There might have been a meeting, which didn't take place in a boardroom!

He would not be invited and he has been Discussed at Boardroom level.
But if He beats Leeds, All will be forgiven for a few more games.

Jones: Blasted media reports
Click here for football betting
Cardiff boss Dave Jones has blasted media reports of a board meeting at the club to discuss his future, branding the rumours "a blatant lie".
Jones has come under pressure in some quarters following Cardiff's recent poor slump in form that has seen them win just two of their last 10 games. But chief executive Gethin Jenkins insists his position is not under scrutiny, and Jones has criticised those who are keen to create speculation.
"I live and work in a world where it seems to be sensational news if you're not doing right," he told Cardiff City Player. "This phantom board meeting that was called, and everything else, it's people writing things that just aren't true or saying things and that can't be right.
"You can't set off rumours and scaremongers and then actually print it. It was even put on Sky without checking an actual story, that for me is not being truthful and the one thing I am is truthful.
"That is a blatant lie and is trying to cause more trouble than what actually needs to be done. The people who are doing it are not checking it, I certainly wouldn't like to go to war with those people because as soon as there's a sign of trouble they drop you like a red hot potato."
Meanwhile, Jones insists Cardiff have not received a single transfer enquiry about star striker Jay Bothroyd or any other members of his squad who feature in his plans.

To be honest Annis, I would take a loss tomorrow to seal Jones' fate. We need to make a change now, we are not getting promoted with our current manager and picking up the odd win to save Jones' skin is just going to see us plummet further down the table in the future. If we wait any longer to make a change, it may be too late. I will be honest and I will be hoping for a Leeds win tomorrow. I have never wished City to lose in my life, but I see the bigger picture and I want us to get promoted this season. Jones has taken us as far as he can, he can not get us promoted. Better for us to lose tomorrow so we can bring in someone new with passion, fresh ideas and who can organise us with a solid defense. Just my opinion.

Perhaps his players should show some balls and do the job their asked to do, which clearly they have failed to do. Jay Bothroyd himself has already said so, Jay stated that it is us the players that are not doing as we are told and we need to get it right.

Or maybe the manager should show some balls and pick players that will follow his oh so wonderful orders?

Jay has stated that its not the fault of DJ, its down to the players not performing.

Sorry 'Ton Teg Bluebird' (I actually grew up there and my family are still in the area ) but I CANNOT accept that ANY game should be forfeited for ANY reason....unless, of course, it stopped the Jacks being promoted ( ) and you are out of order for suggesting!!
I pray that you are not there tomorrow night....if you are serious
We don't need that kind of support....particularly not tomorrow

Personally Id f**k off half of the tossers we have in the team.
