Aussie Jerk, back in a different form. John, sorry mate the names you mentioned are all living in a past, filled with 4th division football played in front of 3k crowds, thing is i do not see a Terry Matthews banging our door down at the moment and that says it all really. Therfore without the backing of Tan, we wouldnt even survive in the Championship and struggle in the 3rd division. We as you know are in the 1st division, times are good, and have been for 10 years. However i have had my fill of Bury away on a tuesday night, or Lincoln on a freezing cold January saturday. If you Dad and his mates can see pleasure in that, then fine. But they would probably be better off paying to get whipped in a den of enquity down Tiger Bay
Hi Ian No need to be nasty. Templeofblue: Shouldn't that be Templeofred? Just sayin'. Oh and no, I'm not an Australian. I actually have some sympathy for JH's position and I never thought I'd say that. You're stuck with an untouchable, mad owner who can basically do what he likes without fear. Remember the Venkys? Exactly the same. This type of owner doesn't understand football, Cardiff or its fans. There are those here talking about breaches of trust re Moody (where is the evidence for that?) but even then why appoint a 23 year old unknown painter with no experience? Or are you defending that too? This guy is clearly not satisfied with the superb start you've made in the Prem (even though I still hope you'll go down) and his demands are way too unrealistic. I can't see your excellent Manager staying and who can blame him?
don't think they will go down KJ, agree their owner seems to be a nutter especially after the recent appointment. if I was malky I would be out of there in a flash however he may be on the contract to end all contracts, who knows?
Why should it be red? I hate the change of colour so why would I have a user name supporting it? Oh that's right, you think it is the supporters who have chosen the new owner Since you used the name Aussie before I thought you were an Aussie. Glad you are supporting your local team then
Hi Knackered Aussie Jerk. Nice to see you still talking a load of old tosh !! Is that nice chap RAF Jack still about or is he constantly on jankers, wish i knew where he was based. I would have put him on a charge !! Now this is it, from what i can see, not many of our chaps gob off constantly on your board, so why do you see it so childishly necessary to come over here and try to spoil our debates. You have to agree you are a bunch of spoilsports, but more importantly you are all just a set of self righteous Knobs.
Bit early to call being as he hasn't played. Didn't realise your players were injury proof? He's had one injury, if he hasn't played much in 12 months you can declare him a crock and I'll join you. Bony, however, has played and we can declare him **** up till now.
Wrong. Bony wil come good, sooner than you think. Look at the opposition we've faced so far in the League. He's already got quite a few in Europe. Oh that's right you're not in Europe. His assists have also been very important, so he is contributing. Quite a few goals this season have been down to him. I trust the legend that is Laudrup before any of the people who post here or on our board for that matter. Sorry if that offends you. Ian: I always know I've won the debate when the insults start to fly, so thanks for that. Nowhere have I 'spoiled' any debate here. It seems to me that the Cardiff fans are divided on the Tan issue. Is he a great benefactor who has got the best interests of the club at heart, or is he a mad loon? I know that your position is that you are happy for this person to do whatever he likes providing he keeps paying the bills, but many of your fellow fans disagree. Throwing in my opinion agreeing with them doesn't 'spoil' such a debate does it? If our clubs' positions were reversed (god forbid) are you seriously suggesting our board wouldn't have Redbird visitors? Come off it. Fact is, you're all hyper-sensitive over the Jacks getting involved because you all realise deep down that you're saddled with this nutjob who is riding roughshod over your club and its fans. If your Manager had any integrity (and I believe he does) he'd walk. He'd be better off elsewhere.
Actually Knackered not hypersensitive but bemused by how condescending Jacks are considering their past. Anyway lets look at Bony. If he doesn't make it in the league, and he has not shown that he can, who really cares about scoring against weak European opposition. As for MM walking if he has integrity, you have rocks in your head. I remember Huw and ML haven't disagreements at the start of the season. You lot were all so scared that ML would leave because Huw was not giving him the money he wanted...so ML should have walked? Of course you will tell me how that is different and you have some inside knowledge that no-one else has...keep up the good work.
From what I recall in the summer, there was talk amongst your board and the papers that Laudrup was going to walk and there was huge trouble ahead. Nothing at all materialised about that and it just showed that you can't believe **** you read in the papers. Now that's exactly what your lot are doing. Also AFAIK there weren't (m)any CCFC posters on your board at the time giving it large with "I told you so". You, like us, know absolutely nothing about what's going on behind closed doors.
Knackered Jack Things dont change, why even come on our board. If nobody wants you here, why be bothered to comment at all, same goes for all of your so called supporters. Most of which only support thier own ego's. In other words. Please go away, you add nothing to any discussion.
"Hyper-sensitive" what a clown! The swans board where anyone say out of turn they get hounded out and if any Cardiff fan dare comment they are immediately slagged off!
It doesnt matter how good a player and manager ML undeniably was/is EVERYONE gets it wrong sometimes. The greatest manager in football history signed plenty of duds for plenty of money whilst owning the PL for 20 odd years. The fact he's scoring in Europe should probably worry you more, as he's 'up to speed'. If he was in Holland still that would be the level, but the PL is far in front of the Europa League in terms of pace and individual quality of defenders. Do you think you'll be in Europe next year? Bony may come good, right now in the PL against proper opponents he is ****. PS: I ignored the rest of your post as it's obviously just wumming.
To be fair, I think the Cardiff fans are handling it well. Ignoring the obvious problem that is Tan the Crackpot Malaysian Man helps hold back the embaressment so it is a good tactic and buys time to think of excuses when the season goes all pear shaped.
Time will tell, we were going to be worse than QPR and Derby before a ball was kicked according to the crystal ball of FACT you jacks seem to possess.
Stevo - you have no right to expect a balanced opinion about a Swansea player from a Swansea supporter if it differs from yours. I agree Taff - the hyper-sensitive jibe about Cardiff posters from Aussie is ****ing hilarious. Everyone can contribute to any thread on any board represented on this forum, but what on Earth is the point over there? They are so far up themselves that the sight of a dissenting internal voice, let alone a Cardiff poster, sends them into a frenzy. Aussie comes over here in an attempt to post some seemingly plausible stuff, but it's always tainted with the hatred he openly declares he has for all things Cardifff City. Dispute his motives and he gets all defensive. His opinions about our owner and where we're going with him on board are a wishlist based on his preffered outcome. He could well be proved right in the future, and that would prove orgasmic for the poor soul, but kneeling by his bed every night praying for it may not be enough. Pay no attention to him - he may be annoying but in reality he knows **** all about the situation.
I wouldn't have said worse than Derby, that is going to the extreme. But yes, many expected to see Cardiff already struggling lower down in the league.
And we may still struggle. It's the difference in the way that so few of us come to preach on your board whereas we are presented by any number of hard facts which are actually just usually groundless often deluded opinions. I'd take 17th place now, anything better is a massive bonus. I was the misrable bastard that would have taken 2nd when we were 10pts clear in March in the Championship though.....
