Well well Hilts lad, the travellng infestation has arrived ........................hook line nd sinker
speaking of £12m for wilfried bony, it would be a nice gesture of the club seeing as they are rolling in the money to settle off the debts they dodged paying back in the days before recorded history, to the likes of swansea nhs trust, ambulance service, st johns ambulance etc.... cant see it happening though unfortunately....
do you really expect people 2look back at what you said dude..........come on this aint the jacks board butty
Think u`ll find VD is that we are your capital and all the important buildings of power here so serfs like you and your little town down west must pay us taxes..............simples.........................;O)
Yawn! How about the billionaire owner pay the 8mill debt it owes now! Cardiff fans constantly beat their gums about how we dodged our debt how many years ago, yet Cardiff are most probably the dodgiest club in history! Hooligan owner, numerous court cases over debt........... Also You can have Croatia as a feeder club we will keep to having La Liga as our feeder clubs giving us players like michu, Chico, Pablo etc.....
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha absolutely pointless you never hear London based clubs dribble absolute crap like that! I worked in Cardiff for a bit fitting kitchens for social housing and trust me when I say Cardiff was much worse than Swansea much worse! 2pm and most of the estate was out the front with kids who should be in school dunking cider fighting! Literally one of the worst places I have ever been to!
But we pay our debt unlike your morally corrupt club that enters administration to reneg on debt. Don't start trying to justify it, your club purchased services it knew it couldn't pay.
But you haven't ,whether you love or loath sam the scam you still owe him money I just wonder which of the following recent incidents alone give you any sense of smugness March 2008: Langston take the club to court over lack of any repayments on the loan. The court finds for the club, but the pressure is now on to actually repay some money. It has cost the club £500,000 to fight the case. July 2008: The club announces losses for 2006/07 of almost £5m (6) May 2009: Losses for 2007/08 are £1.5m (7). Attendances were down by 8%. Ridsdale took a pay cut as the income paid to WH Sport – his consultancy firm – fell from just over £1m in the previous year to £325,000. June 2009: Ridsdale rejects claims that WH Sport are going bust. The company had “merely stopped trading because he is now on the payroll at Cardiff City and the outstanding monies [nearly £374,000 to the Inland Revenue and £36,000 to other creditors]are in the process of being paid” (8). August 2009: Ridsdale vows to “pay more than £370,000 he personally owes to the tax authorities by the end of this year” (9). In 2006/07 WH Sports was paid £1,034,490 for Ridsdale’s services to the club. That included a bonus of £500,000, paid to him for saving the club from liquidation. September 2009: A club sponsorship deal for £250,000 is signed with 777ball.com (10). Less than aweek later 777ball.com’s logo is withdrawn from the club’s shirts as the sponsor does not have authorisation to advertise in Europe (11). October 2009: Ridsdale announces a five-year freeze on season ticket prices for 10,000 people (12). November 2009: The club is given a 70-day adjournment of a winding-up petition brought by HMRC (13). The club website insists “Today’s court order had the effect of withdrawing the threat of a winding-up order rather than imposing it… Cardiff City Football Club have every confidence in their future financial stability and fully expect to be in a position to make further investment in its playing squad in the January transfer window” (14). December 2009: The winding-up petition is formally dismissed as a repayment schedule has been agreed with HMRC (15). According to Ridsdale, “this puts any doubts that anybody had about the future of the club behind us” (16). January 2010: The News of the World reports that the club has failed to make the first payment to HMRC as agreed, and faces a new winding-up petition (17). The club’s response is that “We are happy that Cardiff City Football Club’s relationships with its creditors including HMRC are such that we will not have any financial issues that will affect the ability of the club to continue to trade as normal in all aspects of its business.” (18). A week later it is revealed that a second winding-up petition had been issued before Christmas (19). Ridsdale now insists “We have every confidence that all monies owing to HMRC will have been repaid by the end of January” (20). £3m raised from the sale of future season tickets will not now be spent on bolstering the squad as previously indicated; it will used to reduce debts. Those who bought the season tickets are not amused. February 2010: With only £1m of the £2.7m tax bill paid, a further adjournment is granted, this time for 28 days (21). The season ticket debacle is raised in the Welsh Assembly (22). It emerges that the club’s stadium subsidiary faces a winding-up petition over a £700,000 debt in connection with catering equipment (23). March 2010: The Football Association of Wales complain that Cardiff City have not paid them money for a friendly international played at the club’s stadium in November. A club spokesman is “surprised” (24). Ridsdale explains to WalesOnline “If you are asking whether we still owe money to the FAW from the Scotland match then yes, we do. But that is only because we have not done the reconciliation [on the gate receipts]” (25). The club launches another drive to sell season tickets (26). The club faces HMRC in court again and are given a 56-day adjournment. HMRC’s barrister describes Cardiff City as “plainly insolvent” (27).
Boney, VT and Sam are negotiating the arrangment and the monies due changed because we have been promoted to the premiership. but Sam will not be out of pocket, he will get his money back with an appropriate amount of interest. Nothing gives me "smugness" about the way Sam and the riddler did business or ran the club but debts have been paid in full and will continue to be paid. Unlike what Swansea did in the past. I admire what your board has done but it was done on the back of hard working locals who have not seen their money. The bigger creditors got their money but those who could least afford it did not get their money. So believe your own press but your rise from the ashes was morally corrupt.
sorry debt free with loads of cash thats why we can pay £12 mill for a top striker that chelsea wanted..its tough at the top..
Seriously? Your bad news ends in 2010. The fact HMRC and co haven't had us in court since then tells you something. They've been paid in full! As Taff said we pay our debts. Loads of bad news about our 'evil' new owner in there too. Oh no because since he's come in things have just got better and better. I know a it doesn't suit you lot that he might be able to sort our finances with out ripping off all our creditors (owning your ground is a real issue if you want to steal other peoples money) but VT and his massive personal loans to the club are doing the job. If he did put us to the wall he'd lose more than anyone so where on earth would the logic be in that for a very astute business man? He's said already he'll capitalise those loans and he's done everything else he said so why should we doubt him?
Shining on the World Since 1912 , but spouting our history before April 2010. You could not make it up, could you.
Shining on the World Since 1912 but begging buckets twice before that. You could not make it up, could you.
