so who went under fella ???


Staff still lost their jobs. Thats a fact. That alone is a disgrace and came as a factor of your club going bust.


That had nothing to do with anyobody currently at the club though Barnett.

We were run by a bunch of morons, since we have had new owners over a decade ago we have been the model for every club in the land. Which is the point.

Its a bit like hating germans today because of world war 2 when they had nothing to do with it.

What staff lost what jobs?
Sorry what was the alternative? Club go under? Our spending back then compared to yours over the years was close to responsible? Clearly the answer was to prostitute the club around asia and try and get a foreign investor to rebrand the club. I as a fan would have much prefered that compared to buying out a mad foreign investor, agreeing a cva with our debtors, having one of the biggest and best supporters trust in the UK and having fans run and own the club. Clearly we took the wrong option and should have followed your perfect example. Such things as Risdales season ticket scams, high court orders and a rebrand are what we have lacked over the past 11 years.

Just watched it through fully... amazed at the amount of petty digs that the Swansea fans tried to get in & how upset they were at us getting into the premiership alongside them. :lol: Found their bitterness rather bizarre, seeing as they've been more successful than us recently.

Whinging about everything going to Cardiff and not Swansea etc... was quite funny!

Also, that guy who has season tickets to both clubs... seriously? :shock:

Mal Pope... what a pillock.

The biterness about what Cardiff gets was truly astonishing.

I honestly didnt realise they were that bitter.

I just thought it was messageboard banter on here but they truly are bitter about it.

Ruined the documentary banging on about the politics of the two citys IMO.

How many people made these comments? You and Angelis want Malky out, does that mean Cardiff fans in general do?

Im just wondering how many fans a documentary can interview in order for you to typecast a whole fanbase :lol:

What cardiff gets has nothing to do with the football clubs.

Cardiff city fc is not the capital of Wales :lol:

If the people who lived in Swansea truly felt they wanted "what cardiff have" whatever that is, then they would just move there. Its hardly crossing the Sahara is it. Its 45 mins away :lol:

You havent even seen the documentary yet think you know it all again :sleepy2:

Every Jack of the 10 or so on there except one on come across as bitter about the two citys, same kind of percentage as this forum.

Where did I claim to know what was on the documentary? I asked you a question on it didnt I?

So 9 people then. Thats all I needed to know. :lol:

As i said, if it bothered them that much then they would move. :thumbright:

(By the way ive never seen anyone on this forum say anything regarding cardiff getting things swansea doesnt, not that i even know what these mystical things are or what that has to do with the football clubs :lol: ).

Yes 9/10 - 90% of the Jacks interviewed had a chip on their shoulder about something that was f**k all to do with the football.

One of the nine was even a Swansea City director FFS :lol:

Thats 6 more Jacks than the 3 Danes who gave you your "information" that Andreus Cornelius wasnt any good :roll:

Re: Bluebirds and swans documentary tonight

Excellent so we are in agreeance then.

Its ridiculous some of the stuff you guys come out with it really is, you just see what you want to see. "He said Cardiff in a quieter tone than Swansea, that means he hates us - probably coz we get everything" :lol:

When i was telling you than Tan was bad news all those years ago, do you know the majority response was? "You are just jealous and would jump at the chance of this" :lol: insane.

As i said, if anyone wanted the "perks" of living in cardiff then they would move there, you are not confined to the city of the football team you support. Especially if the land of milk and honey is 40 mins away :lol:

Get real.

Im not referring to the documentary, neither were you after your first "review" and neither were the comments that followed.

You said you didnt realise the jacks were so bitter and then related it to the forum also.... or are you telling me you were referring to these specific 9 who I assume you didnt even know existed until you watched it?

Idiocy and its height and a complete lack of common sense. I wish people would think before they type although you are becoming prolific in that department :lol:

Fair enough. A lot of the people are the same hence why people who know a lot about technology like myself get employed and paid to make/do/explain these things.

Not possible with an iPad as it uses a iOS (mobile/tablet operating system) version of Safari (browser) and not a full fledged browser you'll find on a PC.

Loads of people are the same. Its one of the hardest parts of my type of work conveying things to people who don't understand the lingo in a manner they will understand. Its harder than the actual technology itself at times.

Re: Bluebirds and swans documentary tonight

Tue Oct 29, 2013 3:43 pm

We are, sorry were, discussing the documentary. A documentary you havent even seen yet choose to tell everyone what theyve seen. :lol: :roll:

I was commenting on what I saw and I viewed a broad spectrum of Swansea fans from SCFC directors, Musicians, Sports Writers, the Mayoress.etc. and all apart from one balanced fella (who rightly said we have more in common with each other than any other club in the league) had to get their little digs in about Cardiff being treated favourably as a City.

There was a couple of digs from Cardiff fans ie: Abartawe Town and Capital City but also a lot of generous comments about the Swans.

Strange how that sort of mirrored this place really wherby theres a high percentage of Swansea fans who post on here who bang on about the non football bias and cant give Cardiff any credit. Plenty of posters on here, me being one of them, have given Swansea plenty of credit.

Perhaps the only 15/20 Swansea fans who have chips on their shoulder about non footballing matters just so happen to have got interviewed by the BBC and the rest post on this forum.

Do you have any grasp of economics at all? Most Jacks could easily afford the prices in and around Cardiff and live here if they wanted. You can get a place in and around Cardiff for £400-600 easy and if they moved here and worked they'd also get slightly higher wages on average. Of course the difference wouldn't be like London's step up in salary but it still exists.

The reason loads of Jacks don't move to Cardiff or Cardiffians move to London or Brits as a whole don't move to another country is simply because they are set in their ways. A lot are also too lazy to move and have no ambition or desire to want to move for whatever reasons. There are loads of Cardiffians who will grow up in the same council house their parents did and never move.

wrong and maybe you can now recognise about what i was saying about you see what you want to see. I asked you a question regarding the documentary and never once referred to it other than that question. :thumbright:

its banter. People are allowed to move houses and cities, me being a case in point. We will also laugh at you regarding your rebrand, do you take this as us being bitter and also wanting a red jersey? Stop looking into things, the places are 40 mins apart, what one city has is easily accessible to the inhabitants of both.

There was a couple of digs from Cardiff fans ie: Abartawe Town and Capital City but also a lot of generous comments about the Swans.

there you go then, yet we see it as banter and you see it as some underlying feeling. You give us generous comments because we are doing extremely well, if the shoe was on the other foot it would be the other way around. There isnt a lot to shout about with your guys at the moment.

Strange how that sort of mirrored this place really wherby theres a high percentage of Swansea fans who post on here who bang on about the non football bias and cant give Cardiff any credit. Plenty of posters on here, me being one of them, have given Swansea plenty of credit.

. What kind of credit are you looking for? Your style of play? Philosophy? Finances? What do you feel you arent being complimented on that you should be? From where im standing it is a truly shameful period in your history, im not entirely sure what you require praise regarding specifically.

Perhaps the only 15/20 Swansea fans who have chips on their shoulder about non footballing matters just so happen to have got interviewed by the BBC and the rest post on this forum.

so you are alluding to the fact that all swansea fans have chips on their shoulder which brings us back full circle and justifies everything ive typed. Its nonsense and a really ill thought out notion you hold.

Where have i mentioned the documentary? Where have i mentioned what was said?

You said the Swansea fans (who were musicians etc) were bitter about the stuff cardiff has (again whatever that stuff is). We know the short distance between the two, we know that these famous fans probably have a bit of coin.... Common sense tells us that if they were that bothered to constitute actually being "bitter" then they would move there :lol:

Im not speaking about the documentary, im speaking on your idiotic constant inane generalisations. :thumbup:
