Cardiff City to be rebranded

**THE DON** · 09-01-15, 15:17

Reading back through this is crazy. The first few pages no-one believes the story and most people think its just a massive wind up. Then from about page 9 onwards the penny drops and people suddenly realise this shit is going to happen.

Its quite sobering reading this thread after today's events. Fck, we have just had the mother of all reprieves!

Thank god all this shit is now over.

Quite a few have said that is 100% true.

Awkward..

Three years ago today the opening post of this thread revealed the start of one of the biggest events / moments (and not in a good way) in CCFC history. I wonder, outside of Cardiff fans, what's the first thing another teams supporter would say if you asked them what they thought when you said 'Cardiff City'

I guess hooligans and Welsh would be quite popular and maybe 1927 or John Toshack but I'd guess Red and Rebrand would be quite popular choices as well.

Probably the biggest exclusive of them all delivered by Blue Since 1908 in their one and only ever post. What a debut.

i cant believe its been that long

32 years since i 1st set foot in the ninian when a steward let me in the canton stand at half time for free, seen some bloody awful games, some roller coaster seasons some superb times but we were still happy as pigs in shit

cant believe i went through all that and then it took 3 years to push me away, 1st season in a long time that i wont be going to games, going to have a lovely family holiday instead

Would it be enough to stop you supporting the club though? The name stayS the same and then they just so happened to be on TV, could you bring yourself to support against us, or not watch etc?

Some change their allegiance because results are going against them Bobby, can you believe that?

I'm extremely sceptical I must say. Until a reputable media outlet runs the story I think I will hold my judgement.

Me too, but this morning I've been told that large elements of this story are true (eg: the change of club colours) by someone who is not prone to spreading rumours and who I trust 100%.

I'm hoping that wires have been crossed somewhere along the line and these changes fail to materialise. If they do, I don't know what my reaction would be. As far as I'm concerned, Cardiff City playing home games in a red kit is genuinely unthinkable.

I have taken the story with a pinch of salt so far - but would possibly seek a refund of my season ticket if it turned out to be true. I am aware that clubs such as ours are in existence courtesy of millionaire owners but pandering to their whims in this case would be a step too far for me - and every fan has the right to make their own decisions should this fanciful notion have any gravitas. And if there were a grain of truth in it the owners would have been very wise to gauge reaction prior to making such a decision. It's a possibility that is what we are going through right now.

So how're Celtic getting on Booby?
