What if ???????

Trollope does a great job and we are in the playoffs next season ? Trollope is a very well respected coach and has had huge success with Wales,it's not the appointment I would of wanted but I will support him as cardiff city boss people moaning on here that they won't go next season etc etc need to get a f*cking grip

It could happen.

On the other hand,what if he's absolute dogshite and he has to be dismissed with the club in the relegation zone like he was at Bristol Rovers and we've then thrown away another season and another opportunity to appoint a decent manager.

I'm not really understanding this "huge success" with Wales either? Was he the manager? Or are we saying that the players were listening to him rather than Coleman? Do we know that he was doing things differently with Wales than he was with Cardiff last season?

I'm only really interested in Cardiff to be honest and as far as I can tell he was very much part of the problem last season so I don't see how it'll be any different this season.

Good luck to him - I think he's going to need it.

So being Wales assistant isn't a huge success ?

Not in my eyes.

If we're absolutely honest without Bale and Ramsey it's highly unlikely that Wales would have qualified for anything.

How much influence does an "assistant" have anyway? Are we saying he had lots of influence with Wales but no influence with Cardiff last season? If he was a "success" with Wales then you have to say he was a "failure" with Cardiff City.

Now, if he can persuade Bale or Ramsey to join Cardiff that would be another matter!

Good reasoning davids and you've done wez over with this debate.

He would of had influence on Wales and cardiff hence why we played much better when he joined the club we were inconsistent last season there were matches where we played so brilliant football and not the hoof ball of before he joined, with him in charge and slade not holding him back more of his younger fresh ideas could be made to the players and on the pitch

Wez not even logged on today and not even going to bother trawling through all the nonesense. Does it excite me? No, is it inspiring? No, do I think its the correct appointment? No. But he's our man now, it has benefits as well and from speaking to players previously he's a top coach, rarely do they make the step up. Without doubt much better options but names count for nothing, it's what is done on the pitch. Dissapointed but good luck Trollope

What If,,,,,,Wales win the Euros & City get promoted under PT?

P.S. My holidays this Summer will be on Fantasy Island,,,,have you ever been there? Its lovely this time of year!

Probably more likely than Leicester winning the League, so you never know

We all thought Malky was a good idea at the time, but that went sour.

We thought that Solskjaer was a good alternative, but that was an expensive disaster.

We were all underwhelmed by the appointment of Slade, but that actually turned out OK.

So lets give the new guy a chance. When I saw him speak on TV earlier he said that there would be changes in the backroom staff. Perhaps he is the man to bring Bellamy on board? Who knows, but come August I'll be back behind the manager and the team.

"Slade turned out OK".....you want to think about that buddy

He settled and improved the team after Ole left, and he didn't steal money from Tan. That's an OK outcome compared to his predecessors

Could have written this myself Stringfellow!
It's exactly how I feel. So much shite on here and and very disappointed by the announcement but will look forward to the new season and support the team and coach.

Although ultimately Slade let us down with that pathetic run in overall an objective fan would conclude his management as OK.

It was never proved that MM did anything wrong in the transfer market but when something looks like a duck, walks like a duck and quacks like a duck then you can be sure it is a duck, if you get what I mean

Same here. Without repeating Stringfellows views completely PT wasn't my first choice but now the call has been made I'm fully behind him.

Alarm bells sounded within weeks of Ole's reign for me. It was all over after the loss at Swansea and drubbing at home to Hull City

The loss to Swansea hurt more but that performance against Hull was the worst by any CCFC team since the turn of the century.

Back the manager, give him support and wait and see.

Just saying.

Yep!

It's a done deal, we are where we are, we know Paul Trollope is a good coach and it appears (I liked how he came across in his interviews) that he has a different philosophy to his predecessor

It's now time to move forward together, get behind the new man in charge and (maybe more importantly) the team he puts together to represent us next season

C'mon Paul Trollope! C'mon Cardiff City! C'mon fellow Bluebirds! Let's unite behind the club and affect what's in front of us rather than moan about what we can't, i.e. the past!
