The next disaster is just around the corner, in my opinion. The club lost money in its one season in the Premier League, an amazing achievement all things considered. Cardiff should be one of the wealthiest clubs in the Championship, that it isn't speaks volumes for the Cardiff City boardroom and its occupants over the last 5 years.Quote:

Not in my lifetime as a fan since 1965.

Why do you have to come on here for approval.
I'd rather we'd have carried on the way we were. Those guys are here for what they can get out of the club not for what they're going to put in. Most of the revenue comes from the TV deal anyhow, and the money that another ten thousand seats would cost will be better spent ensuring we stay in the PL.Quote:

It is a legitimate question. Tan's antics have been conveniently forgotten and forgiven - Cardiff are skint and they shouldn't be. Stick to the name calling because you, sure as hell, can't debate the issues. Love is blind they say.Quote:

The important thing is the choices Tan and the suits make going forward. I'm seeing lots of signs that they may have learned from and grown from they mistakes. By all means, hold our board to account if the mess up again in the future. But I have a good feeling for now and I'm willing to forgive and forget if they get things right. Let's see. :ayatollah:Quote:
