Off topic, but thought some of you might enjoy this.

Why so many churches?

"Why don't you just go back to Pontcanna or wherever it is?"

I'm waiting for the sequel Fairwater:The revenge.

 

[Biffo]

Love the Splott film. I could have been an extra

 

[Phenotypic Dai]

WTF is going on?

3 days ago Ridsdale is talking about spending big in the window and now we appear to be on the brink of administration. I don't know who to believe.

We've gone really shit again, haven't we?

 

[strung out]

blackpool are a very good team

Sure, but if want to at least get in the play offs, we should be beating teams below us at home.

 

[strung out]

oh for sure. obviously i didn't see it, but these results happen. a draw with another play off contender is often seen as a decent result.

 

[rapattaque]

Disappointing result for automatic promotion hunters but i reckon it's an acceptable one for play off contenders.

 

[rapattaque]

(obviously i wouldn't mind seeing a win at some point soon)

 

[Biffo]

The good news is that I will be at the home game v Peterboro next month so hopefully there's 3 points there.

IAN HOLLOWAY ... "It's like putting a rusty bucket down my well that is, like taking my sister out and never ringing her up again. You don't do things like that; we're not a bad team at times."

What on earth is he on about? does he fancy himelf as the new Cantona, cos this is up there with seaguls and trawler thing.

Cardiff City are in talks with American billionaire investors about a possible £40m takeover of the financially-stricken Championship club.

It is claimed talks have been going on since the summer and a deal could be done by the end of February.

 

[agricola]

So when is the official twinning ceremony with Luanda, then?

If they join will they end up joining in with the fans singing 'where's our money gone?' like they were yesterday

'Your going to sign fuk all' was the other chant.

Just to give the people who weren't there some idea of the atmosphere.

 

[tommers]

oh well at least it isn't just us wondering where all the money went and waiting for some knight on a white charger to turn up.

 

[strung out]

tbf, i think pretty much every club in the country wonders where all the money went. we got a trip to wembley, a trip the millenium stadium, an fa cup quarter final and sold a striker for a million in the last 2 and a half years, yet we still never seem to have any cash for anything.

fair point, I was just sympathising really.

The last few posts remind me of the "west ham for sale" thread on KUMB. 1,000 pages of rumours that some American billionaire or similar is about to buy us out.

 

[Gromit]

A friend just showed me a quote from the Telegraph:

In a sport so defined by joy, following Cardiff City seems at times to offer little but suffering. Recurrent disappointment on the pitch is coupled with a wearying dismay off it, and at the moment the two appear to be working in crushing tandem.

If only Echo journos wrote so well!

 

[1927]

I wonder if this American rumour is anything to do with Mike Young, the Superted man.

If so expect new signings Spotty Man, Texas Pete and the skeleton thing.

Hope its Michael Moritz, one of the google blokes.

His mum still lives in Cardiff.

Slightly off topic, but i've just set a special enhanced double for Yakubu to score for Nigeria against Egypt and Chopra to score against the Wurzels tomorrow. Enhanced value at 7/1. Thought i'd let y'all know. I'm working on the assumption DJ has to play him tomorrow and that his boots that were on fire have cooled down sufficiently to allow him to start scoring again.

That's if he's still here tomorrow.

Indeed.

 

[Clint Iguana]

Its a well known fact that the current fuck up in the UK weather is down to the fact that Chopra's boots are currently cooler than the ice caps. If he scored tomoroow expect the snow to be gone by the weekend!

If it was American based owners who have Welsh roots i don't think it would be too bad.

Anyway right now we couldn't say no to Alan Stanford!

On the point about being shafted more than usual that is not physically possible in the case of City fans!

We're due a shed of snow tomorrow. Match'll be off I reckon.

On another note I think Bothroyd is going.

Virus my arse and all that. (everyone else who was ill had to play)

I really hope game is off and i hope they call it off early. I am not going to be able to enjoy game wondering if i am going to be able to get home. With it being a bubble we wont even be able to have a drink if stuck on the bus on way home ... and some of the boys on our bus smell at the best of times, i dont want to be stranded with them all night.

The Met Office (useless twats that they are) are saying heavy snow from midday right through till 9.

Will we have to replay it on the fourth round date?
