Cardiff City FC can confirm that Bobby Decordova-Reid has joined Fulham on loan, subject to international clearance.
The 26-year-old has signed an agreement with the Whites for the remainder of the 2019/20 campaign.
We'd like to thank Bobby for his contribution while at Cardiff City Stadium.

On loan ?
Really that's even worse
We cant have seriously just given our main rivals for promotion our best forward for the season ?
Pathetic
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:07 pm
Loan?? Really??
Heard on the radio it was £10mill cash deal
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:07 pm
I can't believe what I am seeing, we loan out our best and most expensive player to our rivals, Warnock what are you thinking??
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:07 pm
There will be a fee involved. But it does seem a bit odd. But this opens the door for Tomlin which I'm happy with
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:08 pm
Loan ! Must be FFP in order to get the other 2 in.
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:08 pm
This just doesn’t make sense sending him on loan to a championship club. The only good thing he won’t be playing against us.

Should have built the team around him. He obviously has quality at this level.
Hope we are charging Fulham a crazy loan fee and paying all his wages. That is the only positive I can think of.
Unless our gamble signings all turn good, we look weaker on paper than when we went up.

WTF is going on? Cardiff City the club that just keeps giving. Lost all of our best players and replaced them with dross. Unbelievable

Record season ticket numbers will dwindle next season!

Well, that will surely depend on results during the season rather than the pedantics of whether the club/manager have splashed out on 'names' just to appease the few who don't understand the club's position
There will be disappointment for the club, manager and supporters that some of their targets haven't materialised but we are where we are and we move on...mainly (but clearly not all) together!

Warnock said in his Wigan post match interview that a few questions had been answered. I think Reid was one of them. He has not looked a threat pre-season and was completely anonymous at Wigan. My guess is the player has engineered all this too and if he was going to be a bad apple then best to get him out of the club. I am disappointed but not heartbroken at all. He still has a lot to prove that he is consistently a 20 goal a season player. Time to move on and focus on the quality we do have and we do have a decent team and a shout at the play offs this season in my view.

Not at all bothered about the player. Done nothing in Cardiff shirt. However, was hoping for some money though .

Might as well have gone the whole hog and given them etheridget on loan as well. What a joke. Give a supposed rival for promotion a good player on loan who will thrive in their system and at the same time help them out with the FFP rules whilst do nothing to help our compliance. No wonder we are so much debt.
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:26 pm
He has been really average for us. I really wanted him to do well, but if his heart wasn't in it then he might as well go. We have to trust that Warnock knows what he is doing.
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:26 pm
Is this a loan with an obligatory 10m fee at the end of the season (so basically he's gone for good even if it is a loan) or is it just a loan and we get him back at the end of the season when a new manager comes in and will probably use him?

Hopefully a Clause to bring him back if he's a scoring sensation in January
Thu Aug 08, 2019 7:32 pm
At least if he is world class as most a making out he cant play against us

Fair enough, best in his position I should of said, just gutted he's gone on loan to a rival, and he's bound to score a shedful

This thread is hilarious.
He obviously wanted out and things went on after the Wigan game which Warnock didn’t like so what’s the point of keeping him.
A sale would have probably been better but if that couldn’t be arranged then a season long loan was the next best thing.
How the hell people think he was our best player amazes me. He’s hardly played and been bang average. He will probably do well at Fulham but they play proper football unlike us.
He wants out then sod him.

You mean except his assist for Bogles goal.
No doubt about it, more money wasted.
Warnock needs to make this work now, over to him but it feels like a lot money wasted and sent out on loan and this squad looks a good distance off a promotion squad to me.

Exactly he was weedy and crap for us, every time we played him people would get excited and he always let Warnock down, he didn't suit us and wanted to leave so he can feck off.

Yeah, gotta be 6ft2” and slow to play for Neil..
Thu Aug 08, 2019 8:04 pm
Feel sorry for him - never got a run of games to get any momentum and our style was never suited to him. Will be a great player at this level for a team who plays on the deck. Hope we don’t live to regret this one.

I don't agree our style doesn't suit him. OK a passing team maybe better but for me he often causes a problem in the number 10 role but was never given a chance.

SVEN
What is the clubs position
Because i am confused please enlighten me?
Thu Aug 08, 2019 8:38 pm
Wow, you're one of our main promotion rivals, you've already got Mitrović up top, here you go have a player who was top scorer last time he played in the division.
No you dont have to give us 10-12mil have him on loan!!!
This is can only be that we're trying to save on wages!!
Just when you think you've seen it all!!
