Since the 2014/2015 season, the coach and coaching team with the highest winning percentage at Cardiff City has been Erol Bulut and his coach staff, with 41.67%
Hope we get the Erol Bulut we want you to stay chant ringing around the ground today he deserves it
who can argue with facts like that in the last 10 years
Definitely.
By all accounts we were on the verge on bringing back SM before Bulut was recommended. Whatever your opinions on SM, such a situation arising is laughable and yet entirely predictable with Tan.
I will have no faith in a suitable replacement being found which seems will be needed given we are now well into April.
Whatever the opinions on style of play the club can't grow on employing managers for 12 months or less. There needs to be some consistency.
The fact we still don't know for certain if Bulut will be here (I'd assume not) at this stage of the season is such a ridiculous way to run the playing side of the club. Beyond a joke really.
It's also incredibly close to the most important number in the universe.
Come on Vinnie, make an announcement so we can start arguing about something else.
(Probably whether it was the right decision or not, to be fair.)
The established method would be the same for win and loss percentage, no? Or doesn't that suit your opinion?
The win percentage is obviously positive, but people are not moaning about that are they, its the style of football and lack of opportunity for youth I see most people bashing him for.
I am currently listening to the last 10 minutes of our game from last week, the brilliant thing about the club website is that they replay the full 90 minute game https://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/video/player/0_xahhemv7
So far from the 80 mins mark ive hear a single chant which lasted a few seconds around the 83.45 mark. Currently on 90.05 and nothing since..the Rubin Colwill chant was louder after he skinned the 2 soton defenders
95.30 and still nothing more. Does it come after Ashford scores and we are winning? Probably just adrenaline and excitement? Surely if the fans were big on it they'd have been singing it before the winning goal? Approaching 100 minutes and heard nothing else since the 83rd minute? oh hang on another single chant in 102.30 dies out as quick as it starts. You had me under the impression it was reverberating around the ground for prolonged periods. Final whistle at a 106 minutes. Heard nothing else. It's there for anyone to go back and listen to. Why lie Mozz?
You know what else is positive? Wanting to bring through youth at the club and hoping to see a better team on the pitch.
Disliking someone's football philosophy (feel dirty calling Bulutball a philosophy ) isn't being negative, wanting better for the club isn't being negative. If thats the narrative you want to spin then crack on, having a different opinion isn't being negative
In terms of league games, our win percentage this season is 42.2%. That's a good figure and our fifth best at this level since 2003. In terms of other stats, I don't find many that are positive and make me think that we can push on from this season next year.
21 defeats is the 6th highest at this level in our history. 14 of those defeats have been by 2 or more goals, the highest in this division in our history and third highest across all divisions. Only on 4 other occasions have we finished in the top half of a division and conceded more than we have this season. We have conceded 3 or more goals on 9 occasions, the highest in this division since relegation in 1985. Only 4 times in our history in the second tier have we won fewer games by 2 or more goals. If we fail to beat Rotherham next weekend we'll have the joint worst goal difference in league history for a team finishing in the top half. I could continue with several more.
Yet somehow, despite what are a raft of stats that are quite simply poor, we've managed to win as many as we have. I'm not suggesting we haven't made some progress - in terms of the league table we certainly have, but do I believe Bulut could take us up another level next season given we'll hardly be spending lots in the summer? I don't.
Mozz, you gonna respond or just keep making new threads and accept that you're a liar?
