"RIDSDALE MADE A VALID POINT"

Dave has been there for all of the six years, so when you make a change you have to decide whether it's going to take you forward or backwards, and obviously only time will tell," he said.

"I think the most difficult job in football is to get the right manager.

"I think stability is critical. Cardiff City have had stability and if Dave were to be changed now I think that the current board have got to be absolutely sure in their mind that whoever comes in will take them further forward rather than push them backwards."


What do you think of that?
Do you agree or disagree?

Hes wrong. We can't get any worse than we have now. I honestly think if DJ was here next season we'd be in a relegation battle anyway so if a new manager comes in and we're facing a relegation battle it'll be no different. Our squad would be bare next season and I doubt the malaysians would have faith in Jones' signings anyway after the likes of JLS, JET and Parkin.

We need a new manager who the Malaysians will back and give money too to strengthen.

some time you have to step backwards to see which way is best to go forward, Norwich is a prime example of this.
If it means we finish 12/15 next season to take stock and plan to go forward ,then so be it.
The worst thing we can do now is think, ok new manager next season up we go !

Of course it could have got worse, we could be at the other end of the table alike Sheffield Utd.

Of course it can get worse. Let's see where we finish the in league in the next 5 or 6 seasons and then tell me if wouldn't get any worse if we got rid of Dave Jones

The thing is, even next season under Jones we'd be in a relegation battle. NQAT!

If we achieve a mid table place with the current actual players we have on our books then we've done okay. Push for the playoffs and we've done extremely well. I dont expect a manager to waltz in and get us up at one attempt. Within 3 years is reasonable.
