Cardiff, Money>Everything else important in this beautiful game.

    Not happy at all about this, but honestly cant see this happening as CCFC would lose a * load of fans. The Malaysian to be fair has done well for the club to this point, as we were in a spot of financial bother, but this is a step too far, effectively bribing us. What use is having a 35,000 seater stadium when probably 5-10,000 fans will boycott the club anyway, we've always been the BLUEbirds.

    This could backfire on us and he walks away and we go under, but i would rather be in the lower league as the bluebirds rather than in the prem as the dragons fir * sake

    So were these Malaysian fellows right along then? Cardiff seem to be going well in their new red strips.

    They usually start the season well but bottle it near the end.

    They were 2nd for most of the season a couple of years ago until Norwich overtook them right at the end....one time a few years before that, they missed out on the playoffs on Goals Scored and lost a play-off final to Blackpool as well.

    They've got a few good players and a pretty decent manager as well and they probably will go up, providing they don't lose Whittingham or Hudson in January.

    They are always near the top every year and then never get promotion, their fans must be one of the most frustrated sets of fans in Europe.

    not to mention how the Super Swans have ghosted past them after only 2 years in the Championship to be the golden boys of the Premier League. Give us another few years in the Premier League without thenm and they'll never recover. Wales will be ours

    Sound like an evil genius IMO. Why would you want Wales anyway.

    Still can't actually believe a mental Asian guy really changed the entire history and indentity of a club just to appease potential new fans 10 thousand miles away:56:

    Any real Cardiff fan should have boycotted their club and formed a newco tbh. It's not like they just changed from hoops to stripes either or anything like that, blue to red ffs it's as big a shift as could be!

    I think it was the significance of them changing from the 'Bluebirds' to that Red Dragon logo was the thing that * them off the most.

    But for some, the added investment to try and get them into the EPL and join their main rivals meant they begrudgingly accepted it.

    That is * mental!

    I don't think that will happen, there's no chance the fans would let that happen. But, then again, I said that about the strips and badge...

    The guy tan should be toppled ASAP. What's more important to these Cardiff fans, money and success or history and tradition. This isn't the * NHL or the NFL, you can't just change a 'brand' and think it'll be fine. These are clubs not franchises. Why the * are people tolerating this. * I really * hate football these days. And I'm only 23! Wish I was born in the 60's
