I actually think this will be a slightly biased vote because the majority of the board will vote in favour of updates. It's only a minority of posters (some from mmb) that usually oppose it. I shall vote in favour myself though mate. :ayatollah:

I can't think of any good reason to have a problem with them.

The way I see it, some people are just jealous that there are people who are in a position to have some inside knowledge/at least have a decent guess about what's going on within the club.

If people can't understand that these updates shouldn't be regarded as hard facts then that's their problem.

Should not be biased in any way Craig. You either agree or don't and TBH the only one's that read them is members of this Board. So we are the only one's that Matter. If you come on just to read his updates then you must like them or are here to cause trouble.

Perhaps we should make it you have to be a member to view this site. And is there a way of you have to register with your real name with your Email address. So if there is any abuse then they know they can be contacted.

They are not damaging to Cardiff City at all IMHO
Keep them coming

So far a Massive 90% agree with Carl's update. No suprises there then :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Re: " Carl's Updates /Gossips POLL "

I have nothing against anyone posting rumours or snippets of info they may have heard. What is damaging is the source of any info coming from within the club. Clearly a professional organisation should impose strict confidentiality clauses in staff contracts. I can't believe Cardiff staff contracts are any different, so it's disappointing staff within the club appear to be breaching these contractual obligations seemingly with impunity.

It seems in many instances rumours could be deliberately leaked, but it's unclear who if anyone benefits. I run a business myself and would be pissed off to the extreme if any of my staff leaked confidential info, especially relating to finances or contract negotiations. Not on! And someone needs to be brought to task.

I voted in favour of the updates by the way. I just have strong opinions about disloyal staff.

I enjoy reading them and take a lot of it with a pinch of salt. The snipers and people having a pop need to chill out and look whats going on in parts of the world. I mean we had info and updates in the 80's through the medium of fanzines. This is just another way of keeping the fans in the loop. Keep it up :ayatollah:

Re: " Carl's Updates /Gossips POLL "

Wed Jun 29, 2011 7:38 pm

I might disagree with someone inside the club feeding inside info, but I still like hearing the club gossip the same as the next man

Re: " Carl's Updates /Gossips POLL "

Wed Jun 29, 2011 7:38 pm

I have nothing against them (the updates) in principle but when it comes to certain info' that could jeopardise player transfers or potentially have a negative impact on player morale then I think that carl should think long and hard whether to include the 'info' or not.

Hence my posts on both boards about "Knowing a tomato is a fruit but wisdom is knowing not to put it in a fruit salad"

For all i know Carl already wrestles with his conscience over certain things he hears before making it public/or not as the case may be.

Its still my opinion that Carl, Annis, Daya, Topcat, know an awful lot more than they put out but don't for the good of Cardiff City FC , Also there sauces have requested that certain info is not passed on.

It is a fine line.

It's also bloody worrying that our club has so many leaks !

My only other thought on the subject is that if word gets around amongst footballers generally that CCFC are the sort of club that has a regular gossip column on an internet messageboard based on leaks from people close to/within the club it could potentially deter decent players from joining CCFC. They might very well think "f**k that !"

Do you think for one second we are the only team that has a message board :?: Take Stan of QPR he is a man in the know within his own club. So we are not alone welcome to the 21st Century

Of course not mate but how many clubs have a messageboard with a regular section publicising detailed info' leaked from within the football club ?
