Vincent Tan: “ Do you honestly think that we have”

Vincent Tan:

By Glen William


Tuesday 21st May 2024


"I hear talk that we have no plan.”

“Do you honestly think I would have put in so much of my money if I had no plan?”

“Do you think we are idiots?”

“Do you think I would be putting in money every month, particularly during the pandemic, if I didn't want success?," the Bluebirds chief said in November 2022.

“We are planning all the time and putting things in place, we have a plan.”

Well, 18 months later, if this Bulut deal isn't pulled off, Cardiff will be on their fourth manager in that time. Whether that was always the plan or is the perceived recipe for success is up to fans to decide.

No one is suggesting that these deals are easy to get over the line, by the way. These are men at the top of their fields in Bulut and Tan and both know their worth and influence. Is it a case of who blinks first? Is it how flexible Tan will be over the finer details in the contract? These are multi-million-pound decisions, especially when you factor in transfer demands, bolstering the coaching staff and adding to the recruitment department.

Bulut has his flaws, to which he has admitted, but he also has passion and a desire to drive the club forward. He has already spoken to at least one prospective coach over joining his coaching staff and has personnel in mind when it comes to the recruitment department, too. Indeed, players had even been discussed before the end of the season and some are now the subject of interest from other clubs.

than plan is to pretend you know what your doing whilst loosing money, and then hope one day he will magically get 300 mill for the club.

honestly this is nuts, even the people who support the board are running out of things to say in support.

everyone knows this is a shocking way to run a club, this is antics of a non league club im shocked we dont know whats going on with the manager.

i cant help but feel this is going to cost us signing players especially the ones who are going to be free agents, other clubs are going to snap them up.

its clear to see there wont be any money to spend, if that is the case its another mid table finish and people will say better the devil you know atleast he keeps us running.

why cant we for once have an owner who loves the club like we do and talks with the fans its all we ask, we all spend thousands per year following our club we deserve better, im not asking for millions to be spent and us to break ffp, im asking for fast positive action clear direction and leadership isnt that the min of a big club.

us fans deserve more its a sorry state for our beautiful club :|

Correct Kyle,

THERE IS NO REAL PLAN & HAS NOT BEEN FOR YEARS.

HIs last few followers your right are finding it very hard to stick up for the Hierarchy anymore.

But no doubt Dalman in the next week will say something and Morgan will make out there are great plans and then, Williams will once again print the bullshit.

We are not surviving because of Tan, we are being run so badly We just creep along and continue to pray and dream that maybe just maybe Tan will finally leave and put us up for sale for realistic price.

We still have a few BRIWN NOSE supporters ,who see their position as a supporter is to praise or have an excuse for anything the hierarchy does , see no evil , hear no evil and speak no evil .


Some are plain supporters which is sort of ….passable or just regrettable . However , the really bad ones are those who pose as leaders.but never criticize strongly or even ask the really difficult questions .

On the contrary what they do is “give a pass” to the hierarchy to make them look good , giving a pass is similar to a football game where a player does an “assist” for another to score . Some of the questions asked if the Club are precisely that, giving a pass ,an assist.in order to get an answer that makes the hierarchy look good.

That’s sadly how some are doing and have been for years, many fans have now seen through them.


If you really love our club then you say the truth as it is and don’t suck up just to keep in with the Hierarchy.

Kyle, as you know I'm not a Tan lover and I want him gone.

That being said I do believe in sharing what the facts are when points are made, as opposed to them coming out of thin air.

I don't believe that 300m has ever been mentioned as his out figure, it was 200m from what has been banded around on here.

On a different note, Wez has mentioned countless times now that Bulut is on 800k per year and that it is a high salary for a championship manager. There is no PROOF that I have seen of this salary, and judging by some of the manager salaries over the last few years, he ISNT one of the highest paid managers in the championship.

One thing I am certain of though, is that Tan isn't interested in us at all. He has lost his interest a long time ago. No backing, no interest in what the fans believe, no understanding of football, and no understanding of the UK it seems when it comes to atmosphere, otherwise why would he let out ground turn to a library.

Every owner makes mistakes, that's not anything new, but what I can't forgive is his blatant "Feck you" to the fans at every step of the way.

To be fair Roath it was more of a little figure of speech with the 300m lol it's more me guessing what he wants and in reality he won't get close to 200 with us being where we are.

But I agree he's bored with his toy and now he wants out but it seems he will only sell for a big figure and I for one can't see anyone paying top dollar for us.

But our club has so much potential capital city club the other welsh sides can't really compete with us either, we can only hope that one day someone who sees the potential and has a good footballing brain takes us over!

Never been one to slag of VT, he has put a lot of money in and that has to be respected but at this moment in time I have absolutely no idea where we are with anything, no manager, players out of contract that we could be snapping up, no real plan for pre season.

Makes the mind boggle tbh.
