Then don't try to fix it, all he is doing is bring in bad feeling. If he wants to make money out of Cardiff City and see us do well in the prem,he is doing everything he shouldn't do.
Why get rid of a guy that has managed to bring in some top players, and replace him with a guy thats never had any experience of dealing with Agents and Footballers ?
Surly this is the first steps on very dodge road ,we all know how difficult it is to bring top players to a new prem club.
Tan is about to start a big fk up ,if we were on the stock market now, our shares would go right down.

He started the 'big fk up' when he did the rebrand, since then Tan has proved that he knows/cares nothing
for Cardiff City. He is effectively a megalomaniac

Yes, he sees it as a big way of pushing his companies to a global audience. He doesn't give two hoots about the actual club.

He must do, If he is using the club to do that, then he knows as a Businessman ,that he must look after the club. Believe me this guy isn't stupid ,you dont get money like he has from being stupid.

I take your point mate but for a mega successful businessman he's
Being grossly naive/stupid with the way he's dealing with the club on a local
level. If you take over an enterprise there are usually 2 goals:
1. Consolidation
2. Growth

He's done anything but consolidate. He's lost a few thousand fans because of the rebrand
and arguably lost tens of thousands of sales on red merchandising.
He HAS achieved new supporters ( those who have taken the place of fans who haven't renewed
and with some merchandising) but that growth has been largely eaten up by his failure to consolidate

Now he's apparently alienating staff, which continues to have a knock on effect with
negative publicity and subsequently local support.

He may be 'expanding the brand' in the Far East , but his management of
the business locally is shocking
