Vince Alm City need to get a further £10million of their wag

I hope vincent doesn't mind me doing it but it explains the current situation a bit more


Cardiff City need to get a further £10million of their wage bill

By Vince Alm

They needed to get a further 10 million at least off the wage bill they were hoping to move le fondre mecada etc along with one big name but no one wants them because they aren't very good.

We can not pay them up as that will still be accounted for in one lump sum in this year's accounts, so it appears that we have to sell another one of our assets maybe Marshall or Manga along with job cuts with staff and other cuts to avoid breaking FFP rules which would mean another transfer embargo and a fine.

Very sad state of affairs you can blame Malky and OGS for the mess with the players they brought in and the wages they agreed, they were the so called football experts

Fair enough,that explains alot cheers wez. But I'm afraid you give any manager an open cheque book from a billionaire and he's guna go crazy. Im not saying they spent well I'm saying they should never have been given the authority to dictate what wages they give or fees they pay. That fault falls high up at board level lets not run away from that fact and just blame the managers because that's just a cop out.
The harsh truth is the way this club had been run with complete lack of direction and experience is the reason were in this shit state, not a couple of managers.

Only last season or 2 have the likes of Brighton, Derby and Sheff Wed spent - and believe it or not both their turnover and wages were miles below ours until last season.

It will catch up on them, but also shows what shite value we were getting for our players

We must be the only team who managed to find a billionaire owner who wants to own a football club but doesn't want to really invest to make it a success cos it didn't go to plan the first time!

If it wasn't for him thinking he was a football guru we would never have had ole or spent the stupid money on contracts/fees

hi all been a while and things seems to have deteriorated somewhat !!
good post Wez, so it looks Marshall has been sacrificed because the other pair will not go, if this is the case and with Marshall being very popular I hope the rest of the squad let those pair know.
BTW how is everyone 8-)

I don't have an issue with blaming former manages but its a nonsense trying to pin any of this on Malky's. Most of his premiership acquisitions were moved on, only Cornelius at a significant loss. We took to the field at Fulham last week 6 of the starting line and 2 of the bench were Malky's team. He's been gone nearly 3 years and yet he's still providing the backbone of the team. Now we'll sell a Malky asset cause we cant even give away the players brought in under Tan's so called transfer committee.

The clubs hierarchy and their apologists will still blame Malky though.

He is 100% wrong to blame former managers. They would have/should have had a budget to adhere to.

It's whoever let us go beyond our means that is to blame.

I think it's fair to blame them, with the money Tan gave both to spend we should still be in the Prem.

It's their poor transfer dealings which have left us a mediocre Championship club with a lower Prem wage bill.

I do get where you coming from mate but II will have to agree to disagree with you on this as I feel that the two things are different.

Regardless of whether the signings were poor, somebody should have been controlling the spend and the wages that were being offered with a bigger picture being looked at, ie relegation, there should have been a balance and that ultimately is the responsibility of the owner or the CEO so for me the buck stops with them at the end of the day.

The Manager can only spend and pay wages upto what he is allowed to at the end of the day, if we are in a mess now because we overspent then it is whoever let them that is to blame.

Academy players and John played like 3 times under Malky. If they were good enough any manager would have given them senior contracts.

Yep, that was reflected in the figures put out yesterday :thumbup:

They surprised me (positively) tbh, but as always some tried to find the negatives depending on their view of Malky and his time here!

My own view remains that Malky messed it for for himself and had to go, but I've never doubted his managerial skills. He did what no one else had done for 50 years and that as no mean feat! :ayatollah:

Agree with that Sven. Malkay was a superb manager but did himself in. The mess that we are I now really can't be attributed to him. Don't forget that it was Dalman responsible for OGS appointment and who said that he felt like he was 'the cat who got the cream". The clubs overall direction and key decisions have been made by those with no expertise in "FC Business" and those factors are ultimately responsible for precisely where we now are.
