I don't think it's that unrealistic, I mean on FIFA 13 I've signed beckham and nesta!!
Oh and Raheem Sterling!

Would not surprise me if Tan brings him in or tries to. Look at Blackburn trying to get Ronaldinho so anything can happen.
At the end of the day, sales will go through the roof, brand appeal will increase. Kids in Asia and America love Beckham so to get a shirt with his name on they'd need to buy the Cardiff City kit. The money generated would help towards the debts. It would not surprise me in the slightest if this was the latest move by Tan to try and make a tidy profit to pay off Sam, cough I mean Langston.

Some of you get upset thinking other fans laugh at us due to the re-brand.....what do you think they are doing whilst reading this!!
Will never ever happen, ridiculous even talking about it.

There's more chance of perthcelyn getting a waitrose.
It would make worldwide news if tan did pull it off, and the profile of the club would go up ten fold. The media would go crazy, they may even show us some love instead of hating us ha ha.

We look like clowns when people genuinely think we have a chance of these players coming to us. Why would brand beckham ever come to Cardiff, he's a London boy with every London team outside of arsenal and Chelsea would take him. He's also said he'd never come back to the uk if it wasn't united.
Giggs is now a Manchester lad, he's lived there longer than he has here. He has family and all his friends there. He will coach at united and learn his trade there, we could possibly take him as manager but never ever ever as a player.
Henry probably doesn't know where Cardiff is. When arsenal want you why would u go to Cardiff? The talk is player coach at the arsenal.
Can we please stick to well informed or actual transfer targets, as to those who visit the board we look like the biggest bunch of fans who have no idea about football, and will never be taken seriously.
I know they say its good to dream, but its more like an LSD trip on here right now.

Well it might be MADNESS all this talk of Beckham, but it just shows how far we have come when we are even talking about Beckham and Cardiff City.

Annis, thats just, it doesnt show how far we've come. It shows how delusional some fans are and how ridiculous expectations are getting again. I fear it will be our downfall.....yet again

I understand its good for the MB to get posters posting, but surely we just look stupid when people buy into this. We will be seen as a laughing stock by any other fans who see our fans who even believe a little that we have a chance of getting Becks.
Even if VT does want to chance his arm, I'd say its a big PR stunt to say this is the type of player we are after... When anyone with a football brain cell understands we have 0% chance and it makes our club look like we have no idea about football.
I hope we go the WBA/Norwich and actually the malky Cardiff way about our transfers and go for good pros who don't have an attitude and work hard for the results. We don't need any big timers here collecting a last pay check.

Look I honestly dont believe it will happen,but even Sky Sports just tweeted were 10/1 to sign him.
I do believe Tan would try for him though.

In my dreams its Messi and Ronaldo with David Hasslehoff just behind

Swansea got linked with David Villa
Ours is pure fantasy too, but as Annis says don't underestimate what dreams our unorthodox owner has for our club

He said don't put a tenner on any time soon, meaning he wants us to put more on, so we're happy and he's happy

It is fact that brand Beckham brings in three times as much revenue to the club than what is outgoings are so anyone looking to make a good financial profit and world marketing on him would 'attempt' to bring him in. Whether or not that 'attempt' is 'realisitic' is another matter through.

listen, does anyone think beckham will go, hmmm £100k p/w at PSG where i live in a beautiful city with the family, or cardiff, on £30k p/w
