FOR THOSE INTERESTED IN THE POLITICS OF OUR CLUB

Fri Oct 21, 2011 4:59 pm

At last nights travel group meeting a member of the travel group (whilst we were on the subject of Alan Whiteley being new CEO) said - "Alan will be a busy man and the first matter he will probably have to deal with is a legal action brought by Langston because you don't have to be Einstein to work out that it is going to happen."

The comment did not surprise me to be honest but the lack of response from around the table certainly did.

There are some who attend the travel group who have been vocal in the past that the money is not payable until 2016, so I was surprised that the statement went unchallenged.

Whether or not legal action is imminent I do not know but I would not be surprised either as it has gone on for far too long and the whole Langston affair needs addressing.

Also has the Malaysians misled Sam then as I was under the impression that they had a good working relationship.

Yes you are right Adam no money has been paid off the Langston debt, interest is adding up and has Sam Hammam been misled then the answer would be categorically yes.

Sam and TG had a very friendly relationship and TG stayed at Sam's home for a few days in Lebanon and all the talk was that the debt would be settled but then a u-turn was made and a statement made on the club's official site http://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/page/New ... 48,00.html

This statement baffled most who have had any involvement through the Langston loan note negotiations and as Gethin Jenkins said in a previous travel group meeting 'the club are awaiting a response from Langston'.

The relationship is not good betweeen Sam and the Malaysians and has not been for many months.

I don't believe that is the case. I am told that players are lined up but the Carling Cup is the issue as the players are fringe players who are still in the competition.

You wouldn't invest further if you didn't know fully what legally is around the corner from a creditor.

Why do you think TG now sings " January " on the back of the Echo !

Yes the club is paying that back as part of the agreement, I meant that no money has been paid off that was due by Dec 31st 2010, no settlement has been reached.

Thanks god for that. I'm surprised that Aldershot have stayed in the cup this long, I'm sure they have a player or two that can step up a couple of leagues.

Remove the plonker Jenkins and install a lawyer to save on legal bills. Malaysian Chess move.

God moves in mysterious ways . He will do what is right at the right time- in his infate wisdom. You are still a shit stiring b*stard - with f*cking deep uncanny perception. What do you mean anyway ? What's happening ? The answer is with Kipling !

You think a solution might be reached by then?

I always thought that statement the club made, about Sam not returning, had a massive air of panic about it. As if they were trying to reassure 'the masses' who are (wrongly in my opinion) against Sams return

Carl I heard the room went silent when that statement was made and TLG and co were stunned and hah no answers ?

The Malaysians, Vincent Tan in particular, are far more wealthy than Sam. You don't get to be a billionaire without knowing a thing or two about dodgy dealing and how to play people. If they think they can get away without paying Langston anything, they'll try it.

If the Malaysians don't want to pay Langston now, you can bet they know what they are doing.

I do agree that the sooner this is sorted out, the better, as we will remove the threat of the return of Sam forever.

And good luck to them.

The club better hope they come up with something if this does go to court otherwise this will be the biggest test of how deep VT pockets are. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

It isn't damaging the club either?

Our club is seriously fucked if a forum post was able to damage it. Or indeed if a post helped it.
