HOW DO YOU THINK THEY WOULD REACT ?

Wouldnt care ive had my fill of his negative anti football

As well as giving very well deserved credit to Malky - and Moody - for recruiting so well (Caulker, Medel especially, Cornelius hopefully) don't we also have to give credit to Tan for giving them the budget., plus a bit more than he intended ?

I think the 2nd half of the season will be more likely for us to win the vital home games (and get more praise all round).

Of these final TEN home games to come, only TWO are against teams currently in the top half (Liverpool & Chelsea).

TV pundits have been saying how well Hull have been doing (only TWO points above us), but their home fixture set up has been totally opposite to ours as they have not played a SINGLE home hame yet against a side in the top half (Palace at home tomorrow).

That's why I think it would be so unfair to sack Malkey before the end of the season.

Come on let's show the world how well we can get behind our team.

Maybe it would depend on who Tan has as a replacement, if he was a really top Manager people would be less upset....

Hmmmmmmmmmmm I wonder if Tan does have a plan B ????????

Personally I would be gutted, as Malky has done so well in every aspect of Mangement and seems a perfect fit, can handle the local press and always says the right things, especially with the fans, but as you say Carl, many of our fans are not very forgiving, and some are already moaning about our tactics.....

There's nobody out there who would do a better job than Malky

How do you know?

He doesn't (as usual)

The sensible majority would be horrified and call for Tans head. Some would still try and justify what Tan had done.

Fella, I think you are correct; although on the 'flip' side there will also be those wishing Malky gone solely to further sharpen the knives already out for Tan

Seems no-one can win at the moment, which is sad for Cardiff City FC and its genuine fans who are being drowned out by lunatics on all sides of the equation

It's one thing to have a view on what is going on, but something completely different to be so hell bent on achieving something (in this case the removal of Tan) without a genuinely viable alternative that guarantees the future prosperity and viability of our beloved club

I keep repeating that WE ALL WANT THE BLUE BACK, but it's gone way beyond stupid with some people and I just hope that Malky isn't the first major casualty of some peoples ill-conceived idealism

Maybe it would depend on who Tan has as a replacement, if he was a really top Manager people would be less upset....

Name me a few examples... I can't think of one manager who would come here and do a better job

Ah, stealing my posts from previous debates, eh? That's original, fella

I can think of many answers; each of which you will have an opinion on to suit the fact that you made yet another stupid and ill-considered statement, so there is no point. However, if you had asked "Who do you think could advance us if Malky were to go?" I may just have given you a legitimate answer

You are a smart-arse, JonCCFC; but that doesn't make you intelligent; just a smart-arse!

Try thinking up some responses that are legitimately your own and we'll debate further

Stealing your posts? What are you going on about now?

Don't get offensive now, Chris, just because I've shown you up once again.

Smart-arse? That's very ironic coming from you.

I have been debating this for much of this afternoon with Annis.

The subject was 'how would the fans react, if we only took a point or two out of the next 4 games and Malky was sacked'.

I believe that if we lost to Man Utd and Arsenal and only got a point against both Stoke and Palace and Malky was sacked the fans would go mental.

I think Malky Mackay is in the hearts of the vast majority of City fans and even a run of 5 games without a win would not be enough of reason to get rid of him.

His two full seasons have had a measure of success about them and so far this season we are doing as well as many had hoped so I believe Malky has the support of the fans on his side even if we did hit a bad patch.

What do you think, should we go on a winless run of 4-5 games, how would the City fans react?

why arev you stirring crap for?

Can't see who we could get who would be better, I think Malky will go on to bigger and better things in the future, and will be regarded as one of Britain's top managers. His tactics may be a bit negative at the minute, but he is working with what he has right now, and his number one priority is avoiding the bottom three. Hopefully he will succeed, and build on that next season. Needs to get us established to attract bigger and better players, but may need a bit of time yet.

Managers do have a style though and it can be successful, George Graham was able to get Arsenal winning titles playing the same way, so I think Malky could make it at a bigger club, but it may be difficult if he had all attacking midfielders, and poor defensive midfielders. Like all Management jobs some will go into one place and do a fantastic job, get a move to a bigger or different club and fall on there arse.

As well as giving very well deserved credit to Malky - and Moody - for recruiting so well (Caulker, Medel especially, Cornelius hopefully) don't we also have to give credit to Tan for giving them the budget., plus a bit more than he intended ?

On this forum?

They think the money grows on a tree in the park on sloper road

This is true, Tan gets very little credit for anything good that he has done, and due to the rebrand probably never will ......

