" YOU BACK YOUR MANAGER OR YOU SACK HIM? "

" YOU BACK YOUR MANAGER OR YOU SACK HIM? "

I've now spoken to numerous persons at our club including Directors, Dalman,CEO Ken Choo and coaches etc
To be fair to Russell Slade he has done everything that has been asked of him, cost cutting including get rid of players he might of needed etc

Slade has virtually spent zero on transfers this season, but I will say when given money last season players in, in my opinion were not Championship standard, Doyle, Revel, O'Keefe, Kennedy etc , plus out of 14 of his signings only 1 player Peltier plays week in week out.

Slade this season has asked for a new striker and a new midfielder, was told we have to see how Tans news signing Saadi does first and wait till January at least and then told you have enough midfielders.

If your not going to back your football manager, you surely don't believe in him?

Is it because of lack of funds? Yet Tan and Dalman publicly stated this season they would back Slade or is it that they don't believe in Slade or trust his judgement as a manager?

If so they should sack him, if they want promotion?

Opinions please

it depends if they've told slade he has to sell ,to fund any new players ,we do need new players but I think we need to get rid of the dead wood too there's players picking up wages which are not in slades plans and need to be moved on sold or out on loan ,Im wondering annis what you think as you have been the most vocal of the debt we are in do you think we should go into more debt to buy players or should we sell to fund new players ?

Annis, I agree with you, if Slade has done what has been asked of him which he has then there can only be one of two reasons why he hasn't been backed so far this season, the first one of course maybe is the lack of funds and the second is they don't trust him with funds to get the right players in, if it is the latter then the regime has to sack him surely, if it's the first option then Slade is the best and cheapest option to stay as Cardiff City manager. My personal opinion is that they don't think Slade is the man to take us forward hence the lack of backing.

Sack Him

The style of football is turgid at best

You have the same views as me and if it's the second option which many in the club are saying, then he should be sacked.

Sadly that's spot on

Lets wait til January and see what happens,I suppose we are all hoping Idriss is going to come good.
It is frustrating when most of us think a good goal scorer could make all the difference.I just think Tan doesn't want to spend any half decent money and he does trust Slade.
Annis deep down do you think Tan is happy with what Slade has has achieved or do you believe he is disappointed but cos he's his own appointment has kept low key.

I think tan will be happy with all the savings

He is doing exactly what he was brought in to do. Help to reduce the debt and day to day running costs, while keeping us away from the relegation zone at the same time. I have said since the season started that promotion is not on Tan's list of priorities. If it was, he would have splashed out on someone with experience at this level, and a track record of getting clubs promoted. If you were really aiming for the Premiership this season, would you employ a manager who has absolutely no experience of management outside of the bottom leagues, and a manager who has never actually won anything during a fairly lengthy career.

Keep him untill the end of the season, thank him for all he's done and find a manager that can move us forward.

I don't think he has signed 14 players?

I believe Kennedy was an agent signing.

This post is 100% spot on. Tans priority is not promotion back to the PL, but recouping cash via parachute patents and slashing the wage bill, but retaining our championship status. We are a championship club and we need to remain in this league come what may

Annis you havnt answered a question posted earlier ,do you want the club to go into more debt or sell players so slade can get some new players which are needed

I don't think he has signed 14 players?

In fact here is a list of his signings.

Tamas free
Ajayi free
Saadi free
Ameobi loan
Revell 150k
O Keefe 750k
Malone 100k
Mcaleny loan
Johnson free
Kennedy 100k
Doyle 700k
Peltier 100k

Might have missed some but can't really include mcaleny as he played last year when here and no longer on loan

Every manager brings players in they don't play. Ole did it with half his players normally expensive ones. At least Slade's don't cost as much as them or the most famous signing for the future who didn't play Mr Cornelius who cost about 6 times Slade's total spend.

After the performance on Monday night, if we do somehow get promoted this season, then we won't stand a chance in the Premier League. Slade has done a 'good' job. Not spectacular. It could be a lot worse, though.

I will support him. But don't think he is the man to take us to the next level.

I think he's good enough to take us up but once up we should get rid of him like we should of done last time with malky and get a proven premiership manger in to take us to the next level

I'd keep him until the end of the season We're stable with him in charge and that's the only positive comment i can say about him like anyone can buy and sell players its not rocket science

Wez you couldn't sack a manager who took us up. Would not be fair need to give him a go.

Problem is though, I can't remember the last time a manager was sacked after getting their team promoted!

Yep I agree with the fact that getting Pocchetino turned out to be a brilliant decision but it wasn't popular. There are other teams who have done similar and regretted it.

I would bet the wage bill is still one of the highest in the league.

I think the club are doing it the right way even if I don't think its with the right man.

If the club are happy to stay a mid table championship side with no ambition then keep him
If they really are ambitious as they keep saying they want premiership football then slade needs to go

Personally I think Slade should go he has trimmed the wages down but anyone can sell players the hard bit is getting decent replacements and this he has failed in, most of Slades signings don't play or are not good enough at this level, you only have to look at what Dave Jones did on a limited budget we were always challenging and playing good attacking football
Slade needs to go imo

Watford sacked their manager this season didnt they
