Sounds like an absolute farce. Would be livid if I was a fan, hopefully your fans will have some sway and block it.

biggest problem is the new breed of football fans. They don't give shit about history as long as club is winning and attracting big named players.

I'll bet you that if Cardiff goes through with this and goes to become a challenging team in PL then a ton of modern footie fans will flock to the club, just like man city and chelsea

Dont like CCFC but this is a fuckin disgrace !!! It stinks I honestly feel for you , but after all your only the fans ar'nt you. No consideration for the fans , more corporate bollocks . But the Bluebird / shirt colour or go bust ?........toughie that. There should be rules about these fuckin money men walking in and doing what the fuck they want.
Very bad show.

This is the first I've heard of this and I'm genuinely outraged even though I have no feelings either way for the club.

For me the colour of the kit means far more than just the shirt that's worn on matchday, it impacts on your whole life. Asking me to choose red whether clothing, car, paint etc after a lifetime of actively avoiding it would be unthinkable. I know a lot of fans are not as 'petty' as me but I know a lot are.

Without being harsh on Cardiff how many Malaysians will choose Cardiff when there are alternatives actually winning games?

what's all this about Cardiff having 104 years of history???? Do you not know history means you have to have won the European Cup???

joking aside, this is just a disgrace. I thought the thread was a wind up. The more I watch some of the owners around, I gotta say, we could have done a hell of a lot worse than the Ruskie. I read the likes of this and I understand how my lifetime love of football is just ebbing away. Saying that, Bates did change our badge to that god awful Millwall rip-off. But changing your colours? FFS, who advises these people.

Didn't Cardiff almost go bust? The opposite might be that these clubs could disappear entirely without foreign investment and ownership.

Bankers. Thats what happened with the venkys and Blackburn Rovers.

They're not a bunch of Chinese sheep herders are they?

We're skint yes but trying to clear it instead of going down the Swansea route of going into Admin twice. They've said that they won't invest unless we agree to the changes. They've now said that without the investment it's liquidation. They've hidden that from us though.

I'd rather be playing in the Western Football League than go ahead with what they're proposing. I really would.

Sounds like blatant blackmail. On what basis would you automtically go into liquidation without agreeing to their demands that you become Malay (South Wales) Redbirds FC ? Is their a winding up order already in place ?
I'm guessing the FA & Football League are doing their utmost to help....?

Easy to talk looking in from the outside but this is about survival right? Id want to take their money, save the club, build the academy, improve the stadium and then when they run out of cash / piss off back to malaysia get back to how things should be.

That's what has been said unofficially, I don't know how much truth there is to it though. No doubt if they would piss off, we'd be stuck with £100m+ of debt, we're fucked either way.

Nothing, in fact we've been told that they've been putting £1m a month into the club to keep us afloat. They were getting shares and what not in return. I was under the impression things were looking up on the money side but now we're told we're 'weeks' from going under.

They've backtracked already. Happy days.

This is disgraceful, 100 years of tradition fucked off on a whim. Apparently the Malaysians reckon red is lucky, well let me tell you sunshine reds done absolutely fuck all for Bristol city for 100 years!!

Thought you'd lot be laughing at us to be honest. The jacks are loving it

I'm a football traditionalist mate, although we have a healthy rivalry I wouldn't like to see Cardiff go under and I definatly don't want to see them playing in red.if this can happen to you lot what next?
Football as we know it is going right down the pan.

Gegen den modernen Fussball. Contro il calcio moderno. Mot den moderne fotballen. Against modern football. Etc.

Every football fan should care strongly about things like this. Gutted if it happened to my club.

Done deal, er.

Disgraceful ...

I see they've kept their Blue kit for their away kit.

I'm knocking it on the head next season. Can't be arsed with it now.

20 years?

More like 6 months.

Was appalled when I heard. Shocking stuff. Club's identity sold to the highest foreign bidder who fancies a sporty plaything.
