I dont see the point in mentioning that you spoke to someone and they wouldnt tell you if their were plans to remove the bluebird or not. Stirring the pot that comes across as to me.

The bluebird..........I want a guarantee it will remain before I renew.

great news on Maynard, be like a new signing when he comes back! :ayatollah: and hopefully we get Austin (i doubt it) but Sordell will be a useful signing, as will Hunt! hopefully the other defender is John Brayford from Derby :ayatollah:

This is my fear - too soon and he retraces 4 or 5 months. I would count him out for the season, then anything else is a bonus

Sounds like Austin is choice number 1. What a signing he'd be.

But Sordell? The lad was on fire a couple of seasons ago. If anyone can
turn his career around I'd put money on our manager to be the one!!!

If the Bluebird goes i will spend every moment chanting Bluebirds. And even if it kills me i will get everyone around me singing it. I will say now please don't quit its our Club. Just make our voices heard in the ground.

i trust Malky in whoever he signs really, Sordell was brilliant for Watford!... how tall is Sordell anyway? hopefully not to short!

will be sad indeed if the bluebird goes. This fan consultation sounds like you can design what you want but we'll have the ultimate say and any bluebird may be chopped. I hope I am proven wrong and I have no doubt fans will still shout bluebirds but it will be very hollow. great update as usual Carl superb stuff, Maynard awesome news !!! :ayatollah:

To be honest im hoping malky brings in a striker and maynard is not risked,it would be a disaster for the lad on a personal level if hes rushed back and does himself in again.

thanks for the update as always carl :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:36 pm

Regarding the bluebird - it may be there, or it may not... Sorry but that's no news at all?

I think the fans need to start asking questions, maybe do a draft email and everyone sends it wanting to know that it stays.

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:36 pm

in all honesty though if the bluebird was going to go the year we get promoted would be the best time for tan to do it! think of it, bluebird goes he knows 1000s of Cardiff fans will call it quits, but if we get promoted he will know that the 1000s that go will be easily replaced with people wanting to watch premier league football!

i hope they keep the bluebird like any other cardiff fan wants, and i will be really hurt if it does! i would still go watch them cos i can't just give it up, its like a drug, and presides, it doesn't stop us chanting bluebirds, or bring bluebirds flags and wearing our blue shirts!

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:36 pm

Austin would be a major coup, but im not confident, Marlon King is another name ive heard along with Redmond from Brum.

After reading the update the only thing I care about is keeping the bluebird I couldn't give a shit about the rest of it .

Say what you like about me but the identity of my club means the world to me I am proud of my club.

He got rid of most of are identity and if he does get rid of the bluebird then that is disrespectful.

We will wait and see.

Get Austin and Hunt, you Jack Hunt, you Jack Hunt...........

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:45 pm

Wonder who the defender could be

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:48 pm

Absolutely brilliant news on the traininng ground, putting everything in place to sustain success it seems. Good to hear we are after austin but I think we may have to downgrade (sordell,jerome) for january and try to get austin in the summer if we go up. I think he'll score goals in the top league. He's had a few injuries but when playing he's always scored loads of goals and I think he'll carry it on in the premier league. Sadly can't see burnley letting him go this month unless a big prem club comes in and austin demands the move. Jack hunt would be another great signing who I think we could get this month from huddersfield. Impressed me on the opening day and I think hed be brilliant for us. Good news that maynard is in training, but as a few others have said I wouldn't get to excited by this. It is pretty normal timing for him to be back doing light training and I still can't see him playing a game before the end of march at the very earlyest! Still be fantastic if he could get a couple of games to push us over the line at the end of the season, even if its off the bench. All in all its a pretty exciting time to be a bluebird!!!

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Great news about Nicky Maynard Carl. Same for the training ground. Interesting about the £5 charge, had no idea. Am a bit obsessive about my ST. Check every 30 seconds that I have it safely with me! :ayatollah: Onwards and upwards :ayatollah:

Re: " MONDAY JANUARY 7th 2013 UPDATE "

Mon Jan 07, 2013 8:54 pm

That's a superb update Carl, particularly the Maynard news .
The Sports complex is another tick on Tans list . :ayatollah:
Unless I missed something thou I have one gripe . How can you conclusively say that there will be at least two definite signings ?
You ask for patience which indicates to me that they are not a given


Fantastic update. :ayatollah:

excellent news there...

maynard is the best news, good to here on the training complex, anyone know whereabouts this is going to be located?

would be really happy with 1 new striker coming in, but i think to get austin we would be getting quoted 5 or 6 mil from burnley.

as for season tkts, i really thought this was the last yr coming on the 5yr price deal but some have said we have 2 left, can anyone confirm this i cant remember :oops:
