They will both end up in non league football. Until then though we'll give the opportunity to gift goals to the opposition in the off chance that one of them, might, just might, generate a transfer fee for our owners.
It's too easy to point at TM's previous record of second half of the season slides. TM worked a miracle in the first stage of last season. From mid November onwards it all went pear shaped. Why? The bizarre appointment of the academic Anderson. The touting for sale of Maddison with Anderson...
Lower league dogs with legs. Clarke, Foley and Ricketts are all in their early to mid thirties and past their best. Ask yourself why the likes of Rochdale and Fleetwood can do it and we can't.
Totally disagree. We need a complete clear out and we need to bring lower league dogs who can tough it out at places like Hartlepool and Yeovil. Why do players need to care about the club? They need to be professionals who care about their own personal performances. All of this 'one of our own'...

You can rid of Slade and bring in whoever you like but we will not stay up with this squad. For next season we need a complete clear out all of our tippy tappy footballers and we need to bring in some lower league dogs who will tough it out at places like Morecambe and Carlisle. This squad...
Slade isn't blameless but our player recruitment in recent seasons has been dire. This has been identified by Fisher but I suspect the plan for recruitment has been largely devised by SISU as part of their plan to strip every last penny they can from the club. The plan, developing our own...
Fair comments with regard to the players named above. The problem with Mowbray was that he felt shafted by SISU when they made to the decision to sell Maddison in the January transfer window last year and did not reinvest in the playing squad. It gave him and what was at the time a talented...
I will keep going because it's something I can share with my 14 year old son. It's him and others of his age I really feel for. When I was a year or two older than my son is now I used to go to watch City at places like Anfield and Old Trafford. Now it's trips to the likes of Oldham and...
Eoin Doyle went there as Paul Cook is Portsmouth manager and Doyle previously played for Cook at Chesterfield. A real shame because Doyle would have scored goals. As it stands we just don't have the goalscorer to get us out of trouble.
Depressing but true. It's clear that all SISU care about going forward is running the club at break even and not wanting to write off their investment on an exit from CCFC. Unsure as to how much and exactly where this investment lies within SISU's books but clearly this is an issue.
I think the most interesting point that Fisher made last night was about SISU not wishing to crystallise the loss they have made in CCFC. Surely this is the only reason why SISU are still here and I think he rather let the cat out of the bag on this. I guess we're just at the mercy of accounting...
