They've had 3 days to try and spin it. They still can't think of a decent enough lie. The bottom line is they want Malky out


Why would they want Malky out? He delivered premiership football. It doesn't make sense. :ayatollah:

In the lower leagues we were not run that well, yes we played in Blue but not run well

Breaking news out of CCS:

Apparently, this 'holiday' has been forced on Simon Lim...

Whisper is some guy was supposed to paint his house but inexplicably let him down at the last minute!

I don't think Moody has done anything wrong, Malky wouldn't be 'fuming' if he hadn't done anything to deserve it. The boy just adds to it.

VT appears to be on a bit of a power trip here, not much we can do but cross our fingers and hope he sees sense, and chant for Malky 90 mins every match!

Unfortunately that was never the choice, it was VT or possibly bankruptcy. As the difference outcome for Rangers and Pompey show, it could go either way and take a long time to even get to that point.

Who knows what goes on in his mind. What I'm told though is the last month Tan and Lim have been meddling in all team affairs, even suggesting what systems Malky should adopt, but more importantly Tans dictator like attitude has been witnessed first hand outside of the boardroom for the first time. They've made a huge mistake and as far as our current management are concerned, the damage is done.

Malkys position is untenable

Re: ' Simon Lim goes on a two week holiday!! '

Thu Oct 10, 2013 1:55 pm

His position may be untenable but I think he is too proud and passionate to walk out. If he goes then it's by getting sacked by Tan. Malky knows he will have the support of almost every newspaper and media outlet as well as 99.9% of the fans.

Hopefully Tan sees sense and calms down. But something tells me there is no chance of that happening. He is an utter C**t whether he saved us from extintion or not

Canton jack, when you say you don't give a f**k what league we are in, you cant of been around when we were in the lower leagues, there were good days but a lot see the lower leagues through tinted glasses as it was more about causing trouble that watching a game of football, been there and done it give me the Premiership any day


Totally agree with Canton Jack. Apart from our promotion seasons,the lower leagues were absolute garbage! Watching players like Cameron Toshack and Jimmy Gardner make you realise how great watching this current team is. Hope we never go back there. If we do though, I'll be there :ayatollah:

If anyones actually had the displeasure of meeting Simon Lim, you wouldn't be surprised.

The guy was brought in as chief ass licker on a much lower salary than a chief executive should be. But the money that has been saved on this has been lost in the numerous mistakes he has made.

The club has been a mess for over a year but the shit is now hitting the fan. Everyone inside the club hates Tan, he is generally just a horrible man but all his merry men around him like Lim, Julian Jenkins and Michael Isaccs are around to tell him how wonderful he is.

Tan doesn't give a f**k what the fans think, just an egotistical bell end who generally believes what he's doing is right

Not a clue. There are hundreds of our of work Uzbekistanian plasterers and dry-liners waiting on developments

:laughing6: :laughing6: .tony,iv always been anti rebrand but there again i dont follow cardiff so it may have appeared more black and white to me than to some ccfc fans.it,s easier to see when not directly involved sometimes.i have always read yr posts regarding the rebrand and to me you come across as someone who wanted a well run ship more than anything else.so when you are up in arms something in my eyes is seriously wrong.i would think what has hit the press is only the tip of the ice berg.tan-get your kit and get out of ccfc.put it up for sale and stop wrecking years of history for your own selfish ego trip.malky dont deserve this crap.neither do the fans.im afraid before a foreign owner from that neck of the woods is allowed to buy a british club again he should be put on a cultural awareness course.what is classed as decent in kuala lumpa is classed as pants in the uk.the blokes got no manners and no class whatsoever.oh and no idea how to run a football club.

I was kind of hoping that there would be sense to Moody being put on gardening leave, that a statement would be released to reassure and convince the fans that the right option had been taken - bugger!

as mad as it sounds coz i like Malky, i really hope he walks, keep his pride and let us all vent our spleen on the twats running our club, sure we might implode and go down but at least we can hold our heads high. The rebrand was bad enough, but to undermine the manager, ask him to quit and replace his trusted aid with a jumped up public school kid takes the piss bigtime.
Do it malky, you are a proud man, we understand. :malky:

As soon as the likes of Borley have been paid I wouldn't care if we went into admin, took the hit, dropped a league or two and then worked our way back up ourselves. Of course it will be difficult but so is the present time when it should be the most enjoyable period in our history. Instead its being clouded by the idiocy of a loon and his entourage.

Unfortunately, the time to do this has probably already passed. Once Tan owns 98% of the equity, and he already represents in excess of £100m of the debt, he is the only person that can "agree" to go into admin. And why would he do that? He would be wiped out.

It is either sell, or bust. I don't see a third way.

Re: ' Simon Lim goes on a two week holiday!! '

What would be a realistic price Tan would sell for........? £120 million......?

Re: ' Simon Lim goes on a two week holiday!! '

Thu Oct 10, 2013 5:19 pm

saying tan told malky he should resign is 100% fact and then say you cant say anything for legal reasons, you need to becarefull because that's still a big allegation to say, even if you heard information you believe to be true.
