Worst thing we could do , the applecart is already upset
He's inherited some woeful players and some of the established lot need a boot up the arse
He's clearly not up to the job having said that and hopefully we can get enough points to stay up
Then tan should keep out of the way and we should search for a new face and build a new squad
Sacking Slade now will create even more panic at the club , with the fans, put even more pressure on the new manager and players and send us down
Totally agree, muddle through to end of season then see what shape we in then, too late to replace him now.
Don't agree. sack him now to stop the rot. Never was the right man for this job. I don't know who is, but Slade is way out of his depth.
I know his brief from Tan is to slash the wage bill but, he just isn't getting nowhere near enough from who's left.
at the beginning of the season I'm sure Wales Online run an article about the best championship squad ever, what a joke that was/is!
It's never too late
If we leave Slade in place until the end of the season, a new manager will have reduced time to assess the players here currently, as well as having to act quickly to bring in the players he thinks are needed.Quote:

Like a case of damned if you do and damned if you don't.
I agree, I said something pretty similar on Sunday.I'm convinced chopping and changing isn't the way forwardQuote:

It depends if Tan has his eye on a good replacement. If he sacks Slade and the club are managerless for 2/3/4 games, then you're in real trouble. He's the wrong appointment, that is obvious, but it doesn't mean Cardiff would be better under a care-taker boss - or, indeed, another choice "from left-field".Quote:

It's always going to be a risk, especially sinve the last 2 appointments have been unusual to say the least. However the way things are at the moment I would rather see Slade sacked and Dave Jones as caretaker manager.Quote:

It comes to something when Dave Jones is considered a good appointment!Quote:

Said in another thread,I'm happy to have Jones back until the end of the season and see where we are then.
Sadly we could end up with Young and Gabbidon looking after the place if Slade goes without a replacement in mind.
It's never too late to get rid of someone that can't do their job.

I do not think there is any chance of either Slade or Young being sacked, this season or next season. They were both appointed by Tan and they are both Tan's 'YES' men. They do exactly what Tan requires. League 1 within the next two seasons.
Slade couldnt win an argument with himself.Quote:

Agree. A new manager in February would give him 3 months with the squad and a head start to start the summer re-buildQuote:

Andy Legg was last night comparing the appointments of Rowett at Birmingham and Slade, who were both appointed at roughly the same time. I'm not sure if his facts were right, but Birmingham were 17 points behind us when Rowett took the job and now they're ahead of us. On paper our squad is superior to Birminghams, yet under Slade they look like a bunch of pub players. Lose our next two league games, then I genuinely will fear for our status in this league. I hate to slag off our managers, but Slade is clearly not up to the task, my only fear is can you trust Tan to get someone better in and also, who decent would want to work for Tan?
I think it's best to stick with Slade this season and hope we got enough in us to stay up, then give Slade his P45.
Remember how long it took us to get back in this division after we were relegated last time?
We cannot and should not be relegated and that means this clueless loon has to go and be replaced by someone with some credibility and track record.
Changing the shirt back to Blue hasn't fixed the illness within by any means http://www.ccmb.co.uk/images/smiley_icons/smiley.gif
What about Lennon at Bolton? He's talking about play-offs when we're looking forward to the summer already.Quote:

We appear to be watching the last desperate splashes of a drowning man. He needs to start winning and start winning quickly. From what I have seen so far I am far from convinced.
Sadly, it does seem too late, at least for an optimal transfer window. They're bloody idiots! He's clearly not up to it, but I'm not sure it's entirely his fault - the club is broken.
Hear we go,off the Tan rants ,onto another victim.
Are you made of lego?Quote:
