Wheels come off at Cardiff

[RoversReturn]

Cardiff 0 v 3 Middlesbrough.

[I-was-there1976]

a real shame for the Welsh



and their fans are leaving after 20 mins

[tommy toes]

And they've just brought Koumas on so no doubt they'll be throwing themselves on the ground at every opportunity.

[RoversReturn]

Now Cardiff are a club that has gambled this season on getting to the Premiership, spending money they don't have. They must owe money all over the place. If they don't go up they are in Danger of calling in the administrator.

[Dutch Uncle]

Damn good job we don't need anything at Boro at the weekend B)

[eastender]

Will the QPR saga save them,and gift them automatic promotion.

[silent majority]

So, are you another Rovers Return?

Not strictly true. They had financial problems at the start of the season and flirted with the administrator. However they did sell shares to a very wealthy group of investors which solved all their problems.

You maybe right we will see. Must be paying £20,000 a week just for Bellamy.

i'd heard they were paying 20 and man city were paying the other 61.

81k a week and he still moans ?

that's the amount that was reported, it was ages ago in an article that was looking at all the prem players cardiff have this year and who was paying their wages (shortly after cardiffs admin palava i think).

i think it determined in the end that cardiffs wage bill was being subsidised to the tune of 12 million.

[I-was-there1976]

he's just lost the ball to some no name and didnt bother chasing back. Well he did wave his arms at the ref which stopped him running

[coventryrover]

Well if Norwich win tonight thats them promoted.  Fantastic effort by them.

[RoversReturn]

Yes & just think we took 4pts off them beating them 3 v 1 with all three from Copps. You look back at the team we had out that night. We were on fire.

[I-was-there1976]

could end up a Swansea v Cardiff final


to be played at Wembley

madness

[coventryrover]

Not madness really, everyone know what the playoffs are about and that the FA need to pay off some of their debt ignoring any common sense, just look at the recent cup semis.

[I-was-there1976]

its not madness its all about money and that is madness


eh ?

whatever

[coventryrover]

Norwich promoted to the prem!!!

[AbsolutDRFC]

And should Cardiff lose at Burnley, then Swansea will also take 3rd place by beating the Blades.

Then that 3rd place could easily turn into 2nd, depending on the QPR outcome.
