Did anyone hear this alleged statement by laudrup that he didn't know anything about emnes and that he was told he was a good player when here before??

If that is true, which I believe it is and there are probably a few other players in the same bracket. I have no confidence in Huw Jenkins remaining as chairman, I fully expect to be slated for that, but chairman with no footballing experience apart from the business end of things signing players is a massive no go in my opinion, and can't carry on.

Appoint a manager, back him with funds that we can afford and let him select his players.


Spot on.

I'm Surry harry redknapp said on Friday about one of his signings that he hadn't seen one of his signings play before maybe they trust their scout?

Wasn't this one of the main reasons ML fell out with his previous Chairmen in La Liga & Russia? And wasn't he given assurances that would not happen here?

If Jenkins & Co. have indeed been making decisions around players without ML's input then surely there's no doubt we will be looking for a new manager over the summer.


Pretty much my thoughts as soon as I saw he had signed, pretty much confirmed for me the the rumours of unrest and him leaving in the summer were true.

Laudrup is a coach who brought along Tutumulu and became a manager.We took his contact book away so Huw is now in charge of that side of things.

Are Laudrup's shortcomings at previous clubs now repeating themselves here?

So someone in a position of power at the club thinks Emnes is a Premier League player and can get us to sign him.

That is all kinds of scary.


Even if Jenkins made the signing, he doesn't pick the team. If Laudrup doesn't want Emnes to play, then he doesn't play. It doesn't make any sense for the chairman to buy a player that the manager doesn't want.

Doesn't say much for Laudrup as a Manager,but he's honest enough to admit it publicly and for that you must give him some credence.Jenkins should have been wrapped over the knuckles if not more for messing up the Ki loan,how much is he on £200K+,matter swept under the table.


My understanding is that Jenkins asked Laudrup if he wanted Ki back whilst we could recall him and received no answer. The two communicate by email which is worrying. He will be gone before the Cardiff game in my opinion

Don't tell it to me, Phil.

"Back him or sack him" is another oldie but goodie perhaps worth pulling out of the hat.

Well that unity doesn't seem to there at our club at the moment Phil. The board need to take their share of responsibility on what is going on at the moment.

I'm pretty sure Phil understands that, but he appears to have settled into a style of posting where he only asks questions; the cynics amongst us might suspect he has one eye on page views.

I think it was pretty obvious from Leigh Dineen's comments on twitter Friday who was behind Emnes coming back to us

'Im chuffed if marvin comes back to us. It is who and what you know. Dont ever underestimate that'

Not ML fair to say

Oh,..Dave, what's occuring?

Emnes was signed late on transfer deadline day. It hardly suggests that anyone insisted on him being a number one target otherwise he'd have been here weeks ago.

If our attempts at getting a better winger failed and we wanted to add another one quickly then I don't see a problem with Jenkins getting Emnes in. Quite franky he can't be a worse judge of a loan striker/winger than Laudrup

I'd say so yes, we've been laughing at Cardiff for similar on goings. Surely the chairman signing players the manager has no knowledge of is worrying.

We were speaking to a well know board member over in Valencia and one of the things he told us was about Emnes and what he called Jenkins obsession with him and getting him back down here.
He and others just couldn't understand it.

For me this is confirmation that all is not well down there as this is quite clearly a Jenkins decision with the manager having no input what so ever.


Cardiff showed yesterday that signing two proven players Jones (who many derided on here) and Zaha can make to the team. Likewise with Hull signing Long.
After yesterday I must admit I am beginning to fear for our PL survival

You see no problem that the chairman pretty much takes it upon himself to go after a target with the knowledge of the manager.

Maybe he should start picking the team as well then.

I heard it, but he didn't say he knew nothing of his signing. He said he knew little of him as a player but people at the club did and felt he could help us based on his previous time here.

There is a world of difference between that and signing a player behind a managers back.

a) ML didn't know we were signing him?
b) or didn't know much about him as a player?

a) is worrying, I would be shocked if it was done behind ML back
b) as a last resort after chasing ML targets (if he had any) and to add an extra body with ML consent, i'm not too bothered to be honest

If Jenkins says to Laudrup, "we're signing a player called Emnes who me and Leigh think is really good", Laudrup strictly speaking knew about it.

But what is the practical difference between that and signing him without Laudrup knowing anything at all?

Absolutely nothing.
