This is an example of really bad sub decisions.

FFS Godden.

You know we’re not allowed to ever criticise Sheaf but this isn’t his best game.

Bah.

Eccles and Godden off. Van and Haji on.

If our away kit was ready, I’m pretty sure it wouldn’t be two different shades of all blue on the pitch.

How is this not a kit clash?

Watching this just outside Cork Eire. (Note to all, Sky Go works in Eire atm. Only saying this because I thought I’d need VPN or IFollow). Starting line up looks like MR has had a bang on the head - can only assume the idea is to use the subs to max effect and go for pace in the break second...

Or he stays and plays and keeps his options open: 1) Scenario promotion: he can demand £40k per week from us and a fat signing fee and be a PL player. 2) Scenario no-promotion: he can leave on a free, get £40k (or whatever), and a big signing fee and be a top flight player somewhere. Much...

Mark Robins is a little fibber isn’t he? Presser: “any more signings Mark?” -“no” Couple of hours later smashes the transfer record.

Maybe. Then Gyok as well. Just back envelope, for fun to keep minds occupied whilst we keep checking the CCFC website to see if Wright has signed: Walker 10 Dabo 5 Dacosta 5 Waghorn 13 k/week£ Gyok 7 40? Loanee wages? Suppose they count in the mix. I think VanEwijk and Sims must be on...

Cash is King. One “feary” theory at the outset was that DK had taken on (£30m? £60m? whatever) of debt at a point where we had saleable assets of (and this is just plucking numbers tbh) of £30m or whatever to balance the books. It would have been a disappointing but not hugely shocking...

That’s how I see it too. Wasps, theoretically, could have continued if they could secure somewhere to play and find funding. The w***s “brand” had / has some kind of value in terms of sponsorship and they do have some kind of fan base that could have created a revenue stream. Granted, nothing...

This is an old thread which I thought I might bump. One or two posters on here have expressed a sneaky feeling that Ashley is somehow waiting in the wings or is the “silent backer” of CCFC. Is this realistic or totally fanciful? Some things to consider: Frasers could just possibly have...

Since we seem to have mirrored Luton with a one year lag over the past 5 years or so, us winning the Playoffs (16/1 oddschecker) is a sensible prediction.

£700k for a 32 year old striker? Snatch hand straight off.

SISU did spend money at the outset to be fair. They saw players such as Westwood as assets to sell. When Westwood refused to sign a new contract, they realised their business model / balance sheet was for the birds and things fell apart from that exact point in time. Afterwards they were...

Always think of him when watching reruns of Only Fools and Horses “…Trevor Francis track suits from a mush in Shepherds Bush….” So nearly a sky blue apparently. Will be missed.

I still don’t think Waghorn was a good signing on paper and said so at the time: 1) we had Godden as an experienced striker, Walker, Tavares etc as backup. 2) he took up a big chunk of wage budget that could have been used elsewhere in the team more effectively. 3) Eg, Using the Waghorn...

Jordan Henderson (ex player basis a bit sketchy but nonetheless) off to Saudi for £12m plus add ons, age 33. They are throwing cash about down there. TBF in the World Cup the Arab teams looked surprisingly capable - just saying.
