CLUB STATEMENT: SENIOR MANAGEMENT CHANGES AT CARDIFF CITY


Monday 9th June 2014

Cardiff City Football Club can confirm that chief executive Simon Lim has stepped down from his role on Monday 9 June 2014.

Executive Chairman Mehmet Dalman, who will assume chief executive responsibilities at this time said, “On behalf of the board of directors and all at Cardiff City I would like to place on record my thanks and appreciation to Simon for his valued contribution over the last eighteen months.

“Following his appointment in 2012 Simon worked closely with the board, leading the management team and staff during a period of transformation at the club. He leaves with our sincere best wishes and gratitude.”

On tendering his resignation Simon said, “It’s with great pride that I held the office at Cardiff City, but feel now is the right time to move on, allowing the club time to make adjustments over the summer before another important season.

“I'm honoured to have represented the club during our historic promotion winning year and very much hope to once again see Cardiff City in the Premier League at the earliest opportunity. I am indebted to Tan Sri Vincent Tan and the board for giving me the opportunity and would like to thank the hard working and dedicated staff at the club for supporting me during my time in South Wales. I wish them and all associated with the club every future success.”

The club can also confirm the appointment of Ken Choo, who joins the club in the role of general manager.

A Bachelor of Commerce and a member of the Australian CPA, Ken is also a Chartered Accountant with the Malaysian Institute of Accountants and an Associate Member of the Tax Institute of Malaysia.

Having served as a Senior Auditor for PricewaterhouseCoopers in Malaysia, Ken has extensive management experience in the corporate business sector, including his most recent position as General Manager at Berjaya Hotels and Resorts in London.

On the appointment Mehmet said, “We are pleased to welcome Ken to Cardiff City in the role of general manager, adding a wealth of knowledge and experience as the club moves forward. Ken will be responsible for shaping the business, making us more efficient and getting the best out of our talented staff.

“Ken will also join the newly formed Executive Committee, alongside Ole Gunnar Solskjær, Tan Sri Vincent Tan’s representative and myself. The committee will openly discuss and agree all major decisions in the best

Welcome Mr Choo

Not like Tan surrounds himself, with glad handing, nonsensical, yes men is it...

About time as well. Slimy tw*t

Not like Tan surrounds himself, with glad handing, nonsensical, yes men is it...

Please elaborate. Would be nice to know something about this new member of staff and what he is about.

Looks like a very bright financial man joins the board today ,a great cv

Exactly what I was thinking.

So when Carl and Nukes said a Mr Choo was joining they both got laughed at.

Also it seems being a CEO under Tan means your job is def not safe in the last 2 years Gethin Jenkins,Allan Whitley,Simon Lim and now a new executive committee, Sorry but Ive just got to laugh, its just the seems the circus goes on and on under this present regime.
No doubt the Tan lovers will say its all for the good of Cardiff City,which is what they say whatever Tan does.



I agree the new staff look good on paper and have a good CV, if you pay enough money you will get the right people, but then it only works if Tan bothers to listen to them, thats the big question?

Remember when people like yourself accepted the rebrand because of the promise of a stable, debt free club? I'm yet to see one only these things happen.

It's ok to spend millions on a new stand though of course.

Wez, its only a couple of weeks ago you finally admitted you were wrong about Tan.

I didn't say I was wrong but I said tan needs to sort the debt issues out, word is that the new board member will be doing this also what isn't going to go down well with this board that tan ain't going anywhere and will become more involved

Jesus annis you need to get a grip your hatred of tan is driving you to distraction. As Wez said the new guy has a cracking cv and we both know simon lim wasent worth a cup of cold piss and you were blaming him for signing off malkys piss poor signings.
You moan about the debt and here is a man who is obviously going to make sure that last summers shenanigans don't happen again.
I see nothing but good in lim going from the club.

Steve and because of Tan, youve given up supporting Cardiff City, True or not?

I agree Lim was pathetic, but this was last year when we all saw that staring us in the face.

Ive just said, his CV is good, but will Tan listen and u even say Steve, Tan listens to no one?

Why is it a battle annis?Because you got a different opinion to wez.There will be no unity in our fan base while some groups thinks they are topdogs.This is why you don't see me adding an opinion very often on the politics of the club

Wez, hate Cardiff City your pathetic, uve worshipped Tan and the Red, that to me is a person who hates Cardiff City.

Ask Steve, Why he has stopped supporting Cardiff City?

The answer is, Vincent Tan.

Hard to comment as I have no idea how it will turn out.

Battling regarding the stripping of our Identity and the debt never being changed to debt free as stated 2 years ago.
To me both these matter beyond.

Not a battle on my side just seem s like some people just need something to moan about ,getting g rid of lim was a good thing but some still have a dig at the club ,will these people ever be happy WHO EVER is the owner

This guy Choo is not a replacement for Lim as I see this but given his experience in "Corporate Business Sector" surely he is the replacement for Julian Jenkins who was Commercial Director.


Dalman is taking over the CEO duties for now, whatever that means, and given the past few years there has been a revolving door for whoever sat in the CEO chair. One question about Lim going is I suppose "did he jump or was he pushed" because we all know it was his signature of the transfer deals going through this time last year.


This Ken Choo is nothing more than a replacement for Julian Jenkins and replacing people who leave a business is just part and parcel of company life. And this guy does seem to have the type of CV which will mean he will be a success and that's good news. Surely.
