Another Rebrand Brecon Beacons No More

Re: Another Rebrand Brecon Beacons No More

Yeah, without taking this off topic into an area that has been discussed ad nauseum before, I obviously thought the idea stupid but I was open minded to an extent - I gave it a go. It so happened I used my mates ST for a couple of early games but it instantly felt like it wasn't my club at all. It just felt wrong. I remember my opinion really changed when we played away (to Blackpool I think) and we wore black and red instead of blue and it struck me that he really wanted to eradicate the clubs history. Then scarf gate came and I was like, fk this. Was quite active with Bluebirds Unite then etc.

I think the thing that bugs me here is dropping the English wording. It's what it's known as and has been for a long time. History matters (I love history!!) But the present matters more.

History does/did matter and I admire your stance. Since the rebrand I'm more than apathetic to any future changes as I see them as inevitably happening, whatever they might be.

Personally on this topic I'd have no issue with bilingualism being used but would question the validity if only Caerdydd was used by the club?

How about Caerdyf, older Welsh form for the place?

Re: Another Rebrand Brecon Beacons No More

Yet I don't care a jot that English wording has been dropped. We're in Wales. The majority of place names in this country are in Welsh and that causes no problems at all. Up near me is a place called Mountain Ash. For hundreds of years it was happily known as Aberpennar or Dyffryn, then a land owner suggested the name due to several Mountain Ash trees in the vicinity.

I know of older people who still use county names like Mid Glamorgan, even though they haven't existed for years now. In another generation they'll all be forgotten. Bit like the Beacons name. It'll be forgotten in 50 years.

I have no problems reclaiming Welsh names for things.

I bet the locals in Cynon Valley are clamouring for it to go back to Welsh name. I know the coach of FC Cwmaaman in SWA Leage, and he said entire team still fuming about it.

We could just have a classy retro style blue-out shirt with CPDC in that jazzy old 60s font going diagonalwards up the left tit on it. Break it in all ITK n shit.

I can't quite picture this in my head but I'm interested.

Have you ever considered that the way in which you try to orchestrate pile ups on certain posters probably leads them to changing their user names in order to avoid posters like yourself?

Successful online platform like this thrive when service users take note of other posters contributions and opinions (however outlandish they may appear) and respond with respect and dignity. Sometimes it’s probably best not to respond at all if it’s something you really don’t like.

I actually think it’s hilarious how you are constantly looking for a reaction whilst hiding behind your anonymity and posters similar to you eventually get their privileges removed by the moderators.

The User Id started taunting Bob for his overuse of commas in its 5th post before giving stupid answers to Bob's quizzes. This is having previously slagged off surly scousers and somewhere called Knewport. If User Id's like that want respect and dignity then perhaps they should start by giving it.

This is like the Israel v Palestine conflict. Except worse.

I thank you TWGL1.

Yep, the absolute nerve, nay audacity nay temerity to have a bit of fun. I’ll remember to show more reverence to our Bob in future. End of story. (Line from Fargo)
