If we accept the supposition that VT's ultimate goal is to float CCFC on a stock market somewhere, then a rich stream of talented players from Eastern Europe would be a very good asset to list in any IPO :?:

After all the maturing and selling on of talented youth players is a very lucrative business as proved when this club sold Ramsey, Gunter, Earnshaw, Collins and Gabbidon (to name a few) to balance the books before the arrival of VT.

Vinnie is very astute businessman, but unfortunately for you he sees CCFC as just that a business and you are merely its customers.

And successful businesses are built on among other things franchise, rebranding, and obtaining a profitable supply chain.

Since he has already done the rebranding part, he is now looking into franchise and supply chain....

That's what you had better worry about...

Absolutely nothing wrong with a successful franchise.. :thumbup:

then that's fine as long as you are all happy then you have nothing to worry about :thumbup: ;)



We would have feeder clubs around Europe, while you are fed from Townhill Gypo Corries, yes really bad for us :laughing6: :wave:

What I don't understand is why the f**k does Gowerjack care about partnerships another club have formed with other clubs? Why do you care so much to comment on it Gowerjack?

He's obsessed. That's the only explanation for the amount of bullshit he posts on here.

Feader clubs for Cardiff City to be honest the first thing that come to my mind was the fans of these clubs must be gutted .

If that happened to us we would be gutted just goes to show football is all about business.

Tan likes the fact that one of those clubs has tradition but he has no respect for tradition .Fans will now see the good players always leave the club as it is now a feeder club so he just took away the fans ambitions to sucseed as a club in football .

Tan always seems to put his foot in it he stipped us of are tradition but likes theres only to make em a feeder club.

Football has changed and I dont like the goings on to be honest and other than a business Tan couldnt give a shit about any football club.

The thing is Tan is one of the most ruthless football chairmen in football not scared to go to the extreme and so far he is on paper a sucsess .As we all no there is a conciquence to all this sucsess but its up to you which one out ways the other as to which side of the fence you sit.The biggest consiquence to all of the changes Tan has made is divided fans .

Like us the fans of this feeder club must now be pissed off .Tan gives us the big time in footbal brilliant but then removes are identity so it all leaves you a bit messed up and as a result I dont like him. :ayatollah:

Not all cardiff city fans are pissed off and not all of the feeder clubs fans will be pissed off. The feeder clubs will no doubt get better under Tan like we have :thumbright:

Let's hope the Croatian fans have got some balls (unlike 90% of our fanbase), kidnap Tan, we go back to blue and he's never seen again. :ayatollah:

Possible in the far longer term Tony but , as I said in my response to you in another thread about the club`s insolvency and settling the debt with Langston , we are at least 5 years away from meeting the criteria for a full IPO float as it would require at least that level of continuous annual profits.

Also , if you read all of the article the Dubrovnik part of the potential investment (it is only a promise or suggestion at present , nothing concrete) relates to supporting the team followed by the Dubrovnik mayor at a time when VT is looking to finalise a major leisure development in the area. I wonder which local politician will be influential in giving it the go ahead?
I am not saying there is anything wrong in using local politicians to ease a business deal , just that it is not a deal that is really much to do with benefitting football there or here. Watch out for an announcement soon for a VT leisure investment linked to the area of the other football team as well.
