9 years is certainly not that very long ago.

Loved Malky's management but just look at that table - Palace, Watford, Leicester, Leeds, Brighton, all up and stay in premiership.

What have we done wrong for so so long ?

It’s certainly not a long time ago and we had a second chance we we’re back up their but because the Club is not run professional at the top, behind the scenes, we are now paying the price.

In massive debt, squad virtually worthless and in a massive relegation battle to not go down to League 3.

Annis when I saw this, this morning, I thought:

- Palace
- Leicester (future Champions)
- Watford
- Leeds
- Brighton

Insofar as the table goes we were better than them all. We had a head-start over all of them. But due to our management (or mis-managment) we somehow went backwards.

For me Malky would have kept us in the Premiership. In Sam and Bellars we have had two individuals who excel in Youth Development. Yet, as a club, we allow these situations to slip through our fingers.

Absolutely how I felt and still believe, the fault lies totally at the Top of our club, We should be their right now.

Cardiff have led the division since beating Barnsley away on 24 November. Their advantage stood at 10 points at the beginning of February before a slight stutter allowed Hull City to close the gap to four points by the end of March.
But a six-match unbeaten run since then has proved enough for the Welsh side to be crowned champions with two games to spare.




"We've been there to be shot at since 24 November," said the 41-year-old Scotsman Mackay, who has taken Cardiff to the title in only his second season at the club.
"I'm delighted they've had the strength of character and mentality to actually sit there and be examined for so long and never be caught. That's the mark of a good team."
Promotion to the Premier League had already been secured on Tuesday with a goalless draw at home to Charlton Athletic.
That result took Cardiff back to the top flight after a 51-year absence, having failed in the Championship play-offs in the previous three seasons.

We had Malky as manager in the premier league who wasted the massive money he was given. Credit to him he took us up but he wasn’t a good manager. Finished on 87 points so second half of the season was not good at all. That would have left us 5th on that table above.

A better manager would have

A) had us better prepared for the premier league with the money they got to spend in the championship

B) spent the considerable money after promotion better

Never in the bottom three under Malky and results only went sour when Tan & Co were on his back.
Malky brought the money in.

Funny they employed Ole and Cost City relegation and £130mill .



FACTS:

Malky Record: :bluebird:

First season play offs and League Cup Final

Second Season Champions and promotion

Never relegated


Brought in more money than he spent

Malky was probably our most successful recent Manager but with his sidekick Moody got too big for their boots and foolishly started insulting their boss and that was his downfall.Surprisingly since leaving us as yet he has had no further success in Management so perhaps it was a flash in the pan? I only wish we had employed his former assistant Sean Dyche, now there’s a Top Manager keeping a small club with no money in the Premier League for 7 years so far!

Relatively speaking we spent a lot of money at a time when not many were. We crawled over the line albeit to win the championship but we weren’t in any way prepared for the premier league despite the spending.

Good grief. Bit of a difference between Premier and Championship.

Neil if you are going to try and defend your argument try and give yourself some credit so people can say you have a point. For the record without Derby getting their points deductions we would have been in the bottom three under McCarthy.

Totally the same argument. Absolutely. But yeah the bit about Derby is right but still we weren’t in the relegation zone ever under Mick. That’s a fact.

We were heading that way quite clearly though as we were under Malky.

We werent heading for relegation under Malky, Tan was the problem with his interfering! Remember Tan crowing at the time that hed got a "proper manager" in OS, that turned out well, and the main reason we are where we are. Y ou wont see it as your obviously blinder by a hate for Malky and therefor irrational when thinking!!

Well we were sliding down the table and had just lost 3-0 to Southampton. We were totally heading towards relegation.

Look at what happened after leaving Cardiff. Ole managed one of the biggest clubs in the world, Malky, well didn’t.

In no way do I hate Malky. Why would I? My point is that he ruined the best chance to make my club an established premier league team.

We all know Ole got the job at Man U because of his history there. To compare that to what Malky has achieved is just desperate. Remember Tan hammered Malky after he sacked him and Tan was a total embarrassment to us the way he went about it. Tan then paid off Ole as ole was going to go public on how Tan interfered in the first team selection.

If you want to know why we are not an established Premier club then look no further than Tan himself and his interfering ways.

Never in the bottom three under Malky and results only went sour when Tan & Co were on his back.
Malky brought the money in.

Funny they employed Ole and Cost City relegation and £130mill .



FACTS:

Malky Record: :bluebird:

First season play offs and League Cup Final

Second Season Champions and promotion

Never relegated


Brought in more money than he spent


Mick McCarthy never had us in the bottom three.


Good grief. Bit of a difference between Premier and Championship.

Neil if you are going to try and defend your argument try and give yourself some credit so people can say you have a point. For the record without Derby getting their points deductions we would have been in the bottom three under McCarthy.


Totally the same argument. Absolutely. But yeah the bit about Derby is right but still we weren’t in the relegation zone ever under Mick. That’s a fact.

We were heading that way quite clearly though as we were under Malky.

We werent heading for relegation under Malky, Tan was the problem with his interfering! Remember Tan crowing at the time that hed got a "proper manager" in OS, that turned out well, and the main reason we are where we are. Y ou wont see it as your obviously blinder by a hate for Malky and therefor irrational when thinking!!


Well we were sliding down the table and had just lost 3-0 to Southampton. We were totally heading towards relegation.

Look at what happened after leaving Cardiff. Ole managed one of the biggest clubs in the world, Malky, well didn’t.

In no way do I hate Malky. Why would I? My point is that he ruined the best chance to make my club an established premier league team.


We all know Ole got the job at Man U because of his history there. To compare that to what Malky has achieved is just desperate. Remember Tan hammered Malky after he sacked him and Tan was a total embarrassment to us the way he went about it. Tan then paid off Ole as ole was going to go public on how Tan interfered in the first team selection.

If you want to know why we are not an established Premier club then look no further than Tan himself and his interfering ways.


So the only owner who has overseen us getting to the premier league is responsible for us not being established in the premier league.

Ffs mate I know you stretch stuff but thats the biggest one yet.

Loved Malky's management but just look at that table - Palace, Watford, Leicester, Leeds, Brighton, all up and stay in premiership.

What have we done wrong for so so long ?


We had Malky as manager in the premier league who wasted the massive money he was given. Credit to him he took us up but he wasn’t a good manager. Finished on 87 points so second half of the season was not good at all. That would have left us 5th on that table above.

A better manager would have

A) had us better prepared for the premier league with the money they got to spend in the championship

B) spent the considerable money after promotion better

Basically yes.

You don't half bore me with this Tan too us to the Premier. So lets give him credit for getting us there but its not his fault we never stayed the course. Your suntanned nose is getting darker and darker by the day.

He did take us. And took us down.

Or he didn’t take us up and didn’t take us down.

You can’t have it both ways mate.

Pick one or the other.

We agree on most stuff but you have a hatred of Tan that clouds your normal good sense.
