'Interesting,will a 3rd person from our club leave to join '

Thu May 22, 2014 12:13 pm

Julian Jenkins who was very high up at Cardiff City Football Club from the commercial side/manager of ticket office to marketing and so on, who had been with our club for approx 15 years joins Servette FC on June 1st.

Then Kevin Cooper has left us also to join them on their coaching staff, maybe now Bellamy(who can go in my opinion), is there something we dont know on the exodus of staff from our club and by the way the first two names were already leaving us well before we got relegated. Hmm interesting



Swiss side Servette FC eye up swoop for Cardiff's Craig Bellamy

CRAIG BELLAMY is being linked with a move to Switzerland.

Published: Thu May 22, 2014



Craig Bellamy played for Cardiff in the Premier League last season[GETTY]

The former Wales international is being targeted by Servette FC as they look to pair the 34-year-old in a coaching team with Kevin Cooper, himself a former Cardiff player.

Valencia, meanwhile, have made the first move in the battle to land Cardiff midfielder Gary Medel, 26, who has a release clause in his contract and is expected to leave

I can assure you that that is simply not true. Julian didn't even go through the application process he was head hunted while at a EUFA CONFERENCE. I'll say no more on the subject.

Nothing? Thought we would get some news on this after 1. Of june. Rumour arround is that JJ was heavily involved in pushing Red, and the one slipping info to the supposedly blue, and now anti Tan. Bit like Malky, club info leaked is dead as disco :?

I was speaking to Julian when he had the job offer. He was head hunted for the job while at a UEFA. Meeting. I know Geneva quite well.and we were talking about the area in general and how crap the Swiss food is. Nothing at all in sinister about the move just an offer he couldn't refuse giving to him by the main man
Of servette. The club in fact he was saying was not only football.but ice hockey and basketball and his job involved the whole lot.
It's obvious he would take good staff with him it's always done. He also said one day he would like to come back to us as he really enjoyed working for the club.
