Yes, we do get some for free when they are out of contract.

We will release a couple of players in January, maybe loan a couple out and possibly sell one for decent money.

That's how we will afford new players, but I don't expect them to be anything other than loan signings or players who have been released by their previous clubs.

Ah I see, so we have to sell to buy? I thought the season ticket money was ringfenced for new players. Presumably these incoming players will be on high wages yes? where do we get the money to pay their wages?

Not really. If we are going to make a push for promotion then they are likely to be players of some quality and they dont come cheap. So the £3 million is not ringfenced?

What do you think?

Did you seriously believe the money from season ticket sales would go on new players?

He was posting on here the other day.

As for your one look a day on Mike's board, you've posted five messages on there today! I don't know why you are seeing this as some sort of popularity contest. I thought you were better than that. Be honest, Mike has let you (and me on your behalf) get away with murder over the years, especially about the books.

He was on here and he and 4 others got banned the night before last.
Yes I have always said I respect Mike and I speak to him every week, I use to speak 5 times a day to you.
Yes I got away with murder.
But He should get rid of some of the idiots of there and he agreed that today on the ph to me.

You've got plenty of snipers on here too. Ninian 72, Ben, etc etc.

You seem to let them get away with it as long as people like me are the target and not you.

Re: FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS

Sun Jan 03, 2010 11:33 pm

well I am sure there are many a true Cardiff City supporter who feels duped having purchased their season tickets in good faith genuinely believing that money would be earmarked for strengthening the team and many of those fans will genuinely feel like crying over the current state of events. I for one did not believe it for one minute and I'll believe we have new players when I see them in a Cardiff City shirt, until then I will remain a sceptic.

I tell people off, if they get out off hand and at least I know Ben actually exists. I will sort the other one out very soon.
Come on here more and PLS sort Your Avitar out.

Yes I know mate. It's just infuriating to keep hearing all these promises from our club which more often than not turn out to be half truths and in many cases damn lies. When you have been supporting the club as long as I have, to see headlines in newspapers as we have today is heartbreaking, and I just feel these people at the top dont have the best interests of the club at heart. At the end of the day some people have a huge depth of feeling for their club and I dont think chairmen and executives at clubs really understand that. It's just a big ego trip and/or financial cash cow for them.

Annis did he say how many players we need to sell in order to bring in the 3/4 players the club are looking at??

Re: FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS

Mon Jan 04, 2010 7:18 am

If the TNOW story is true Matthews will be sold to Man Utd for £4m and we will raise £3m from season ticket sales. Whilst I doubt we will get the full £4m from Man Utd now, there should be a down payment of around £2m.

That gives us £5m to settle the tax bill and bring in players during January.

We can argue all day long about the way Ridsdale has packaged this arrangement but the bigger picture is the tax bill will be settled and players will come in.

I am not buying in to it, PR is a lying crook and he is going to bring our club crashing down, He will say anything to keep people happy

Re: FINALLY SOME GOOD NEWS

Mon Jan 04, 2010 11:48 am

All we need is back up to Bothroyd (hopefully Iwelumo or someone of that ilk), a creative midfielder (Wilshere or Reid etc) and then a destroyer (Delph or Watson etc). If we get those three positions sorted I reckon we can push on and get promoted. The defence is getting better and better (forget the Peterborough game!) and our wings are sorted.

We don't need much more to improve. I don't want us to completely change the squad though because then we'll need a short time to settle again and we can't afford that.
