People who were saying how condensed the league table was failed to recognise how quick it would be to drop down too.
Sure it does...Quote:

Not that I'm looking to do that but my phone doesn't seem to have that option
No need. I'll just wait for your next flounce instead. We're due one any day now I reckon.Quote:

I think he probably is.Quote:

It's not how it was. That's for sure.Quote:

You and old Davey U Turn can carry on though.
Don’t let it get to you mate. Give me a shout when you’re down next, grab a beer.Quote:

Unfortunately, most people in general doesn’t care that much as to what is really going on at the club (and you could also include matters outside of sport ) that’s obvious and those who do make the masses wary.
Can’t argue with that mate.Quote:

The football side and the business side cant really be separated though. The business is suffering as the team is crap.Quote:

Installing Neil Harris to play more entertaining football. He arguably played less football than Warnock at the time. Dalman even joked about it.
Putting an earwig on the badge. It is and looks ridiculous and is needless.
Making Morison full time manager. No experience and no other club in the Championship would see him as an option. There is a reason for this.
Making Hudson full time manager. As above.
Making Dalman and Choo members of the board and sadly retaining them.
Saying any signing that he pays a decent sum for but doesn't work out is pulling the wool over his eyes.
Wasting the advantage that was parachute payments twice and failing to establish the club in the Premier League. Despite two Premier League appearances and parachute payments still having to pump millions into the club.
Not attending. What example does it set for fans, sponsors and the like if the owner can't be bothered to turn up.
Just IMAGINE the fans reaction if the news was ‘Tan stops manager targets’Quote:

It's just we've made a few poor squad choices and that lies on the managers. We just haven't had much luck
for startersQuote:

Appointed Solskjaer, Slade, Trollope, Harris, Mick, Morison and Hudson. That's 7. In fact, I think Slade is the 3rd best manager Tan has appointed.Quote:

Mainly not having a decent CEO or anyone with knowledge on how to run a football club hence he’s lost millions through bad decisions over the yearsQuote:

Warnock had his pants down as a result.
Your continual griping certainly won't. You're just a boring bag of wind who posts the same inane rubbish over and over and over again (until you have a hissy fit and flounce off before reappearing a few months later with your tail between your legs). But hey, if continually repeating the same old tripe makes you feel better about yourself, crack on.Quote:

Somebody has had a mare here. I on the other hand stopped posting here for a bit.
As U turns go they are on different planets. Remember that when having a dig at mine.
That is the crux of everything.Quote:

Back then, I vowed that I wouldn't support the team while it played in Tan's red shirts, and I didn't. Not once. City returned to blue in January 2015. My first game post-rebrand was away at Fulham in August 2016.
In 2012, I vowed that I wouldn't put another penny into the club while Tan was the owner, and I maintained that stance for a decade. However, following the advent of Covid-19, I decided that the time was right to get myself another season ticket last summer and I'm totally comfortable with that. I did everything within my powers to oppose the rebrand and Tan's ownership, but times have changed, as has the kit.
Let me ask you a couple of questions: apart from your endless stream of tedious posts on this message board, what have you ever actually done to oppose Vincent Tan's ownership of Cardiff City? And what do you hope to achieve by posting the same things on here every time the team loses?
So after saying you wouldn't put another penny into the club while Tan was here you then did? Thanks for clarifying.Quote:

That is all.
No answers to my questions? No surprise.
