“We’ll only let you pass if you get a result this Saturday!”
Eric, one of my Dad mates who’s a red shirted Scouser followed up with:
“You bloody Evertonian”
They all had a laugh and my Dad even got me his autograph. DJ tees off (very good with a golf club apparently) and continues his game. As Dad and his lot were finishing the 18th hole, they hear a car toot its horn and see DJ leaving in a Range Rover, who gave them a wave.
Say what you want about DJ as a manager, but he is a decent human being.

On the days DJ does some of the training DJ goes in a golf bug to the training while the rest walk. Rem training only lasts about 2 half hrs a day. hmm

Lets stop slating and get behind the lads

No Jack as Burtons does all the training at the training ground, BUT NO ONE BUT DJ HAS THE FINAL SAY ON WHO PLAYS and WHAT POSITION THE PLAY.

I have Annis. So he doesn't take training everyday, that's why he has coaches.
I don't care that he has his car valeted or his PA fills his car up. Do you know that he doesn't watch vids of the opposition or talks tactics with the other coaches during the day other than these 2 1/2 hrs?
I know he is on stupid money for the job he does, but does every manager just sit at home after training (If they do that every day) and study the game 24/7? I don't think so.
Rhodri has said something decent about the man and then it decends into DJ witch hunt.

How can I praise a man when theres nothing to praise him about
I will say this, he knows how to keep his hands warm during matches
Some of the DJ fans are getting rather touchy, please can you give us some positives about him![]()

No one is asking you or anyone for that matter to praise him. Rhrodi has told us that his old man met DJ and the bloke was decent.
Then for everyone to suggest that he should be eating, sleeping, shitting football is just pathetic

If you must know Annis, the first Cardiff City match I ever watched was on my 20th birthday, August 8th 2009, Cardiff vs Scunthorpe. Not only was that my first City game, it was my first football match. 9 months later, I was queuing over night at CCS for Wembley tickets and buying my first city shirt. Now I proudly drink from a Centenary jug, sing Cardiff chants while in the shower, file away my match day programme and ticket after each match and I'm proud that this season I've yet to willingly pass the opportunity to see a game (only illness and work stopped me from going to Burton, Doncaster, Coventy and Watford). Now I'm considering a season ticket and/or away membership for next season. I'm a new generation Cardiff fan and I owe to the achievements of David Jones and his Barmy Army. And CCS.
