    Yes EIO, emergency loan means its only 28 days and they don't have to commit to a longer loan if the player is just for cover while the injured player is recuperating

    Morning all <ok>

    Not wanting to put a negative spin on Bellusci signing permanently, but it can't have been hard to be head and shoulders above the other defenders in training can it?! <laugh>


    Match thread is on its way, they might have to become Friday morning things rather than Thursdays if I keep having mental Thursdays like yesterday

    Afternoon all..

    If we get another player in on loan before the window closes then that will answer the question on Bellusci, I don't believe it is for any other reason than we want another loan.

    I see Hockaday is blaming the midweek performance on a virus that affected half the team, I did smile at one tweet asking what was wrong with the other half the team, did the ball have a virus and they were scared to go near it.

    I didn't hear any excuses after the match so why now?

    Maybe bellusci is thought of as captain material and you really don't want a loan player as skipper just a thought.

    well ristac, excuses will always come because Hock is never wrong, so the virus thing means his tactics were spot on and his motivation skills perfect, erm, at half time????

    I have to say I was very surprised when I read the LMA response to the alleged texts

    Cardiff and Tan are pathetic ... yes, we will learn the truth behind this story, but it is clearly a revenge attack on MM for winning his compensation claim against them ... so question is why did Cardiff not dismiss MM for this at the time? Because they went looking for a reason to crush him, and now they feel they have something ... also, if they handed this to the LMA months ago, why not go public then? Why wait until the day MM is in the frame for the Palace job? Yes, if MM is found guilty fine him heavily and if necessary ban him, I have no problem with that ... what I do have a problem with is the way Cardiff have gone about doing this, and the timing of them going public months after they had the "evidence" has clearly been designed to destroy MM and hurt Palace, and this is no better than MM's alleged behaviour ... also, the threatening nature of their call for Bevan to resign is there to put pressure on the LMA to take action against MM, a bully boy tactic if there ever was one ... LMA will always support their union members until such time as they are found guilty, and yes their wording was poor, but it wasn't offensive and has been twisted a bit ... throw the book at MM if he's guilty, I'll join the queue, but stop this vindictive behaviour, it lowers Cardiff's and football's colours

    Lads, I've been on grampa duty at Thomas The Tank Engine World for the last few days, minus specs, so unable to read up on what's going on. I haven't heard the full Malky McKay story, but from what I can gather, we're talking about private texts from one person to another. Is this right? If so, I can't understand why there's a hullabaloo, nor why Baardiff managed to get their hands on this info.

    Anyone help me out?

    Cardiff have been insisting that a lot of underhand dealings were taking place on MM's watch, and Moody was doing deals and getting bungs, and Cardiff want to get some of their money back from Moody. Solicitors and investigation team gained access to Moodies house and confiscated records and computers. The texts were only a part of what they turned up, but Cardiff had already given the text stuff to the FA months ago. Funny how as soon as it comes out and the investigators have access to his home that he resigns from Palace (Same day) That knocks MM out of being given the Palace job too and makes you wonder if Tony Pulis was taking bungs with Moody last season hence him leaving????

    Don't think you can sign players from abroad after the window shuts on loan,as didn't Cellino have a load lined up in jan but was unable to do it after the window shut.

    Neil Cardiff sent in forensic accountants in to Moody's house with a warrant they took his computers and lap top in a quest to see if they have been bunged up to £20m that's the price they feel they overpaid for players .This story has a long way to run believe me

    Thanks, chaps.

    I'm no legal expert, but I cannot understand why these text have come to the fore. I should imagine that a court order was required for the access, and it would have stipulated why access was granted, and what could be done with whatever they uncovered. As far as I can see, none of these texts were germane to the alleged financial skulduggery, and should have remained private & confidential, not exposed for the pure & simple reason of damaging someone's personal standing or professional career. I cannot understand what justification they had to pass on this information, and IMO, they should be liable to proceedings themselves for this act.

    It seems the big bug bear with Tan is they paid millions for players who are now turning out to be **** and got them relegated ... because of this Cardiff are saying bung ... this fcuking Tan is an idiot, he signed the cheques and should have been more careful with his money but he seems to have been blinded by the Prem pot of gold, like so many before him ... as for changing his club's shirts from blue to red
