Nigel Blues / Nigel Harris:
I see discussion or whether to feel comfortable or concerned Cardiff are yet to make any signing. I start to feel a tad concerned.
There's time but we are the only League 1 club not to have done any deal.
The other 23 clubs have already made 84 first team squad signings.
There have been some excellent freebie signings that could have suited us too. Huddersfield are one of a few going strong.
Hopefully BBM and Team are working towards deals are we are short on experience, League One know how and leadership. Need to address this sooner than later

Playing catch up again annis same old every summer,that paul Abbandonato says we have a good transfer window every summer

My only fear with the manager is he is happy to work with what he has,
and youngsters from the academy we may have a few youngsters in on loans from somewhere, but to date no "old ish" experienced heads.

BBM o ly been here a week.
Give him a chance to look at what he has .
Most players contracted until end of June. 1 day ago

Maybe tan has said no to any signings and to go with what we've got
I have a feeling he's gonna try save as much money as possible and try to sell anyone who's worth a few million
Could be trying to recoup as much money as possible before he sells up

The majority of league 1 teams would have beat us last season. No new signings could mean a middle to bottom table finish. Nothing new tho, the club is an absolute shambles. The only hope is that Bale & Co can persuade Tan to sell, however that would take time to come to fruition. Let's hope we can produce some good performances under BBM.

100%. Plenty of time for signings and BBM needs to see what he has first. Far too much negativity. If it rains some people will blame Tan on this board!

The manager has been here a week.
He’s already convinced the board to change the transfer strategy.
We were never going to have a ton of signings yet - what did people expect?
Tue Jul 01, 2025 6:19 pm
Plenty of time left, no need to panic.
Crucial that no key players have left yet either.
Tue Jul 01, 2025 6:20 pm
Our squad is good enough easily for league one if we don't lose any more .not sure we need to sign anymore, bbm just needs to get the best out of the players already here.

That's true.

There are new signings coming in, BBM has torn up the signing list that was in place, he is going to make his own signings, that is why we are a little behind but not something to worry about.
You may be surprised at who we bring in
Tue Jul 01, 2025 6:28 pm
Is there any delay because of the potential take over I wonder? VT doesn’t want to be spending a penny if he’s close to selling us?
Tue Jul 01, 2025 6:34 pm
Doesn’t concern me in the slightest.
Early days for BBM. He’ll be looking at what positions we need to improve based on who we have currently. I would argue signing someone in the first week would be rash and possibly could sign someone who isn’t as good as what we’ve already got.
I’d also be confident in the existing squad already being capable of competing at the top end of the table.
A lot of them are young and will improve this season compared to last, they’re playing lesser opposition and (hopefully) finally have a competent coach.
No need for all the doom and gloom IMO. Hope I’m right.

Would any of them be first team players though?
Ramsey can't play matches because he's constantly injured.
Ralls wouldn't start, also has a bad injury record.
El Ghazi was dreadful.
Goutas you could argue would be first team but he was always going to leave after Bulut went.
I don't think any are a massive miss.

Cockd it up by not having any of our main players leave? As for cocking it up regarding sighnings who have we sighned to have made a cockup of it? I thought window opened until Sept but must been mistaken and its already closed!

Letting tan choose players would be a cockup but he isn't ....bbm is so you'd think he'll get it right

When Malky arrived he only had 10 first team players on the books.
People need to get some perspective.
