At "a vulnerable adult with brain damage"?

The Magistrates didn't buy that line, did they?

But you did.

But you did.

I've never met the fella, hence the quotation marks.

Annis has evidently been put in his place by Borley at the EGM

Annis aclled for a vote of no confidence in PR, Borley says "Annis,what are you trying to prove?"

He is trying to prove he is a businessman. But lets be honest, if he had not inherited his money he would be a no-body.

I am no fan of the Ridller but unless someone has a plan for replacing him, rather than just booting him out and creating a vacuum, best to leave things alone – for the time being.

Everyone knew Saddam had to go, but just booting him out with no post invasion plan in place has led to chaos.

Cardiff City is a Multi Million pound concern and needs to be run by experienced business people, not passionate fans who happen to have inherited a few bob.

comprehensive review of yesterday' EGM on the trust website. not had chance to read it all myself yet

Phil Nifield of the Supporters’ Trust asked the board to confirm or deny if the club is currently under a Football League transfer embargo, and if it is to state when that embargo was put in place.

The Chairman confirmed that the club is currently under such an embargo and will be until such a time that the current tax situation is satisfactorily resolved. He said the embargo initially came into effect during the autumn.

Phil Nifield asked why the club was promoting the Platinum Ambassadors season ticket scheme by promising fans that the squad would be strengthened in January with the proceeds when the club was in fact under a transfer embargo.

Peter Ridsdale stated that at the time of the season tickets launch, the board was fully expecting money to come into the club in the form of new investment which would have enabled the tax debts to be cleared and the season ticket cash to be spent on new players. He said that investment hadn’t materialised, and therefore the club hadn’t been able to clear the tax debt as expected.

Alan Flitcroft stated that he wasn’t going to attempt to kid anyone and confessed that of course he had known when the season ticket campaign was launched that the club owed HMRC a significant amount of money. He said the messages the club was putting out about backing manager Dave Jones during the January transfer window were based on commitments that had been given to the board by potential investors. As those commitments were not honoured, the board couldn’t spend the season ticket money as they had wanted to. He admitted he was embarrassed by the situation and apologised to the shareholders for it.

For fuck's sake. That weaselly cunt Risdale is more slippery than a well oiled snake soaked in Castrol GTX,

Nice use of asterisks in S****horpe there.

e2a: No longer the old song Who put the cunt in Scunthorpe... More like Who took the cunt OUT of Scunthorpe... Quality chant all the same.

I think you are being unfair comparing Grimsdale to a snake. If i were a snake, i would demand an apology.

For fuck's sake. That weaselly cunt Risdale is more slippery than a well oiled snake soaked in Castrol GTX,

I quite like the man.

 

[editor]

I quite like the man.

Oh, and why's that then?

 

[badlands]

I reckon Whitts will play mid tomorrow. Ross wide. Maybe Taiwo mid too. Gerard's fine. Matthews back hopefully. Marshall back in goal too.

After a week of unbearable cardiff shittiness, I feel incredibly optimistic. Fuck knows why, but I do.

And lets be fair,
tomorrow is all about
pay back.

7-0 should do it.

who are they? please dont tell me you are poluting this thread with egg

 

[1927]

We need them right now. Think our promotion challenge has just evaporated!!

 

[Gromit]

Playing against 10 men and we still concede a goal and can't score. Things are indeed looking grim unless we can score 3 at the end here.

 

[Gromit]

It gets worse.

We concedes 2 goals v 10 men.

 

[1927]

We've had 64% possession, that was 47 % at halftime so second half Preston can hardly have touched the ball!!

 

[Gromit]

Worst still, table as it stands have Swansea pulling 7 points clear of us. We are still clinging onto 6th though by some miracle.

 

[Gromit]

If Swansea and Cardiff finish the season in their current positions a welsh v welsh playoff final is possible.

I still find this prospect both exciting and terrifying.

I can't see us scoring again this season let alone winning!

 

[editor]

Preston must love us. We're great goalscoring practice for them.

God I just found out about Ramsey. Best Welsh player I have ever seen. Please get better Aaron it is gutting
