Don’t shoot the messenger.
This is a copy & paste from the other forum ……
OK, the call and clamour for protest has now been voiced loud and clear by so many, , it can't be ignored.
The first march was a success in terms of numbers up to the ground, then dispersed at the vital time when we needed to show solidarity at the front entrance to the stadium. This time, the march and all those interested in protesting NEED TO GET TO THE FRONT ENTRANCE and make your voices heard.
If you dont protest now, you will NEVER protest. If you feel we should be supporting the team and the club, we will be, inside the ground. Lets make this clear, we are NOT against the team, we never have been, we are Cardiff City fans for goodness sake. We are against the theatrical running of the club, its non existent owners, the lack of leadership, the lack of knowledge and understanding shown by the board, and most of all the apathy shown in terms of understanding what success looks like, what the club mean to the fans, and our history. Not our colour change, but our history as being a club that no team fancied visiting, that no away fans fancied visiting. We can have an intimidating atmosphere but still behave and stay within the law.
You can only support the team but more importantly YOUR CLUB.... BY PROTESTING. Please do not show the apathy that is shown by the board. Please do not sink to their level.
What we ask? Your support, in numbers. How much do you want change? We need to make the Swansea march small by comparison. As I have said, if you dont march or protest now you never will. Banners, flares (Not to be taken into the ground), voices, passion, feeling and a definite mindset that the board should either go or adequately invest, change their ways, and employ football people in footballing positions within the set up.
I will add to this daily if I can. Work has been a nightmare for me, with the added pressure of redundancy rearing its ugly head. I cannot do this, and the group that put together the amazing Swansea march cannot do this on our own.
Bring your Tan Out Scarves, make your banners. Banners are incredibly cheap to make. Please buy your material at Hillside Fabrics in Beddau. Cheap as chips. Get them printed with whatever you want at Re-Inspire Printing Treforest Industrial Estate. (And No, I'm not on any commission)
Start? Admiral Cowbridge Rd East
Meeting time? 90 Minutes Prior to Kick off
March End Point? THE FRONT OF THE ENTRANCE TO THE CARDIFF CITY STADIUM.
We want our club back, we want our fans back, we want Cardiff City back. Yes, we want Riza gone, and yes, the board needs to go or invest and change dramatically.
I'll be updating this thread with a message from Dan tomorrow. I'll also show you messages that the Tan out Group have sent to the club requesting meetings which have been totally ignored. We have had promises, promises, promises from the club, but have heard nothing regarding airing our views and those of the fans.
I'd encourage the FAB and the Supporters Trust and the Supporters Club to get behind us. You are true fans like everyone else. Your support is vital. We extend a hand of friendship, and solidarity. It is an extraordinary situation for you within these organisations and not easy to have the courage of your convictions, yet you guys are pivotal to change.
Tan will take notice. Will he do anything ? Possibly not, but if we dont show where our own hearts lie, we are giving him the green light to continue his demolition and dismantling of our club.
Please, reply with a Yes or a No? Will you protest? Will you bring your banners, scarves, flares and voices?
