Statement following Hahadiff meeting tonight

"At that meeting Alan Whiteley, chief executive of Cardiff City, explained proposals by Malaysian owner Vincent Tan to invest around ?100m in the club.

The investment will improve the stadium, will build new training facilities and offer Malky Mackay money to strengthen the team. The plans would see the stadium expanded to 35,000 seats by 2014.

However, Mr Whiteley said that the investment comes as part of a package with conditions:

From next season Cardiff City will play in red shirts, black shorts and red socks with a blue away kit.
The Bluebirds badge will be changed to that of a dragon.
But the name will remain as Cardiff City Football Club."
