I had the pleasure yesterday to attend the Thanks A Million reception.
It was a lovely event well and very well attended by all players, coaching staff, Malky, Chairman and Tan himself.
I represented a local charity which I have mentioned on here previously, the Big Wrap, and was blown away when Tan pledged to support us again for another year. I just thought I should put on here a public thanks, as fans we knock the club but today credit is due. The support we have been given completely changes our prospects and ability to help local families and I'm the other 49 charities would also like to show their appreciation.

Big Up Cardiff City, Thank you Vincent Tan.

PS I had a chat with the Chair, Mehmet Dalman, and he came across as genuinely interested and a really nice guy, same can be said for Malky. The players not so active but that's understandable I'm sure they have attended so many of these events recently. They did take the time to sign autographs for the kids to be fair.

Not to my knowledge, but they might release.
Sorry a few too many to remember, it'd be one massive generation game

No problem. My wife works for Marie Curie and I was wondering about them.
