    Not quite as bad as the "west ham way" bit equally cringe
    You garnered a lot from that.
    I think you are thinking too deeply
    Anti-football =
    Opposite to what football should be.
    Get down the flanks getting the ball in the box actually attacking and winning at home. Instead we get laboured passing across the pitch using players that have no pace or ability to do it.

    No, read it again. i was identifying the term which i think was invented by the english but got traction
    by FC Barcelona and Catalan players who had a superiority complex, however, due to the popular global reach of the game it was was picked up and pushed into the mainstream by Catalan/Spanish press towards man utd (and other English teams that year) due to contrasting styles, its a terrible clique, i was hoping to give you some context to the phrase.

    If Bulut stays, I foresee next season being one of attritional mediocrity, perhaps flirting with relegation but not down at the very bottom of the table. If he goes, well, anything could happen, but the chances of relegation must be more likely. What fun.

    What is Bulut’s brand of football “pro” then? How, apart from blind loyalty, does it fire up supporters and get them looking forward to his team’s next game? Lots of teams play a counter attacking game in which they are happy to give their opponents possession, but there aren’t many that do it in such a dull fashion as a Bulut team.

    As to the original question, I think it needs to be borne in mind that it’s almost certainly true to say that some managers who might otherwise be interested in the Cardiff job are put off by the prospect of working for our owner.
