THE financial backing of businessman Tan Sri Vincent Tan has proved immense for the Barclays Premier League side Cardiff City Football Club. The difference Tan’s financial backing has made to the Welsh outfit proved invaluable as fans of this so-called sleeping giant waited for more than half a century — 51 years to be exact — to make their way back into the top flight of English football.
With a sound financial standing, a squad hungry for success and a manager who has learned to deal with the pressures of the English game, the team has started positively in their debut this season in the Premiership.
