How on earth can a club like CCFC be in this division ?
Honestly and with no bias or malice …..it is true that Tan and his cronies are simply poor poor poor …..and are not fit to be running this Club .
Restricting our pleasure to beating Burton , Crawley , Doncaster , Exeter , Stevenage etc….is shameful for the Bluebirds . How low have we gone …..?
Tan has had 15-16 years . Fxxk that .
Fxxk this situation . Picking on minnows is what we are left with ?
What a shame ….I am really angry ….and will neither forget or forgive

I was really angry when we got relegated.
It was unacceptable that this owner had taken us from the the PL to League One. But I wanted him to go long before that and still do, due to the constant mismanagement and poor decision making at the very top.
But now I've come to terms with relegation, there is a real chance we can use it to our advantage.
We're not going to spend like Birmingham did. But what we do have is a manager with a clear identity that will hopefully take us back to the Championship with our good young players and put us in a better position than we have been for the last few years.
I'm now looking forward to it.

I think we all know that no club is immune from a spell in the doldrums Annis. In recent years Sunderland, Leicester, Leeds, Forest and a few more have been in this league, and go back a little further and a few of us will remember Man City being here. We can also remember dropping into the basement along with Wolves during our real lean times.
So no matter what we think of Tan we still have to support our club, supporters will be here long after the board have gone. 1960 was my first game at NP and it's been in my blood ever since, can't wait for the new season to start so let's get behind whoever takes over and show the world we are not done yet.

This is where i am as well. The players we lost didn't contribute much and took a hefty slice of the required salary reduction with them. I am expecting CO'D & CR to move on and neither work in a 433 if Salech stays (i believe he will).
I am not expecting many incoming, so they should be able to get on with pre-season without much disruption.
We are here because of Tan
We are led to believe Tan didn't have much faith in Bulut; he took his time to renew, but my guess is he listened to the "we want you to stay" chants and dithered. That lack of faith increased with the club insisting on a UK being part of his team, so Riza appeared as attack coach with the most defensive manager I have witnessed. We had a tough start, and the doubt intensified. Bulut got sacked, took his small team with him, so we were left with the attack coach, a U23 manager, and a guy who put the cones out. The players lost faith, confidence and the rest is history.

Annis, I am still fuming. I need to move on! I’m like a bear with a sore head, it was so avoidable, you could see it coming, horrific decision making starting with Buluts extended overdue stay. Riza was ridiculous, Rambo on a hiding to nothing in our 125th year, a year we all want to forget. But the players, up at Sheffield walking over to us clapping, some with perfectly clean kits and unruffled hair. We were relegated with a whimper. Bottom of the league! And yet there was supposed to have been a review two years earlier when we were technically relegated. Tan and his minions are utterly useless and deaf to good football advice

In total agreement with Annis.
Whilst I'm over the shock of relegation, the anger remains. As others have pointed out, this relegation was completely avoidable.
Going over old ground here, but the bitterness remains and the damage is done.
The telling thing for me was Dimi's interview spelling out the fking apathy and relaxed attitude amongst the staff and players. And that was because of cheapskate managerial appointments - the warning signs were ignored.
People like Purse fking smirking and laughing on the bench as we kept on losing! I don't want any more tin pot coaches at our club who don't give a flying fk about City, just there to pick a wage up.

The deadly double of Tan and Riza.

Absolutely, Division 3 as it used to be known,I also can't see us going straight back up with these clowns in charge.

I find it almost embarrassing.
When I recently went on holiday and when talking about football to people admitting I am a Cardiff City fan.
There reaction after a few seconds of silence was.....'never mind!'

Is crap as it is, no club is too big to go down.
We have to use this time as an opportunity to regroup. Build a team that is together with confidence and purpose to try and go back up and build on that.
We have a top level stadium. We have a top level academy. We have access to and are looking to build a top level training facility. We need the direction and a team pushing on with hungry quality players.

If Tan had not been so stubborn and sacked Riza when he should of had then we would still be a championship club today.
This relegation is all down to the pathetic little man we call the owner and nobody else.

Tan and his mates are responsible for the mess they have created.
