Got to feel for Cardiff fans having Malky McKay sacked.

Like our Football Club, history and tradition is being ruined for the sake of money by egotistical morons.

We really could do without these idiots in the game, destroying clubs from the top.

Spent over £30m and they are 1 point off the relegation zone. This isn't as bad as the media are making out. Even Palace have won more games.

I think it's still harsh they have signed good players and I believe they will stay up.

It's definitely harsh, but the media uproar is daft. Everyone is being pretty much told to be outraged about it. Managers higher up in the league have been sacked already this eason.

Cup finals, play offs, money to spend, promotion to the prem.
I'm sorry but I don't feel for their fans.

If I have learnt anything through the off field antics of CCFC one of them would be success isn't everything.

They got Turner and Gunny off us for a packet of crisps and a pint.

My sympathy only goes so far.

Going to their game tomorrow. I really feel for their fans. Hull's too. Not a big fan of theirs after bad experiences there but am more than happy to stand side by side with them against Tan and everything I hate about modern football. Also seeing them tank Sunderland would be good given the abuse they're still giving us and Jimmy.

Change a club's colours, location and/or name and you'll upset & possibly lose the people who are the lifeblood of the club.

Gunnarson ran his contract down. Most on here want Christie to do the same and get no fee for him. Thorn had already told turner he was no longer in his plans and was to be 4th choice centre back. Sorry you can't rewrite history to suit yourself.

Playing Devils Advocate here as I dont know all the facts but Tan has backed Cardiff massively. Would they rather go back to the Ridsdale days? Tan has funded top flight football for them for the 1st time in 50 years. In the summer they broke their transfer record 3 times and last season in the Championship their budget was astronomical. The one farce is that he sacked the head of recruitment for overspending - surely he should have had a handle on this. He has basically sacked a manager he didnt get on with - it happens in all businesses every day. Tan seemed to change his mind over the weekend and appeared to listen to the fans. Following this Mackay did a press conference continuing to moan about Tan and then again publicly had a pop at him after the match. He was desperate to be sacked and I wouldnt be surprised if he has already got a job else where lined up.

I don't feel for them in the slightest. They soon shut up about the kit colour being changed when they got promoted. Plus they're in the Prem and have money, I reckon they're ever so slightly better off than us at the moment.

I don't think fans want players to go for nothing.

But you have to look at thee bigger picture.

Selling your better players for a pittance and then no chance of promotion or keeping them and hopefully going for promotion, I know what camp I would be in the latter.

Now if you get a stupid offer then yes you will have to think about it.

As for Thorn telling players they weren't in his plans well we all know who made the decisions on who went and who stayed certainly wasn't Thorn! as it won't be SP in the end

Exactly if we had left old Tango Man on the bench we would be in the Premiership by now.

Yes it is bad. The fact is that to meet Tan's deluded expectations Cardiff would have had to spend £100m due to the huge gap between Champ and Prem.

Time to ban these nutters from English football or impose an examination on English Football and it's finances before they are allowed in.
