Solankie gone. Clyne gone, Kamara gone. Ffs Cardiff hierarchy wake up, you are looking at players who have no intention of playing for Cardiff City. Start targeting players who want to come here.

Maybe no players want to come here?

A certain relegation battle and the lowest wages in the league and it's hardly an enticing prospect for most players I wouldn't have thought.

totally agree with you perhaps they should read my post on changing the rhetoric.

I honestly don't think we were ever "In" for Kamara and we haven't even been rumoured to be interested in Solanke. The only player I reckon that we wanted was Clyne and he's picked Bournemouth which Isnt really a surprise tbh.

If bournmouth can get 2 SIGNINGS over the line this quick and we have known since the season started that we needed more recruits why can' t we and if its down to wages then perhaps a meeting to change wage policy etc might help surely all these things have been discussed but the movement from us seems at best snail paced its just so frustrating watching others teams getting sorted aspecially players that the manager has earmarked himself niasse clyne are just 2. Ughhh

Solanke is not worth £19mill so glad we have not gone for him

Clyne probably had a choice between the easy life on the south coast next to the beach easing through the season or a relegation battle with Us. Same wages whoever he plays for, i know which i would choose.

We are looking at championship/foreign strikers around the £10 mill price range and foreign loans in my opinion.

Defoe was the player we needed to shoot us to safety

They are no where near our rivals unless you think they are relegation candidates?

£19 million palace pulled out yesterday and it was only £6.5 million

Add puncheon to the list off to udders from palace

Re: Gone Gone Gone

Fri Jan 04, 2019 6:25 pm

Yep. Solanke valued around £10m on transfermarkt.
Expect to pay a premium in January.
Looks like Bournemouth wrapped Clyne into the deal.

Yeah but with madine going, doesn’t that make you think that warnock already has someone lined up?

Re: Gone Gone Gone

Fri Jan 04, 2019 6:34 pm

Puncheon would not have improved us

Re: Gone Gone Gone

Fri Jan 04, 2019 6:41 pm

Yep agree guys and Stoke, who are going no where and managed by a muppet spent £20 million today, we just cannot compete ! :bluebird:

Mate your like a broken record. It's the 5th Jan, relax. They're working on it.

Remember the crippling debt our owner is paying off from last time? Remember the return to blue and the stipulations involving a change in investment???

f*cking short memories some of you tools.

Why are fans getting knickers in a twist at players going to other clubs? Firstly no evidence to say we even put in offers for an individual or that they are what we want or suitable? Time to whinge is after windows closed and see who we've bought or not whatever the case maybe... :old:

"Solankie gone. Clyne gone, Kamara gone. Ffs Cardiff hierarchy wake up, you are looking at players who have no intention of playing for Cardiff City. Start targeting players who want to come here."

Why so surprised? Whether just paper-talk or City did not have a genuine desire to sign these players it was never going to happen when City only pay approx £30k/wk when players can get double that at mighty Huddesfield. We are are a million miles away from competing for transfers at this level. Solanke, a PL reserve, cost a £19m transfer fee and is probably getting £70k/wk.

I'll call a spade a spade mate.

If you know the history then you should be able to see the reason we're not doing business like others around us.

I've said this before, unless the Tan & the board change their low wage policy then the players they say that they are chasing are not going to come to Cardiff City. Cardiff pay the lowest wages in the Premiership.
