This is embarrassing

If there's one thing I hate being associated with, it's a bad loser.

 

Thread title is spot on.

 

Everything coming out of the club now is embarrassing. Desperation?

 

Why is it embarrassing? What if Moody did do it? Will you think it's OK and the club should say nothing?

The fact that he was given the wrong lineup and we still got stuffed is not the point other than to give the jacks and others a deserved good laugh.

Desperation? I doubt Palace will get a points deduction and save us.

 

I wonder who leaked the story, was it CCFC, Moody or the insider?
He got the wrong line up because we thought Zaha was playing for us...

 

This can't be right - even Ole doesn't know what team he's picking. How could Moody?

 

I just think it should have been handled in house, use it in the legal battle if it helps, just don't drag this very personal argument all over the press again.

 

Beggars the question who leak the story then eh?

 

Discussed earlier on Talksport. The leak likely to be a disgruntled player not being selected. Or even one who was. zahhhhaaaaa, sorry just sneezed.

According to Ray Parlour it happens all the time. Anyway was the team a surprise to us? The only issue was Noone on the bench but if he was already carrying a knock then that is about right. If it was no surprise to us then surely Palace would have prepared for a variety of selection options anyway. As far as I can see they selected the best 11 they had available.

Yet another example of City shouting their mouth off when a considered silence and possibly a diplomatic, sensitive approach to the powers that be would have been more appropriate.

 

Bluey - how do you know that "City shouted their mouth off"? It looks like a "quiet and diplomatic approach" was made.

The only reports I've seen is that City confirmed that Dalman had made an approach to Prem officials. They would have had to if someone else had leaked it, otherwise be branded as liars if denying it.

Another storm in a teacup because we are Cardiff City and Tan is a target.

 

This storm is self made Spark and is the very reason this ship is sinking fast.

Spot on Sparkey.

 

Can we assume you're looking forward to it Bob?

There is an agenda (and it's not a hidden one either) to undermine anything Cardiff City/Tan orientated.

Are you saying that Tan who is the obvious target for you and others is at fault over this, or is it again just another stick to beat him with?

What do you think all this has got to do with Tan, or do you know something the rest of us don't?

 

Got to be honest lads if i had a choice of playing pampers football with Tan or non league without him, I'd go non league every time, we really don't need these people in our game.

What makes me laugh even more is looking through NewsNow the Malice wasn't even the main source of this information.

 

Spark!
In all honesty I couldn't care less about the club while under the current owner any more. No one is taking responsibility for everything that is currently wrong with the club and the obvious divisions amongst fans and I suspect possibly even the dressing room. Is this being done deliberately? I sometimes wonder and what the end game will be. We seem to be leaderless from top to bottom.

 

Sparks - It could and should have been done without any publicity - unless wrong doing was proven and acted against. It is just another in a series of pieces of poor publicity which as we well know the media use to pour scorn on us.

 

You'd better wake up mate - they're here, and whilst the obscene dosh is splashed around by Sky and the like, they'll stay.

The club is a mess, but it's still my club. To say you couldn't care less about the club seems a bit strange for someone who's been watching for the length of time you have. I'm not preaching in support of any "pro-Tan brigade", just supporting the club through this period in our history like I have done for the past 40 years plus.

If Tan left tomorrow, it wouldn't be quick enough for me, but he's here. He funded us to the Prem and looks like he'll be around next season in the Champ - let's see what happens next season.

 

Spark!
I admire your steadfastness through this period, but for me the man has turned our club into a soap opera and I dread what a cliff hanger the final episode of the season will present. I personally believe we achieved Prem status in spite of Tan.

 

My eyes are wide open to what goes on in football if not in general focused on Premier League history or glory.

I give you a scenario...the recent outrage over Nike's decision to charge £90 for the England shirt (sorry I know that is not applicable to Wales) - I refuse to buy it - I have said to her indoors if anyone else buys it for me as a present, I will not wear it. We all have a choice and if every supporter made the same choice the marketing men would soon have to change their ways. However, some people have more money than sense. I'm going to get slightly political here...We constantly hear about people's plight in this country about benefits, the minimum wage, people on the bread line. So if anyone within that group can afford to spend £90 on a shirt then I would seriously have to ask questions about any financial plight. Yes, there are cheaper options but its not the point are we trying to price a certain class out of the game or are people not as poor has their plight may suggest. Off topic slightly but the principles have to be questioned because they are much and much the same on pampers league roundabout.

Obviously I accept in regards to Tan there is a media witch hunt, hence I try and evaluate the situation by supporter comments, the supporters at the front end of what happens and i see a clear divide. Or is it a case of haves and have not's, if the latter is true then so is my class issue and that should not exist in football, it should be available and affordable to all, and not used as the usual greedy marketing tool.

 

"Team news leaked.. They're crap!!"
