Cardiff City in financial meltdown

Kingp35

Peter Ridsdale, the destroyer of Leeds United, has worked his financial magic again. Just been on Sky Sports News that Cardiff City are £30m in debt and could be taken to court as Ridsdale has ignored repeated warnings to pay the money back!

Here is a thread on the Cardiff board about it. They could be fooked.

No link on Sky Sports yet as far as I can see but I'm sure it will break soon.

FFS Someone kick that cúnt out of football for good!

Well this has just made my day, I've hated that lot since Hammam incited the fans when we played them a few years ago, and Ridsdale going there made me dislike them even more. I know what it feels like when your team is going down the tube so I feel sorry for the genuine Cardiff fans, but there is a sense of poetic justice in this. I agree that Ridsdale has to be banned from football if this turns out to be true.

Love the way this thread will be plagued with Ledds fans:D. This is the greatest sense of justice, and has also made my day. Just like you Zaph, I've hated them ever since that day, but do feel for the fans moreso. Points deduction for them would be nice now, totally screw them up. Just for the fact that its Ridsdale there now, i really hope they hit a hard downward spiral so very quickly. Leeds were this bad in the Premiership, its not so easy being that much in debt in the Championship. He will be banned from football alright, but CCFC should have to suffer aswell.

I really do feel a +1 for the smiley face alone is worth it. They're trying to claim that they dont even know who this Langston Co. is...pathetic.

Good old Ridsdale is denying it all. I have this funny feeling that he has done this before.

Heres a link to the skysports one. It'll most probably be the same.

I'm getting a case of déja vu with Ridsdale. Cardiff City FC will need to get Rids of their debt quickly lol! Please shoot me:D, am fecking hyper

This really is exactly what happened to us. People saying we are in serious trouble with Ridsdale releasing statements saying it's all rubbish.

If I was a Cardiff fan I wouldn't believe a single word coming out of Ridsdale's mouth.

But sure aren't Cardiff "living the dream" :rolleyes:

Seriously this guy is a f**kwad, should never be allowed anywhere near a football club again or any directorship for that matter

I dont know who should control these people but the FA or someone should have rules about these guys jumping from club to club and suddenly seeing these crazy debts adding up for clubs.

No, its just the whole Ridsdale connection thing. As I said, I feel sorry for the fans.
