Funny how some teams come up with a small budget and struggle when they start spunking big money on playersQuote:

So a club can overspend according to FFP, yet it's ok to pay the fine and have it brushed under the carpet. Sounds like a real deterrent for any rich owner.....Quote:

Now Warnock has gone, albeit 6 months too late, the board need to stop thinking of us as plucky little Cardiff. It would probably also help if some of our supporters could move on from glorifying the lost decades spent in the lower tiers they still seem to think define the club.
After 18 months of decline under Warnock we now have an opportunity to go about achieving our potential which is surely at least the equal, if not greater, than Crystal Palace.
