Get your facts right. I have never taken a football club into administration. Get your facts right then leave me alone. If you e mail me again I will pass this over to the Police.

Well Mr Ridsdale. It looks like you are about to take your 3rd club into administration. I hope you are really proud of this fact. Your financial mismanagement of Cardiff City FC is scandalous. The fact that you are being paid handsomely to mess up my club is beyond contempt. I have been a fan for over 30 years and my 2 boys are CCFC through and through despite never having lived in Wales. What are they going to do on a Saturday afternoon when CCFC folds? Can you answer that?

We live in the real world Mr Ridsdale. Bills have to be paid. The taxman has to be paid. I manage to feed a family of 5 on a budget. Why cant you run a football club to a budget?

You are an embarrassment to my football club. When CCFC go into admin I hope the first thing that the administrator does is to make the role of Chief Executive Redundant-no doubt though you will negotiate yourself a huge payoff.

If you have a single ounce of decency you will walk out of CCFC now and give your shares that you awarded yourself to the Supporters Trust.

Thanks once again for making CCFC a laughing stock.

nothing in there that the police would be interested in

Just send it to him in 48 hours it will probably be factually correct then.

what a right tosser.

THAT MEANS HE IS FINALLY LOOSING THE PLOT, HIS HEAD MUST HAVE GONE

This is very significant, he could well be looking for someone to blame - a way out.

I have emailed him on several occasions in the past including on Friday night. Not once has there been any swearing or threats made. Bollox to him. I'm not setting foot inside CCS until he goes.

Why don't you just leave him alone? Seriously what do you get from stalking him? YOU ARE NOT GOING TO CHANGE HIM!

It's fact that he is on his way out.... just get on with supporting the team mate, unfortunately there is nothing we can doing at the moment!

Charming. I have not made a single threat or used foul langauge in my emails to him.

Plenty threatening him with old bills at the moment.

I wouldnt worry, he's got nothing on you.

He's going to have bigger worries in the next few weeks.

I'm not overly concerned but try telling that to a 7 month pregnant hormonal lady!

I tend to agree.

Firstly Ridsdale could make a complaint to the Police about fans who continually bombard him with Emails, whether they are abusive or not. It's called civil harassment and technically it is a criminal offence to repeatedly send unwanted correspondence to someone who considers themselves 'harassed' especially if they have requested that they stop.

I suspect that's where he's going with the 'get your facts right' about taking clubs into administration. For the record he is right he has never been Chairman of a club which went into administration. That said he was certainly ultimately responsible for Leeds eventually entering Admin, but he wasn't there when they did.

That brings me to another point; I truly believe he is lining himself to bring an unfair dismissal claim against the club once he does go. He knows his days are number and is probably looking for one last pay day before he does.

I base this on his responses to Emails (he only replies to abusive or factually incorrect ones) and there was that recent 'anti-English' nonsense in the Sunday Express.

He could use the Emails to prove there was anti-English element to him leaving. Whether that will be enough evidence is another matter but personally I wouldn't give him the opportunity. Leave his Email and texts numbers alone, just get outside CCS and demonstrate on Tuesday night.

Dont worry Gareth, I believe PR is the one now panicking, I have heard loads today and I finally think its coming home to him, he will be going.

In the past 3 or so seasons i have emailed him no more than 14 or 15 times. 10 of those were linked to the fa cup final. The other 5 have all been done in last few weeks and all i have done is ask a few questions which a transparent person would answer.

If Guy comes onboard what will be the total share vote that can be mustered against him?

What disturbs me is that when he goes he will receive a big payoff from our club.

Gareth, you will get DJ on your case next claiming allsorts

If PR tried reporting you to the Police at this present moment he would get nowhere.

However, if you kept Emailing him now he has told you to leave him alone you could open yourself up to a visit from the old bill who would do no more than warn you to leave him alone on the first occasion. Obviously if it carried on beyond that it could get messy

Personally I would forget about the tosser he isn't worth the hassle, he going soon and when he does you can then laugh at him for being professionally and financially bankrupt.

I actually wouldnt laugh at the bloke. I pity him. He should never be allowed to run a football club again.

Gareth that's very well put.

PR is about to realise his limitations which he has been in denial about all his life. He will cut a pitiful site because he has met more than his match in Borley and Guy and they don't take prisoners.

What's left of him will be pathetic relic but for us more important matters like saving our club and finishing above the Jacks will soon take presedence.
