    Re: Retained list

    I'm afraid so. It seems indicative of a "minimal compliance" culture at the club which runs through how things are administered and how they engage with their fanbase.

    Re: Retained list

    The EFL will publish all the retained lists in June (2nd Saturday according to their rules).
    The clubs do not have to publish the lists and can withhold permission for the EFL to publish them until...

  4. Re: Note of Online Meeting with Cardiff City Legal Advisors - 14 May 2024

    Unfortunately I can see nothing here that suggests Nantes FC owed any ongoing duty of care to Sala. I'd have thought the position in French employment law at the time of the flight would be a key...
  5. Re: FA to phase out heading for under 11s

    Sensible move, long overdue.
  6. Re: Do all succesful clubs with dominant high profile owners have directors of football ?

    Moody was referred to as "Head of Recruitment" while at Cardiff. No indication if that meant players and/or coaches or if his brief included the football structure of the club.

    Re: Fans Advisory Board update

    I can understand the Board feeling their patience is "tested" somewhat when fans bang on about stuff that's already been mentioned to them but they have either forgotten or chosen to ignore. I'm sure...

    Re: Fans Advisory Board update

    To be fair the club have provided details of the directors when they have been appointed. Caramella is a Cardiff born and bred entrepreneur with business interests in Malaysia, while Chin is a...

    Substitute fielder for Ossie Wheatley, referenced here: https://www.footballsite.co.uk/DYK/DYK22-Cricket.htm

  10. Re: Rob Phillips - Bulut has been offered a one year contract.

    The only limit on the budget to date has been FFP, aside from the clubs with parachute payments we have been spending as much as all the other clubs in the division.
  11. Re: Rob Phillips - Bulut has been offered a one year contract.

    That only makes sense if the expectation was that he would not trigger the extension clause.
  12. Re: Rob Phillips - Bulut has been offered a one year contract.

    As I understand it he came here on a one year deal with a one year extension if certain on-field performance criteria were met.
    While the criteria are not in the public domain he clearly did not...

    I spent 30 years climbing the corporate greasy pole, always enjoyed the work but hated the corporate politics. Realised in my 40s that everyone hitting 50 was being shown the door but somehow made it...

    Re: We Want You To Stay.

    As stated I was told TG was acting as a "front man" for VT. I have no information on how the arrangement came about or (perhaps more importantly) even if Cardiff City were the first club that VT was...

    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...

    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...

    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.

  25. 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...
