Another vomit inducing match on telly

Cardiff just gone 4-1 up at Blackburn,Joe Mason scored a peach,Noone starring throughout.Jesus wept.Nothing against the two players,it just induces a gnawing knot of hatred in my stomach for all of the twats who have brought our club to its knees,especially when you think what might have been.Will we ever learn the lessons though? I fear not.

Cardiff probably heading for the Premier League. Don't suppose we negotiated any add-ons with either Mason's or Noone's pittance of a transfer? No? Thought not.

I think you'll find that the Riddler spent many sleepless nights trawling his extensive contacts list in a heroic attempt to find someone willing to buy good players at a giveaway price. Just be thankful that he succeeded in his herculean task just in time to save your club and don't sound so ungrateful with your impertinent questions. Just remember how the Reluctant Bidder praised his efforts and you too will experience the epiphany of the Truth, the Way and the One True Light. (How the "Love Brent/Hate the Riddler" faction square that particular circle is a mystery to me, but to be honest nothing surprises me about some elements of your support anymore).

Those Nerd Fests are the emiptome of why this club has never/will never achieve anything unless restructure from top till bottom happens, part of that re-structure should be someone with vision and true footballing ambition coming in and showing Brent the door ......until that belated day nothing ever will change im afraid.
The "superfans" and bucket rattlers would be cast into oblivion once and for all, Forza Nerd disbanded, the giant flags and banners disposed off in the nearest skip,the mural of Purse painted over...the fan fests would be no-more, all those tentacles of failure, Villageness, Avivaness, and small time cleansed from the club, never again to emerge.

We live in vain hope

Punchie and Tring hijack yet another thread with criticism of the Fan Fests. Personally, I wouldn't go to one as its not my thing but what really is the issue with them? There's a tent that the club used for hospitality when we were in a higher league and when hospitality was a part of the pre-match routine at Argyle. That simply disappeared once the relegations and admin happened and rather than have a disused tent at the back of the Grandstand, some people got together and made use of it. How you can criticise it is beyond me... I think though it's the people that go there that Punchie and Tring have issues with rather than people enjoying themselves before they watch a Home Game.

Mason's goal was very well taken and although it's pretty depressing seeing young players that have left achieving and fulfilling their potential with other clubs, it's nice to think we had a part in developing them.

It isn't as black and white as that. Many of the fanatical brentophiles today did more than their share of fawning over the "hard working gentleman" as he sold off the last remaining quality we had for next to nothing. And before that they were telling us to "trust in stapes".

Although admittedly, an increasing number of us have issues with a few of the 'biggest' and most devious characters in this whole sorry story of stinking control freaks..........................

I think you've missed the point again. Small minded, self promoting parochiality , is what the club is clearly all about these days. How village.

Jeez..........even Sue Buckets appears to have had a makeover !

Aviva chose wisely...........innum ?

I haven't missed the point. Do you visit a local school when they are having their summer fete and tip over the jam stalls as they display 'home made' preserves? That's essentially what you are criticising. People are simply making use of something that isn't being used and enjoying themselves.

People keep getting accused of missing the point Tring when they call you out on your ludicrous and repetitive codswallop - perhaps you might try explaining yourself a little better, be discursive and climb over the fence of your turgid and circular semantic field.

Yep, I can't wait to cream my pants if Copp makes it at another league club.

He's local, he's a footballer and he's playing at a very good standard and excelling at his club - that's good to see if you are a fan of football - regardless of where he came from. Noone especially in that respect as he was hammering nails into people's support beams not so long ago.

Actually agree with you on Noone and Mason, we had no choice on them leaving. Copp we did, don't understand why Fletcher gave him a 6 month contract and then brought in loanee after loanee who often didn't play anyway.

We got Plymouth prices though! And no, we won't learn the lessons. We haven't so far and there's no indication that the current owner is learning anything.

The slapper from Ayia Napa? The troll from Limassol? The future seer from Nicosia?

I would never say anything like that Jock because....
1) He is bigger than me and
2) errr he's scarier than me!

The gut buster from Famagusta.

He doesn't live in Sri Lanka so I won't join in with this.

I agree. I said that much in my somewhat verbose essay on Brent on Pasoti. "A rush to anoint one messiah after another" were the words I think I used

BTW, didn't someone once claim that The Riddler's and the Reluctant Bidder's paths once crossed?

Did you ever find out who was behind BIL BTW? Might have been fun trading the possibly byzantine threads back to their source.

It strikes me that with the size of your fanbase, there must be some that match your description among that number. I guess when even your own self-appointed leaders seem to be against fan ownership and appear to believe that the best place to find integrity is in a former senior executive of one of one of the most venal, amoral and avaricious organisations you could ever wish to be shafted by, I guess ownership by those you can really trust (i.e your own fans) would be a non-starter.

A Shame really.

Interesting theory there JAB, Riddler was always linked to someone at Citibank in NY...... just wondering.

I remember a seemingly knowledgeable Cardiff fan posted a whole load of stuff on Pasoti warning us about the riddler. The story goes when the Riddler was at Cardiff he claimed to be talking to a "US investor" which later only transpired was just a Citibank employee.

There were a small percentage of us hat were asking the questions of the reluctant bidder, unfortunately we were shouted down by people who had actually met the new messiah, we had e-mails from prominent superfans threatening and pleading with us to stop our questioning because we were not helping with the saving of the club! Foresight, despite popular belief post Brent was not only held by city fans and Tringy there were quite a few of us not ready to annoint another messiah until he had proved himself. As for Riddler I always thought he was waiting in the wings for first BIL then Brent to hand him the keys to he he boardroom, I think Brenty outplayed him. To clear all the smoke and mirrors away from Argyles latest episode will probably take longer than finding the truth about Lord Lucan. The thing is now, does it all really matter? More important is to get the club out from under he burden of debt and Brent.
