Madine deal

Sun Jan 06, 2019 2:57 pm

Warnock has stated that the Madine deal was done very quickly. Why then can't we sign players quickly?

Properly run football clubs tend do this with ease. We are run as a business and are viewed as punters not fans.

It’s a possibility that some deals aren’t as straight forward as others and I’d hope that the players we’re after have a few suitors.
As NW says, it’s pointless getting bodies in that are no better than we have, just for the sake of it.

Whenever a player hears that Cardiff is interested he instructs his agent to immediately start looking for a better option and won't sign for us until all better options have been ruled out.

We're probably every players "Plan B" or even "Plan C" in case nothing else works out.

Are you saying we are not (after how it has turned itself around since the tax man cometh)? :? :shock:

I've always thought your posts bordered on 'oddly negative' and you finally confirmed it! :roll: :oops:

Just one example of where this club has come from...

Odd and negative I would say.

By every parameter measureable we are a properly run football club.
