£3 million defender leaves Cardiff for Celtic – and has a swipe at former manager

by stresster on August 20th, 2008 6 comments

It’s something of a blow to lose your best defender just one match into the season, especially when you’re gunning for a top six finish in the Championship after an FA Cup final appearance last season. However, Dave Jones is going to have to cope without Glenn Loovens, who has now completed his switch from Cardiff to Celtic for £3 million – not a bad bit of business considering the Bluebirds acquired him for £250,000.

This time Cardiff City get their man – despite Hull trying to land Wolves striker at 11th hour

by stresster on August 6th, 2008 2 comments

Until a player has passed a medical and signed on the dotted line, there is no such thing as a done deal in football. Cardiff City should know, after recently missing out on Marcus Bent. The striker was all set to sign for the Bluebirds from Wigan, before Birmingham dangled a carrot in front of the player and he was off to the west Midlands like a shot. However, this time they have snapped up a forward from Wolves who could bag plenty next season. [Read the rest of this entry »]

Cardiff jump for joy while Boro dive into agony

by sub on March 10th, 2008 no comments

Cardiff City have accomplished a giant-killing act after they knocked out Premiership side Middlesbrough from the quarter-finals of the FA Cup on Sunday and marched into the semis to b held at Wembley this year.

City manager Dave Jones says:

Honest to God – and you have got to believe me – once tonight is out of the way, we are in tomorrow and we are getting ready for the next league game now because we have a lot of catching up to do.

But this must give us an incentive now because, man for man down there, they are absolutely elated and they are ecstatic and everything else.

Someone asked for champagne – for what? We have just got through to the next round.

We have not done anything yet. All we have done is get through to the semi-finals of the FA Cup.

We haven’t won it, we have not got to the final and we have got to get prepared. Why would we be drinking champagne?

That’s for the staff on the plane going home.

As for the Middlesbrough boss Gareth Southgate, well you can read the gloom here now:

It is a huge disappointment for us. We know what an opportunity it was to win something.

But that is the cup and that is why I always say you are judged as a team by what you do in the league because the cup can go any way for you.

We have had games here that we should have been out of competitions and we have gone all the way to the final.

Today, we got what we deserved. It’s what happens on the day and we didn’t deliver.

But all hats off to Championship side Cardiff for keeping the magic and romance of the FA Cup alive. Next stop Wembley and Cardiff do not care whom they face.
