Title: Re: Cardiff.... Post by: @MacPhlea on Monday, May 30, 2011, 11:58:46 Mental... perhaps they figured they might end up in league 1 next season if they kept the same manager...
Title: Re: Cardiff.... Post by: Nemo on Monday, May 30, 2011, 12:00:12 Not that mental, Cardiff have spent a lot of money and missed out again.
Title: Re: Cardiff.... Post by: Wiggler on Monday, May 30, 2011, 12:11:55 They've spent a lot of money they don't have. Guaranteed they'll be back in administration again this season/next.

Them not getting automatic, QPR not getting a points deduction, them not getting about six penalties against Reading. Honestly, the scale of the chips on their shoulders...

I think the owners tend to forget that they are competing with much bigger clubs. Are Cardiff's owners really expecting promotion? Disillusional to think competing for a spot isn't enough.

I think the supporters of the 2 Sheffield clubs would like to swap with what Cardiff have achieved under Dave Jones. |
