Tim Hartley, chair of Cardiff City Supporters’ Trust, said today that he welcomed the announcement today of new funding for the football club and restructuring of its existing debt.
“This is great news. We hope this deal will lead to long term stability for the club rather than be a short-term fix.
“We are aware that Dato’ Chan Tien Ghee (TG) has shown great interest in the playing fortunes of Cardiff City, not only travelling to games but keeping up to date with club news through the internet.
“When the Trust met TG he stressed that he was committed to Cardiff City. He made it clear that links with supporters was important to him and, we believe, it is vital that the voice of genuine fans is heard in the boardroom.
“The Trust now looks forward, with our friends at the Cardiff City Supporters’ Club, to building a long term and productive relationship.
“In recent months Cardiff City has hit the headlines for its off-field activities as much as those onfield. We hope that today’s announcement means everyone can now concentrate on supporting the boys’ as they bid to win promotion to the Premiership.”
