    Would Orient not be a better club for him?

    The guy is on a huge ego trip .
    The fans should boycott the club for a few games so he realises he bought the club but the fans are the life blood of any club .

    They should have boycotted when he desecrated their club's history and identity.

    Sacking mackay may have been the straw that broke the camel's back. I don't think he'll last long, there was already tan out banners at games and the fans will crank it up now.

    Coming from a Chelsea fan ? Your football club have benefited massively from one of those idiots.

    Abramovic has been nowhere near as damaging.

    I have no sympathy for Cardiff fans, they sold out and were more than willing to accept Tan's cash in exchange for their heritage being destroyed.

    However, there is a part of me that is siding with Tan. Malky is getting alot of good will, however I think he is overrated. He blew £50 million and STILL wanted 3 more players. The players he acquired aswell were not as good as they should have been.

    Guys being bought like Andreas Cornelius, for £7 million - rising to £10m and he is *. He also got a pay rise from £6k a week at Copenhagen to £45k a week at Cardiff. That is not strictly Malky's fault, however you can see why Tan would be raging as guys like that should be doing better than they are.

    Medel for £10m aswell is another rotten move.

    Malky is decent, however he is not above blame.

    They were happy to let one man change the colour of their strips, its like someone coming to Celtic and changing ours (although ours is bit more iconic). Why no outcry back then? Why no banners, or boycotts?

    So Medel for £10 million was a cracking bit of business?

    There might have been but it couldn't have been spectacular - I remember not a jot of it.

    I just feel Cardiff fans do not deserve as much sympathy as they are getting, nor does Malky.

    He's a decent guy who will probably find another job with ease but the 'graduation effect' is striking people.

    What??? :smiley-laughing002:


    Ambramovich's money completely changed English football for the worst, after he came in all of a sudden all the other clubs realised they had to either get super rich owners or spend beyond there means just to keep up with his cash. The way Chelsea operate is everything that's wrong with modern football.

    There were massive boycotts, of the sell out crowd we now have, I would say maybe 50% were there last season, most of the boys I know from down there have gone to Newport or non-league clubs. Its a joke whats happened.

    Just because you see the stadium fill out every week, you have to remember that most of the people there are glory fans who'd be away in a second if we went back down.
