' OFFICIAL CARDIFF CITY STATEMENT RELEASED '

Hmmm not 100% on this one, I feel a bit happier that he is writing the interest off and will probably turn the debt to equity, but I am still a bit worried about what happened last week that we definately know about, and also what happened that we haven't been told about?

Malky will also be feeling the pressure more than ever now which can't be good.....

why the f@ck do you care so much about what happened to moody,the club haven't got to explain every coming and going regarding staff.These things happen in football,get over it.

Moody was one of Malky's right hand men and helped Malky with some fantastic signings, personally I don't see him leaving as great news. It's more what else went on that concerns me, there have been some postings concerning Malkys treatment and comments from his agent, I just hope it doesn't affect Malky too much on the field. As I said some positives also though [/quote]
most of the posts were from so called people itk that had no facts just the normal i got it off a source from the club the media got on to it and made a mountain out of a mole hill than back tracked [/quote]











The only reason the press have no story now Wez is because moody has been paid off with a confidentiality clause attached.
There is no doubt that there is a face saving initiative being run by the club to cover tans backside.
With regards to the board meeting steve has been holding the safety certificate from the start of the season and has been instrumental in the stadium expansion from day one so they were just endorsing what has been going on for weeks.
Which ever way you dress it up between the press and malkys agent it was obvious to them that the removal of moody was an attempt to push Malky out of the club but the fact that moody was found to be blameless complicated things.
Did you notice in the statement that there was no further mention of the painter and his role at the club in looking for players.
I believe over the next few months him and lim will disappear quietly from the club with little fuss so this weeks public embarrassment of our club in the national press will fade from people's memories.
It's a shame the Malaysian culture is all about not losing face because I'm sure people would have felt a lot better about tan if he had been able to come out and hold his hands up over the mis handling of the moody affair

:lol: so at the time, you didn't feel lied to by Ridsdale?

I'll ask again... You've NEVER disagreed with the club?! About anything?

No I didnt feel lied to. What he said they were spending the money on had no bearing on me purchasing the season ticket early. I did that purely for the price freeze. By attending during the Ridsdale days, in some way I did endorse his regime as I was handing over my money to him. Just as you are withTan during this regime.

Still not answered my question though....

I think you'll find I did. Not the answer you wanted though.

So Wez gets all his information from the club and its all honest and 100% is it wez, they never lie, make mistakes, decive the fans and go back on their word?
Mate i am concernd about Moody Malky's man, you might not be your starting to sound like Tans main spokesman and i bet your sat there in your red top with your trousers nearly to your neck

You are the ultimate keyboard warrior. I bet you'd shit yourself if you met any of the people you constantly mock on here in real life.

Some pretty diverse posts on this thread tonight, which highlights the negatives of the divisions caused by so much mis-information and mischief by some who simply haven't really got a clue and yet are happy to believe any negative piece of information that is drip-fed to them from certain sources...

Once again, whilst 'something' has obviously gone on at our beloved club over the last few days/weeks, I honestly believe we (the fans of Cardiff City FC) have been 'played' by the media once again

Only my personal opinion, but I think this is avery positive statement regarding the club and its future management (which thankfully appears to include Malky ) and should be taken on face value until proven otherwise. Indeed, it would appear that the debt-to-equity promise may well be realised; we just have to be patient whilst the mechanisms of (a) obtaining the remaining shares, and (b) sorting out the legalities, are put into place...and that may take a little patience from us

In the meantime, I am sure our usual 'sources' such a Annis, Carl, City Gent et al, will get to the FACTUAL bottom of all this in good time and I am sure we will be updated as and when factual news is available

In the meantime, it appears the storm is over (for now at least) and we have a more pressing problem ahead in the next few days, i.e. Jose Mourhino and his Chelski team!

THE FOOTBALL IS BACK; C'MON YOU BLUEBIRDS!!

No, you didn't. Unless you are talking about Ridsdale... In which case, you're being a hypocrite.

Sorry Sven, but nobody on this forum is ITK.

The club have realised that Tan has messed up & are trying to save face with the fans.

Thankfully, I'm not that deluded to fall for it.

theres no doubt that it been a mess but its seems like lim is to blame he fell out with moody for what ever reason which none of us really know ? but the resuffle takes moody job out of it, the so called painter i have no doubt was never going to search for players or be permanent but will be given a pen pushers roll some where in the club and tbh i bet hes a lot more brighter than most of us on here ,i doubt hes a mug going to uni with sams son

Where have I said that it's fact? just giving my opinion... No " UPDATE " here.

Stick to hypocrisy Craig.

Wez it is quite obvious from your posts that you are a Tan lover. I would remind yoU that they do sell over the counter medication to combat this terrible disease.

he doing a great job once he converts his loans to equity then i will love him more ,cardiff city debt free ,bigger stadium all paid for ,our own new training ground all paid for and hopefully still in the premiership next season as cardiff city fans we havnt had it so good and to think 3-4 years a go we could of gone bust

tan not anyone else ? not lim ? sorry but this is down to lim ,as city gent and other ITK have already said

Tan is the one that brought in a painter to replace one of Malky's trusted team.

Barry, it appears Tan has certainly 'messed up' somewhere along the line (likely with communication) I think there are one or two who have at least 'some' knowledge of what goes on but are 'careful' with how they use it theses days. However, on the whole I agree that the club keep things very tight these days and that this will likely increase as the 'old school' are bought out and replaced/removed

IMHO that would be a shame in many ways, as whether we like to admit or not, we ALL like to get the low-down' on inside dealings at the club!

Steve Davies (above) alludes to certain creditable likely happenings and it is difficult not to agree with him

do you honestly think the painter was ever going to sign players and go out scouting for malkly ,i bet the painter is a lot brighter than most of us on here annis do you think that the statement about the club vt writting off debt etc is good news ?

Pretty key question.
Do either of you know the answer?

Why would Tan need an excuse if he really wanted things to change? He could surely just do a Southampton

Chuckles and not a qualified painter either
On a serious not, Tan is standing by his decision and keeping the painter as Malky's right hand man, but Malky totally in charge of him Watch this space over the coming weeks

tan not anyone else ? not lim ? sorry but this is down to lim ,as city gent and other ITK have already said

Tan is the one that brought in a painter to replace one of Malky's trusted team.

and removed him today with a different policy with malky gaining more power

brilliant statement 5.8 written off future loans interest free and so malky and the chairman will be sorting out transfers ,like any other club

Wez what colour top you wearing now oh sorry i might Tan what colour top you wearing now and dont pull your trousers ovr your head

Could you show me a club statement where it says he's been removed (i.e. Had his job taken away from him) ? I know how much you like to rely on them...

I believe tan took poor advice about Malky and was particularly let down by lim. I do believe that moody was the pawn to remove Malky until the truth came out regarding moody.
At the end of the day in time you will find the overspend was untrue and regardless moody could not of authorised the deals and payments without lims say so

I've seen a lot of see you next tuesdays in business and it looks like we have one here.
Can't see him staying for long in the circumstances.
Perhaps Mr Tan has learned a lesson and he will be a little less cavalier and trust Malky a little more in future.In any event Malky has some insurance by his board meeting slot.He must also have his direct chats.
The fact Tan didn't do a Southampton perhaps indicates he was torn as it was my belief that Malky's transfer dealings and general approach had established a level of trust.He is obviously very nervous about his investment and who could blame him.
When all is said and done Malky's job is dependent on our PL prospects this season and he must know it.
He'll want to get some serious points on the board by January.
