My only grievance with Cardiff is that it seemed like a lot of their fans too readily accepted changing their club colours in exchange for investment. It also seems now that more are regretting not standing up to Tan earlier (if you read their forums) whilst also noting our response to the name change (bar a fair few on this forum/RH and HDM users). However, that said, they are a relegation rival, so I hope this situations drags on and out across the season culminating in a Zowie Dowie type appointment.
What a bizzare situation. It's even more illogical than ours. How come he got so pissed off by Mackay's comments? All he said was he'd like to sign some players, but he knows it's up to Tan.
Am I wrong in thinking he's a billionaire ? If so, while I appreciate it is a lot of money, I don't get why he's making a big fuss over £15m when Mackay got them to the Premier League. I always thought the plan of tese stupidly rich owners was to get to the PL as like a status symbol. I bet he doesn't even like Chocolate Fingers.
Malky has spent 35m (50m with add-ons)on poor transfers. Malky paid 7.5m for Cornelius, 2.0m for Brayson yet neither have started. Malky recently admitted Cornelius is not ready for the Premier League.
I didn't even know they'd signed him! Cornelius always looked like a weird one to me. They were all raving about him but I just wondered at the time what he'd actually done to generate that excitement and price tag. Scored something like 15 goals in the Danish league didn't he? Is that good?
Not sure a credible manager will want to go there. Is Tan suddenly going to open the purse strings in January for a new guy when he's in a huff about overspending already. Maybe Bruce should put in a crafty bid for Campbell.
It'll be very interesting to see who goes there. Would anyone be surprised if it was some unheard-of Asian mate of Tan's?
Just when Assem was starting to forge a clear lead in the bonkers owner race, little Vincent goes and throws down the gauntlet again. Clarke is too much like Malky, I think it'll be Zola or another non British manager.
Apparently th club has denied it. According to the fans board, Tan's money is all tied up in assets, he has no money as such.
It would be nice if Cardiff's next manager wasn't up to it or couldn't hack the Tan factor (3 to 4 I think). Palace and Sunderland are still the weakest sides in the division and barring a real turn-around they should occupy 2 of the drop spots, but who is the third? Fulham and West Ham both have the players on paper to be able to pull away. Norwich, Stoke and City are managing to stay out of it, so far, so that leaves Cardiff. A crap manager at Cardiff could be worth more than a couple of £6million strikers to us.
