    Roland does not need money. With the new Premier League deal, prices for average players, particularly British ones, are going to double next season. Better to hold and sell in the summer.

    I'd pay good money to be in a room watching Roly, Meire and Tan sorting this deal out.

    Just copied this from Wales on line which was published just 30 minutes ago-:

    We have some information from our sources about a potentially significant Cardiff City story this afternoon.

    We are checking it out and hope to have details shortly for you.

    Keep in touch for the latest.

    Why has this only come in on 14th Jan - what if they had bought him yesterday ?

    Maybe they'd have to give him back

  • Hopefully we don't sell him to someone else. Can't wait to see him in a Charlton shirt again

    Maybe Riga can sort out whatever problems Watt had with the other players. Clean slate and start again. An in-form Tony Watt would be a real asset to the club right now.

    Transfer turned down for Watt ??
  • The best placed plans of mice and men and Roland
  • I for one would be pleased to see him back better then any strikers we have got, surely managed properly he has to be an asset to any championship side so why not us

    If the rumours are true that he's had punch-ups with other players, not sure why people would want him back.

    We need the team to gel together to win points, Watt was dire before he left and a disruption behind closed doors (apparently).

    Riga's probably better equipped to get the best out of Watt. He's been here before and will have a few of the squad who know him and remember when he kept us up so will have some respect. Unlike Bentos who would have been a laughing stock from day 1.

    Maybe we can still make use of him yet? We need a decent striker thats for sure
  • Cardiff placed under transfer embargo
  • I for one would be pleased to see him back better then any strikers we have got, surely managed properly he has to be an asset to any championship side so why not us

    I would be very surprised to see Watt in a Charlton shirt ever again. I don't think he is the answer to our problems and him coming back would probably make things worse within the team.

    I wouldn't want him back.

    No doubt he doesn't want to be back here either.
    When he rocks up and isn't starting games his temperament will no doubt get the better of him yet again.

    From Wales on Line-:

    Full Cardiff City statement

    Cardiff City Football Club can confirm that it has been made subject to an FFP embargo during the January 2016 transfer window. Whilst extremely disappointed that the Football League has decided to take this action, we will remain co-operative and compliant with the League’s position in respect of Financial Fair Play.

    Having fully disclosed all matters in respect of our FFP position for 2014/15 and having taken independent expert advice, it is our firmly-held view that Cardiff City Football Club has indeed complied with the FFP requirements for season 2014/15 - contrary to the League’s position. As such, further advice will be sought, prior to a decision being made internally as to whether or not an appeal will be lodged.

    The embargo, now in place (albeit subject to possible appeal), will stay in effect for the remainder of the January 2016 transfer window. Cardiff City Football Club again expects to trade within the set FFP limits for 2015/16 and therefore anticipates full participation in the summer 2016 transfer window.

    So, Roland basis his grand plan on some form of strong Financial Fair Play, which turns out, the FA hasn't got the stomach to implement properly and many of Roland's preparations fall embarrassingly flat. But, when they do, in fact, use measures against an infringing club, it turns out to prohibit Roland from offloading an unwanted starlet and raising necessary capital in a moment of crisis.

    Roland Duchatelet: like King Midas, but absolutely shite.
