I have just had a city director on the phone and I have been told that Dave Jones has got the backing of the board.

That's that then forget about playing prem football next season. What a load of bollocks, have they seen the pattern over recent seasons.

i think this should of been cleared up before the posting that dave jones would be sacked if we lost at millwall.
only at Cardiff City can this happen

can we now just concentrate on supporting the team fully over the next 8 games, we are 3pts behind 2nd place..
I do think we can do it

I am happy about this, you can't put all the blame on DJ, the players have to do the job on the pitch

Whether we agree or not, a line has now been drawn and as difficult as it maybe for some of us ( defo for me) we need to put our feelings towards DJ to one side for the good of the club and leave all the DJ out chat until our season has come to its conclusion - nothing productive will come from speculating or calling for his head between now and the end of the season as the board appear to have signalled their stance.

On the positive side we showed a bit of heart today in the second half in a difficult game/ environment although in such an open game we should be murdering teams like Millwall but it aint happening at the moment.

Thanks for the info Carl...got to get right behind the boys now and re-visit some of the justified debates re DJ and the future of the club beyond the the end of the season - if required.

Heres to a nervy end to the season!!! :ayatollah:

Not surprised, believe that the scum will go up and we'll have another season in the championship, and wouldn't be surprised if the board would prefer we stayed in a division that we are competing in rather than be in one that we'll struggle in.

So it was bollocks then

Re: Director speaks

Sat Mar 19, 2011 9:53 pm

I'm fuming with this! Another season down the toilet!!! I have zero faith in us going up now! RIP PROMOTION!!! absolute joke!! What happens if we don't be derby??? Surely he would have to go then!! How can we happily watch another season fall apart and not do anything? The way we are going, and the way reading and burnley ate looking , we won't even make the play offs

Well not really we didn't loose. Or was it Carl's sick sense of humour thinking i will get all those anti Dave Jones fans all excited then rip the Carpet out from underneath them :lol: :lol:

I believe that they were waiting to see the performance today and you have to say it was quite good
Away
Intimidating Den
Against a team that just stuffed QPR and Burnley

No convidence in dave jones.under him we are going nowhere imo

Re: Director speaks

Sat Mar 19, 2011 9:56 pm

Sorry lads, I have tried to support DJ even though he should have gone in December but it has become impossible to give him my backing. I will give the team and the club my backing but not DJ as he has had his chances but keeps falling from March onwards. We will not go up with him at the helm, and to say we'll discuss this at the end of the season when we are still in this league is too late!

Agreed Chief :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Dj supporters - if we lose against derby will you still back him? I'll be finding it very hard to keep my cool if we lose to them at this stage! DJ has more than 9 lives, he's incredibly lucky he has a naive board as he is getting away with murder!

Hardly promotion form is it?

Makes you wonder how bad it has to be before he loses the "backing of the board".
