    Refreshing

    If we can survive this season, we should be better placed to consolidate our Championship status next year. Those who might still dream of back to back promotions need first to realise that it just won't happen. And, even if by some fluke it did, we'd find every single fixture would be a much...

    Kastaneer

    To MR's credit, he doesn't seem be holding back the youngsters. He may even be using Kastaneer as an example of what happens if you don't train hard to use your talent. Whereas Shipley has played a full season in League 2, two in League one and now looks set to be fully involved as squad...

    Kastaneer

    That is partly my point. Kastaneer must have started his senior career as a 16 year old, Walsh as a 19 year old and Dabo as 21 year old. It seems to be less a question of him never going to have a career, but that his career started very early and now seems to have stalled as his early...

    Kastaneer

    A lot of nonsense here about Kasta having hardly played any games. I guess it was his record of appearances in top division Dutch and German teams that led to his very high FIFA ranking. Kastaneer (aged 24): Games Top Tier: 52 2nd Tier: 31 Lower Tier: 19 All Internationals: 21 TOTAL 123 (16...

    Hamer vs Walsh

    Presumably with Dabo on the bench, just in case? ;-)

    Well, that's settled the Max or Baka debate. What a relief! ;-)

    Then it leaves Gary Freeman of the Jersey Bulls, the best manager of all time!

    6th= top scorer on loan in their top division. But he had the benefit of Ruben Lameiras alongside him in the Famalicao team!

    Bournemouth predictions?

    Perhaps I was being too subtle. But I just felt like celebrating the fact that we changed from a bottom half of the table side (13th) to being a top half side (12th) this afternoon without kicking a ball. In fact it was highly likely we would. As long as either Norwich or Bournemouth won...

    Bournemouth predictions?

    Two top half of the table teams. So nothing much in it, then? Perhaps a chance here for the side that's 12th against the team that's 4th and due to lose for the first time this season? It not like we are no-hopers in this game. Not like we're playing the team at the top of the table...

    I think 4 wins in 13 games would make sure of survival. After 39 games we would have 12 wins / 36 points. In the remaining 7 games at the same rate we would take that to 14 wins / 42 points. No team in the championship had less than 8 draws last season. So our minimum total for 4 wins in 13...

    Not sure October is much different to most months. Together the teams we play in October have averaged 1.75 points a game this season. In February we play Watford, Cardiff. Norwich, Brentford and Swansea (average 1.8). In March we play Middlesbrough, Derby, Rotherham, Luton and Wycombe...

    Whereas we've got a council with a huge grudge against the club that will sell it off to anyone who wants it, provided upsets CCFC!

    Over the years we've been a bit of a bogey team for you. That's unusual because in most leagues we've played in about half the teams we play have been our bogey teams, and hardly any see us as theirs. You were much the better side when I watched you play West Brom at Oakwell last season, but I...
