Cardiff City relegation party

[Cooperman]

Chambers still has two years left on his deal too. Anyone want to guess some odds on whether there's a relegation clause?

I didn’t realise until recently that he was a permanent signing. I thought he was there on loan.

Even if £45k per week gets cut in half, that’s still huge by League One standards.

The number of players they've got on big money are the main reason I suspect that they might not have bottomed out yet.

If Tan dumps them and go bankrupt and lose their league position, would a ghost team be able to be resurrected in the English tier like others have done or would they have to be reborn in the Welsh system?

I think if that happened, and they had to start again, they should definitely restart in the Welsh system.

That way, they could realise their dream of awakening the sleeping giant that they think they are, by winning league after league after league and qualifying for Europe. Their promised land would finally be delivered.

Yes, the more I think about it, this is definitely the best option for them. I might write in.

Next season will cost Tan (another) small fortune.

Chambers weekly wage could be as much as the whole Burton Albion team

Nobody considering them as a potential investment will give two shits about that. If being a "Capital City" was a factor investors would be swarming all over the likes of Charlton, Millwall or Leyton Orient.

They'll be looking at a club up to its eyeballs in debt to the owner, with an extremely fickle fanbase and an overpaid and undertalented squad and trying to decide if they're worth the bother. If you had £50m to spend on a football club, there are better options out there.

You forgot a pending supreme court case which if (when) they lose will cost them further tens of millions in not just damages to the club but also legal fees

He’s awful - Spurs are the Cardiff of the top half of the PL - not done anything for a long time and the most entitled delusional fans

Except when they are rooted to the bottom half of the table alongside Yernited

What time is their open top bus parade to celebrate winning bottom of the league

 

[bakajack]

They could probably just about afford it with the £4k prize money they got from finishing last

Thats their money to buy a new defense next season. Cant squander it on a parade. There again why not. Going bust anyway in a couple of years

Going to guess that they were far to conceited/deluded/ stupid to have put relegation clauses in any contract.
Pity ramshite only signed a 2 year contract- was hoping it was at least 3 yrs

It'll be to celebrate winning league 1 title next season.

Also quite puzzling to see how desperate many of them are to see Ramsey get the managers job full time. They've spent most of the season whining about how Riza didn't have the ability/experience to manage them, yet have no problem when it's "one of their own".

Given the mess that they're in the last thing they should be doing is appointing a total novice.

I really wouldn't be surprised if Ramsey got the job mind.

This is why I’m glad Luton went down. They are far more likely to take one promotion place.

Exactly. Luton are definitely going to take one of the promotion places, so that leaves 2 places to fight for, not 3.
