Cardiff City Laughing Stock FC..................

Tue Mar 04, 2014 3:03 pm

..........the circus and clowns in charge just get worse and worse but hey, talk about putting himself in the limelight, he's a bloody expert! :old:

Wonder what Super Tan will come up with next before the end of the season?

I bet he's withdrawn the bonus offer but I bet he's got something up his long trouser leg, you watch!! :D

Oh dear, glad its near the end of this season, don't think anything could get much worse - unless his buddy Dave Jones is appointed as Director of Football :o

get a sense of humour for feck sake.

He tried to give our overpaid players an incentive to stay up - its disgusting - and if you can;t see they are earning millions a year already, you obviously have money to burn.

Unaware of the rules, mmm talk about protecting your leader, that's what his CEO and admin team are for!

only the mother-in-law gets the treatment!

Did it? Or someone who knows someone within the club, it wasn't a secret after all, you go home from work and you say I've just been offered an extrortionate amount of money to make sure we stay up, on top of the extortionate amount I earn already?

So anyone could have let the cat out, absolutley anyone!

I think the club you loved is sadly a pale reflection of what it stood for and what little is left will be totally eradicated under this clown. :ayatollah:

It's just one thing after another, always bad press. I honestly can't think of any other team in Premier League history who have behaved as unprofessional as we have over the course of the season. It's been a complete embarrassment and fiasco , almost bordering on pantomime stuff at times , in what is arguably the best league in the world !
Absolute joke !

maybe but our fans add to it..........what Tan has done this time is only news because its tan.........and to a large degree tan is the media jester because stories sometimes false or exagerated are fed to the press......
Swansea have been 10 times less professional in everything this year,but fans,players and boardroom figures close ranks...like the club i love used too

Come off it, yes it's because it's Tan, but he turned himself into a media jester as you put it , all by himself, he didn't need any help from anyone in doing so!

As a club on the world stage , the way we have conducted ourselves has been totally unprofessional and incompetent.

Our first shot in the big time and we made a complete and utter mess of things and whether you like it or not, as the title of this thread suggests, we have most certainly become a laughing stock , all due to the so called professional people who own our club today !

But closing ranks is part of being professional - and giving provocative interviews to the press slating the club's most loyal fans certainly is not. Appointing the painter as head of recruitment did us huge damage too. It's gone too far. I can't stand seeing Cardiff City ridiculed any more.

He offered them a large bonus for staying up - then he told them that actually they cannot have the bonus

You recon the players are going to react well to that? Defiantly not

Also shows he has huge faith I'm OGS...

i think most of our players have at least 1 brain cell .............AND are not babies or todlers.......no our players will spit the dummy out and have tantrums and demand the ice cream..........people really need to grow up

This isn't just about this instance though , it's everything that preceded it through the course of the season , a catalogue of errors from the people running the club for the whole world to see and an embarrassment to the Premier League!
The way we've conducted ourselves is not befitting of a club playing at this level and that's down to one person Tan!

Now that last bit did catch my eye. That really is a complete load of horse shite would love to see examples of this 10 times less professional this year.

If an employer offers his employees a large bonus.. then takes it away minutes later then his employees are going to be annoyed by this

You relate the players attitude to toddlers and babies but that is not a good comparison - Tan has shown incredibly poor business practices in an adult working environment and it is going to have negative consequences on the team
