"I’ve known and admired Rubin as a footballer and person for a very long time now. He is a critical part of our team and of what we intend to do at Cardiff City in the coming seasons.

“Investing seriously like this in our talented young players for the long term is part of our football strategy and I’m very confident that Rubin will continue to push us forward. He is one of ours and he’s with us for this next journey.”

If, and it’s a big IF, he said that, it’s actually not a bad statement to have made.

If you look deeper, he’s never let someone put words into his mouth, so that in itself sends a message. Past comments have been embarrassing, although this seems to be more grounded.

Good for the club, not sure why it had to be Tan quoted with the comment although it sounds more like a BBM statement

Who says. "Vincent says " is it a club statement ?

Happy to have Rubin with us for the next part of thr journey too.

But would much prefer not to have Tan as part of that journey - rather somebody who genuinely cares about the club.

So can I check something.

When he makes a statement he’s criticised?

When he is quiet he’s criticised for being aloof?

When he adds to the debt he’s criticised?

When he doesn’t he’s criticised for showing lack of ambition?

When we win it’s all the manager?

When we lose it’s him?

When we get relegated it’s his fault?

When we get promoted it’s in spite of him?

Just checking, not defending him.

Tell you what i'll do, i'll stop criticising him when he get's the f**k out of our club. How about that. :thumbup:

Missed my point entirely.

I want him gone too. Not as much as some do granted but I do want him gone.

But I thought we were trying to be positive Pete’s??

We are literally having the best season in ages. We have tied up some of our great young talent to new deals rather than sell them on.

While I’m not gonna give him credit negativity and criticism doesn’t help.

That’s just my opinion on a football forum as I am entitled to give.

I wish he would buy your club Oxford United

I’ve never seen a fan of another club so obsessed with Cardiff City


Best season in ages this is Div 3 which he put us in


Tan does not deserve a positivity

Well apart from you being a Balearas fan.

Oxford have a very rich owner already. Indonesian. No change to red kit yet.




Show me your Oxford flag with Cardiff on it?

Do you actually ever watch Cardiff City?
