After each goal they had big "Visit Malaysia" adverts on the screens, and after the 4th Watford goal some of the Cardiff fans looked like they were considering it

I haven't been around to catch a game since last year, are the summer signings actually good?

Ighalo is quiet at times but has good moments, paredes and guardierlo (?) are both excellent.

The team played incredibly for about 30 minutes today, great passing and they actually did something with all the possession, something we often struggle with. There was no let up until we were 4-1 up either which I was pleased with. There was some sloppy play after that but Cardiff are really poo poo so it didn't matter much.

Strong rumours that Hughton will be announced as our new manager tomorrow, betting has been suspended in some places.

He'll get alienate/get rid of any midfielders capable of passing a football and replace them with tackly lads who'll stay in position, ruin your strikers, but probably keep you up.

A perfect fit then since none of our midfielders know how to pass a football now, and none of our strikers have scored 5 goals this season.

Trollope yes, no idea on Calderwood their has been no confirmation on how the back room will be set up.

Nathan Jones the assistant to Oscar and Hyypia is being kept on, not sure if that's in his present position or as a coach.

If he brings the same backroom team in I'd fully expect you lot to end up playing the same dire football we did, they've not got a single attacking thought between them.

Dave Whelan has been banned for being a racist. The FA seem to think he isn't a racist though, despite him apologizing for being a racist twat.

That whole "we are satisfied he's not a racist" thing looks like he threatened to sue or some poo poo.


Edit : Unless banning him for being an actual racist would mean he'd be in danger of failing the fit and proper person test.

At least he's apparently staying at the club. I really wanted him to do well :(

It's funny that we've gone to another former player, though. Is Phelan well regarded?

Phelan was assistant to Fergie at Man U for years so he has pedigree, never know how the transition from coach to manager will go though. He's also only caretaker at the mo although I reckon he'll get given the job. Personally I'd like to see us try to poach Karl Robinson or failing that appoint Spurs greatest ever manager Tim Sherwood.

Our former coach Oscar was in the country for an interview over the weekend, wouldn't surprise me if he pitched up at Carrow Road. Wish I had put a tenner on it when he was 60/1.
