Tis true, for once, what the sheep shaggers say - Jones is always bleating (which of course makes him popular down there) about something or other to distract the attention from his own failures. Needs 5 new players my ####. They do have a good squad, I admit, the problem isn't the personnel it's the fact they are just clueless. 5 more players will mean 5 more options he doesn't know what to do with.

In any case. the club should be bust ffs (putting to one side it shouldn't be in this League anyway). It shouldn't be able or allowed to even be floating buying or bringing in more players while it pays creditors pennies in the pound on its debts.

Wages for the championship must be enormous.

paying 22k a week already for Bellamy, they owe hammam 10 million big ones and in January Inland revenue want a size of income.

Not sure the Malaysian owners are that well off, as their fans think.

They have 5 loans already and we saw last season, over the long term that doesn't work

I think I am right in saying that Jones himself is not cheap. At £750k is said to be highest paid manager outside the Prem (and raking in more than several in it).

As I understand it you are right about the Hammam /Langsdale debt. Could be more than £10m too. But this also shows that the Malays do not actually own or control the club (i.e. 50.1%plus). They won't be liable for that debt until and unless they take control. I assume they are sitting back to see if that would be good money after bad. Cardiff remain vulnerable. Which is why this spending would be very high risk for them. But it shouldn't be allowed in any case. And let's have the 9 point off em now while we are at it.
