A perfect time for Craig Bellamy

Wed Jan 20, 2021 9:39 pm

I want Craig Bellamys footballing philosophy to be give a chance at our club not somewhere else, I feel that given time could be a refreshing success, and could be consistent from the youth up to the first team, he will forever be linked with us, it feels inevitable that one day someone will give him the reins. Lets do it now. Is he going to be worse than Ole, Slade, Trollope, Warnocks final season, Harris? I really doubt it.

Craig Bellamy (my choice) will NOT be coming to Cardiff City any time soon

Count out Tony Pulis 100% too

The only insight you need is Bellamy and Tan do not see eye to eye.

It's not a tough one to work out for most, Ian :thumbup:

Dalman should be in the phone to Bellers first thing this morning. Agree with the OP

Im not so sure on Bellers anyway, too inexperienced for whats needed atm, also not to sure on what his man management would be like as its untested, and hes had issues with team mates in the past.

Bellamy recently quoted to take the cardiff job he would need 5 years to turn it around
If he came here our fans would not give him 5 months

I really don't get all these calls for Bellamy.

Why? What has he done to show he is capable of managing this team?

His tenure with the U18s didn't go to well as there were accusations of bullying.

"He shows passion and demands hard work" well, so does Dai Hunt!!

My personal opinion is I can see nothing more than a Welsh Roy Keane in Bellamy, and that won't work.

Too dangerous a gamble at the moment.

We have a talented group of players that aren't performing to their ability, we need a manager that can develop and encourage

I would like to see Bellamy given the role.

The coments regarding his u18s is unfair and doesn't tell the whole story.

Bellamy totally transformed the mind set of that squad and turned them into winners.

The season before the same group nearly went out of the Welsh cup losing to Ely Rnager.

From taken over, he took the team to top of the league and undefeated. The work rate and mentality of those youngsters was completely different, which I seen first hand.

Now I know youth football is completely different to 1st team. For me I'm sure he learnt a lot from his experiences with that group and especially the politicis. Unfortunately he also had to deal with parents with influence

Hes worked with some of the best managers in the game, he's experienced most things in football but most importantly he's a winner.

Hes already got a relationship with Tan from his time here so how that relationship is would be the sticking point on if his appointment is even possible.

At least his interviews wouldn't be the same old drivel we come to endure under Harris

Bells has told me to my face, its a plain NO while Tan is here.
