In an unusual scenario, Steve Thompson has advised his fellow Scotsman Kris Boyd to aim higher than the Bluebirds if he is to move on from Rangers!
Cardiff City had a bid turned down for the prolific Scotsman turned down, but we remain hopeful that a deal could be done and that McNaughton and former Rangers players Thompson and Rae could persuade Boyd to join us.
Thompson made his comments to The Scotsman:
‘If I was Boydy I would be looking more at the Premiership and that’s only if he wants to go.’
‘You just have to take one look at his scoring record to realise it’s quite unbelievable.’
‘I don’t know what Kris will decide to do but there’s no doubt he’s capable of playing at the very highest level.’
Thompson has fallen out previously with Dave Jones and remains on the transfer list with his CCFC future looking distinctly unclear. This could be a swipe at the Bluebirds management, an attempt to give himself another chance in the first team or simply a straight-talking Scotsman giving his true opinion.
Eitehr way, it’s not particularly useful or maybe even professional for Thommo to tell players to aim higher than his current employer….

thommo should shut the feck up, he just doesnt want to sit on the bench… can we sell him already?
I’d be happy if this signals the end of Thompson’s time with us – I never could understand the enthusiasm which greeted his trundling on late in the 2nd half in games only to fall over or be penalised for thumping opposing defenders .. time to say goodbye, Mr. Thompson.
he is speaking the truth and you boys cant handle it how can a club that is in so much debt bid so much sounds like more dodgy dealings by that w****r Ridsdale up THE JACKS see you all soon
ok, thommo and taylor can both shut the feck up.
and who are the jacks linked with – some more unknown Spaniards – woohoo!
yeah like Scotland and Bodde were unknown Scotland scored 31 goals Bodde was purchased for 85 grand and now worth 2 million plus not bad for unknowns you can purchase your players in the over inflated British transfer market we will get good quality players on the cheap AGAIN Martinez has more knowledge in his little finger than D Jones has in his whole body didnt see his name mentioned for the Blackburn job now you shut the feck up nite nite
lol – the jack intellect is amusing. p.s. scotland failed his trial with us, and 3 other scottish clubs. What a player to lead your line! Even feeney scored in league 1….
yeah league 1 is not *****. hope you are ready for relegation back there, then tell me how good martinez is
no surely not attwool – martinez is a god – he must be – he was a poor player and got promotion from a poor quality league, signing some spanish nobodys – he’s a genius! You forget that idiots like Lennie Lawrence can get promoted – they get found out. All i can do is laugh at the deluded jacks…..!
haha, cant wait til cardiff tear them apart 4-0. A boyd hattrick ant ledley gettin 1 in on du vries too while scotland plays like *****
oh yeah and thommo pouts on the bench, and taylor wonders why the ***** he supports swansea.

Martinez has soooo many spaniards in the side becasue of his stint on Sky commentating on the games. he only does it to boost his money up from the sh** wage the jacks pay him – at least the jacks know his value!
