Incase you aren't aware:

Cardiff signings
Gary Medal £11.5million
Andreas Cornelius £8.5million
Steven Caulker £9million
Magnus Wolff Eikrem £2.2million
Kévin Théophile-Catherine £2.2million
Peter Odemwingie £2.5million
John Brayford £1.5million
Cala £1million
Total = £38.4million

Our signings
Hoilett £3.3million
Park £1million
Granero £5.4million
Diakite £3.5million
Samba £12million
Remy £8million
M'Bia £3.2million
Total = £36.4million


Most believe we paid mega money for players. Not true. Unless I've missed some players off our list from last season? I know which bunch of players I'd prefer to be trying to sell!

Problem we will have selling them is the vast wages they are all on cant see anybody coming in for Hoilett for example who is on 50k

If we were able to sell any of that bottom list, Remy aside, we would have done. Do you seriously think we turned down big money for Granero and Park last summer?

Ok, take Stephen Caulker vs Park; 9m vs 1m

At a guess, the wages will be something like 25k pw and 50k pw

1.25m annual vs 2.5m

After three years Cardiff have paid 12.75m, we've paid 8.5m

By this point, Caulker will be ~25 and at his prime value. He should be worth at least what Cardiff paid for him.

Park will be 35 and scratching round for a new contract. Zero transfer value.

He seems unconcerned which means he knows a lot more about the finances than the fans or journos do.

I wish people would focus less on knocking the board and more on supporting the team.

The journalists and Editors mostly want headlines and stories that will sell papers.

The shareholders have lent money to the club to fund their own plans for a Premier League club to play in a big new stadium and have a good foundation. If it fails and they wnat their money back, who will they get it from? The club has no money, so it is in their interest to make a success of it. And ths is what I think they will endeavor to do.

Now all this has come out I want us to prove the media and everyone else 100% wrong.. don't give a sh1t whose in charge anymore.. come on laaaaadddsss!!!

This isn't the 1990s or CM99/00, wages are far more important than transfer fees. Bosingwa was "free" and cost 7m per year, that's 21m across his three year deal!

The second group of players will be paid roughly 250k per week in total more than the first. 1m per month, 12m per year.

Over three years, those QPR players cost approx £36m more in wages than the Cardiff players.

And all the while the resale values of the 28+ year olds will be decreasing.

Was thinking the same. I love the way people all believe what's printed and treat it as gospel. Still laugh to myself about Samba's £100k a week. Now we were supposedly paying Boswinga £135k a week! I'm just turning Champ manager on now myself!

[loneranger]

No we in that mate, a few weirdos maybe but definitely no 'we'

That uncle tag,save for old school connotations sounds a bit groomerish.
