    £118,000,000 is a pretty big percentage of his £800,000,000 total worth. Especially when most of the total worth is actually locked in assets.

    I think a lot of us said that that when Tan arrived it was clear he wasn't an 'investor' but a speculator. The likes of that windbag Sparkey shouted us down but we were right.

    He doesn't strike me as anyone who gets out of bed unless there's a profit involved so writing off some debt was clearly a move towards the bigger picture of eventualy cashing out. And he will. What's bad news for Cardiff is that when he does god only knows where that will leave them. They are in an almost identical position to previous teams that have tried to buy Prem survival.

    I'm thinking Pompey, and look where they are now.

    What's sickening is their Chief Executive praising their £35M worth of acquisitions under Malky - yet wasn't that why he was sacked? <doh>
