    Re: We Want You To Stay.

    Re: We Want You To Stay.

    Yes, Simon Lim was the appointment from within Berjaya Corp (I think it was the hotels division). FWIW when TG's name first appeared I asked my Malaysian contact if they knew anything about him, the...

    Re: We Want You To Stay.

    I think you will find that the people you suggest have no background in football have the following experience in football:
    Ken Choo, 10 years
    Mehmet Dalman, 12 years
    Vincent Tan, 15 years

    Re: We Want You To Stay.

    It's Tan's business model to put in a trusted figure from within his organisation/network, unfortunately he put someone in that was way out of their depth and got the "run around" from senior staff...

    Re: We Want You To Stay.

    When Mackay was appointed the Chairman of Cardiff City was Dato Chan Tien Ghee, a long time business associate and "front man" for Vincent Tan. Little involvement maybe, but no involvement is...
  7. Sticky: Re: ROTHERHAM UTD v CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

    There is prize money on a scale according to league position, but it is not a lot!
    1st £100k, 2nd £50k, down to £7k for finishing bottom.
  8. Re: Bulut talks/delay. Is it the club delaying or bulut?

    Starbucks in Malaysia is a franchise, its only connection to Starbucks in the USA is the brand name and what it calls some of the products.
    The Malaysian operation is substantially owned by one of...

    Re: A goal made in Cardiff.

    What if he also has a house in Ipswich?
  11. Poll: Re: Would you want Bulut to stay of go

    I'd prefer a new manager with a more positive approach but aren't bothered if he stays as it means a period of relative stability.
    Polls like this aren't helpful IMHO as they can't capture the whole...
  12. Re: Why are American sports so boring?

    I would agree that one of the problems with NFL is that the clock is running and the ball technically "in play" for a ridiculously long period of time as they prepare for the "snap". It seems all...
  13. Re: Why are American sports so boring?

    I can see something of an error in your behaviour here, you should be watching the players on the pitch not the alternates/subs/reserves/special teams on the sidelines. After all I'm sure you don't...

    Re: 41.67%

    For me the more pertinent fact is that I have been bored sh!tless for 90% of the time at home matches.
    I am pleased with the points haul but that is all. Consequently I am completely ambivalent as...

    Re: Sala case

    Do you seriously believe there is an insurance policy that pays out where there has been illegal activity involved, and that it pays out "uncapped" as to the risks covered?

  19. Re: Ipswich or Leeds ? Points on the board, or go second ?

    Generally I would prefer to be playing first but given how the fixtures stack up at the moment it appears to be in Ipswich's favour. QPR still need something from the Leeds game to keep away from the...
