Why Is Sam Hammam suing the club ?

[TWGL1]

Not sure why he has taken legal action against the current owners , I thought it was all settled a while back ?

How much did he put in , was it £3m of his own money ?

[Trigger]

Wasn't it something about his life presidency that the club reneged on

[stan butler]

He was given the role of President, which is historically an ambassadorial job, but afforded some privileges
Hammam thinks he should be afforded other rights like seeing the contracts of managers and players, or going into the dressing room before and after games.

Cardiff's hierarchy are 100 per cent against any possibility of that happening. They feel only Tan, his chairman Mehmet Dalman and chief executive Ken Choo should be given that access.

[Hilts]

Disgrace.

[Canton Kev]

I thought he loved our club from the bottom of his heart? Seems odd to potentially cripple us for a (to him) relatively small amount of money.

Like a bad smell just won’t go away. It seems the only people who like him are those he makes feel important.

That’s a car parking space isn’t it ?

So basically , I could borrow say £3m, live in the Hammond Hotel on Newport Rd during my tenure , at the clubs expense , rack up considerable debt , then expect it all back with interest?

Can’t be that Shirley ?

Because he's a Cnut

Hes a joke

[Tuerto]

It's what he does.

How long does it take to sue a football club?

Hammam seems to have been at it - this latest time - for years!

Edit - just checked and it is almost exactly 2 years since Sam's latest love letter to the club:

Do you think he might be a bit short of cash?

Debt is good.

According to the other board he’s a billionaire.

[The Bloop]

Sam doesn't need to be part of the club to take his mates out for a walk and to buy them a cornetto.

Ive seen plenty of claims on finances normally with my understanding or I gather before them (translated I dont know anymore than you) but havent seen anyone claim Sam Hammam is a billionaire.

We have a winner 👍👍 what the prize

[goats]

According to the other board he’s a billionaire.

Blinking billionaires I used to dream about one of them buying us travelling home from some northern outpost 30 yrs ago

[stan butler]

He's nowhere near a billionaire but if he's worth a few quid and likes football why don't he piss off and buy some other football club and leave Cardiff City alone.

[Optimistic Nick]

Because he's a dickhead. Hope that helps

Keeps trying to bleed us dry
But his little circle of fanboys crave for his return

Bloke's a ****

Derby for instance.

[Taunton Blue Genie]

Derby for instance.

And he could carry over his predilection for ovine testicles there too.
