    Re: Time for protests

    This is the owner who, by his admission, has spent £200m on this club. Now, I'm no financial expert, but given the riches afforded by playing in the Premier League, that's a total balls up on his part. He has kept Cardiff City afloat, but we're only in that position because of his ineptitude as an owner and the total failure of the board.
    The above is a ridiculous post. The majority of the money Tan had to put into the club initially was to pay off the debts run up by the idiots who nearly ran it into the ground previously. He saved us from bankruptcy for gods sake.

There appear to be a group of people supporting this club who cant take a few defeats or a period of adversity without throwing the toys out of the pram.
        Good afternoon Mehmet.

          Doesn't work like that on here. You have to scrape the absolute bottom of the barrel. Find other basket cases of clubs who are run just as badly if not worse and say 'Could be worse'.

            If you think this period is a few defeats and can't see it for a club that is being run ridiculously badly then you've got more issues than it first appears.

              Exactly my point: three massive clubs who have spent long periods of their history in the top flight and have often won prestigious trophies while enjoying huge support. Still, there must be some appeal about identifying as failures like Hull or Huddersfield I suppose; I just can't put my finger on it.

                Sunderland are well above us in the table.

                Sheffield Wednesday and Derby could swap places with us in a few months.

                You'd better start throwing these club names around a fair bit between now and May as you might run out of s*** clubs to say are worse run than us very soon.

                  We got promoted twice then immediately GOT RELEGATED TWICE: I'd hate to be the owner who mismanaged that.
                  How many clubs meandering around the EFL have had a season in the Premier League ?

                  A few few including two in League 2 and one close to relegation from the National League.

                  Nearly every club within the professional game is in debt and there are probably about 30 that would be liquidated without owner intervention.

                      Loads of true fans moaned in 2013 with many oldies who had never seen us in the top flight blackmailed into it. Sacking MM was a massive mistake which we’ve yet to recover from, Warnock achieved a miracle in 2018, but you need a plan to maintain PL status and that’s not his style the signings show that, clueless. I’m not moaning, these are facts. We just need an owner who has a proper CEO, not you.

                          That sounds a bit like putting yourself into a lifetime of debt just for a week in sunny Florida

                            ..>Depends which MM doesn't it....I always have thought that the Malky years would have lead to stability...and that the reasons for his going was overblown.

                              I guess we’ll never know, but the season certainly didn’t go well after he was fired, and neither did the subsequent few seasons.
