Cardiff City /Cardiff Dragons/ RedBlueDragonBirds 2013-2014, Bluebirds Unite and related chat

Cardiff were outclassed, outplayed and outsung in a game that surely marks the end of Malky. We were like a mid table Championship team. Zero passion. Zero fire. Awful.

I wasn't at the game, but watched a stream and it looked like our worst performance of the season.

All the shit that's happened this week was bound to have rubbed off on the players though. I was convinced we'd get thumped today.
 
We missed Gary Medal dreadfully.

Taylor and Whits were shocking.

Campbell played well but got no protection from the officials.
 
You can't blame the officials for that dire performance. And the streams of 'fans' leaving as soon as the third goal went in? Embarrassing.
 
Yep. He's toast.

' The Board of Directors at #CardiffCity have relieved Malky Mackay of his duties. A new first team manager will be appointed in due course.'

Not blaming officials for the poor play. I am blaming them for ruining a few rare bits of good play. Doubt the result would have changed but our goal difference might have improved slightly.
 
Glad I don't have to listen to achey breaky heart any more. /silver lining

Relieved of duty. Not sacked as such.

Will he be a gardening leave pundit like Dave Jones or will they actually stump up the cash to sack him properly?

Oh, I'm *so* glad you won't have to listen to the sound of fans daring to express a message of support for the manager any more. It must be such a relief.

And now that Tan has once again done exactly what he wants and shown that he doesn't give a fuck about the fans, the Cardiff Dragons renaming can't be far away.
 
America, meet Vincent Tan, the worst owner in sports
Vincent Tan is the owner of Cardiff City F.C., a team based out of Wales that plays in the Premier League.


Cardiff City fans do not like Vincent Tan, who is from Malaysia and made his billions bringing McDonald’s to his home country. They don’t like Tan for the usual reasons fans don’t like an owner — an unwillingness to spend money to improve the team, tension between ownership and the team’s management, etc.

They also don’t like Vincent Tan because Tan seems to be using the club much like a 12-year-old in “owner mode” on the FIFA 14 video game.

I might have a punt on Sven ,most clubs with a bit if money with owners who know little about football normally sound him out.

He's been mentioned in relation to a couple of vacancies recently, might be worth a speculative punt, but anyone who actually employs him must be completely ignorant of his record and the Premiership... Enter The Red Dragon - Vincent Tan. :p

I doubt if I'll ever set foot in the place again while Tan is still trashing the place.

Sadly, as with practically every other club, I doubt enough fans would stay away to make a serious impact.

I would absolutely love it to happen, I think it would be a great moment for football fans of all teams, I just really doubt it would. Live and dream, eh?

Whilst it would impact on the atmosphere, with 24,000 + season ticket holders - finanically tan would not really give a toss.

Aye, fair point. Might start something at least, gain a bit of support and momentum.

Other clubs could run an "adopt a Cardiff fan scheme" where they go to other matches in their Cardiff gear :D ;)

It's a lot more complicated for Cardiff though because any new team would have to either play in the Welsh League or physically play in England to compete in the English pyramid, and that's what stopped the earlier effort - no one could agree.

Personally, I'd see no point at all in playing in the Welsh League.
