Simon Jordan on Cardiff

He's generally right, but the owners aren't in charge of coaching and team selection, that is down to Mick.

The owners did not pick side after side of defenders and defensive players.

Also, if Mick wasn't allowed to bring in more attacking / pacey players - he should just come out and say that he isn't allowed to bring anyone in, rather than saying he is happy with the squad and thinks it's good enough for a top 6 finish.... reality is EVERYONE can see it's not - no team have ever been promoted or got to the play offs without ANY wingers or pace or with such an unbalanced squad.

So Mick should not be immune to criticism because we have a poorly run club, some things are absolutely his own doing,

I mean not only has mick not brought in pacy attacking players he let one go

I listen to Jordan's show a fair but and he is generally right about things, not surprised how easily he identified our real problems at Board level. We would do well to heed his advice.

FFS no manager can come out and say I have no support from the owners every manager who does that are gone look at Sheff United last season and many others the manager has to work with what they got.

Harry Wilson is a massive lost and other loan players who went then you have Lazy Tomlin not doing his bit. we kept Moore but otherwise it was a dreadful summer for a manager it is clear the owners do not support managers since the Malky debacle where again Tann threw his dummy out.

Sadly Tann is a problem has no interest since we told him please give us the blue back this told me that he is had no interest unless it is all about him and his crazy ideas and until he goes and we get a new owner with people on the board who know about football only then will this club move forward.

No manager will get this club forward we can sack Mick and we will be in the same position sooner than later we are in the same position as Newcastle just they are bigger but we both have an owner who thought I will be popular and make some money and now its just get by hopefully.

We need a new owner for a start

The last sentence is where it all falls down. The only serious offer was turned down (old news) and in the meantime we need to understand that whatever else we know (or think we know) about the owner, he is keeping this club afloat

Some will disagree but it's the singularly biggest thing we should all appreciate, particularly in this post-Covid shutdown era; just go ask supporters of many other clubs including Derby County, Reading and Swansea...

As much as i enjoy what he has to say on various of topics in football he got us wrong when he and Sinclair say that we were being disrespectful to the manager. What do they expect when we lose 5-1 and 4-0 on the bounce. Issue is that they dont watch our games to make a solid opinion on matters at Cardiff. The issue with Mick is he is doing what he knows in terms of his tactics but us fans want a different style of football especially because we got youngsters playing for us who we know can get better playing a different way. It's just the way it is im afraid.

The owner put money in just to keep the club safe, if he wanted more from our club he would simply put more money into it but dont because of his businesses in Malaysia.

Have the board actually done that bad? There were a few queries when MM was appointed,all the dinosaur stuff, but I don't recall too many complaints when he won six games on the trot and he got us briefly in a playoff position. As I recall there were quite a few who' said give him a new contract in case he gets poached from us. Not much chance of that happening now.

Isn't a lot of this "the board don't know much about football "with the benifit of hindsight. When we gave MM a two year contract was it predicable that things would tune disastrous a few months later.

Lots of people are saying we should get a young progressive manager who would get us playing football without ever naming one who would come here. Can't think of one off the top of my head.

Not defending MM,he could go tomorrow as far as I am concerned, but some of the stick the board is getting is unfair. They made what looked like some logical decisions at the time which are now turning out bad it happens in football

I didnt want mick as manager but thought he deserved his contract. I reluctantly accepted the fact that the football might be poor but at least we would be organised and hard to beat. I'll support any manager until I think he is not taking the club forward. Mick looks like he has lost the plot lately. The club are also putting an emphasis on youth with a manager playing the worst football I have ever seen that couldn't be further away from getting the best out of the youngsters. He needs to go now.

Agree. Steve Morison would be a class shout.

Morrison is doing a good job for the u23s. Not sure he's got the experience yet though for the championship. We do need someone capable of changing the style of play. And we need the board to back/stick with them and not shit their pants after 10 games and get another hoofball specialist in if things don't instantly improve.

Or because of FFP rules.

Perhaps someone outside the Cardiff bubble speaking objectively on this may strike a chord with Tan.

It’s been so bleeding obvious for years and years that the football side of the club is controlled by people with nil “football nous” and that’s why we have slipped so badly and behind clubs we should be on a level par with eg Brighton as a striking example.

Instead of ‘McCarthy out’ it should be Dalman (in particular) and Choo out.

The sooner those amateurs disappear to run their financial empires the better.
