Barrs Court Red Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 I didn't see that. But can't see why their fans are upset about being re-branded, only 3k of them were fans before the money came in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jordan Tansley Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Agreed, Whittingham is their one outstanding player, and he'll surely have had enough after yet another failure. Miller looks poor every time I see him and younger players like Mason and Cowie are no more than ordinary at this level. Not quite sure how that team made the play offs this season and I'll be surprised if they are anywhere near the top 6 next year. Cowie is a brilliant player at this level!

Brizzle Jordan Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Cowie is a brilliant player at this level! Joe Mason is also very gifted, however Whittingham is their biggest asset in terms of assists from set-pieces and open play, whilst chipping in with a good amount of goals from midfield.

Yep, just don't agree with the insinuation that Cardiff aren't very good. They are and Mackay is a very good manager. Unless there is a huge shift in their budget they'll be up there next season.

Loderingo Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 this type of rumour comes up every time they choke, great if true but wouldn't be surprised if they went out and spent millions either Also rumours that the Malaysians want to rebrand them to the dragons and play in red!

I also think they have a very decent team and a great manager, just worry for them next year if they lose Whittingham, and having lost in the play-offs yet again.

I think he'd be replaceable if he did leave them, let's be honest if he was as important to them as you say he probably would have attracted more premier division interest than he has. Not saying he isn't one of the best players in the championship because he clearly is... They'll be fine unless the Malaysians walk and they don't find another wealthy backer. I don't envisage either of those things happening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Esmond Million's Bung Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 You get nothing for being the bridesmaid, you may as well had been the fat sl*g at the back of the church. As Ricky Bobby in Taladega Nights said, If you aint first, you're last. Not really true you get shagged by the best man, in this case Brendan Rogers and Swansea.

Portland Bill Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 There fans have blamed Dave Jones for the last 3 years, they said HE bottled it. Well, he took Sheffield Wednesday up yesterday so that despels that. Just looking at there AA forum,someone has either come out with a cracking wind up about the red kit or if true there's gonna be trouble ahead!! Also I read one thread where someone claims that they are 70 million in debt now,another saying Sam Hamman's on his way back. Mind you there always saying that!

Admin Ian M Posted May 7, 2012 Admin Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 In this time, we've also had Cardiff Blues lose a Heineken Cup semi final on penalties (despite winning with 1 kick to go) and Cardiff Devils lose 4 (4!) Ice Hockey Play off finals. Unbelievable luck. I suppose we have won the grand slam a couple of times.. Anyway, so the saying goes...better to be the bridesmaid than the fat sl*g at the back of the church with the Bristolian accent that no one wants.. But clearly not referring to us as we've been f***ed on loads of occasions this past year or three. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CardiffBlackLabel Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Wales is good at being a toilet, a wet, boggy toilet! Wettest place in the UK in April was in Somerset.

reddoc Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Play off finals - LOST League Cup Final - LOST FA Cup Final - LOST No one remembers the losers..... Oh, and those 25,000 crowds - you've had three of that figure or above since you've moved into your 26,700 seater stadium. 23,000 against West Ham as well, wasn't it?! On the slide....

Nogbad the Bad Posted May 7, 2012 Report Share Posted May 7, 2012 Joe Mason is also very gifted, however Whittingham is their biggest asset in terms of assists from set-pieces and open play, whilst chipping in with a good amount of goals from midfield. In answer to this, and another poster saying that 'Cowie is a brilliant player'. Joe Mason's record at this level is far worse than Pitman's last season - I wonder if you or the other poster would say he is very gifted? Cowie played 50 games this season and scored 7, with 7 assists. Not too bad, but I didn't say he, or Mason, were poor players - just nothing special, and certainly not outstanding. I stand by that, and that Whittingham is their only outstanding player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
