Bid for Alex Revell ?

According to clubcall [url]https://www.clubcall.com/cardiff-city/bluebirds-bid-for-revell-1753839.html?][/url]

Looking at his goals per game ratio this should be a non starter, so hopefully it is just lazy journalism based on the fact that Slade has managed him previously.

Sadly I think this is the kind of player Slade is comfortable working with. Not impressed.

I cannot control my myself in the possibility of buying this player.

I am so excited.

All our lives have changed.

Remember this day.

it seems slade got the job on the basis that he promised we could challenge for promotion, even though this involved shipping out all the high earners and replace them with cheaper lower league and championship players.

slade is an honest manager, but he is no water into wine manager. you usually get what you pay for in football, i cannot see us getting promotion unless slade is backed more financially.

Some want the ronaldo's though wez , personally i couldnt give a toss if we had 11 div 2 players brought in to replace the lot as long as we stayed up and showed some fight. Its all about the glory and big name players for some. A team playing well that gel together will get you up any league. I mean look at bournemouth and there 11 superstars. Atleats we are cutting back ( less loans & less debt ) thats clear for all to see in slades appointment and the three players we are about to sign which does not mean there crap to be fair but some want 10million pound signings :thumbup:

Watched him in play-off final . He was on fire.

Not a household name but a player that could be the workhorse
To play off. Got some touches too.

Better than Mach and Maynard - hard trier than jones.

Just can't see how Revell will improve our attack. We've already got strikers that can't score. I'm not one for saddling us with more debt but this signing baffles me. Malone I sort of understand as we're shipping goals and its a defensive option. Revell I dont get.
