Not too fussed if this happens. Scores goals but often anonymous and when he isn't at his peak (January) we might as well be playing with ten men.

Shame he never realised his full potential, but not too saddened to see him leave.

Whatever people say about Alfie, you'll struggle to find many better strikers at this level. The frustrating thing for me is that I think he would've been more than happy to stay if we'd been in a position to offer him a new contract. We'll be massively short of strikers if he goes, and we won't have much resources to replace him.

Not particularly surprising, and if we can get in the right replacement it'd probably a good squad move. But for a team that doesn't make many chances, it's near suicide to sell your best goalscorer. Especially when you've got no money to replace them.

Oh yay, we can have Pog lumbering about costing the earth and occasionally scoring. Otherwise we're relying on BLOLackman, Samuel or HROFLK to score our goals.

Happy with this. If we can get £250k for him and bring in Lita and cureton on frees we're laughing.

Yes, if you're a fúcking retard.


Might as well run on the pitch to celebrate nothing much at the same time.

Despite not making many chances, if we get a new owner, Adkins could get the players he needs to recreate the football philosophy that he had at Southampton, which would mean that we could be creating lots of chances, so I reckon Pog and Blackman could be handy, plus a potential new striker who actually contributes to play instead of trying to play the offside trap everytime a player gets the ball and moan if a ball over the top or through the defence isn't played

And those LOL and ROFL puns were disgustingly bad

TRANSFER NEWS: #CardiffCity can confirm the signing of Federico Macheda on a three-year-deal.

Proves nothing about Alf, but makes it a little less likely.

Don't worry me like that!

I thought that deal was being done anyway, so unless ALF was a back-up for Macheda then I doubt it. Especially if they've got past the offer phase, I doubt they would've done that if they weren't intending to buy, could have had the rest of the summer if they were going to sign one or the other.

(Although to counter my own point maybe they wanted to move whilst we were vulnerable)

Only 12 months left on his contract. I'd rather keep him for that amount, but it is only the Daily Mail claiming that price..

Unless I'm very much mistaken, which is possible, this is the first player we've sold to Cardiff since Robin Friday?
