Transfer Committee

The Transfer committee have been together since 20014 just over six years .It would be interesting to analyze how they have done since then and is it working..Tan has the final say and puts in his own ideas, rightly so if its his money..but the other two like Tan are business men not Football men...
The fourth man on that committee is the Manager the only one with considerable more football knowledge.
Should there be more football influence on that committee
Opinions

They have a hell of a lot of experience

Vincent tan has owned a top level football club for over a decade whilst also owner multiple other clubs around the world

In fact he is the 4th longest serving owner in the league

Dalman has been a director and chairman of this club for over 8 years including two premier League seasons

Ken Choo has been here over 6 years involved in different departments of the club

They are all also very successful businessmen who know how to run this club off the pitch.

Harris has been involved in the game for over 20 years at this level

They are very experienced now and the "they are not football men" does not wash anymore. How long do they have to be here to become football men ?

This "they are not football men" dig is just a way of abusing Tan because they have nothing to moan about at the moment other than a few poor results on the pitch

Mate, regarding football they have only experience of f*cking up contracts, fees, injuries, they no jack shit.

yes mate away from football good businessmen, but we need football men at the top as well as good businessmen

There's good and bad football men.. ultimately they are judged on the signings, and many of ours have been poor under various Managers. NH signgings have been the best in recent years. Experience and good decision making arent always obvious..but if you look at Arsenal(Ozil, Arshavin), Utd(Sanchez, Di MAria, Zaha), Chelsea(Mutu,Morata, Kepa, Schevchenko plus others), its not an easy call.

I am not having a dig at Tan...a lot of football experience...? Dalman came in 2013 thats seven years
what I am saying is that they are business men... not out and out Football men.. and they would probably do better if they allowed Football men to manage the club...
But they dont they have Yes men so they can control them
We need a Director of Football with Football knowledge
One thing we do agree on is that Tan came in and saved our club

But during those ten years we know what he did to our colours and learnt by it
But then saying things like David Marshall should shoot more
Because Wales were on fire got the assistant coach in and told us to play like Wales?
The Acedmey ...with ten years experience what has he done with that?

10 years is a long time , how long do they have to be here to be seen as football men?
I will guarantee they know more about running a professional football club than everybody on this message board put together

How are injuries the fault of the transfer committee?
The vassell issue i will conceed but who else have they signed that went wrong ?

People act like we are the only club who sign players that do not work out , for every bad signing we have had two good ones.

Was Zahore a mistake ? Signed him for peanuts , scored the goals to get us promoted then made massive profit on him.

How about Patterson who was injured when we signed him but turned out to be a great signing for cheap

Smithies was a bargain at £3mill

How about the free signings of Bamba , Etheridge , Hoilett and Mendez-Laing ?
All three went on to be a huge part of our promotion season

How about a the big name loan signings they have forked out on like Camarasa, Arter , Wilson , Bellamy , Ramsey
Were they mistakes ?

What about the appointments of two managers who won us promotion ?

Or the appointment of solskjaer who even though didn't work out here went on to manage arguably one of the biggest clubs in the world.

I would say there record is only shit if you only look at the bad points and ignore the good.

Nobody is perfect and this is not a computer game, mistakes happen at every club no matter how long you have been involved in football.

It was Warnock who signed Vassell , Flint and Niasse who all flopped but he's been involved in football for 50 years , or was he not a football man either ?

its all about opinions.. i respect yours but mine is they are not football men...

You make some excellent points regarding the vast experience of our transfer committee, but I think we need experience tailored towards highlighting football players who could be an asset to Cardiff City Football Club, that are within our financial remit and would be possibly interested in playing for us in the second tier. This is as opposed to the business world key skill sets the current incumbents possess. A subject matter expert of sorts, aside from the manager, who could provide a specialist second opinion.

As for Tan, it’s good to see your support for a man who has done more for the club than I ever will, all at his own financial risk.

its all about opinions.. i respect yours but mine is they are not football men...

And mine ,a fact and 100% all clueless on football

its all about opinions.. i respect yours but mine is they are not football men...

And mine ,a fact and 100% all clueless on football

The football facts are clear in black and white :

10 years in the game

Two promotions
League Cup final
Four play off finishes
Transfer records broken both buying and selling allowing us to be financially secure
Big name managers hired
Big name premier league loan signings

Most successful decade in the clubs history under our apparent useless transfer committee

Hey ho I'm guessing our u23s currently struggling because they are mostly last seasons u18s mean they know nothing about football

10 managers / 6 CEO’S

WASTED About £300mill and still in debt after all that success
And more debt than when they arrived , it should be zero by now.

