      It's Cardiff City that is damaged goods after what Tan has done to it.

      If you think a manager of his quality would come anywhere near your club atm it's you that is deluded, especially if it's a league one club.

          Why? You admitted yourself that we’re under no obligation to feel a sense of loyalty?

          He was out of his depth in my opinion, doesn’t mean anything different just because he’s from the Rhondda.

            It should do though. Like, it's normal for people to identify and be proud of people who have emerged from their area to achieve some success. There are reasons to defend the guy. The squad he inherited is obviously not very good. So maybe he is out of his depth, or maybe he had very little to work with.

            Maybe it's a Cardiffian thing ?? Are they generally snidely towards Valleys people or something ??

                Not a snidey thing I don't think. I'm not from the Rhondda and so unless he's competing for Wales I'm as indifferent about him as I would be someone from a town near bristol. Plenty of people from Cardiff I'd equally be as indifferent towards.

                Is he a city fan? That would possibly be a bit different.

                His skatty media interviews aside Jones seems ok enough. Big job for him, didn't stand much chance and should probably just stick to Luton when they next call on him, seems to do good work there.

                But the whole you have to support a fellow welshie I've never really understood and people then usually pick and choose depending on how far west you go.

                  Not at all mate. Plenty of my good mates are from the Rhondda and I lived in Blackwood for years.

                      I found him cringy by the end, and clearly out of his depth.

                      Sorry if it’s already been posted, but interesting insight from Ashley hones about his time at Stoke

                      Hearing Ashley Williams explain what Nathan Jones was like at Stoke is so insightful and probably explains why he has failed at Southampton as well. https://t.co/3T0aIM5vvF
