With Vincen Tan in total control of everything and with his football Knowledge & his £Millions etc

A question for everyone

Could we get stronger and rise in the Premier League?

or Crash down two Leagues like many other ex Premier Clubs have?

I predict more madness.....a lunatic is running the asylum

Time will tell. I do feel we would have gone down with Malky.

One thing you could always say was that Malkys players would run through walls for him.........they certainly havent the past few months.

you need more than heart and endeavour in the premier league, you need guile, quality and that bit of flair. We didnt have that and thats down to one man.

Lets hope we kick on and as a thankyou from Tan for backing his decision on Malky he reverts us back to our proper colours.

Annis, Tan's next moves will speak volumes about how he thinks and how he is being advised

Survival can be the only goal for this season, as it was originally (for the fans at least) under Malky

I can't see us dropping down the leagues (like Blackburn and Pompey) as he has too much to lose; both financially and credibility (and he isn't doing too well on the latter already)

This will be a pivotal period in the history of Cardiff City FC and I just hope he listens to footballing advice :ayatollah:

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:18 pm

Here we go........the thought of success is more valuable than traditions and honour and respect.
Tan has caused all this, not Malky.
He changed the kit, the badge, and shat on our chances of survival by acting like a lunatic.
I'm so angry about all this I really dont want to go tomorrow.....and I havent missed many games in the past 30 years.
Its a sad day. The bloke should have been given at least a season WITH proper backing. (not necessarily monetary either.....verbal would have been enough). How the feck could anyone work under those conditions????
The sooner Tan is gone the better....maybe we can get some pride in the club back. Its embarrassing at the moment.
:twisted:

Cos 65m in 2 seasons isnt proper backing???

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:21 pm

Tan has no feelings for us fans - complete and utter knob :o

Not to get to the Premier League and survive, no.Its peanuts. Anyway If you read my post I said not in a monetary way. I'm talking about the constant undermining, the telling him to pick players, going in the dressing room and upsetting the players and ultimately telling him to resign or be sacked. Really helpful. :(

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:23 pm

Vincent Tan should now come out & publicly return us to our rightful colour & badge, Blue & Bluebirds.

This would help heal the deep scars that currently fester at Cardiff City FC.

Our club NEEDS the fans 110% behind it now,,,not as things are currently.

United (CITY) we stand? Any thing less & we will fail, miserably imho!

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:24 pm

My personal opinion then I think you are fucked under Tan, hope I'm wrong but think he'll ruin your club and it doesn't matter how many millions he pumps in. He's a wrongon. :sad7:

Rebrand aside, Tan is no different to most other prem owners. Its just been played out in public.

The rebrand alone is enough for me. Its sickening.

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:28 pm

Any decent manager will want money to spend in January before he takes the job. 2-3 players to improve the first team and we should stay up. Keep adding quality in the summer and we could establish ourselves as a solid Prem side. With the stadium expanding aswel and a big fanbase we have the potential to be a big team.

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:32 pm

On average a change of manager is worth an extra 7 points

Yes he is,

He bought and rebranded the club,
flaunts himself in the media
HUGELY egotistical
No understanding of the game or the business he's in

He isn't like other owners at all

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:35 pm

Crash tan's circus will go on and I bet the new manager will get money to spend so maybe he will get away with this mess :malky:

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:37 pm

Tan has done the thing that desperately needed to be done and that was sack MM now he needs to find someone to buy the club as, in my opinion, that's the only way to bring the curtain down on this whole circus.


However well MM done during his time at Cardiff City without the issue of VT re-branding of the club his performance and more importantly the teams results this season would have seen calls for his head long before now. I will always remember him as a fans manager, someone who cared about the relationship between the club and it's fans but he took the £10m on offer from the re-brand without a second thought whilst giving it all "I understand how the fans feel about this" and as a result remained virtually undamaged by all the negativity.

Overall I believe we will come out of this stronger and almost certainly our new manager will be given funds to sign players in January. Hopefully that will be enough to secure our position in the PL for next season and we can again improve the squad during the summer.

If we end up being relegated let's hope our owner, whoever that is, has the stomach to continue to fund the squad and place us in a strong position to get promoted again.

I said rebrand aside.
i also said it has played out in media

most other owners go into players dressing rooms pre and post match. Its their club!

Even Peter Coates said he used to talk to Pulis about tactics and players. Ive got no issue with Tan doing that as long as he doesnt force it on the manager

Re: " Could we crash or get stronger ? "

Fri Dec 27, 2013 4:39 pm

The big question will the new manager be given a war chest?

A lot will depend on who is brought in, until then who knows the current squad will have to dig very deep.
