    Re: Vaulks signs for Sheffield Wednesday

    I suspect Vaulks has had more offers than Ralls yet Ralls is acting as though he is far bigger than he is. The club needs to give Ralls a deadline to sign. I wish Vaulks every success at his new club; while things didn't work out too well for him at CCFC he might well prosper somewhere else.

    This literally makes no sense, if he had so many offers why’s he signing for a league 1 club?

    If Ralls is short of offers I’m sure he would have signed by now. He’s the one in a position of strength in this situation and best of luck to him. A players career is a short one.

    I haven't seen anything to suggest many other clubs are interested in Ralls but perhaps I'm wrong. However, there has been interest in Vaulks. Press reports suggest that Ralls is waiting to see how our squad is developing before signing. As I said I think Ralls is acting far bigger than he really is.

    Maybe more offers but I’m sure at a lower level than Ralls will have had.

    I’m guessing the club are still looking for options in midfield and if something better comes up they will withdraw it.

    A good move for Vaulks, he wouldn’t be more than a sub here.

    It's a good job you're not a detective. You'd do an awful job.

    Cardiff City want to keep Joe Ralls if they can. They didn't want to keep Will Vaulks, and there's a very good reason for that. It's because he's a poor player by Championship standards.

    Vaulks certainly puts himself about, often recklessly, and he's capable of scoring the occasional spectacular goal from distance. However, far more often than not, he can't pass the ball five yards in a straight line and he lacks composure in every respect. He can't control himself, let alone the ball.

    Decent guy by all accounts, and good luck to him. But a terrible player by comparison to most established Championship midfielders.

    Cardiff City want to keep Ralls but that doesn't stop other clubs coming in for him. Presumably you know about the other offers he has received. I don't. As both are free agents their situations are not that different as both are free to go to whoever will have them on terms acceptable to both parties.

    I wouldn't say a terrible player compared to most championship midfielders. I wouldn't go as far as to say "good" at this level though. He had his moments for us.

    I agree that league one is probably his level now, and think he will do there now

    Can’t disagree with any of that. Fine to have on the bench as an option when the games a bit stale but just lacking in to many areas.

    Harsh on Vaulks but that’s the nature of it. Hope he does well at Wednesday

    I hope that Ralls can hold out for as long as possible and gets the best deal possible for him and his family, wherever he ends up. He owes us nothing.
