Every team has a blip, in my eyes, we never had the type of squad to compete with the autos whether that's in quality or in numbers. People forget that we are still fighting a massive debt and I would still rather be financially stable than throw loads of money at a chance of promotion because if we fail, we could be another Pompey or Rangers, then what would those fans say.

Yes it's taking longer than most of us would like but we clearly have the info structure to do it but some of our fans seem to think we're this massive club that have a Devine right to play premiership football, we don't!

Everyone at this club has a job to do and whether that's TG and Vincent Tan, Malky, the tea lady or us as fans, we all have to move together in the right direction. The nay Sayers are always going to be there and some of the posters on this boards reaction Saturday was disgusting and quite frankly embarrasses this football club on a regular basis but I guess they will all reach pubity at some point and we can all move on.

Hopefully next Sunday will be a catalyst to a strong league push but whatever happens this season, it's still far beyond what we expected so let's just enjoy it for a change!

We also need to end this nonsense about the Malaysians, VT runs a global conglomerate so he knows how run a (very) small business which is Cardiff City just as Malky knows how to manage a club, all the foundations are being set and we should all be grateful we are not in Rangers or Portsmouth's position



I am very grateful that we are not in Pompey's position or Rangers and yes the Malaysians did save us from the tax man, my only worry is that as well as being run as a business, you need to know your football as well and I wish VT cared about City.

Is there a problem ?

Is everything ok and its just a blip ?

Is it all going wrong ?

Is everything going to plan ?


TBH I think the problem is Vukcic, I'm not sure but I'm guessing that on a one month loan there's probably a clause in the deal that he has to play. I think by accommodating him we've had to change our system, so even though he's a quality player everything else isn't quite fitting around him.



I think you might be spot on Nat, thats a first from me to you :lol: :ayatollah:

Sadly this might back fire on us.

Its a reason why I'm not fussed on loans at this stage.

But vuckic didn't start against Leicester so he can't be blamed.

Its bit of everything i think ,tired,injurys,whatever but the bottom line is are squad was never big enough for any of these things and we have done nothing about it with 2 loan windows and two transfer windows.I expect a reverse on the we need new players violin we have all had for months on end galore come may you will hear MM saying we failed because of are squad size,whos to blame for that nobody bar the club,it was always going to happen. :ayatollah:

I think you will find that the reason for our slump in form(im fed up of using the word blimp)is because Malky for what ever reason failed to strengthen the squad in January,there seems to me that in some positions there is very little competition for places and inevitably will breed complacency,there are certain players in the team who know darn well that they will get selected to play no matter how they perform with the exception of poor old Earnshaw of course

I have the same thoughts and this could hurt us, if we don't bring in players now.
