Source of Soumano link is Reluctant Niko, well known for tweeting on any nonsense the agents feed him.

Let's not get carried away at his two goals, as encouraging as they are. Look at the defending for the goal on Saturday, all four defenders ball watching, not a single one of them keeping an eye on the Swans players in their box until it's too late with Vipi in position, with space to head home...

Living in North Wales, I used to watch Wrexham a lot in the late 80s and 90s, but I've got to say the Disney duo are starting to grate at me a little now. I could never hate Wrexham the way we all despise Cardiff, even if the Hollywood bros win the Premier League, but it's something that I find...

Leigh Dineen would have negotiated the original deal when we were still a Premier League club, so Joma would have wanted to insert a clause to lower the value of the deal in the event of relegation, so you would have imagined Coleman would have kept such a clause doing the opposite in the event...

Let's not get carried away before the final squad for the season is known and before a ball's been kicked in anger. No point in getting ahead of ourselves without allowing any room to be pleasantly surprised.

Surely it includes an improved deal if we get promoted before 2030? Or does it not?

I'm sure someone posted on here that the rules make it easier for clubs to bring in attacking players from outside into the MLS than it is when it comes to defensive players. This is deliberate in order to get more goals in matches - because for yanks more goals in a game always = better. I'd...

With hindsight, not showing up in the derby was what saved our season and could send Cardiff down. It gave them a false sense of security, lead to Grimes' departure and thus the signing of O'Brien and hastened Luke Williams's sacking. The turning point of the season for us and the scum. They...

What I like about this news is that the ambitions the new owners have align with Modric's ambitions. What I mean is, if I stop talking in football marketing buzz words for a minute, is he aint signing up to a mid-table Championship outfit who have no aspirations or plans to be more than that...

There were many on here excited with the appointments of Russy Marts, Michael Duff and Luke Williams. Many more dare I say than are in favour of Sheehan. For me, that makes zero sense when he's proven to be better than the lot of them. May I suggest that, maybe, just maybe, some people on here...

Cardiff chants after Alan Davies' death by suicide is another one that sticks in my mind. However, chanting about a player that could possibly die on the pitch in front of your very eyes, now that is something different - that's on a whole new level for me.

What's Greame Jones doing now? No harm in asking him for the fifth time is there?

It's not just a new Manager we need. It has come clear that this experiment of Coleman as a Huge Conk style chairman, with full oversight of everything, has failed miserably. If the new ownership group doesn't want to become pariahs like the Caplan, Whatshisface and Silverstein, they need to...

Grimes wasn't Leon, but he was always available, and kept things moving. He dictated the tempo of our play, and whilst this tempo was not always the one we wished to see, he has and will be missed. I guess what I'm saying is that he wasn't perfect, but he's better than what we have now. That's...

You could argue the players aren't good enough, and to a certain extent that is true. But to lay the blame solely at the hands of the players' quality is to ignore the fact that the results have fallen off a cliff since he was linked with West Brom and the relationship between manager and...
