Spot on really. Its been a shit 5-6 weeks. The club tells us f**k all, so if certain people
on this board are privy to the goings on at Cardiff City FC then its obvious we want to
know. Im pretty sure TG gave his blessing somewhere down the line to let the fans know
there was a meeting last night, otherwise it would still be a secret.

The underlying thing here is this:

If Cardiff City ceased to exist tomorrow, the ground would still be there, and so would
Cardiff Blues. PMG would take a big hit, but Hall and Oates would have the keys to the
City. The WRU would find some way of 'supporting' the new infastructure for the good
of Welsh Rugby (meaning they'd soften the blow to PMG by channelling some dosh their
way)... and Welsh Rugby would have its flagship, Capital City club, complete with new
ground.

So if TG and Sam Hammam are talking, then I want to hear about it!!

If Carl or Annis also know certain things that were discussed in the meeting and have
been told to keep schtumm then thats perfectly understandable, and it really would be
damaging if for instance (and a massively hypothetical idea) if it leaked out that TG
wants to invite Sam back on board, to write off his debt, and then TG fund a buy-out
of PMG :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Judging by this dodgy rumour, Sam may be offering a cash buy in

Has Sam got 20 million Doubt it --but it could be a restructure /write off the loan if I can be on the board

Sam can negotiate the loan notes plus I do honestly believe he actually does have a few quid to invest himself too , time will tell tho :ayatollah:

Thanks again for the info Carl. I must say i'm finding it pretty hard to get motivated by any news regarding CCAFC at the moment, but as they say, "the only way is up", & i know that i speak for the many on here that we truly & sincerely hope so. :ayatollah: :ayatollah: :ayatollah:

Yes I'm sure you would like to give positive news, but the question still hasn't been answered.. Whenever information has been at hand previously, its been put on this forum despite any possible problems it may cause. Why has this changed? Why can't Carl tell us the "truth" that him you gwyn etc know about? What's the difference between this and the things that have been posted before.

you're not going to get an answer as the policy is applied to suit. When recent exclsuive and copyrighted information has been put on here lately resulting in a negative consequential impact we are told that the fans deserve to know the truth. Now we are told that as fans the truth must be kept from us because in this case it is different.

nothing has changed, except the goalposts. smacks of hypocrisy. they won't admit it of course

Totally agree with this point. If the truth cannot be made public to FANS of the club then what was the point in posting this article in the first place? Everyone was aware a meeting was going to take place (it was on the official website) so why not say nothing and not even bother generating hype for no reason?!

Not sniping here, just wondering why the aritcle was published if no new information could be shared and why the goalposts have moved in terms of all information (good & bad) being made public?

So it would seem. The lack of replies from those "in the know" to the many people who have raised the same query on this thread says a lot in my opinion.

Is it true that this meeting didn't actually take place?

Re: " MASSIVE NEWS FOR CARDIFF CITY "

Tue Jul 13, 2010 7:40 pm

For all those in this thread asking why cant I say everything, it is quite simple that I have given my word prior to being given information that I would not pass on the sensitive material that I have learned, there is not just one meeting either.

Agreed it does say a lot like, I'm keeping stum because I have been asked to and to go against that might f**k things up for the club.

Like 99% of other posters I don't know what is happening between TG & SH and I am happy for that to continue if it is in the best interests of CCFC.

Not only that why is it so important to be 'in on the know?'

Who said Carl won't deliver?

Just because he won't give out info now doesn't mean he will not do it at a later date. TBH its a bit rude making demands of someone who has freely given info out in the past.

Rude? thats like asking the NOW to keep Stum!

I respect Carl, but you cant be Snow White one minute and a dwarf the next.

Clearly somethings going on, and fair enough to Carl if hes been requested to keep Stum, but you cant really be the poacher one minute and the gamekeeper the next on a messageboard but i'm sure he has his reasons, whilst I also appericate those who now question his silence at the present time considering his previous.

Surely you can understand though that your comment of:

Myself, Annis, Vince, Gwyn and Mogsy all know the truth and hopefully right this minute TG will be hearing it too. This could very well be a defining and pivotal moment in our history.


shows that you claimed to be aware of what one side of the parties in the meeting were going to say which then completely contradicts you now saying that you are not privvy to what is said in the meetings?

Ok then can you answer this:

If Gethin Jenkins had told Carl about the transfer embargo but asked him to keep it quiet as he felt it would damage the club would it have been kept quiet?

Expect the naysayers to down it but it's happening and your the first to hear it.

Now it is down to the Malaysians and how they plan to deal with the news they are hearing, what they decide I will support as they are doing it for the good of our club.

Not a bad one to post for my 3000th post. You had to wait until I knew the meeting was going ahead.

Did any such meeting actually take place Carl or was Sam being a little "economical with the truth" again.?

Carl has explained his situation and I for one can completely understand where he is coming from. He has given his word that any information that comes his way about the finer details of the meetings between TG & SH will be treated as confidential whilst the meetings are in progress.

That doesn't actually mean he knows something you (or I) don't know at this point about the meetings, it just means that if he does become aware of something whilst they are still talking he will keep stum just in case anything said by him was too sensitive.

Complete and utter common sense

Carl's first quote only proves he has some idea of what Sam Hammam is likely to say to TG, he has of course no idea what TG's response will be at the meeting between the pair and has consistently stated that.

Clearly says he knows the truth? what's the truth?
he can't say. Then why mention it?
why not just say there's a meeting between CCFC reps and Hammam.? Simple as.
Oh and just to be clear, what the truth is i don't know, and do i care? do i f/ck
