Cardiff Could Save us from the drop.

[nkgs100]

Just heard on 5live that they have a court case this week about the non-payment of £25million, which if they loose will mean they have to go in to administration, -10 points, drop in to the bottom 3.

We might stay up after all

clutching at straws here.

They are 2-0 up against Boro ... how much does a team get for reaching the semi's of the FA cup ? I know it wont be £25m but it might give them a stay of execution.

Depends how many fans they take. Not many from today's viewing.:icon_wink

 

[Leesoh]

We shouldn't be relying on other teams to save our status. We ought to be saving our own necks, and the fact that it's a possibility makes me sad.

 

[Uncle Connolly]

Pretty sure I read that even if they get to Wembley they could run into serious trouble if they lose their court case.

If so, then fantastic.

I'm simply desperate for us to stay up and end this season for good.

 

[londonfox]

I hope they do cos someone needs to and I doubt it will be ourselves

Since when has FA Cup prize money been dependent on the number of away fans? The correct answer is that 6th round winners receive £300,000. Curiously this is down from £400,000 four years ago. They will also have been paid another £265,000 because the match was shown live on TV.

It wont clear their debts, I was wondering if it was enough to give them a stay of execution.

IMO this court case is a personal vendetta led by Sam Hamaan. If it were purely business it would never have made the courts. He wants the club to go bankrupt so he can step in and buy it back bargain basement now the new stadium has the green light. Personal opinion only with no factual evidence.
And don't be too quick to write us off if the worst happens and we do go into admin. 10 points off would put us 6 points behind you with 2 games in hand.

 

[Melton Fox]

I wouldn't like to see us saved by a finacial irregularity of another club.

I wouldn't wish it on Cardiff, and I wouldn't wish for Holloway to keep his job because another club isn't being run properly, I would wish him to keep it because he's the right man for Leicester City.

[Yorkshire Vixen]

id gladly swap cardiff for sheff wednesday possibly going into admin

 

[Yorkshire Vixen]

Because you dont like Cardiff. If it was Wednesday we would almost be safe

thats what i put/meant - sheff wednesday going into admin instead of cardiff

 

[homer]

I don't wish to see anyone go into admin to keep us up

If these cnuts (Holloway included) aren't good enough to get us out of the bottom three on their own then the feckers deserve to go down

The annoying thing for us is that the club is being well run and has been since Ridsdale and Jonesy took control. Ridsdale restructured the inherited outstanding debts created by Hamaan and that feckwit Lennie (now I'll screw Bristol Rovers) Lawrence, got the new stadium moving independently from the debt, and Jonesy has made do with shrewd free transfers, loans, and bargain basement purchases (totalling less than £2m) along with having to sell his best players (Chopra, Gabbidon, Kavanagh, Gunther, Earnshaw etc) to make ends meet. I'd be happy if we both stayed up, but on the evidence I've seen, and your (collective) comments, Ollie isn't the man to take you forward (see my new signature).
