    Bury gone

    I don't see how that has contributed to this situation - as a business they have outspent their income, thus generating an unsustainable debt. Doesn't matter what your income is, if you spend beyond it then you'll be in trouble regardless of what the big boys earn. That's like me spending my...

    Bury gone

    I wouldn't expect an immediate statement from the EFL confirming expulsion. I would guess it's more likely that a special board meeting will be held in the next 24-48 hours at which the executive will formally vote to ratify expulsion. Only once that's done, will an announcement be made. No...

    @Nick any chance you can merge this thread with the other one on the CCFC forum please?

    Bury

    Got my fingers crossed for them, but with a 5pm deadline and the takeover having apparently fallen through (despite some great optimism in the last few days) it's looking very grim for them. EDIT - this is one their website from a few minutes ago: " Bury Football Club would like to issue the...

    Homophobic chanting

    No doubt there will be some people saying that homophobic chanting is "part of the game" and anyone offended is a snowflake.

    Could be interesting in the pubs and train station today

    So.....was it carnage? Or did nothing at all happen?

    Match Thread Portsmouth vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 20th Aug

    Chuffed with that, and more importantly how strongly we've started this season. I thought we'd be lower mid-table but early signs are that we can be a challenging force for the top places.

    Match Thread Portsmouth vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Tuesday 20th Aug

    Great stuff boys, so proud of this especially with us having men sent off. If we can nick this it might go down as our most heroic win ever!!!!

    Watford Away Cup Tix Details

    That was a dire 0-0 in Spring 2012 if memory serves, I was there for every gripping minute of it...

    Watford Away Cup Tix Details

    Anyone else a bit surprised that demand would be high for an early-round league cup game away at Watford on a weeknight?

    Could be interesting in the pubs and train station today

    In reality I bet nothing of any note happened.

    Match Thread Bolton Wanderers vs. Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 10th Aug

    Why so? I wouldn't have been desperately unhappy with a point and a clean sheet if you'd offered that to me at 2.59pm today.

    Confirmed Ins and Outs 2019/2020 Summer

    Turnover in football squads is something I find hard to understand. Looking at the starting XI for the Notts County play-off second leg, 7 of the lineup have now left. That was just one season ago. Are we typical of other clubs at this level or is this a particularly high turnover?

    Junior Brown

    That's putting a bit strongly in both cases, particularly Brown's! Plenty of time for us to start putting these rumours about!!!

    Peter Vincenti training as a ref...

    Can't speak for FP but I for one wouldn't consider putting myself forward as a ref - the main reason being the amount of name-calling and abuse that comes their way from players and fans, starting at pub team level upwards. I personally don't have the emotional solidity (or inclination) to take...

    Peter Vincenti training as a ref...

    I had totally forgotten about PV despite him being on the books with us up to about 15 months ago, which shows how little impact he had for us (especially later in his season with us). Let's hope his performances as a ref are more effective than his performances for us as a player - especially...

    Bright Enobakhare

    Sorry to ask this after nearly 36 pages but.....is the general feeling on this forum that he's likely to sign, or not? Seems not but I ain't reading this thread all the way from the start, not at this time of the evening.

    Hoying

    Is "hoying" the term for when you throw an Olympic gold-medal winning British cyclist (and knight of the realm) over a balcony and into the lower tier of a football stadium?
