Like all Cardiff City fans I will have my fingers cross the news will be BLUE after tonight’s meeting between the club and fans. Rumours abound on social media that the outcome will be a U-turn on the rebranding.
The press are saying owner Vincent Tan will be attending the meeting but it is unknown if he is flying in or video conferencing. It is important he listens to how the majority of the fans feel. A selection of around 40 fans who are from various Cardiff City supporters' organisations have been invited to a meeting with chairman Mehmet Dalman and chief executive Ken Choo and possibly Tan. On the agenda the rebrand and club finances.
When the word ‘consultation’ is bandied about, it does not bode well or overly excite me that a decision will be made tonight. The best I believe we will get is a maybe and a load of old flannel I just do not see him in the mind for a change. However, if he is looking to sell the club he will need a united club and the fans to invest there money.
Season tickets sales for this season are down and there is a new campaign to not renew for next season, which could damage the club even more. The take up on the red team shirt and other red merchandise has been poor and hit the club financially. While the club are struggling, a number of budding entrepreneurs have stepped in selling unofficial blue merchandise filling the gap left by the club.
