Re: Bellamy

If Bellamy gets the job will he have Hudson as an assistant?

Also, I doubt his comments in support of Malky in the same interview will have gone down well with the club hierachy.

That's hardly fair, there can't be too many managers in the country who would not be getting stick, or losing their jobs, after six straight defeats in the middle of the season - it's one thing to finish a season with a terrible run like Palace did last year, but another completely for it to happening while there's a chance of the club being dragged into a relegation scrap.

Put him in as manager in an office. Could you work under him?

Constantly critical
Requires perfection
Very vocal
Anger issues

There would be some who would thrive under him and some would think **** this I'm out of here.

The way some people portray Bellamy is as if he holds all the cards, that simply isn't true.
Another reason, the club is in a shit position, makes it easier for him to impose his philosophy as the previous one has failed. It's not going to happen, but i do think that people may be under selling the opportunity for Bellamy.

It's a massive opportunity and Bellamy is the man after the man after Warnock (if that makes sense). Bellamy will get more time than most and expectations have been lowered. I agree with everything you've said. He was linked with the Oxford and Wrexham jobs during his time here, he won't get a better offer.

It also answers the question of whether he could do it, like Shearer at Newcastle, Lampard at Chelsea, and Gerrard at Liverpool when Klopp leaves.

I wouldn't mind him coming, it would be entertaining, and we could have a sweepstake on which player he chins first, which opposing manager he tells to ****off, and which players wife gets banned from the club on matchday.

Craig’s words not mine. Although I absolutely agree with him. The fan base doesn’t have the patience for a long, slow rebuild. It doesn’t even have the patience to let the team play it out of defence.

Bring new ideas , instill discipline , go forward with a modern outlook and style of football from the youngest recruits to the senior squad

Strip it down , repair where necessary and rebuild.

Or do we still have those for Tony Pullis?

Pullis ???? we need to move away from this did anyone see take note of his Boro era i'd rather Flynn at Newport than him.

Re: Bellamy

I just can't see Bellamy being back at the club in any form with the current owners in charge.
Think hell be back in the British game at some point, but I see him as an assistant somewhere (a bit like Arteta) before getting a club of his own.

Or bring in Bellamy with an older assistant like Pulis. But for me Bellamy and Hudson would be excellent.

Gave me some advice when we had to pass each other in the lanes on Bonfire Night about parking and traffic pile up.

He also went up on the grass verge to let me through a bit easier.

He's alright in my books.

Haha fair point. I don't know the man but wouldn't want him as my manager.... But I agree we do need a change of direction and he is definitely that.

So you don't know him but you say he's a horrible little man - If you don't know him how do you know he's horrible?
He's a Liverpool fan - what's wrong with that? If only City fans were allowed to Manage the Club there wouldn't much to choose from.

I agree, weird post. It's like he's suggesting that if Bellamy wasn't a Cardiff fan we wouldn't have got him here on loan either

Re: Bellamy

Lots were taking a massive poo on OGS (little manager exp) when he was here. You are only as good as your tools and clearly we had a pile of shite.
I think the only option and way forward would be Bellamy.

Bellamy clearly loves the city of Cardiff. He has a fondness for Cardiff City, as well. He's come here twice and smiled when we scored against him in a cup final, for crying out loud!

I'm a personal friend of his now long-time live in lover. someone asked her one evening why she was with "that horrible man" as she si the sweetst girl you could imagine, and you'd think easily hurt."
Her reply was words to the effect of "He is wonderful to me. He's the nicest man I've ever met."
So I suppose you should take people as you find them.

And no it wasn't the money talking, her family has enough themselves.
