    So what?
    The figures speak for themselves, it's concerning because the club loses parachute payments next season and, in the unlikely event of you being a Championship club next season, you will be supporting a club haemorrhaging money, with a significantly lower turn over and a dus interested fan base (for many reasons).

    However, the blues are finally going up and, as with everything, the Premier League will solve all these issues.
    Your use of the word "you" puts you in Chris and Jursset's category, in fact I'd say worse as at least they are open about which side they "support".
    You may as well be a Jack.

    Even if we fall short its been what supporting a club is all about.

    12th man on Saturday. Didnt play well but no moans or getting on the players back.

    BIS is selective. More home fans for Saturday at 745 on Sky than v West Ham in the play offs pre rebrand.

    29000 plus v Wolves. A record crowd.

    I am under no illusions about my "credibility" on here, but facts are facts. Crowds are shit, and I have seen people here blame everything except Tan. Now that is being selective!
    So you blame the rebrand for "low" attendances and then use an example from a season we were in red to back up your argument?

    Anyway I reckon we lost a lot more fans because of the hooligan era than the rebrand (I have no evidence for this) but still believe that to be the case.

    Wonder what it would have been like if we had the internet in the "good old days"

    That is a certainty , hooliganism affected a generation of potential new supporters

    You're bang on the button. Hooligans ruined this club for many years.
    I wonder how many 'fans' stayed away once we became a family club.

    What with being 6 point away form the worlds richest league and having broken the stadium record for a Cardiff City match both in the league and cup in recent months, it's really great that there is at least one voice of reason on here, you should be very proud of yourself. You don't sound like a complete knob at all.

    After all you probably only do it, selflessly, out of your honourable deep concerns for the way the club is heading and to try and save us foolish enough to give our continued support from the disastrous long term effects of VT's reign..

    I think it's difficult for us sellout fans to see past the success sometimes and realise how much better it would be, even if we had to battle in the lower leagues for sometime and await, maybe forever, a local hero benefactor such as what Swansea once had.. At least we'd have the truly passionate and principled people such as yourself at the ground week in, week out... We really seem to be going to hell in a handbasket right now, I mean, we'd be doing so much better right now without the likes of VT, right?

    Or maybe your'e just a c unt..?
    what a post

    Some people must have been desperate for us to get a low crowd for Reading. It's pathetic..
