Presumably we could still free up a place in the 25 man squad by just leaving him out. We'd still be paying his wages so it would be a waste of money, but it already is!
Or can we sub-loan him to Kortrijk?

You’ve done a good job of covering all of the bases there I’d say. That said, I think the possibility of us coming to some sort of agreement whereby Hertha take him back this month cannot be discounted, but, whatever happens it looks like City (Vincent Tan) are going to end up paying most, if not all, of his wages for the rest of the season. This could mean a planned loan signing will have to be shelved, but it’s hard to feel much sympathy for them because it’s a mess of their own making.

Re: Why we’re going down?
Tonight is the ideal time (and match) to show some positive intent. Watford are no great shakes and are eminently beatable. If Cardiff City have any aim to beat the drop and find three teams worse than them, 4 points from this week is an absolute must.
Even if we win all our remaining home games our record at the CCS will look poor BUT we must stop making it a fortress for away teams!
Let's start this evening with a positive attitude and get three valuable points.

No-one will be worried about coming to Cardiff.

Chilling, I'm surprised they've dropped any points at all

What sort of fella is Kanga if he his happy to just take the dollar week in week out without doing feck all. What do his team mates think, the ones who are putting in a shift.
Show some ambition kid and have some self respect and earn your next contract. Because when this one ends no one is going to want you.

No-one will be bothered about going to those places, either. Supposedly hostile atmospheres make no difference and can actually work against teams if things aren't going well.

I’ve heard that he’s a really nice bloke who is popular in the dressing room and I’ve been told by someone else with ‘inside info’ that he’s a lazy so and so who won’t be seen near the first team again. I’ve not a clue which version is right, I suppose his alleged laziness could be down to a complete lack of confidence and you wonder if there could bend be an off field reason for his struggles?

There’s loads of employees throughout every industry who have the same view as Kanga. I’ll bet most of us on here know at least one if they work in a job with a good few employees.

I don’t think 20,000 people give up a day and pay to watch them work though, whilst they earn a small fortune….

Article in the Berlin press linking him with a move to Dynamo Zagreb for the rest of the season. Who knows what credibility it has though.

Re: Why we’re going down?
I think we can all lay the blame for the relegation battle which we look like losing squarely at the feet of Vincent Tann and his two business associates Dalman and Choo. Player recruitment in my mind has been nothing short of abysmal. Can't really see any quality players willing to come here and immediately thrown into a dire relegation battle. What a shambles Tann and its all your own doing. Nothing short of disgusting.

EVERY club signs players who dont fit for whatever reason .
Kanga is just one of those players ..He doesnt fit
We arent alone in this fact.

Another sob story tonight.
In a season of sob stories.
It's not being unlucky it's just a shambles of a squad cobbled together by the last incumbent.
No recognised striker and a makeshift left back cost us tonight.
The 3 Amigos have got us to this state of shambles nobody else and its all down to their complete and utter lack of knowledge about running a football club.
They keep doing the same things and expect a different result.

Decent performance , decent result although a little disappointing as we should have won.
Were you expecting a 4-0 home win ?

Looking at that Watford side for the first eighty five minutes and the way we've played since Boxing Day, I'd say it's reasonable for most City fans to have expected us to see that game out. I think Erol Bulut was a terrible City manager, but last season's team would have won last night's match and one or two of our other draws in the last couple of months.

Decent performance in terms of effort but City just don't have enough quality to play through teams or pass through lines. City had a bit of concerted pressure for about 10 minutes around 60 minutes but apart from that?
It's been an issue all season that that when playing on the front foot they don't really make enough clear cut chances.
Watford's defence were there to be exploited last night, slow, anything behind them and being made to turn would've caused them issues. I can only remember three occasions City actually were able to do that? One being the goal.
Drawing matches at home isn't going to be enough.

Bulut wouldn’t have gotten in front in the first place.

Re: Why we’re going down?
Last seasons side was better than this seasons.
They would have won.
If Bulut had been manager last night it would probably have been 0-0. We wouldn't have scored and triggered them into trying.