I think the 2nd half of the season will be more likely for us to win the vital home games (and get more praise all round).

Of these final TEN home games to come, only TWO are against teams currently in the top half (Liverpool & Chelsea).

TV pundits have been saying how well Hull have been doing (only TWO points above us), but their home fixture set up has been totally opposite to ours as they have not played a SINGLE home hame yet against a side in the top half (Palace at home tomorrow).

That's why I think it would be so unfair to sack Malkey before the end of the season.

Come on let's show the world how well we can get behind our team.

That is a really great point, good post

Wouldn't be surprised now if it happens and the new guy would get all the credit.............

im afraid thats how football works.got to say though ,in this case be difficult to get credit for malkys work unless a new manager parked the bus every game as well.

It is not stirring it is called debating something topical, you maybe someone who has his head so far buried in the sand that you can't hear the water splashing or like others you may understand that all is not well at the moment between manager and owner and we would like to discuss the implications of such a situation.

The sensible majority would be horrified and call for Tans head. Some would still try and justify what Tan had done.

Fella, I think you are correct; although on the 'flip' side there will also be those wishing Malky gone solely to further sharpen the knives already out for Tan

Seems no-one can win at the moment, which is sad for Cardiff City FC and its genuine fans who are being drowned out by lunatics on all sides of the equation

It's one thing to have a view on what is going on, but something completely different to be so hell bent on achieving something (in this case the removal of Tan) without a genuinely viable alternative that guarantees the future prosperity and viability of our beloved club

I keep repeating that WE ALL WANT THE BLUE BACK, but it's gone way beyond stupid with some people and I just hope that Malky isn't the first major casualty of some peoples ill-conceived idealism

Sven have you lost the plot or something? My reply was merely giving an opinion on how we would react. How you manage to turn this into that we want Malky out to get Tan out is more of a reflection of your skewed perspective than mine. You are getting stranger by the day.

Whatever happens in the next few games is irrelevant. .... Malky should stay till May whatever.

There is no one out there at present who would be capable of getting any more effort out of the players that Malky does at present.

I think we are being a little too loyal to the manager, perhaps our dislike of the way Tan has behaved has pushed us all into backing the manager rather than perhaps being a little more objective..

The truth is we have spent a lot of money on decent players and yet we look a very poor side, we look like a side devoid of attacking ideas and devoid of taking a game to the opposition... I think the 'just don't lose' mentality will be our downfall this season... what is frustrating is that we actually have decent attacking players who could hurt teams if the formation and team selection was different.

The win against the jacks was fantastic but in reality it wasn't a great performance.

Perhaps Malky will pull a decent winger and striker out of the bag in January but I think the fact that Cowie is in the team above Kimbo and Noone is actually embarrassing and indicative of the defensive mentality of the manager.

Truth is I think Malky isn't brave enough and perhaps needed another year in the Championship to hone in his management skills.

If the fans go mental if he gets sacked, and I don't think he will be, I think it will be more of a reflection of the frustration with the Tan-Empire rather than the cold hard facts that Malky is sending out one of the most boring teams ever to grace the premier league.

If I'm considered 'weird' in YOUR world, Mr Wilson, then it's a happy place to be

Can't be arsed to argue with you tonight. I have an important game to attend tomorrow and would rather put all my energy into supporting my team against the reigning Premier League Champions for the first time on equal terms...no matter what colour we come out to play in

In the meantime, can I suggest you get to bed early, so you can set your alarm to remind yourself (unlike last time remember ) that there is a actually a negative-publicity generating BU march on and they need your personal support

I say your personal support, of course, as they can rely on you to keep "on message" (even though neither you or they know what that 'message' is themselves) with your now regular chant of "Yeah, whatever he said..."

Perfect for you, my unintellectual friend, as it doesn't involve ANY thinking at all! Happy days!

Fair play, you know how to talk a lot of bullshit.

None of what you have there has any relevance to this thread and sure I could show you up again and make you look stupid, but I'll let you carry on putting all your energy into the Man United game tomorrow and I'll be sure to thank you if we win.

Like I say, Sven is getting stranger by the day. To take someones comment and invent a raft of scenarios that they did not imply just to satisfy his own skewed perspective is proof enough for me.

Carl I think that fans in general would be outraged but your question is how would they react? I think that the answer is we would react in a fragmented and disjointed way. Some fans would be distraught others would be glad and the rest would be apathetic.
If we couldn't present a united front as a result of the rebrand there is little hope that a backlash against Malkys dismissal would fare any better.

I think serious questions would then need to be asked.

You only have to look at our fans after a bad result.
