The club could put a bid in for Messi or Ronaldo, doesn't mean it is realistic.

Well it's realistic when the player quotes "That at 5pm he was coming out of the team because Cardiff had come in for him,and he was happy to become a Cardiff player!"

The club could put in a bid for any player they like including the two you mentioned - but that's just silly as they isn't a cat in hells chance. But we are refering to a player he who WAS on his way to Cardiff. Which he has now confirmed. So obviously a deal of £4m was agreed what ever the circumstances on payment was, It was a done deal, until Bolton Gazumped us.

Think People should just stop doubting VT, TG and MM for the time being and just get behind the club.

Adam, there was £2million ready to be transferred to Watford as a downpayment on the £3million that was bid and accepted, that is realistic.

Also Craig Noone was another serious bid also, Noone rang his mate Chris Barker on transfer deadline asking him about Cardiff as he was packing a case to make his way down, it was 'done deal' as far as Noone was concerned.

Maybe if we went after players who were less attractive to other clubs we would get the players we are bidding for but I doubt many of us would be happy if that was the case.

I like the comment from Sordell "When a club of Bolton's stature comes in for you, you don't need any time to think". Hope you enjoy Championship football for the next few years Marvin....maybe next time a club comes in for you find the time to think!
