With the start of the PL season today it had me thinking...
Being late 20's.. will i ever see CCFC in the premierleague again in my lifetime?
What year will it be when we next break our transfer record for a player does everyone think? Surely Robbie Keane won't hold the award forever?
Yeah me too. I was reading today how Warnock has said Cardiff aren’t going to spend silly money this season, just in case they go down.I don't understand those who are not interested in us getting back to the Prem.
Just getting there would pay for a new stadium. Don't spend stupid money trying to stay for another season or two. Then have the squad and money to be able to compete in the Championship.
I would be happy to become a yoyo side.
No & the big clubs will breakaway into some European super leagues in the next 20 years, probably a lot sooner.

after brexit will force the issue because the rules on foreign players will change to that of outside of europe. Currently being reported that 152 current premier league players in their squads would not get International clearance to play in the UK going forward.:joyful:No & the big clubs will breakaway into some European super leagues in the next 20 years, probably a lot sooner.
Then the big boys with their Premiership money will swoop for the next best probably out of the championship who in turn will nick the next best out of division one and so on. Also don’t you think this scenario has been scrutinised by all the clubs likely to be affected and that’s IF brexit happensafter brexit will force the issue because the rules on foreign players will change to that of outside of europe.

Agree with most of this, the only change i would make is that we may be happy to hold our own in league one. If it becomes apparent that is the case then i can't see the point, surely there has to be the ambition to compete at the highest level as a club and as fans.Would be good to not be resigned to losing talented players to clubs who are shit at developing their own talent because they've bought their way up the leagues. Would also be good not to go to places like Brighton and Bournemouth in damage limitation mode against their B team.
Yes it's overhyped and overcommercialised to death but if the height of our ambition is to hold our own in the Championship something's gone very wrong.
We'd still lose our best players to richer clubs. The only difference is that we'd be watching people earning £50k a week instead of £2k a week and they'd probably not try quite so hard as they'd know that theres always someone willing to pay them big bucks.
Would they develop though? The problem with the National team is that young English players are not getting enough first team games. We’d be no different to any other by getting foreign imports in to play.There’s fewer richer clubs though.
If we were in the Prem the likes of Wilson and Maddison would probably still be developing with us.
I think like most people they think it will not happen.Then the big boys with their Premiership money will swoop for the next best probably out of the championship who in turn will nick the next best out of division one and so on. Also don’t you think this scenario has been scrutinised by all the clubs likely to be affected and that’s IF brexit happens
We are now 1 step away from having a chance of making it.I think like most people they think it will not happen.
Yes we have a good academy, but only IF that talent is allowed to flourish in the first team.We are now 1 step away from having a chance of making it.
Yes some Championship sides spend millions trying to make it to the Prem. But on our side we have a very good academy. We will make it back. The question is how many years will it take.
We cannot criticise those now in the Premiership earning big bucks, it’s just snvy imo not that long ago Burnley and Bournemouth were on skid row their very EFL existence on the line, Huddersfield in the 4th division too, Wolves not doing too well and Brighton and Fulham, we could be like them too if there was the will
Who was that?Bournemouth have spent millions to get to the premier league - £15 million alone to get out of league one.
£36,000 a week for one loan player to warm the bench for 6 weeks in the championship
The finances are a basket case if they were relegated as we’ve seen at other clubs who’ve crashed and burned.
Who was that?
Kenwyne Jones?Senile moment I’ve forgotten his name. Loaned from stoke did great backward flip when scored.
