The re##### was for me always each to their own opinion. Personal choice for me not to attend after it and to continue to do so after City reverted back to blue. Got mates who continued to attend and some who didn't. There was no drama with them as nobody took the moral higher ground in regards to the differences of opinion.
The decision of getting a ticket was taken from me but may have done me a favour because I can be a stubborn baastard like that. Still don't like Tan but unless asked wouldn't be vocal about my opinions.
Enjoy the day all, hope it goes City's way.

Decision taken away from you? Fair play, a man of principle! Haha
I don't care if people attend or not, but to come here doubling your point by saying I'm going but I didn't want to is a bit nauseating. Talk about drama after 4 years.
This is a perfect case of cringe.

Discussed it (briefly) with two match going Bluebirds last week. One was chuffed with me going as we were regulars to City games, home and away during the 80s/90s and pre rebrand. The other conveyed a rather similar position to my butty Louth. Funny really as he got his first season ticket when City last got promoted to the Premier League.
You are right though, I'm attending as my father and father in law are nearing 80 so it's about enjoying those moments. 👍
Glad to have you back.

I've always found face to face conversation to be more tolerant of one another's views regardless of our differing opinions between mates and family, online is always a free for all with people happily being abusive, saying things they likely wouldn't when sat round a table in say a pub. People are happy to type "you're an idiot" etc but wouldn't take that stance if doing it face to face, even after a few pints and shorts.
Hope you have a good day tomorrow and the bug comes back, whatever anyone says.

I've never had a problem saying it in or out of drink.
The same could be said for people looking for attention and playing the sentimental card. Ffs go to the game or not. No need to be all luvvy about it.
"I haven't been for 5 years etc" I was almost forced to etc.
Yer man needs to get a grip

You have no problem announcing when you attend games. Why do care when someone else does it? You seem to care a lot about others expressing their opinions or circumstances. You also are quick to infer whatever values you choose. What on earth makes you think anyone is "playing the sentimental card"? You have no evidence to back that up. Why can't you just live and let live?

For long enough I've had to read about certain fans taking the high moral ground. I haven't been for so long etc etc as if they're martyrs.
Go to the game and enjoy, don't make a fecking meal of it. " I don't know how I'll feel blah blah blah. Talk about milking it. Also, it just happens to be promotion day, they tend to leave that part out of it. He's not even pretending he's there for the big day and to celebrate 'its out of my hands ' What a legend
Yeah, I announce it because I'm actually excited about attending games, even after all these years. Plus I look for advice.

Re: Sunday is my first game since the rebrand.
It's a message board. People have to talk about something. And everybody has different ideas/feelings/opinions/circumstances. Don't let it bother you. At least the bloke who stared this thread seems genuine and not a WUM.
-
Re: Sunday is my first game since the rebrand.
Louth, I'd understand a bit better if it wa say BIS starting this thread. But the fella posting seems decent. Also from reading the board over time it looks like a few know him as well, so he's not some wind up.

Only one thing matter today lads. Whatever your background we are all City, let's get behind the boys and cheer them from start to finish.
On a day like this no place for petty arguments 👍

If all else fails Jordi, just tell Louth and Shute you’ve been following Fulham for the past few years instead.

He could have gone after relegation from the premiership. With his debt secured by a floating charge over the club he could have recouped the bulk of his debt by stripping the club to the bone, selling any asset of value including the playing staff.
He could have run the club as a shell putting the youths out plummeting down the leagues, not particularly giving a shit while pocketing the parachute payments.
That fact that he stuck around, retained the structure of the club, getting us to where we are now speaks volumes for the guy, especially after the vile abuse aimed at him.
Hope it goes well and you enjoy a memorable occasion today. Just remember to thank VT. It wouldn't have happened without his continued commitment to the club.

Nice post 👍🏻
Great to see the scenes. Best day in my Cardiff City life. A truly great season. The togetherness is unbelievable.
Thank you Tan, Mehmet, Neil and an amazing squad of players

It's a bit strange that after what has been perhaps the best season in many a year, you still have such hatred for our owner. With FFP it's not possible to just invest 100million like that. Time will tell if you are right or not but on the evidence so far he has really got things right on and off the pitch with the help of the chairman and manager. What a fantastic season and I can't wait to see what Neil does with a bit of money. Hopefully we'll be smart and get a few younger players to build for the future. :ayatollah:

Re: Sunday is my first game since the rebrand.
I take back my comments back from earlier. Put it down to nerves and drink.
Great scenes from CCS

Re: Sunday is my first game since the rebrand.

Fantastic atmosphere, fantastic occasion for the supporters. Warnock deserves never to buy another drink in Cardiff.

Re: Sunday is my first game since the rebrand.
It was also my first game in a while. Great atmosphere, reminded me of the city I fell in love with as a kid.
Wasn’t a big fan of the adulation Tan got at the end, and his apology is a bit meh (he doesn’t actually say sorry...).
Glad there are fans enjoying it. It kinda put a downer on it for me. Maybe I’ll try again in a few years.

Genuinely enjoyed the whole day. Thrilled for City in 'going up' and thrilled for mates who kept going where I decided to bunk out. The atmosphere was fantastic and it did feel like City again.

What you apparently refuse to acknowledge is that the debt is owed to VT and he is gradually paying off/converting the debt over a number of years, in accordance with FFP rules. When he goes/sells eventually the debt will go with him and now we are back in the Premier League, what the club owe him will reduce a lot quicker. From what I recollect about the accounts, he has converted £8-11m of debt each year for the last three years - you talk about this as though it us a piffling amount. Have you got £8m to put into the club or would you if you did have it ? - no I didnt think so. Your language about our owner is appalling by the way.

Re: Sunday is my first game since the rebrand.
First game of the season yesterday. Another old folks Saga trip.
Couple of pints with old mates in The Grange pre & post match. Level 5 is a bit windy and cold but really enjoyed the game, atmosphere was good. City got something about them haven't they.
Am I allowed to say this? Can somebody ask my butty Louth for his thoughts?

We should leave the past in the past.
Today is a great day to be a City fan, let’s makre the most of it as who knows what tomorrow might bring .
Personally I was so proud, sat in the ground yesterday knowing all 3 of my kids were sharing my joy and having pride in their club and where they come from.
Someone put a video up of an old game from 1991 and there couldn’t have been 3000 there.
A lot of us remember those times . There was 30000 there yesterday.
How far have we come ?
And if we can miraculously stay up a few seasons maybe we can build something here even better ?

I love those games when the weather is terrible, the atmosphere goes one way or the other.
Either way great to see us win again and hopefully you’ll enjoy more games like yesterday.

The crowd was the thing that struck me the most. There were a few empty seats around me but 30000+ is a hell of a difference of the bumper crowds City used to enjoy of 6 or 7 thousand. The crowd in level 5 were a good mix, young, old and middling. Atmosphere was good and all were genuinely behind the team.
Warnock's injected enthusiasm into the club and after the recent history the club experienced, that's his greatest achievement.
City not the best in terms of quality but they are committed and work their balls off and as a supporter that's all you can really ask.
