    I’m pretty sure his appearances meant another year.
    If he’s out of contract I agree he will move on.

Firstly, I didn’t believe any football club owner would be stupid enough to do something like that on a whim, but I was wrong. Secondly, I didn’t believe for a second that the vast majority of Cardiff City fans would willingly surrender their club’s identity in exchange for Malaysian money, but I was hopelessly wrong on that one too.

      As for quoting posts, I only quote the bits I’m either taking issue with or directly addressing. I don’t see the point in quoting entire posts if you have nothing to say about the majority of what has been written. Doing so is pretty dumb in my book.

      As for Siopis, if his passing really is of a high standard then I must have been watching someone else. As a rule he contributes next to nothing in an attacking sense and he frequently gives the ball away if he’s attempting to pass it more than a few yards. That’s the Siopis I’ve been seeing since he arrived here. But if some obscure stats website says differently and people want to believe he’s good on the ball, then fair enough.
      I thought you were never watching the city again when the rebrand came about ,what made you change your mind ?

        You thought wrong. But never mind.

              You need some balance here Pedro. Greece aren't a terrible side. They went out the same way as Wales did. The two sides f*cked up during qualifying. I think your dislike of Siopis (and the dissing he's getting on this board) is strange because I normally agree with much of what you say. As far as The Championship being this 'tough' special league; I think that's a myth. We'd be stuffed by many of the Greek and Turkish sides imo (although I acknowledge these kinds of arguments are futile).

                Siopis is a capable player at this level

                This season we have had very little input from Ramsey.....understandably , Robinson, Etete and several other players

                We look like we should finish in the top ten or 12

                I dont think that's too shabby

                  Didn't get they get in through the C league? They're a poor side for me, 49th in the world and falling. We'd get absolutely murdered by Trabzonspor and Panathinaikos but I don't think Leeds would. I don't dislike Siopis but I don't think he's great, he's a decent player at this level but one we didn't need given Ralls and Wintle are similar types. He certainly isn't a game changer and I bet he's being paid like one.

                      That's just because you have the same bromance for Ampadu as I have for Siopis!

                        Now, Ampadu is turning into a player. Where's Wales-Bales when you need him?!
