If there is one?
More funds for the last 2 weeks of the transfer window or a guarantee that we'll keep Zohore?
I'd prefer the latter.
Nice to see him there mind, hopefully he feels he can come visit more often.

He seemed to be a happy boy after the game, happy enough to kick in a few quid in January if needed?
Or in the next 3 weeks, maybe?Originally Posted by TH63

BBC Wales
Cardiff City owner Vincent Tan insists he is not actively looking to sell the Championship club.
There has been speculation the Malaysian businessman is pursuing offers for the Welsh club he bought in 2010.
But reacting after reports re-emerged that he was seeking to off-load the Bluebirds, Tan has reiterated he will only sell at the right price.
Asked if he was looking to sell, Tan said: "No, I always say this.
"You don't fall in love with your businesses. If somebody offers the right price, yeah we'll sell.
"People approach us and we have a look, we talk. But that doesn't mean we're selling.
"If the right offer comes, an offer we can't refuse, sure we'll sell. It's business."
Tan watched from the stands as Cardiff beat Aston Villa 3-0 on Saturday to go top of the Championship table after two games of the season.
He had not been to any home games in the previous two campaigns, fuelling rumours he was losing interest in the club.
Speculation that he was actively looking to sell the club intensified in July when reports highlighted a brochure for prospective buyers put together by WMG, a company belonging to Cardiff chairman Mehmet Dalman.
However, Tan says he is committed to Cardiff and watched the win over Villa at Cardiff City Stadium, which saw an attendance of 23,899 for the game.
Warm welcome for controversial owner
He received a warm welcome from supporters, though his tenure has been controversial.
The decision to change the team's home colours from its traditional blue to red led to a fans revolt, but Tan financed the club's promotion to the Premier League in 2013, albeit for only one season.
Tan agreed to a return to blue shirts in 2015 and, after three campaigns of mid-table mediocrity in the Championship, he is hopeful manager Neil Warnock can help the club mount another promotion challenge this term.
"We have a good manager, he has made some good transfers," said Tan.
"We supported him with the transfers, but we have paid good value for money - not like the way we paid £10.5m for [Andreas] Cornelius [a striker signed by former manager Malky Mackay].
"Oh I will never forget that.
"We have paid good value for these transfers. Neil has done a great job. They are reasonable transfers with support."
I HATE c*nt with a vengeance. The further he stays away from Cardiff City FC the better!!
When is he going to do away with that shitty centipede we have on our badge?
Grow up you sad tw@t
Never , ever will I change with my attitude towards Tanny. Simples! I have my reasons. I'll go into them again if you really want. Have mentioned them several times on here in the past. I bet you were one of those sad feckers, who bought into his red shite, and even purchased and wore a red City top! Busy licking his arse along the way as he took us to the "promised land"
Red aside, every single manager has been backed by Tan. Granted, a lot of those haven't worked out.
The change to red was wrong, it was then reverted. Those who wish to paint Tan as evvvvvviiiilllll really need to get out more.
Your childish attitude and abusive comments stink. Nothing you can say will spoil the weekend after that win. Tan is the owner of our club and is keeping it afloat out of his own pocket. If that is really your attitude why do you bother following the club and commenting on here.
He made a business decision about a sport he had very little knowledge of (look at the franchising/moving of American sports with very little regard for history etc, look at the Raiders in the NFL!) which turned out to be the wrong decision. Britain is very traditionalist and obviously he didn't completely understand that.
After all the abuse (sometimes racist) he received he sought to put it right, admittedly probably a financial reason but so was the initial change to red.
I don't believe he's as bad as any of the other vilified owners like Oystons, Venkys etc and if it wasn't for the in hindsight stupid decision to change to red he would probably be the best owner we've had for many years.
He's tried to put everything to what's beneficial for both the fans and himself financially so if everyone just lets their sleeping dogs lie we can all push on for a better cardiff city and I hope you and similar fans can come back on board and enjoy supporting your club again.
Business decision. Yeah, right. It was all about the business.....
So what if people purchased a red top? I bet you watched us in the PL though, like 27000 others ?
If not then that's fine and commendable, however, your comments are not welcome and outdated.
Those who did pissed on the club's heritage and history, and fueled Tans belief he was right.
I haven't put money in his club since 2011. He can't fvck off quick enough as far as I am concerned.
Notice he is still on about Cornelius (Serie A player) and doesn't mention his own cock ups, not his own contribution to Cornelius' struggle here.
It looks like a maggot to me
That's quite hateful pal.
I really fell out of love with the club during the red period for the reason that it didn't feel like my club, and I was annoyed that the club showed a blatant disregard for what the fans wanted. Consequently, I didn't even so much as to watch City on TV, let alone go to the CCS.
When the news broke that it had been reversed, I was absolutely thrilled and grateful that sense had prevailed.
There are very few owners who support the sports club and that's just the way it is. He's a money man and has shelled out loads on us over the years.
He has the right to attend as many games as he wants but I hope he would draw the line at dictating footballing matters.
Bitterness and hatred achieves bugger all, plus there's too much of it going on in the world.
I reckon you've got two choices: Either give everyone associated with the club your complete backing and enjoy the ride, or stop following your club and take your negativity elsewhere because quite simply, we've had enough of that recently and it's time for positivity and direction.
He saw at first hand an excellent performance and felt the buzz of the crowd.
That has to be more positive than if he hadn't.
I believe we won on his last appearance which I think was against Rotherham last season.
No, he didn't turn up for a home match last season - in fact I don't believe he had watched a game at Cardiff City Stadium since Wolves beat us 1-0 in February 2015 I think it was.
No wonder...
Seeing people wearing the red tops made me feel a bit sick if I'm honest. Their choice of course, but it didn't sit well with me as in my mind they were validating Tan's decision.
But common sense prevailed and he reversed the bad decisions, we're back in blue, and while I can understand people's feelings (both sides) at the time, I can't understand the reluctance of a few who seem unable to accept that he made a mistake, changed it and move on.
I notice TLG was there again today. He said he'd never go again whilst Tan was in charge. Perhaps Tan knew TLG was coming
That's not what I said at all, but there we go. Believe what you want. It makes no odds. It's just nice to know you're keeping an eye for me, whoever you are.I notice TLG was there again today. He said he'd never go again whilst Tan was in charge. Perhaps Tan knew TLG was coming
I assure you I'm not keeping an eye out for youThat's not what I said at all, but there we go. Believe what you want. It makes no odds. It's just nice to know you're keeping an eye for me, whoever you are.
I saw you coming up the steps and I was quite shocked as I thought you said you'd never come back whilst Tan was in charge. The more the merrier. You must have been impressed.
I said I'd never support the club while Tan owns it - I don't - and I said I'd never spend a penny at the club while he remains in charge - I haven't, unless you count a few drinks at Mark's post-funeral celebrations.
Really enjoyed yesterday's game. City were impressive, Villa were woeful. It looks like Steve Bruce has got big problems there, to put it mildly.
Did Tan get the icecream out for him? Just joking.I notice TLG was there again today. He said he'd never go again whilst Tan was in charge. Perhaps Tan knew TLG was coming
