Gethin Jenkins

Does this guy even know what hes doing? :roll:

I'm seriously worried about the state of affairs at Cardiff City, if i remember correctly from the 2010-2011 season, he didnt have a clue what he was doing with players contracts which were due to expire, like Burke, Matthews etc....we delayed it for so long and we lost out on them.That meant extra workload for dave jones, who had to deal with player contracts, go player scouting, as well as manage the team. (DJ did manage to get Blake, Whitts and Mcphail signed)

If Gethin Jenkins couldnt even deal to manage the player contracts, how are we fans suppose to expect him to appoint a manager. With Gethin not putting Chris Hughton name forward to the board is bit bias, I thought it would be fair if all the candidates name is put forward, and for the board to decide, but they can make a recommendation which candidate is ideal.

I really do question the role of Gethin Jenkins at the club, i'm not against him, I actaully think hes a tidy guy, but coming from a rugby to a football role, I dont believe he has the necessary experience to recommend a candidate for the next manager.

A Contract is a Contract, Burke and Bothroyd both stated that they wanted to wait until the end of the season to consider their options. Matthews wanted to leave because of DJ. What was he supposed to do? :ayatollah:

Not arguing whether the player wanted to stay or not, but the fact DJ had to deal with the contracts has me more worried......I'm just questionning what is Gethin's actual role at the club, has he done anything? Apart from appearing on the media making statements, he hasnt done much in my eyes. :ayatollah:

i'm sure somebody on the forum will inform you of his roles and what he actually does, he must be doing something right but with him making decision on managers and who will benefit the club, i'm not quite sure if he is the right man. seems a good guy and might possibly do the club well regarding finances etc.
rugby is different to football but he seems to be doing alright :ayatollah:

Yes he does! It would appear that the people who don't know what he's doing are certain posters on this baord and there-in lies their problem!

When it comes to Football No. He's not a " tidy guy" either. Can you believe he banned somebody for tipping of City that a Prem Club were after one of their youth players . ????? - maybe he had a bet on it :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

It's not up to Gethin to sign him, it's VT and TG that will do the signing.

Gethin and Alan Whitely (sp?) were the ones that did the interviews, and put forward the best candidates.

I don't know Gethin personally or socially but give the lad a break, and I couldn't care less that his last job was for a rugby club. Lets just support the whole of Cardiff City Football Club in this important time of getting us a manager.
