I am with Tan

Mon Dec 16, 2013 10:26 pm

Lets be honest he has done his part, we were one of the biggest spenders last summer and vastly outspend the teams around is. Malky should have done better with what he got last summer which was a massive warchest. Spoilt bastards on here always want more, well guess what if I was Tan id tell Malky to f**k off n all.

Tan did his part in the summer by giving Malky more money than he knew what to do with and we signed some absolute dross with it.

Whether you agree or disagree the media is not the place for either man to conduct business

Im with you on this one 1948 sir. Hes been given more than enough to build a team to keep us in the premier league this season. If malky is now saying we need another 3 players in january then i think that says quite a bit about his judgment in the transfer market last summer. I can see where tan is coming from on this one.

Completely agree, said in the other thread the amount of fans that just want us to spend and spend but constantly complain about the debt gets on my nerves. Its easy to say when its not your money. £50 million is a ridiculous amount of money for a promoted side to spend specially when £15 million of that was on add-ons.

Malky has his faults and this is one of them.

No denying he has done a great job and he is a good manager with great potential while having a lot to learn but it is sad how people will slate people like Bluebird since 1948 along with Polo and Craig for having their opinion.

The worst part is they have even acknowledged Malky for the good things and like him as a manager despite the faults.

But to some supporters Malky has done nothing at all wrong since coming here.

I think Malky knew he wasn't getting anything which is why he come out and said he wanted 3 players and put the light on the owner and board, although all Malky has said is he wants 3 more players and would discuss with board and owner I don't see what is wrong with that?

Here here, I'm amazed at how fans are not seeing through the personal feud here and realising that we are 3 games until mid-season and 3 points from being "on track" for safety.....

Malky has spent 7th highest budget in league this season FACT
Until Saturday, Malky had won 1 game in 9 FACT
Malky had purchased Cornelius, Brayford, Velikonja, Harris, Lappin & Moore for a combined fee of £13mil FACT
Malky has not given any of those mentioned a starting spot for Cardiff City FACT

Let's imagine the ridiculous were to happen, and Malky does get boot (like Adkins from Southampton last season) and we actually employ a manager who manages to get the best out of the potential that's been purchased by Malky - I'm pretty certain we all would not really care in s years time because the ONLY thing that should occupy the minds of us Cardiff fans is what's best for OUR club & in all honesty, Malkys comments, tactics, team selections & drab yet predictable interviews would certainly not be missed by me.

Ps. A David Marshall wonder save and Gary Medel goal line clearance saved us from being 1 point off relegation Saturday ANOTHER FACT :-)

i know malky may have spent more than most managers this season but i don't think think that tells the full story. we add 30mil of players to a championship team whereas others are spending money on better squads.

Re: I am with Tan

We need a new manager......fact.

Because Tan holds the power.....fact

tan will always be the villain to many fans eyes because of the rebrand and I bet in my opinion that if we was still blue and no rebrand at all happened the majority of fans knocking tan would of backed him over this

could well be true. but he's being silly with Malky. ok it's his money and understand that. but when we had a promising start tan started getting involved in nonsense, we were all.enjoying the season.

Question must be asked about Cornelius.
If he is the future and the price tag will rise in their opinion.
Then where was the purchase for the present?

Re: I am with Tan

Mon Dec 16, 2013 11:18 pm

If we were still blue this forum would have been calling for Malky's head after the Norwich game.

Too many people are blinded by the red.

So did every other side that has got promoted from the championship but they didnt spend £50 million.

A bit of balance is required here.

MM came here to No Squad, a half empty dressing room and
Fans expectations at their highest ever.

He deivered the goods (albiet in a style that is not my cup of tea)
But he got us here.

We are now small fish in a big pond.

I look at WBA, Fulham and Sunderland and imagine their fans must be
Feeling low.
Palace are enjoying every minute. And so should we.

MM has lots of pros amongst his cons. I would have loved to have seen
Eti, Corner and Mason getting games.
One of my biggest issues with MM was macclesfield where he completely stripped
The first team squad out.
A little run, maybe bedding in 4 or 5 players was not to be.
Now (like always) MM only trusts 12 or 13 players.

I'm confused whther we have politics or bad management here.

All I can say is - MM is a City legend.

Not sure what Ronnie Rebrand is?????

thing is we fans demanded money to be giving to tan but we would complain about the debt aswell, now the debt is in the process of being turned into equity we wont have that option no more but tan is fucked with fans whatever he does sadly, yes he shouldn't of got involved and left the football to malky but has owner or whatever he is he will have an opinion on way we play etc aswell but he does need to learn to but out but when malky spends money on players for future and not for right now he has a right to be pissed off that his money went towards that, hopefully both sides will see sense and malky will get stronger from this

Re: I am with Tan

Mon Dec 16, 2013 11:25 pm

Malky coming out and saying he wanted 3 players was very uncharacteristic.


Things obviously going on behind the scenes.

Im with tan on this one two, malky is lucky to still have a job

im not willing to judge a player who got injured and isn't match fit yet. neither should anyone else. i genuinely think he'll turn out just fine for us. if he started every game, people would be asking why a proven scorer like odemwingie isn't playing.

im not asking YOU to judge........Malky made the judgement by saying he is for the future.

Some fans don't give two hoots for Malky like someone else said its all about the rebrand.. Brag malky up into the best premier manager so when he gets the boot they can try and make it a bigger outcry :roll:
I like malky and think he's ok at his job but he's no super manager..

Here here, I am not Malkys biggest fan but I don't think he should get the sack but the majority on here only back him because they want to shit stir and make it a massive thing against Tan.

Also to the point about us needing to spend more, yeah we do need to spend more NOW but that is because we squandered so much money on absolute rubbish whereas other teams invested more wisely. Also if Tan had come out and said "yeah here ya go, spend as much as you want" teams would bump up the price because they know we would pay it out.

Nice to see one sensible debate on here :lol:
Agree with most things on here, if someone spent GBP50m of my money i would be pissed off
HOWEVER
its not like Malky and Moody did the buying and writing cheques off their own bat, someone somewhere was aware of all of these deals unless we had brown paper bags with wads of cash in them
what does need to happen is either Malky goes or Dalman steps in and sorts this shit out once and for all as the impact on players is going to be massive and negative over this critical period
As we have said since i was a kid on the Grange End "Never a dull moment down the City"

Re: I am with Tan

Tue Dec 17, 2013 12:00 pm

Sounds like its down to the add-ons.

Maybe when Lim was signing off transfers he wsnt aware of these factors and Tan feels Moody and Mackay should have been upfront.

Spoilt bastards on here always want more...

Want more than beating Manchester City at home.
Want more than beating Swansea.
Want more than drawing with Manchester United.
Want more than being placed 15th and 4 points above the relegation zone.

I think you're pointing at the wrong people for being spoilt mate.

So are you also with Tan about the manner in which way this whole situation is going about?

It stinks, the lot of it.
