You came up against a team probably playing the best football in the country, and certainly having the best player in the country. You did way better that Spurs too. They spent £104m, were at home, conceded 5, and didn't even have a shot on target.
Chill Bobby - the "yellow card" bit was a joke - a hangover from Taff's best intentions to warn posters of impending doom. I've no intention of re-introducing them, and refuse to shove it up my arse unless Minxy is present to hold by hand (or something else for that matter..) Must admit I've been a bit concerned about jck over the months - seems too organised in his posts for me to be deeply involved with the club.
You were playing the mighty liverpool for god sake who have the best striker by a mile and is scoring for fun, What do you expect at anfield? you did well to contain them with just 3 goals because if they really turned it on they would have scored a lot more. Under the circumstances with everything going on then cardiff did well as i expected liverpool to walk away with it. Malky was the hero at anfield today and had the biggest cheer from everyone at the ground that will send shivers down tans spine that malky has the support from everyone in football.
Look I like Malky and think we are lucky to have a rich investor, it is hardly my fault they cannot get along but that does not hide the fact that we have won only 7 games in the last 31...that must be one of the worst records of any team in all leagues. If we finish the season in the current position of course that would be great but we have a better team than we put out in the first half as was shown in the second half...all I am asking from Malky is to play the best team and start trying to win games from the start. One thing is certain we know exactly what will happen if Tan gets fed up with the abuse so support Malky but stop attacking the person who is the real reason why we are in this position. Without Tan we would have gone into administration, Malky would not have a job we would not be in the premiership and we would be in blue heading for divison two with a 10 point deduction. There is still a chance Tan and Malky can meet and do what is really best for everyone. Tan wants us to attack more and at least create some shots in every game Malky wants to sit back and defend for long periods. I have never seen our team play so much in their own half in all my life. Today in the second half Malky saw what playing Kim Noone Frazier and Cornelious had on our game making the team selection easy for his next game, if he does this then at last we will have some sort of attack that is all i am asking for. jck
Not sure Malky deserves the sack just yet, especially on the back of aloss to a team that has now scored 17 goals in their last 4. However, I agree his tactics today should have been more attack minded as he was on a win-win. Only an eager optimist would have expected us to win today, most were expecting us to get hammered. So to go down all guns blazing may have had a positive effect, of course it could have been extremely counter productive...
Sparky...if you consider vulgar swearing abuse with no content better than an organised post containing facts then I do not need to post here at all. People need to go to work every day and upset the boss and see what happens. Malky has earned more than any of us will ever see in a lifetime so poor Malky is not quite correct. None of us will lose a penny from investing in the club but last reports are Tan has put in £140 in total. I am not against Malky he is sincere and is doing the best he can but his tactics and team selection and results I do have a problem with and should things get worse everyone else will have that problem. The magic of being in the premiership has been spoilt and I would like everyone to stop the arguing hope that in fact Malky and Tan sit down and resolve the situation. I fail to see how no one can see we are sitting back too deep in games and that is me talking about the football we are playing rather than shouting abuse at other posters who just happen not to agree with me. I am fine that everyone has a different opinion to me but not fine that they do not like anyone else having a different opinion to them without two lines of total crude abuse that seems to pass as acceptable on here. jck
Given time others will see you for what you are sunshine. Today I am calm and sober and willing to talk football with you. Where do you sit in the ground? In fact, I tell you what pm me and we don't have to spoil threads for others. Hopefully we can get a dialogue going. Your call.
Tan has not 'invested' -he has got loans--big difference--he is a ruthless business man--make no mistake , if any one is under an illusion that he has Cardiff City in his heart they are more naive than Ryan Gigg's brother.....
He's already converted some of his loans to equity and the rest are secured by him. He loans £50m to us as soft loans. abramovic does the same at Chelsea on a much larger scale. If you'd read more than a single thread on here you'd know this and that we know Tans here for the fame and the money, if he can make his investment strategy work. Please don't come on and lecture us on something you obviously know little about.
Genuine apology Glam must be this new fire and passion thing. Either that or Stella. You seem to have fooled jack200 as well though.
No worries. I think I should probably have used a different smiley... A for jack200, he's perfectly entitled to his opinion, of course, but I think he's being extremely naive. I do wonder whether Malky has spent every penny wisely but all managers make mistakes in the transfer market. He should also remember that Liverpool have been stuffing teams far better equipped for life in the premiership than Cardiff. I heard rumours last night from within bbc Wales about VT and if I ever doubted that he was a madman before, I was left in no doubt last night. Apparently, one of the 'tactics' he wants Malky to employ is (having seen the Mark Hudson goal) to shoot from our own half. Seriously. There are also rumours of bridge building, although the odds are still heavily stacked against Malky, I think. VT is simply too unpredictable. You never now what will happen with a lunatic like him.
I heard that too Glam and Malky having to witness dancing dragons on the pitch before games and rice being thrown on the pitch - all to bring good luck. Didn't bloody work v. Arsenal and Newcastle then!!! Phrases involving lifts not going to top floors and sandwiches short of picnics spring readily to mind.
