We are all cost cutting
Don't renew your ST let the board pick up the slack.
They will alter all your seats in order to fill 2 stands saving on food outlets etc.
It will get worse

In all honestly, I completely understand this decision. Tan wants to make this club self sustainable and by paying ridiculous wages that won't happen. Rebuilding has started and it's going to take a while but it's not the end of the world. It's horrible for fans to go through but it's purely a business decision to help the long term future of our club!

If he wants the club sustainable why O why didn't he put someone in charge of employing a Man that knew what he was doing when he employed a Manager in the first place.
Mistake after Mistake and now we got a Manager that don't have a clue, and is forced into selling off our best players to make up for there mistakes.
I reckon thats why he give us our colours back ,cos he knew he was going to do this a while back. He knew we wouldn't stand for colours gone, and our best players gone so thats why he give us our colours back.

Said before anyone with a bit of value will be sold. Tan trying to cut his losses, the ambition for next season will be no more than championship survival with a mixture of cheap buys and free transfers.
Mon Mar 23, 2015 5:42 pm
Who said he wants a sustainable club.I just think he wants as much of his cash back as he can get so then he can toss us away.
Mon Mar 23, 2015 6:02 pm
We bought him with money loaned to us from Tan, now we'll sell him, pay back Tan a with a little bit more and thats a bad thing ?
Tan was loaning us money to pay for fabio's & Jones's wages....
We didn't accept the rebrand, that was the perverse payment Tan wanted from the fans, now it must end.
The quicker we are sustainable the quicker he can sell us

If it's on twitter it must be true!!!!!!!

There is not many Championship clubs could afford not to sell a player especially a centreback for 7 mill
Mon Mar 23, 2015 6:20 pm
Im a huge Manga fan but can't see us getting 7m for him, would be delighted if we did.
More likely around the 4m mark. I'd bet he is a high earner as well.

I'd like them to stay but we've got to balance the books.
It'd be interesting to see what sort of fee we'd get for Fabio as we got him on a free.
He's one I can see staying as he has been out injured a lot so other sides may not have seen enough of him to cough up

Exactly.
Football is a business and this would be a good business decision.
No player is above being sold .

I have absolutely no problem with us selling players to steadying the ship. I don't think I will see Premiership football in Cardiff in my lifetime again.

I think we will be back in the prem sooner rather than later.

Shame we ain't in a position to build around him,makes the sale of Hudson look worse and worse tho he'd have been a rock for us this season

But some clueless Norwegian decided to sell him.

Lots of clubs have done same we are not 1st won't be last, take couple years to stabilise but will be better for it! Do shouldn't be complaining as most wanted debt gone reduced cannot think of any other way to do it?
Mon Mar 23, 2015 7:04 pm
One of the reasons I'm not looking forward to renewing tbh,
There main priority is to go back up but plan on selling our best players in manga and Fabio!

Totally agree, don't want to see them go but never been one to be that bothered when players leave. You just welcome in the next and you get on with it. Financially better off

We got more chance of ending up in league one.

Crazy money if true

Turner is just as good as manga think if we get 7 million and reinvestment it in a striker and a couple of midfielder s it would be good business
Mon Mar 23, 2015 8:08 pm
I agree that the club should get their finances in order but are the cuts so drastic that we have no chance of getting anywhere near the top 6.
I would have preferred if the club had told fans honestly up from that all the best players are being off loaded rather than send a season ticket renewal letter out saying " OUR DESIRE TO RETURN TO THE TOP FLIGHT REMAINS" It is quite clear from the January window what the club are doing.
Is that in 2025? 2030? It certainly won't be in the near future if you sell ALL of your best players. Surely you need a happy balance and need to keep some quality.

The problem is the club may not re invest. The club paid 750k for Doyle other than a small fee for Ravell most of the others were on a free.

Lose Manga and we will lose the backbone of our team, he is real class.

I agree but I don't share the view that if you sell then your chances of getting in the prem are gone. Burnley, Bournemouth, Blackpool none of them spent big but they had a decent team. It does diminish your chances no doubt, but always life after they go.
If Manga remains he must be our captain next year

Until Manga returned from the African World Cup our defence was awful.
Yes you can get promoted without a squad full of class players

but you do need a few to go with the battlers. Sell Manga and once again it will be a step backwards in my opinion.
