    When did the East Stand at Highfield Road get built?

    My nephew asked me yesterday about the construction of the old East Stand, as he thought that its opening may have been his first game at Highfield Road, but since my memory is pretty much sieve like I couldn't put a date on it? I used to go up Swan Lane on the way home from work most evenings...

    Chris Eagles?

    Heard on the CWR prematch chatter that Chris Eagles, according to some internet sites, is/has signed for us. Considering his wages at Bolton only 12 months ago were widely reported as being £30,000 per week, one would assume that he would only be on a small fraction of that figure should he...

    Car parking in the Ricoh area.

    Just a reminder to all those intending to drive to Fridays game that the matchday exclusion zone is still in operation. My mother-in-law lives off Holbrooks Lane and the Parking Wardens were out in force for the Jehovas bash last weekend-my missus counted 10 cars down her Mums road with tickets...

    Might be interesting?

    There is a programme on BBC2 tonight at 00:50 til 01:30 on the rise and fall of Swansea City and how the fans took ownership of the club and turned it around. Not suggesting that is a possible course of action for CCFC but might be an interesting watch? One for the night owls or hit the record...

    So do they read the forums?

    This is the latest e-mail from CCFC. Is it a bid to attract the "lost generation" of supporters? Perhaps they will come and collect the kids and take them to Sickfields?

    ACL to sue NTFC, what happens now?

    Are ACL still proposing to take legal action against NTFC or has this been dropped? Now that a game has actually taken place at Sixsheds, I'm presuming if any proposed threat of legal action against NTFC has to become a reality and the papers would be served on Monday morning? Hopefully ACL...

    Tim Fisher: The Charlton perspective?

    Just out of interest I signed up to one of the Charlton boards asking what if anything they thought about Fishers time at the Valley? http://intothevalley.proboards.com/board/2/covered-end Did invite them to have a look at our forum but warned any ichthyomaniacs - Fish(er) lovers that it...

    McDonalds 28 day loan?

    When does McDonalds 28 day loan spell end? Scored again yesterday, I think that we need all our assets(?) on board for the run in. Like him or not, he could give us another attacking option rather than having to use a rookie like Wilson as an impact player?

    How much??

    Interesting article on the BBC internet news pages, lists prices for season tickets, matchday costs and even pies across the divisions from the top down! For the best part we don't come off too bad with cheaper pricing than some League 2 teams. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-19842397 Psst...

    Parking at the Ricoh?

    I know this is a bit of a random but when we first moved to the Ricoh can anyone confirm my thoughts that the Parking Restriction Zone around the stadium would only come into effect if the gate was expected to be greater than 15,000. This has been bugging me for a few years now and I am sure I'm...

    Norwood to Barnsley?

    On the BBC Teletext: Keith Hill optimistic over signing Oliver Norwood from ManUre. Ah well thats us out of the equation then. Another club punching above their weight, signed Mido and amongst others so what about "the living within your means" rules? Their attendances are poor, like...

    Transfer embargo lifted.

    Just had an e-mail from the club, the tranfer embargo has been lifted leaving the club to trade as normal. How convenient after our number one target has signed for someone else-wankers!! As a 2012-13 Season Ticket holder we wanted you to be the first to know we are no longer under a transfer...

    Alex Nimely

    Just a thought...... I was thinking, have we asked Man City for a "Buy it now" price for Alex Nimely? I was only considering this point thinking back to Ranson allegedly had a price in principal for buying Jordan Henderson back in the day should he become available. Given that young Alex is...

    A different approach?

    Just a thought..... Why not shift the target to boycott the clubs sponsors City Link, Tesco, Lloyds pharmacy even the good old Telegraph (Mirror Group) and any others that advertise or have a corporate facility at the Ricoh. These companies would surely have to be leaning on the "board"...
