Cardiff chairman Peter Ridsdale has offered to quit the club because he is fed up with abuse from supporters.
He confirmed to BBC Wales he feels he is being driven out by fans who he says want Sam Hammam back in charge of the club.
"I am getting more stick for saving Cardiff City than I did when things went wrong at Leeds," said Ridsdale.
"If the fans want Sam Hammam back in charge, as many of them are telling me, then maybe they should have him."

That was carried over from Hammam though, apparently - he says he's put £500k of his own money into the club to keep it afloat, as well as easing up on the financial problems they had (they were losing £9m a year) and freeing up money to buy players (like Chopra, for instance). I don't know all the details, but if what he says is true ( ) then yes, he has pretty much saved them. |

Dunno what the story is here. However, surely it should be no surprise to him that nobody trusts him as far as they could throw him!  Got Fowler scoring now  Now just need to get him and JFH both scoring in the same matches!  |

ungrateful sheep shaggers, and asking for Sam back!  squeal piggy, squeal! I'd happily see both Ridsdale and Hammam booted out of the Cardiff region forever! But y'know, neither did us any harm (in the short term). It'd be nice someday to have a non-dodgy chairman mind |
