Old footage?
Possibly , but strange to use footage of him walking through a door rather than a clip taken from when Cardiff were last on sky
It doesn't matter what manager we appoint, unless RD and KM get out of our club. If they remain, they will fiddle and interfere, and whatever a new man tries to do will be undermined. I don't want Charlton to fail, but if getting Nobby Vinegar and another six months of poor results means that RD will bog off and we get a new owner in, then that will be fine by me. What we as fans cannot do is support this regime, even if Ryan Giggs comes in and we win our first ten games.
But I really think that success in getting back to the Championship will actually improve the chances of our excuse of a director to sell-up.
Do you really believe that we have a chance of going up @Shrew? I mean, we know that Igor and JBG are leaving, and also that pretty much any decent offer for any other player will be accepted (Lookman, Cousins, Pope, Fox, Teixeira, Bauer, Kashi, etc). Even if RD can't sell all of them, their wages will be such a strain (especially with the CARD embargo on season tickets and in stadium sales) that they will all be dumped out on loan just to get them off the wage bill, and to ensure we remain within the FFP salary cap (how ironic it would be if RD, such a fan of FFP, falls foul of it due to his incompetence at getting us relegated...). Would RD be more likely to sell us as a Championship outfit, or a League 2 shambles? And if so, which is more likely?
Knowing the complete and utter shambles Coventry were in last year but with a few lucky loans they managed to get three points of the play offs. Squads are really weak in Div 1, a lot of clubs rely on loans. So with a decent manager and dof in, yes I do see it as a possibility, nothing more then that.
38% win ratio for Slade over his career. Inspiring stuff.
I'm not that excited by the appointment of Slade but at the very least he looks like a solid manager who has done a decent job often on a very limited/no budget.
I doubt this will happen, but hopefully RD will back him and more importantly not interfere with any of daily running of the team.

Is Slade a lifelong Forest fan who has been commuting from Nottingham to Cardiff because his family is established there by the Trent, and his kids settled in local schools?

https://www.skybet.com/football/specials/manager-specials It's pretty good considering he was at lower level clubs.
42% win ratio at Orient.

Don't see this potential appointment as a change of strategy, more a partial admittance of complete and utter failure.
Pardew won Premier League Manager of the Year didn't he?
Does every club reveal it before June?
Ridiculous (unsurprisingly)
can't see reference to our budget
Squirrel was quoted we'd be in top six of the highest budget.
What do the taffs know anyway?
We also don't know if we'll be able to sell or loan out unwanted players meaning they'll be taking up part of the budget.
Forest fans expecting Slade to join them according to this link.
Mind you, Slade is 20/1, 11th favourite on Skybet for the Forest job, so I can't see how that is true.
No chance we'd pay more salary. They are in the Championship. They're Forest.
I know he won c**t of the year for ten years running.
