Club trying to fight the EFL legally over the decision. Peter Ridsdale - somehow a big noise on the EFL board - is thought to have supported the decision to ban the Bluebirds.
Cardiff and Sam gave Ridsdale a job in April 2004 when the bloke was on his uppers after being sacked as Leeds chairman a couple of years previously.
Tan jettisoned him when he officially took control of Cardiff in summer 2010.
Ridsdale's last match as a Cardiff board member was the 3-2 Championship play-off final defeat to Blackpool at Wembley in May 2010.
The Riddler, now Football Director at Preston, is power-tripping again, a decade after being banned from directors of a company by Companies House for questionable tax submission.
The Riddler is back and firing, though.
However, what you have to say is Peter Ridsdale has more soccer nouse than Tan, Dalman and Ken Choo put together and I am def not a Riddler fan, but he knows a lot of peoples in football and always seems to come back.

What was that deal he did on season tickets ? I can’t remember the detail but wasn’t it a price freeze for 3 years or something like that . We all renewed in January time !

The club said that all season ticket money would be used for players and it wasn't.

Don't you think a manager should be paid then?

Jules, I'm not sure there's anything 'new' in this continued embargo news?
I always read it as being partially lifted because the first payment had been made but there would be an ongoing issue because subsequent payments were already late...?
The wages of any member of staff (playing or otherwise) are a matter for those running the club and, as always, subject to contractual agreement...

Your right, I thought it was common knowledge we can only sign players on loan and frees and still had a efl embargo coz of not paying it within 30 days .
