We all are. But YOU think the Malaysians are off, and arent backing the manager.
Or have you changed your mind
I completely think that the Malaysians have another agenda and no speeches from anybody will change my mind unfortunately. This is not a dig as Ive previously said if the Malaysians think they can make money out of it then good luck to them but the dispatches programme backed up my theory. Now whether you or others agree with me or not doesn't bother me really but as you brought me into this debate then I will continue to make my voice heard on my theory until I see different.

Is here for the fun of it? no and i wouldnt expect him to be
has he invested money? yes and quite a bit as a non controlling shareholder
would he sell? who knows thats his decision after all its his investment
however if he did so one can expect it will be above board not through some dodgy 3rd party he has too much reputational risk for that
is he here for the long term? I think so, there is a lot more CCFC into Malaysia, he wants the gambling licences in Malaysia (we have 000's of Malaysians coming to the 2 casinos in Singapore) and if/when we get to the Premier his exposure is massive through the team which will no doubt further his interests in the leisure industry
Lets just give the Malaysians time, this club is far more stable in teh last few years than it has been in my 40 years of following the City, we should remember that
Very similar to what Ive said 'I will continue to make my voice heard on my theory until I see different'.

Malky has got a small amount of money to play with I know that for a fact, but it is small.
I still maintain if we are to stay in the top 6, we need 3 or 4 more players.
Malky is performing miracles with our current squad.![]()

I also know Malky has lost several players he has wanted due to money.
