A waste of time?

Sat May 17, 2025 7:06 pm

Anyone else think the process that we are now going with hiring Mark Allen and Wasserman to find a manager is a waste of time?

Dalman clearly said they will do all the work and then Tan will ultimately be making the decision. Tan has the least football knowledge out of them all and I get it that he owns the club but how many times has he got it wrong? Every single time. Dalman wanted warnock and every other appointment has pretty much been a failure.

Dalman said that they are going to start with a shortlist of 30. Why? We don’t need a shortlist of 30! Des Buckingham, Rob Edwards, Nathan Jones, Rueben Selles, Gary O’Neil, David Challinor, Tony Mowbray, Richie Wellens. That’s just a quick list of people I could think of the top of my head where I’d say majority of Cardiff fans would be happy if one of them was named Cardiff manager. Whether there realistic or not might be another thing but I don’t think any of the names are that out of question.

The club has a meeting with the FAB earlier this week and they advised notes would be out in 48 hours it’s not been 5 days because Cardiff need to sign off the minutes. 5 days to sign off a few minutes? There’s never no urgency with this club.


They could do this whole manager process and tan could turn around and say he’s giving it to Purse.

As we all know we are missing someone day to day running the football club and I don’t think anything’s going to change until we get one. Let’s hope they get this manager appointment correct!

No decent Manager will work with Tan so it’s not going to be anyone decent regardless of who is recommended

We are going nowhere under him his regime

Tan is an idiot…I have no idea how he has made so much money in business it just defies belief
