    Keith Hill would be a good shout, he'd work well with Tan.

    Cardiff have spent 50 years in the wilderness and are now in the premier league, I would take that. However, I believe that Tan's investment is based on a 6% return on his investment - so he's taking money back out. In which case, they'll be even worse off at the end of it. LoL!!!

    Re: their fans are no better or worse than many across not just UK , but The world

    The Cardiff fans on the tube singing songs about Harold Shipman was a bit offside tbh.

    Disgraceful - yes. But didn't Barnsley fans sing about Jimmy Saville at Leeds, or back in the 80's about the Yorkshire Ripper.
    Didn't encounter any problems that day with Cardiff fans. Felt a little uncomfortable in a Wetherspoons at Baker St because, along with another small group of reds the place was otherwise packed with Cardiff fans

    Was at 7% actually - but he's supposedly writing that off in the debt to equity conversion. He's also said that the next £50m will be interest free. We'll see. I'm expecting another hostile reception for Tan today - as he got on Boxing Day. Think SKY will be highlighting it as well during their live coverage.

    Re: I seem to remember

    A football club, like any other business, should be able to run from its own "real" income (gate receipts, TV money, club shop etc). A business model which involves a rich individual putting money in is doomed in the long term, although it might buy short term success. The money goes in, and goes out to players and agents while fans get ripped off.

    Sad state of affairs indeed.

    Will see what I can do. When are you looking for it - the picture's changing by the minute so it may be out of date by the time it's on sale :D

    Haha, end of Feb for mag but it'd be good to get your thoughts before that even if it's just for the website.

    Ole Gunnar Solskjær is the favourite. If I were him I'd wait a bit longer for a better move to the Premier League.

    Back in the 80's? The idiots in the ponty end were singing about the ripper less than 80 hours ago
