“ EROL BULUT TODAY UPDATES CARDIFF CITY FANS “


Thursday 4th April 2024


EROL BULUT SAYS VINCENT TAN REFUSES TO TALK ABOUT NEXT SEASON.
Full story below:


INJURY UPDATE:

Rubin Colwill now out 2-3 games

Etete could be out injured now for the rest of this season.

O’Dowda has a new injury.



Erol Bulut:

O’Dowda has only played in 9 out of 42 League and Cup games and is now out injured again.


"O'Dowda is also injured, so he will not be with us this weekend. It is a hamstring from the last game. He felt a little bit of pain on his hamstring. I think it's also a bit of protection from the medical staff.

"None of us want him to get an injury again, because he was out for a long time, so we have to protect him."

Callum O’Dowda felt pain in his hamstring following the Coventry game and is also expected to be sidelined for Saturday’s fixture.





Erol Bulut goes on to the Hull City game after a fine away win at Coventry City, but still not know his future??

Buluts team play a Hull team who have lost their last 3 games, but Bulut has stated they had money and were able to buy quality players and strengthen in January when he could not really spend.



Erol Bulut:

"When you see the whole season, there were too many ups and downs with the performances.

"When we could have consistency in performance, maybe we could have a few points more."




EROL BULUT:

“WE MUST KNOW WHATS GOING ON”

"Last week we spoke about it, after Coventry, I also had these questions. For plans for the new season, you should have clearness. For the players it's very important. Also for the manager it's important, for the club and its future it's important.“



"It's normal that the manager is involved in transfer talks. But we cannot talk about that because we don't have clearness."



EROL BULUT:

“We still can’t make decisions on pre season, we can’t give certainty to players or my family”.

Erol Bulut:

"We haven't had fights or anything like that!" he laughed. "We have had many talks. I can also not say it is a perfect relationship, as Vincent Tan won’t talk about the future.”

"It's normal that the manager is involved in transfer talks. But we cannot talk about that because we don't have clearness."

Bulut has previously spoken about dealing largely with chairman Mehmet Dalman while at the club, however owner Vincent Tan is known to be a hands-on boss and likes communication with his managers.

Asked whether he had spoken with Tan recently, Bulut Said: "We have had some calls on the phone. We generally speak about the games. I think you [press] know Vincent better than me, because you have been here longer than me, you know his character.”

About Saturday's game v Hull City, Bulut said:

"It will be a tough game, because Hull have a great team and they invested well at the start of the season and in January they spent a lot of money.”

“Hull have quality players, took quality players in, but that doesn't mean their team goes well.”

“Right now Hull have a bit of a problem, last week they lost and then they lost to Leeds.”

"Saturday will be a tough game but we will do out best."

Erol Bulut:

Cardiff City will not give up on their faint Championship play-off hopes, says manager Erol Bulut.

Monday's 2-1 win at Coventry means the Bluebirds are eight points adrift of the top six with only six games left.


Cardiff were in more realistic contention for the play-offs earlier this season and, although their chances are now rather remote, Bulut is not ruling anything out.


“It will be really difficult but we will not give up," he told BBC Radio Wales.
“If we had beaten Sunderland [Cardiff lost 2-0 at home on Friday], maybe I would speak a bit differently.
“We will fight for the rest of the season, for the last six games. Anything can happen. My guys will give everything.”

“Back in February, Dalman said Bulut was "relaxed" about his contract situation. Now, two months on, it's probably safe to say that situation has shifted somewhat.“

“Maybe something is going on I don’t know about?”

Erol Bulut:

"Maybe [Dalman] had it in the past that other managers were pushing (for a contract). I'm not pushing for something," Bulut added. "Because if someone doesn't want me here, for what do I have to push?

"I will just make my job in the best way, to give everything that I have. I am not perfect, I have also mistakes in my game plans and transfers. But from the negative things, we can learn a lot of things for the future."


Bulut had hinted after defeat by Sunderland on Good Friday that the question mark hanging over his head might be feeding into the team's performances on the pitch.

Hull City’s manager is Liam Rosenior, who was appointed in November 2022.

Rosenior operated as a right-back in his playing days, featuring for the likes of Fulham, Reading, Hull City and Brighton & Hove Albion.

A highlight of his career came in 2013/14 campaign, as the Tigers reached the FA Cup Final and were narrowly defeated by Arsenal, with Aaron Ramsey scoring the winning goal.

Following his retirement, the 39-year-old began as coaching with Brighton’s U23 side.

In July 2019, Rosenior became a specialist first team coach at Derby County, prior to being named assistant manager of the club in January 2021.

Since his appointment at Hull City, the Tigers have won 24 of their 71 matches, with a win percentage of 33.8%.

Monol Siopis: “It’s important / the Owner must answer.”


"He is the guy who brought me to this club and the country. It's important (he stays), but it's something the owner must answer," Siopis said.

"But if you ask me my opinion, we must know if he is staying or not. Because they must make plans for next year. We have just one month (left). I want him to stay, of course.

"This is a question you must ask the owner, but we must know. We will see

Tan out! Our club has been stagnating for too long now.

Unless it’s true that there will be new owners/significant investment from an outside source then it makes no sense that nothing has been communicated to Bulut about next season.

It’s obvious he’s selling up
God I hope he is

Ned most takeover or investment comes with confidentiality clauses in them until parties want news put out.... there is absolutely no reason for club not to tell bulut he's not wanted at end season... so must assume he's been hold what's happening and he needs to be patient otherwise surely he would say he's leaving as other clubs will want him that's for sure.

Erol Bulut:


“If you see what Hull invested in January and the summer, they are only two points ahead of us. We are happy with that.”

“I think we have got the maximum this season out of our players and we did a good job altogether.”

“If we invest next season we can go higher.”

“I am happy with our progress this season compared to where the club was.”
