I hated hammams nonsense , almost as bad as tans red wriggling worm

Ageee, especially the one where they removed Cardiff City from it and just had bluebirds in an attempt to rebrand us.

Just an oversized Bluebird for me.
Iconic and instantly recognisable as us by any football fan.

The jacks with that simple swan silhouette is very effective and so is our Bluebird.

In your face

I got it tattooed.
But had it altered to say Cardiff City FC.
It’s not as bad as some of my other tattoos:)

Re: badge change

I think the 'Riverside' badge is a bit fanciful. There aren't any extant pictures of the shirts, just a mention of the colours..

Shirts were Chocolate and Amber quarters.

Re: badge change

Ive never liked badges that include a football, I don't really know why though.

Re: badge change

To be pedantic the traditional livery of Cardiff Buses until 1972 was Crimson Lake and Cream. See link below under Livery Chronology

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cardiff_Bus#Branding

I was working for the Council in the last days of Cardiff Buses in Crimson Lake and Cream and the traditionalists in the Transport Dept in Wood St and Sloper Rd were very protective of the old livery and were not happy at all with the move to orange

Those colour buses were part of my childhood/youth, should never have changed the colour, they were Cardiff through & through.

Just seen a brand spanking new electric bus in those colours, in town :thumbup:

Yes, it looks good. What annoyed me was when they said a few years ago they were going to change them back to the original colour then made them all orange.

1969-1980 for me. But I'd gladly settle for the '80's/'90s badge.

Shocking I thought

I won't buy anything of tans either till he gets rid of that minute red maggot
