We want Jay Bothroyd

Insults?? Are you not on your rivals messageboard at 9am?? Ok, I may have resorted to somewhat of a jibe whilst playing on the Swansea stereotype earlier, but come on, you should come to expect that, IT'S A CARDIFF BOARD. I offer no apologies for Jack baiting on a CCFC board.

And also, where's the debate?? You're not bidding for Jay so that's not debatable, maybe it's that we're a bigger club than you. Well, thats not debatable either really is it??

Says it all about blackswan when every post that points out that Swansea havent actually bid for Jay he chooses to ignore.

I don't think it's his fault mate, it's the education in Swansea. I don't think he can read, he just notices words he knows like "PEG" and "HEATHER" and "CARAVAN" and "SISTERFUCKER" and jumps on those posts!!

No offence, Blackswan, just a bit of friendly banter!!

ive heard it all know
thats better than a soap opera headline

yer hence why he "had to go"

you know they read this board more than thier own teams board, sad really

Apparently the story is that other clubs including Swansea think that we are so desperate for cash that they will put in offers - also backs up why Newcastle thought they might get Chopra on the cheap

Swansea have no where near the cash they would need to buy Jay and that has come from my counterpouts down the motorway who I am frienly with !!

They thought that pistol pete might be so desperate we would sell - Believe me we are a complete laughing stock and they are taking the piss !!

What and we wouldnt do the same to them, with the tables turned? Joe Allen , Bodde and Pratley. I would steal them from the Jacks on the cheap if the shoe was on the other foot.

Let Jenkins have his 15 minutes of fame. What harm does it do. In fact its a positive because we have told them , grow up and come back when they have something serious to discuss.

It also shows that we will not let anyone take the Piss.

All good for me . now get that Tax Bill paid and get in the 4 players you promised Mr Ridsdale!!!!!!

Not sure why City fans are getting annoyed at this.

We're BROKE and need money NOW.

And Swansea are in a higher league position that us.

Sorry, but it's true. I'm a City fan, but a realistic one.

What Huw Jenkins tried was fair enough. Just like Cardiff City try getting players on the cheap too (including Gibson from Man Utd a couple of months ago )

Fair enough if it was a poor offer (even though City try the same), however we do need the cash. £2m up-front is probably something that Ridsdale would have accepted.. and run hid away from all City fans for a few months!

reading the posts i dont think anyone is annoyed about it as such, just that the fact is they (swansea) havent put in a bid so Balckswans post is a pile of crap.

Swansea could only just about afford his taxi fare from Cardiff to Swansea.

Ah okay, fair enough. Yep, it seems to have just been an enquiry... according to Ridsdale

No seriously...

You can have Jay of course, £2m up front, plus Pratley and Britton.

Interesting, where is Swansea's money from?

Play with one up front, there is Trundle's loan fee, spunked 500k on Beattie, Dobbie out of favour, another 564 strikers there... players in their squad, for all the vaunted football aren't being chased by teams, meaning they've a first team squad of what, 35?

Lowish attendances... all raises the odd eyebrow, though of course they aren't in the shit we are.

I mean, the Trundle sale prevented them making a loss that financial year; sure they've got money for Martinez and Scotland, but I'd wager good money most of that will be dependant upon Wigwam staying up.

Interesting times.

And indeed, dont the Jacks owe the council money on the Vetch? Quibbling about policing costs too?

Yet looking to get players in without selling...

Still, when you know you can get away with 5p in the pound

its a sign of the times when we're now in a position to bid for your best players i guess

110% you havent even made an offer for him, Blackswan I have come to like you on here, but Jenkins is no better than PR.

What would be the point anyway,they have at least 3/4 strikers at the mo and only play 1 up front

funny thing is though i can see Jay in a Swans shirt and i dont think he's the type of character to be all sentimental towards Cardiff.

Also there's no way Villa would want him when they have Carew,so i think its safe to exclude that deal.

Ridsdale has priced him at 3m which is laughable but who can blame him in this moment of time.Im sure if we bid 1.5m,and when the dust settles and the transfer window edges closer to its climax then the Fiddler might well give in to SCFC's cash.

Interesting

f**k off blackswan you clown, and start living in the real world,which the majority of this board know is BLUE,, BLUE BLUE

We had more chance of getting Ronaldo, you dozy jack..............

I knew full well that Bothroyd wouldn't be joining us as soon as i read the article at 7.53am this morning.

But what kind of 'rival' fan on here would i be if i didn't propose the poisoned apple?

Provocative posting is what these messageboards are all about,surely, and 40 odd repostes is a pretty good return i reckon

And i'll never get personal or resort to personal insults regardless of how Ben feels of me using his extended name

It's an alternative from the humdrum of Ridsdale is a deviant

Here's Jay's response.

Better luck next time.

Jenkins was just being a cock - 'look at me, i'm trying to nick Cardiff's players on the cheap' . F'kin pathetic.
No matter how much of a joke we are in this the comments from Jay and Jones show our club to be far more professional in this. Running to the papers after making an enquiry being told a price and then collapsing with a heart attack really isnt very convincing.

http://www.cardiffcityfc.co.uk/page/New ... 35,00.html

Looks like Jay has put him in his place.


If Jenkins could learn to keep his mouth shut. But every time it looks like the way your club is being run is better, he blows it by behaving like a 10-year old.

A bit like your fan-base he's more interested in what goes on in Cardiff than he is at his own club.

Ironic thing is, if you hadnt just wasted £1.25m on 2 sh1t strikers you might have been able to put in a serious bid for Jay.

you and Jay can say what you want old son.

Fact is there's a shifting of power in Welsh football,and well you know it thats why we enquired about Jay however audacious it may have seemed.

Never mind our city is bigger than yours and we're the capital city,or our stadium is bigger and better rubbish,the fundamentals are we're a better football team and club at present which is what should and does matter.

Blackswan, dont take anything personal, its just banter and a lot of people enjoy your comments on here.

For 1 week, a total of 3 weeks over the past 10 years.

One swallow doesnt make a summer.

Enjoy your temporary time marginally above us.

Just as well we didnt get as excited as you are about being above you for the past 10 years (and 2/3 of our history), otherwie there would be no clean pants left in South Wales

the bid was a stunt by tha half-wit Jenkins, and you lot are stupid enough to think it was serious.

Agree with you there mower, but one thing I would say is that whilst I don't think it will happen, I wonder what would happen if the only offer on the table was £2m upfront in cash from Swansea for Bothroyd?

Non-starter.

1. I'm pretty certain they havent got £2m to spend. It would treble their record fee (£700k for Beattie)
2. Bothroyd's own words 'I won't be going there'.

Its just bollox from the village idiot. (jenkins)

Very much tend to agree, but stranger things have happened!

As i said earlier,i knew Jay wouldn't be coming west and contrary to your belief that Huw is a jackass,i found him coming out with this story rather surprising and out of character as he's an excellent chairman when you compare him to others [cough]

Im still not convinced that the Riddler isn't behind this story,perhaps endearing himself to your fans by saying he'd never sell.

I guess we'll never know.

Annis,thanks for the kind words buddy

Was going to post similar until I saw this - have a word with yourself jerk.

You flirted with success in the late 70's/early 80's (still went down the divisions quicker than you came up though ) and have gone above us at the moment - due to our shocking recent form. Virtually for the rest of history we've been above you. Learn to live with it, you should be used to it by now ffs.

As for the Riddler being behind that rumour - don't make me laugh. I despise the tw*t but don't think he could be blamed for that one. Don't you think that your Lord God Jenkins would have refuted it - and had his usual dig at us at the same time?