Its actually 6 permanent managers and one of those only lasted 3 months before the club sacked him. Two of the others won promotion, Harris made the play offs first season, Solskjaer went on to manage the biggest club in the world and the other two were bought in to clear the squad out to start again.

You are counting David kerslake who was temporary for about a week and Gabbidon/Young pairing which were also temporary which let's be honest is only to try and make it look bad.

A whilst back you were saying that tan hasn't backed his managers now all of a sudden he has spent £300million. Average that out and its £30million per year .

I would say at championship level that is definitely called backing your managers.

The best is serviceable and manageable which was not the case with previous owners. He has kept his word regarding the debt to equity.

He has backed various managers in the transfer market. While still being responsible for the considerable debt the club had. When Tan took over we had very few actual assets. Else Ridsdale would have sold them. Instead he spent first season with little income as it had all been spent.

Then the red debacle which meant Tan spent loads as he promised.

With some on here if he cuts back he has no ambition if he spends he is adding to the debt.

He never will and never can win. The usual suspects chat on about 35 managers and the committee and 16 CEOs and 300 million in etc etc.

I agree mate
Its just clutching at straws to bash him because the truth is in the main he has done a brilliant job. I fully expect him to make good on his promise of making us debt free, he has given no reason to doubt him.

He is a very shrewd experienced businessman and has a very good
knowledge of the footballing world and how it works, there is a lot more involved than just signing players. His knowledge gained over 10 years actually working in this business far outweighs anybody on this forum who just look in from the outside and makes him a football man who most clubs fans would welcome with open arms if they had a chance of him owning them.

Ok I admit it

My real name is Vincent, I just want you all to like me but no matter what I do for the club I love, some fans act like selfish ungrateful assholes. I will take my cash and you guys can enjoy the Welsh league next year

Well the committee really made a balls up with this seasons signings didnt they?

But how many are our players? They are on loan.

We have got rid of lots of permanent players including Jazz and Conolly.

But on the other hand I can’t believe we gave a new contract to Jazz two years ago.

Does that work as having a dig at the committee from both sides?

Not sure what's going on with this board but all getting is snipping and digs at club/owner it's like open season ! They've done good and bad same as all clubs with committees? Rather than blame them why not blame managers who sighn players like vessels! committee only facilitate buying players the manager wants...

Totally agree mate

When the board do something wrong by all means say something but they've done a great job last few years, verdict is out on the Harris appointment but other than that they are doing a good job. Blaming them for a signing that was signed by a guy with over 50 years experience in the game then saying its Tans fault because he's not a football man is just wrong

He’s not my darling. Odious fecker. He ruined our biggest chance to be a stable premier league club with shit signings.

Wrong Allan Red fan, Malky was brought here to manage a team not to get involved in the politics side .
As you read what I said the other day, I chatted to Malky about the colour quite strongly and he stated his job was to get his players to win games .
It was up to our fans to stand up for our identity, but we won’t go in to that again as to this day I can’t stand those that accepted the despicable red

Not sure what's going on with this board but all getting is snipping and digs at club/owner it's like open season ! They've done good and bad same as all clubs with committees? Rather than blame them why not blame managers who sighn players like vessels! committee only facilitate buying players the manager wants...

Totally agree mate

When the board do something wrong by all means say something but they've done a great job last few years, verdict is out on the Harris appointment but other than that they are doing a good job. Blaming them for a signing that was signed by a guy with over 50 years experience in the game then saying its Tans fault because he's not a football man is just wrong

not only this its this yes man crap biggest yes man was Mackay for saying nothing about red? But hes the darling of people yet slade ect are ridiculed for doing things 99% of managers do at other clubs in same situation.... lots sheep on here that's for sure.

Wrong Allan Red fan, Malky was brought here to manage a team not to get involved in the politics side .
As you read what I said the other day, I chatted to Malky about the colour quite strongly and he stated his job was to get his players to win games .
It was up to our fans to stand up for our identity, but we won’t go in to that again as to this day I can’t stand those that accepted the despicable red

Then how can any manager be called a yes man?

They are all here to manage the team not get involved in politics.

Well the committee really made a balls up with this seasons signings didnt they?

Slade, Trollope, Harris. never had the backbone like Malky or Warnock and were def YES men without a doubt.

In what way Annis?

Did they not just manage the team and stay out of the politics like Malky? How does that make them yes men and Malky not?

Slade had to manage the team which involved sorting out the mess Ole and Malky left. That was his brief.
