Selling Your Soul?

I thought this was an April fool's joke, then realised it was June.
It seems Cardiff have agreed to be "re-branded" to appeal to Asian markets meaning they have to change their colours from Blue to red? the fact the club are globally known as the Bluebirds adds to the confusion.

The Malaysian owners have promised "major and significant investment" although we haven't heard how much.
I think I would be looking for a cast iron agreement for the sort of money that is made available by Sheik Mansour and Roman Abramovich before I would even consider such a change, and I don't think they have that much money, but on the other hand if the club is going to the wall as it might have been before the Malysians came in, maybe it's a price worth paying??


If West Ham were forced to change to red, I might move to Norwich as I've always liked Green and Yellow :)

Gerrard Liverpool Legend

Gerrard Liverpool Legend, that'll be Anthony not Steven as he achieved his life's ambition to win a cup for Liverpool.
Shame about the ending as for the second year the League cup final produced a classic with the underdogs showing the gap between Championship and Premiership is not so great. Liverpool won the corner count by 19 to 3 but Cardiff probably had the best chances in the game and Kenny Miller should have took one of the several chances he had. Steven Gerrard gets to lift the cup but had a pretty average game and was lucky to still be on the pitch after his forearm smash on Gunnarsson.
So well done Liverpool for winning something which will make your supporters unbearable again for a few months :)

The other games today worked out well with Tottenham getting stuffed and Scott Parker getting sent off, also Sheffield Utd losing the Sheffield derby.
