Cardiff City's 'whimsical' rebrand gamble on red [View all]

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18338444

Yeah you read that right. Cardif City FC, also known as the Bluebirds to their fans has some Malasian owners who has "rebranded the club" by changing their colours to red and changed the club crest. This to "be more attractive in the far east market".

What a fucking scandal. Fans will riot over this. These fatcat idiots need to understand that you don't mess with a people's football club.
