Yes, there are potentially serious issues here if Cardiff are playing or contributing towards Bellamy's salary whilst still owing so much money to so many other people.

That's the point I was making and they're not the only ones owed money. Quite frankly it is disgusting they are getting away with this, and I'd say that if it were my own Bristol City. It's nothing to do with it being Crapdiff. Even Tricky, a Crapdiff fan, has said it is unacceptable. What's the murmurings from over there Tricky? The fans must be questioning this? If last season was a gamble gone wrong, this is potentially suicide

If that's true then it further highlights how incredibly badly the club is still being run post Risdale. They already owe Hamman a fortune which he is making damn sure they repay. What happens when they fail again this season?... If I were a Cardiff fan I would be extremely worried right now. Failure this season and Portsmouth will seem like a goldmine. That's assuming for the point of the topic that it's correct

Quite. I assume that Cardiff have a fans committee that intertwines with the club in some format? I would imagine there are an awful lot of questions being asked and assurances being sought right now. Time will tell. It's a cracking signing if it pulls off and he's successful without quality players feeding him constantly. Will certainly be interesting to watch this unfold

Well, they're not all strikers of course. The weak point is Bothroyd. If he gets injured they don't have a replacement of anything like the quality. See last seasons demise from the top two and the relationship to Bothroyd getting injured for details. They still haven't brought in cover for him

Sorry, I didn't mean Bothroyd, I meant Whittingham 👍

Probably only of interest to Leeds fans and those who understand the sentiments, but this was a remarkably erudite article, putting into words what I'd hitherto not been able. No-one likes us, but not only do we not care we don't feel that we need to justify our existence by admitting it to the world.

Seems to me that Ken is spot on in his programme notes (if those in the article are anything to go by). Ken has never been 'cuddly' and there's nothing better than having a good old fashioned rant to mentally cleanse the system.

Another week gone. Another week of attempting to bring in players to cover our injuries resulting in another epic fail. We still have the same number of injuries and still no cover, so that means we go into this weekends game against Barnsley with a team of has beens, potentials and reserves. Barnsley, a team we would be expecting to beat comfortably at Ashton Gate. Instead I wold take a draw right now if offered it

David James to Bristol City. Craig Bellamy to Cardiff City. Now Edgar Davids to Crystal Palace?

We've signed Brett Pitman from Bournemouth. Turned down the Premier League with Blackpool for us, which tells you everything you need to know about them. Unproven at this level. Hopefully he can be another Maynard. £800k the fee

2 down to Barnsley after 12mins and guess what? We've had yet another player stretchered off 😂 Honestly you couldn't make it up! If it were a book it would be filed under fiction 😂 If you're a betting man or woman have a few quid on us to be relegated while the odds are still good. Yes I'm serious

Yes, there too.


I am not prone to exageration when it comes to my own team but that was as good a home performance as we've seen for years. Millwall aren't mugs, but they'll be travelling back home wondering what hit them. Seven or eight - one wouldn't have flattered us. We hit the woodwork three times. Superb.


Funny old game...

Barnsley should have 4 and could have had 5. Absolutely non existent defending from us at times. Unless there are changes at halftime, which there won't be because our entire first team defense is injured, the Barnsley will score more goals. They've missed two one on ones blazing both over the bar from 8 yards

Town winning again!    At this rate we'll have more points by the end of August then we had in the whole first half of the season last year!
