WHERE DO CARDIFF CITY GO FROM HERE???

Firstly, like everybody else, i am absolutely devastated by the events of the last three days, Emiliano Sala had the world at his feet and it seems like it's been cruelly taken away from him. (still hoping for a miracle) Football wise we, as a club are now in a horrible, horrible situation, going into the transfer window we all agreed that we needed a right back, midfielder and of course at least one if not two strikers. There is only seven days left of the window so if the club went out and brought in the players we need we will be leaving ourselves open to all sorts of comments from the football world, heartless, insensitive, no compassion etc, on the other hand if the club announce that do to the events of the last week we will "go with what we've got" would give us world wide admiration as a club but probably in most city fans eyes (myself included) doom us to certain relegation. I know things are still delicate and people are still hurting but football will go on very soon for us sohow do you all think the way the club should go with the transfers.????

Maybe a midfielder, other than that, go with what we've got

You could well be right, ironically the one position we are STILL desperate to bring in is a striker/goalscorer, but i just can't see that happening now can you??

(Since i posted this i've noticed there are a few simular threads started)

Any new signing/s that we might make would be kept low-key - there wouldn't be the usual photo shoot holding the jersey or any fanfare.

It's a desperately sad situation all around.

We keep looking for Emiliano, that's what we do

That goes without saying, but in reality Emiliano and the pilot will probably never be found and Cardff Ciry football club have to go/move on as sad as it all is.

I think that's most likely maybe a loan right back in.

Ken Choo has confirmed to talksport there will be NO dispensation to bring anyone in after the deadline.
Not even a few days.
Fecking shocking

Fecking shocking

There needs to be some understanding shown by the FA

The below is shocking, the Premier League dont give two shits.


Cardiff City will not be granted any additional time to sign a new striker in the transfer window by the Premier League, with just a week to go until the 31 January cut-off.

Chief executive Ken Choo has spoken to Talksport this morning to say that he has spoken with the Premier League about the situation regarding Emiliano Sala's disappearance, with Cardiff spending £15m on the striker last Saturday.

However, despite admitting that the situation is proving a difficult one to handle, Choo confirmed that they will not be granted any extra time to make another signing.

I think from the club's perspective, we are managing the situation but we have another department that has to continue with looking at the transfers.

I am basically multi-tasking three or four jobs at once. It is really difficult physically and emotionally and mentally to cope in a situation like this.

We have to segregate our minds into looking for Emiliano, segregate our minds into helping the family - and the club is trying its best to provide the most care for the family and giving them the information they want, we want to tell them all the facts line-by-line.

We are still running a business which continues, we still have to meet the transfer deadline.

We have spoken to the Premier League on how tough it is for us to cope given there are eight days to go [until the deadline] and we have been watching Emiliano for months and we got it over the line finally.

And now we have eight days to go and we don't really know how to cope with this scenario but we have to meet the deadline.

The bottom line from the Premier League is that you have to meet the deadline like everyone else.

Absolutely the wrong decision, this is an unprecedented tragic event and requires a level of understanding and compassion which hasn't been forthcoming. Totally shocking from the Premier League.

With a bit of luck Real Madrid will feel sorry for us and send Bale on loan

Might be a bit too early, but what is happening with the £15m ?
Will cardiff get paid by the insurance to cover the 15m?
