Today feels like a pivotal moment in our summer so in true oohaah fashion...

Warnock has proved himself to be a good manager - maybe even a great manager at getting teams promoted on a budget. All managers have different styles and Warnock has his own, but ultimately they are able to see a path from where they are to where they wish to get to and are able to act on it.
It isn't that he gets found out when he gets to the Premier League, it is just that the path isn't so easy to follow there when you have to compete against silly money. There is no way he is a better fit for us right now than Bowyer, but Bowyer may not be our manager next week!
Not sure if Warnock gets found out in the Prem - he's never really had a decent budget. Cardiff almost stayed up last season with a very basic squad.
I agree. I think part of the problem is he over achieves with lesser players so more is needed when he gets his team to the Premier League, and as you say he needs a decent budget to address it.
I don't like the criticism of how his teams play also. It is all part of the same judgement of how you achieve your goals with what you have. I'm sure if he had big money to spend his teams would set up differently. I think it is called good management.
Warnock still has a property in Beckenham I believe and liked the area when he was down here with Palace. Maybe Dalman would like to have him involved if his takeover was successful, but I doubt that would be as first team manager.
As happyvalley isn't here yet: 1731 was quite a dull year. This would appear to have been a highlight:
Dr. Richard Bentley, the King's librarian and the House's owner, saves the only copy of the Codex Alexandrinus, carrying it under one arm as he leaps from a window.
2019, Mr. Richard Murray, the King's arse licker, saves the only copy of Bowyer's contract, carrying it under one arm as he leaps naked from a window, his scales rattling in the breeze
For Mehmet Dalman to put out that Statement yesterday then turn up as the owner of Cafc, days, weeks or months later would be similar to Dowie telling Palace fans and Simon Jordan that I'm only leaving to go back up North to be with my family. Before the weird press conference where Murray was handed a writ and Dowie face turned ugly.

The good times (well, before the season actually started...)

As has been pointed out, he only said "Right at this moment in time I'm really focused on preparing for the new season with Cardiff" It happens in football all the time regarding players, kiss the badge one day, sitting in the stands of their new club the following day.
That doesn't necessarily mean imo that an announcement can't now be made that a deal has been done and he'll take over in a couple of weeks
Bowyer and coaching staff agree new improved contract with Duchatelet Today
Dalman's bid is accepted after agreeing to paying RD some extra Dosh when/if we reach the Premier.(covered by TV money so Mehmet bites the bullet)
Dalman brings Warnock to be Director of Football to work with Bowyer, Gallen and JJ and uses his 50 years in football to network his contacts.
The best possible Scenario.
Why would agreeing to pay Duchatelet extra dosh in the future be a dream scenario? The bloke's a greedy leech. I want this deal to be cut n dried based on a market price and no more.

Good luck today

Wrong thread.

A robin has just landed right next to me. It is a sign I tell you. We’ve only gone and cracked it. Put the bloody kettle on.
Be interesting to find out though
how old is he now - mid 70s?
