Seemed genuinely drained by all the bad management throughout the club and seems like he wants to amend these problems but is it all for show for the great escape as he has no where to run at present and to much at stake al all sounds very positive but will it ever be as rosary as promised or will there eventually be more Msjor hurdles or as all the bad at the club now been removed by Vincent !

A good watch. I have said in the past that those fans who painted him as a villain were wrong. There are plenty of worse examples of owners.
With VT there is a strong emphasis is on doing the honourable thing and not leaving us in the mess he inherited. It is clear that being seen to keep his word is important to him. Otherwise it reflects badly on him and Malaysia.etc.
However I don't think he wants to put massive funds into getting promotion etc. And no doubt he will get denounced for that in the next weeks / months.

Remember that he is 64 now and if he stays for 5 years to get rid of all debt, he will be pushing 70 and may want to call it quits.That's fair enough.
Some fans should be careful who they wish for as owner. We could have had someone hollow and false (I won't mention any names or it would spoil my day!!!)

Good to actually hear some passion in his voice when talking about Slade and the Echo.

Fair play, that was funny :lol: I can't remember the last time I saw an owner who knows absolutely nothing about football pleading the case for patience with the manager, who is the main cause of supporters leaving in their droves, it usually the owners who are too trigger happy. It was really good to hear, if true, how VT watches every game though :bluescarf:

Vincent Tan has done several things wrong at CCFC:

1) Turned us to red.
2) Made his lack of football knowledge known. Embarrassing for our club.
3) Incidents in the BPL. E.g. Booing our fans vs Sunderland.
4) Appointed Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who was doomed to fail.
5) Wasted ridiculous money to Ole and poisoned our club.

I could name more. But the man has learnt that he has fucked up and trying to correct his mistakes.

1) He's turned us back to BLUE!
2) Brought in Slade. Who has trimmed the squad, reduced wages and still remain a solid mid-table Championship team.
3) Reduced our club's debt significantly and set up a business plan to be debt free by 2021.

Right now, Cardiff City are not playing great football. But, we are steadying a ship which was once sinking.

We must be PATIENT! The good times will return in due time! :thumbright: :ayatollah:

He should have spoken out sooner-now all the agenda merchants will find it harder to peddle their bullshit.

Old vinny is a very clever man you don't become a billionaire by being a mug. Everybody needs to realise he is clearing up other people's mistakes at the club. Gotta give him credit, he could walk without a care in the world but in five years we could be debt free. Well done VT.

a character indeed.

I've always seen him as a ruthless man.

And while he must be a ruthless businessman to be a billionaire, he is not a ruthless man.

what he has said is right from his point of view.
He trusted people who spunked his money or fucked him over.
naive to british football and people.
If it wasn't for the rebrand, he'd be a hero now :bluescarf:

Good post :thumbup:

One thing though. I don't think we are playing 'bad' football and if we were scoring goals at home we would see things a little differently, as some of our build-up play is very good and only wasted by the lack of 'cutting edge' in around the 18-yard box ;)
