Enough is enough! Vincent Tan and his cronies have turned the once proud Cardiff City into a circus
Benjamin James Sunday 16 Feb 2014

It’s getting boring now, being at the mercy of imbeciles. Just as things were settling down under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, our glorious CEO Simon Lim comes out with a statement that defies belief.

I won’t bore you with his rhetoric simply because it’s become so dull, but I will give you one line that caused a bit of laughter.

In relation to the club selling Andreas Cornelius back to Copenhagen and losing a bit of cash, Lim attacked Malky Mackay: ‘The key shareholders have made their dissatisfaction of such a huge loss known to the board of directors, which they believe is due to imprudent and careless management undertaken by the previous football management.’

Ouch! Malky will be smarting. Or, rather, he knows that Lim was the man signing cheques last summer.

Indeed, Malky said as much in a statement in reply to this, and also reminded Lim that the club was undergoing a legal battle with Mackay at the moment so Lim should probably keep schtum.

Anyway, I’m rather bored of writing about the antics of our owners. Their childish and, frankly, unprofessional feud with Mackay has completely destabilised the football club.

Cardiff City deserve to go down. The club has no class and the owners just keep pushing the fans further and further away.

Cardiff City fans protest owner Vincent Tan Rebecca (Picture: Reuters)
It’s amazing really. First the rebrand, then the refusal to listen to fans, then the campaign against Iain Moody and Malky, and now this. When you think they can’t do anymore, they do.

Ole has come in and can’t lose. We go down, it’s Malky’s fault. We stay up, he’s a hero.

So many fans said we shouldn’t protest the owners because it would cause problems for the players on the pitch.

But I say we don’t need to worry about causing these players a problem when the board and the club are doing it for them.

Before, people would defend Vincent Tan because he’s pumping money in to the club. That’s irrelevant now. He hasn’t turned the loans into equity meaning we have fallen foul to the new financial fair play laws.

It has never been more obvious that Tan isn’t the right man for this football club, but what position will this club be in when he leaves? I dread to think.

We were a mess when he took over but he’s managed to turn us into a train wreck.

It just shows how bad our club has become and this is just one of many many Media papers that now write about us, but never ever anything positive, I wonder why?

Do we really need the media to tell us what's happening with OUR club ?!?!

The problem as I see it , is what are we gonna do about Tan , his cronies and his antics ?!?! What can we do ?!?

Too many , for too long have done too little ! In essence we , those who aren't happy with Tan's CIRCUS ,have done sweet FA !

BU got chastised ! The wear blue campaign is too passive ! The Malky Riot was no more than hot air !

Thoughts !?!

annis, arrange the boycott of a game or another March. i think the problem with the last few marches is that they happen near the next game after its been decided. need at least a months build up. posters up. flyers. every social media site and forum. make sure all 26,000 know about it. the reason i Say for u to arrange it is because people know u and you've got plenty of avenues to get the message out. i bet if i tried id be the only person to turn up lol

I had thought about it seriously and was always thinking about doing one towards the end of the season. I go in to hospital on March 7th for an operation, gallstones removed and so I miss Fulham home, I am still hopeful to go to Everton away, depending how it all goes.

I will depending on how I am, but there are hundreds out there who should take the lead.

Whatever has happened last summer Simon Lim should have fallen on his sword the same as MacKay and Moody, Lim's statement is a load of bollux, in fact the only Malaysian who had a bit of credibility was TG, why the hell was he dismantled from our club? He was the only man us fans respected.
