Bluebirds 1 Fulham 0 > The Day Nobody Saw Coming






You’ve probably heard that In the latest episode of the CCFC dramatic soap opera boxset epic, the owner has now decided he was wrong all along about all his red dragon s**t and 'lucky red'. He's even preaching about ‘unity’ - Who saw this one coming?

Vincent Tan’s statement on Friday quoted JFK and revealed his dear sweet momma to be behind his uncharacteristic u-turn (I spat my tea across my desk at work in a mix of shock and amusement whilst reading it)

So, in the blink of an eye and a Skype call from the owner in Malaysia, the issue dividing the fanbase, effecting the players and making the club a global laughing stock for almost three years has gone.

Saturday was a celebration of the return to the club’s traditions but should we applaud the owner for returning what should never have been taken away in the first place? I appreciate the gesture from Tan, but I see no reason to thank anybody or sing their name.

It’s a new start for Tan and City supporters but let’s hope he behaves or we’ll have to tell his mum. 



















  
The crowd volume was naturally cranked up for the game, and even though the game itself was tight and scrappy, the support was relentless. City fans have been so plagued with rage this season they've been like a 12th man FOR THE OPPOSITION but now they've been rebooted and could prove a big factor in the late push for the play-offs.   

The wave of euphoria sweeping the club could also prove vital in rebooting the players who have a bitch of fixture list ahead. 




Hopefully, this club reboot also gives the manager a breather at the right time with two or three weeks of the transfer window to run. He has work to do and has started well with both new boys Scott Malone and Alex Revell impressing on the debuts at the weekend.

Malone looks steady at left back and even likes tackling while Revell up top was working like a dog for the team and winning every header on offer.

A few more ins and outs could see the squad ready for the run in and putting up a fight. 


So, the ground was loud, the football was poor and the shirts were blue. It's the City everyone loves back from the dead!
