    I am sorry but watching ML on the side of the pitch and in interview, he was clearly very bothered by the result. Unless somebody knows the exact travel arrangements for ML or the weekly training and meeting schedules then this is just made up speculation.

    ivor was suggesting that he hadn't been fully backed by the board at all times. At least that's how I read it.

    Reading this I thought I'd strayed on to the Cardiff site!

    1) First off , who is 'we' in "but we understand the board are split over his future at the Liberty Stadium"
    2) If the trust wants him out where has this been published.
    3) Who are the senior figures? Name names.
    4) Why do you get off on inventing stories?
    5) Is there any point Huw Jenkins making statements
    6) Why should Laudrup cut short a trip to SEE HIS DAUGHTER WHO LIVES IN PARIS for a nothing event?

    I dont care if she lived in cardiff, He had a duty to attend an important meeting and that is what we pay him big bucks for...What manager in their right mind would go swanning off until Tuesday knowing full well we are a shambles and have two important games coming up....sack the useless git and bring in someone who actually knows what he is doing...

    Dai was right I believe (sorry Dai...but then again, shoot a shotgun into a barrell enough times and you will hit something)

    Huw answering the questions put to him...they just asked the wrong questions


    If you want to copy and paste my thread on the other forum, feel free... but it seems big changes today at the Liberty. BIG CHANGES

    Anyone else heard the rumours?

    My qualified source tells me changes are already in place.

    Laudrup jetted off to Paris straight after the game.

    Senior players and spaniards alike are not behind the guy. The board have approached legal reps with statistical data showing fitness levels are well down. Senior players reveal Laudrup walked in for match talk pre West Ham just 5 minutes before with no direction just that they are a big bunch and to watch em /beat them

    Outcome is...

    Wieghorst nutritionist and fitness coach sacked while ML is away (returns tomorrow)

    Monk now number 2 due to lack of badges

    Previous nutritionist and fitness coach return.

    Incumbent manager from overseas already to go for this summer but who knows (not revealing the manager ...but not on the betting radar)



    YOWSERS!!!

    If true (and I dont foubt the source) crazy day at the office. If anyone can get them up for this weekend though, its Monk

    Cheers Swim <cheers>

    This is nothing to do with advertising, he's is refering to an article he has created on a different forum, and maybe we should appreaciate he has posted this over here for those of us who don't post over there to hear <ok>

    I can confirm that I have had information from one of the starting XI, that Laudrup is completely inept with motivating the squad and team, which most of us have figured out anyway, but it was interesting to hear it directly. Anyway I've given you all the fact previously that this Saturdays game is a marker, and it's his last chance saloon, whether Jenkins denies it in the press or not. Jenkins statements that the subject has not been discussed, is nothing short of laughable also..................<ok>

    Dude. Laudrup is in Paris so it hasnt been duscussed. Half the spaniards were allowed to f**k off back to Spain to return tomorrow (not like theres a big game this weekend)
    The board have moved on those that are there...they of course will not say nowt about Laudrup until he returns. This reminds me of how Mallorca got shot of him

    Got a headache have you, Valley?

    FREE, £2.5m, £2m, £2m, 500k, LOAN, £5.5m, LOAN, FREE, LOAN, £12m, FREE.

    Take Bony out of that lot and you have a total spend of about £12.5 million. Add in Shelvey and say less than £20 million in TWO seasons. Think that's backing the manager do you? In the Premier League? Some would call it pretty pathetic. If it wasn't for Laudrup's Spanish bargains, I shudder to think where we would be.

    By PREMIER LEAGUE standards that is quite pitiful even for one of the smallest clubs in there and we only got Bony because Huw was, metaphorically speaking, dragged kicking and screaming into the deal. I suspect that with no Bony, Laudrup would have left, followed smartly by Michu, Pozuelo, Chico, Canas and Amat. They only came to us in the first place because of MICHAEL LAUDRUP, not Huw "who???" Jenkins, or, as much as it pains me to say it, Swansea "where???" City. Jenkins had to authorise Bony's purchase to give Laudrup some ammunition to fight with or his own credibility would have been shot.

    Imagine if they did leave. Jenkins could appoint his pet, that well known relegation flirt Graeme Jones (he eventually succeeded) and I'm sure he would delight Huw with all the lower league "thirty-bob" bargains he could bring to the club. They would serve us well in the Championship, or lower, because that's where we'd be for the forseeable future.
