Tan wants to compromise basically. Will meet with fans after end of season.

I don't see why we don't just play in red shirts with blue shorts. Like Spain.

I don't see why we don't just play in blue shirts and white shorts. Like Cardiff City.

Seriously though, I sincerely hope this change of heart by Tan is true.

Anybody know which fans he'll be consulting with? What odds it's the Trust (as he should), the Supporter's Club(as he should) and assorted hooligans (as he should not).

It's the dynamic duo - Trash and Tache apparently

Oh great, we'll be wearing velour shirts.

Given the source on this story I'll take it with a rather big pinch of salt. It would not be rocket science to ask the Season ticket holders their opinion. We may not change back to blue, but if they do consult the fans, who after all are the heart and soul of any football club, then they will at least be showing that they care what we think instead of simply ignoring us and going ahead with what they want regardless of what we think.

I hope we when eventually we get to the PL that these so called fans representatives will just disappear along with their overblown sense of self importance and disproportionate presence amongst the fanbase. We are no longer a smalltime bit part player where the hoolie minority represent our identity in the football world. Vincent just ignore them and keep backing Malky!

It's alright but for CCFC is just seems so uninspired. It could be very distinctive in Britain yes, but people just seem to be fixated on a Genoa style shirt, as if they're thinking "It MUST BE EQUAL!!"

Out of interest, how many people think this will happen? Not gonna have a pop, just wondering. Do you consider Tan the sort of man to do this?

Actually, I don't. I think there might very well be a meeting but don't think there will be a significant change.
