The MEETINGS MAIN POINTS

Re: The MEETINGS MAIN POINTS

Was it just the coach drivers invited to this call Tone or any average fans

Trust, Supporters club committee, Disabled, and travel club members. Plus press

Re: The MEETINGS MAIN POINTS

An e-mail to Trust members is the way to do it, not by posting on CCMB in the hope that we see it. One of the Trust's core USP's as part of membership is to give members a chance to get their questions to the CCFC executive.

Sad to say the Trust is going the same way as the Club....no long term plan....and if there happens to be one then share it

I'm not a member of the trust, if that is directed at me.

Re: The MEETINGS MAIN POINTS

Sorry to be dim here but the director of football question - is that them saying we're going to get one and you saying WHY because you disagree with it? Or was the question about getting a director of football and they replied with WHY because they say we don't need one?

As you say, you knew there was going to be a meeting, but as usual no communication to ask if the opportunity arose what questions do members want raised. An e mail to members would have taken as long as it’s taken to write this response.ie minutes.
The members deserve better.

The way the Club is run really leaves much to be desired.

So a, 'meeting,' was deemed needful with the Club's fans. I wonder what prompted this vital transformation in thinking from those in the corridors of power. It couldn't be a WoL article, could it? Secondly, what were the qualifications to deem those invited worthy of admittance to this meeting?

Clearly the worthy are of far more importance in the eyes of the Club than Shareholders of the Club who are ignored. I'd write to the Club but there's no point. I'm still waiting a reply to a letter I sent 5 yrs ago.

Re: The MEETINGS MAIN POINTS

On the Isaacs case, it is incredible that someone purpotedly from a finance background has got this wrong. Isaacs owned more than 2% of the club before his shares were diluted. His claim is, surely, that his shares were worth £10m at the time that he owned 10% before Tan then diluted them to take control of the club. He isn't claiming the club is worth £500m. He is claiming that his shares were worth £10m before Tan devalued each and every share he owned by bringing out a new share ownership.

On the Sala case, the guy was on a plane ready to come to Wales to play a game within 48 hours. Are the club saying he wouldn't have played that game at the time? And didn't the club say that "once a bluebird, always a bluebird" at the time of huge media attention?

It's much deeper and more complicated, than your 2nd paragraph, about Sala.

Re: The MEETINGS MAIN POINTS

Did Mehmet Dalman explain the 6 month contract for Mick McCarthy?

What are they expecting to do in the summer? What are they doing between now and then to prepare for that decision?

Is it a case of MM winning a longer contract with performance, or are they looking to bring in a manager for the medium and long term?

Or is there no plan?

It's 6 months

It depends on where we finish and what both parties want.

Is it a case of MM winning a longer contract with performance, or are they looking to bring in a manager for the medium and long term?
It's a possibility
Or is there no plan?

You sound like BLACKADDER

The plan is to avoid relegation

Good plan .

It's their words not mine.

Although, I think a DOF, is a complete and utter waste of funds. What ever happened to that one Spurs had, who recommended all those donkeys (i apologize to all donkeys)

The trust statement

https://www.ccfctrust.org/cardiff-ci...ups-and-media/

"MD freely admitted that they did not but the appointment of MM would buy them time to put one in place"

"When the possibility of bringing in at board level a Director of Football with significant experience MD was lukewarm about the idea."

This is bad.

Firstly, the people who will put this strategy in place over the next six months (what have they been doing for the last 5,6,7 years) is Mehmet and Choo. Two people who do not have the knowledge to carry out such a task. Or at least that's how this reads.

No DOF. Personally , I think that is exactly what they need considering the amount of managers that go through this club.

At least we have some crumbs of info.

Presumably both options are open at this point, but I do wonder if they've penciled in end of season interview with Mick to see what he wants to do next rather than just giving him the job if he wins more games than he loses.

There seems to be a greater commitment to youth now. About a year ago, pre-covid, there was a headline considering to upgrade to Cat A Academy status - is this still part of the plans and when can we expect the next step in this process to be taken?

From the outside, it appears that the squad lacks balance with some positions stacked with options (Ralls, Vaulks, Bacuna all being similar) and others seriously lacking (lack of RB cover, lack of fast and mobile midfielder who can pass). At the same time, long and presumably costly contracts were given out with expensive fees paid when coming down from premier league but that squad has now twice hit run of form that has seen two managers sacked/effectively sacked. If transfer committee is working effectively, what lead to these two scenarios and what lessons have been learnt?

Brexit means that number of leagues that new players can come from has been reduced. How does that effect us? What is our scouting system based on?
