FAO Cardiff City Board

Give us a late Christmas present and sack the excuse ridden pathetic excuse of a manager that we currently have in charge.

At last even the ones slower to see how bad he is (I need mention no named) are starting to turn.

The team performances are as bad as anything since promotion to the Championship. I enjoyed watching the team who scraped championship survival with a 1-1 draw at Gillingham more than this.

We have not improved under this man and need something to at least shake this season up and give us something to support going forward as the stale, error ridden, awful performances are showing no sign of stopping. We are going backwards. Stop the rot and sack the fraud.

And important media folk

Time is up mr Harris board please get in a forward thinking manager not the CHEAP OPTION BILLIC, PEARSON, OR GO FOR IT EDDIE HOWE FANS DESERVE BETTER THAN THIS

Paul Cook is made for Cardiff City in my humble opinion. Straight talking, no nonsense but wants his teams to play decent football.

If there is limited money, this is where it should go FIRST. A good manager. Bilic, Pearson or Howe are good shouts.

Dalman should be on the blower to him now.
Give Harris and Livermore their P45’s

Paul Cook breaks his silence on why he resigned from Wigan Athletic -

He left from his role as manager after the season finished, having led a daring bid to preserve their Championship status even with a 12-point deduction.
But a 1-1 draw against Fulham on the last day of the season, coupled with the points deduction, sealed their fate.

Cook admitted he was close to resigning two days before the Fulham game - the last of the season - after being informed a fee had been agreed by the administrators to sell Kieffer Moore to QPR, without his consent.

People mentioning Howe are only going to be disappointed. We would not attract Howe so it's silly to mention his name. Same for Bilic. These managers will wait for more suitable jobs.

Do you actually think Howe or Bilic would come to us? And that we would approach them in the first place?

Get Dai Hunt in there to sort them out

Paul Cook

What has he ever achieved that make should think he's capable of taking this job ?

Hes a lower league manager who got relegated in his only season at our level

Who would your (realistic) choice be thomasblue?

Are West Brom any bigger than Cardiff ?

Bilic went to them in the championship why not Cardiff ?

Eddie howe is the big name but it doesn't seem many premier league clubs are biting at his heels to sign him. Multiple jobs have come and gone without his name being mentioned . He may well need a big championship club to rebuild his reputation

Can’t see Harris going, and think the board will be patient. Some players need to go before him, they hold responsibility for doing their jobs, and they ain’t. Same players every week.

So why keep picking the same players each week then?

In comparison to cardiff then yes a huge difference .

Albion was one of the 12 founding members of the Football League in 1888, the first professional football league in the world. The club spent the majority of its existence in the top tier of English football, where as of 2020–21 it has played for 82 seasons. The club has been champions of England once, in 1919–20, and has been runners-up twice. Albion teams have reached ten FA Cup finals and won the Cup on five occasions. The first win came in 1888, the year the league was founded, and the most recent in 1968, the club's last major trophy. It also won the Football League Cup at the first attempt in 1966. The club's longest continuous period in the top division spanned 24 years between 1949 and 1973, and from 1986 to 2002 it spent its longest ever spell out of the top division.

Personally I think it would be Bamba temporarily

But I think we could easily attract any number of managers depending on how ambitious we are.

The big names would take a lot of backing to attract but its possible with the right offer

Eddie Howe
Roberto Di matteo

You have the merry go round managers who would all take the job

Mark Hughes
Slave Bilic
Tony Pulis
Martin O'Neil
Nigel Pearson

Or they could look outside the box and take a gamble on a foreign coach along the lines of

Clarence Seedorf
Patrick Viera
Jurgen Klinsmann

Teams like Derby and Leeds have managed to attract big name foreign managers in this league so why not us ?

It all depends on how ambitious the board are in reality.

I'm sure a manager like Bilic cares more about what the club did in 1888 than he does about the last 10 years or so and job the club is right now.

Its all about now not 100 years ago and at the moment the size and pull of the two clubs is very similar in pretty much every way.

Both yoyo teams
Similar expenditure on players
Similar size grounds
Similar size fan base
Similar financial muscle
Both have decent squads with potential

It's worked out well for Derby.

It's worked out well for Derby.

It worked out well for Leeds though . 50/50 gamble is surely better than 100% failure in keeping Harris

Warnock might be available, his side lost to Manager-less Sheffield Wednesday and he had another yellow card, any takers for our bigger ever Yes man?

Harris has to go. Use this time now for the new manger to work with the current squad and apply changes for next season.

How the board selects the next manager is the problem.

2 good appointments since Dave Jones. MM & NW both looked exciting appointments from the start.

Bellamy is a risk but an exciting appointment and would get the fans backing

Paul Cook did well at Wigan maybe Sheff W will get him first.

No chance of Eddie Howe

We won't pay Slaven Bilić wages anyway. His WBA squad was far better than our current squad and he spent a shed load of money on Zohore which I think we were all in shock over.

Not sure on Nigel Pearson he would definitely rock the boat.

Maybe a proper search, a man hunt for the best manger available. Pay the money if they're currently employed and not a cheap yes man would be a good start.
