    The Next 6 Games will define the season

    We can still take 54 points from our remaining games, so we're not "definitely" down as some people keep insisting. However, I said a few games ago that if we didn't beat either Fleetwood or Northampton AND failed to make a game changing signing in the window, I'd begin expecting us to go down...

    New stadium in 2026?

    If it ends up like the Olympic Stadium - great stadium now, but not great as a football ground except for the odd showcase game - then no thanks. If it ends up like Man City's ground, which hosted the 2002 Commonwealth Games and was then converted into a football ground, then yes as it's a...

    The Next 6 Games will define the season

    Arguably, the biggest problem is that we can't score. No goals in the last 3 league games, in which 2 of the opponents were very poor sides on terrible runs of form. I think the season is defined already. I never like to see people say that we are "certain" to go down - we've got 54 points to...

    Michael Folivi

    Be careful what you wish for. Remember the transfer window deadline day where we signed Bell, McPake and Lee Sawyer?

    Transfer rumours in or out

    Boom- well in there. Yes, I had forgotten this but he not only played for Spurs briefly in 2012 (so playing with Bale) but also had a brief spell at Sunderland and was there at the same time as Bendtner. Working that out was quite literally more enjoyable than sitting around waiting for news...

    Transfer rumours in or out

    OK while we hang around waiting, lemme ask you all a question I overheard in the pub tonight. Took me about 10 mins to figure out the answer. I am an ex-Premier League footballer who has won the Premier League and also the Champions League. I have played alongside Alan Shearer, Rio Ferdinand...

    What's happened to Mark venus?

    Jones is a good prospect, in fairness, although Slade seems loathe to use him.

    What's happened to Mark venus?

    I would not be in the least bit surprised if we get an announcement in due course that MV has left.........same thing happened with Anderson, it was quiet for a good few weeks (possibly while he was serving his notice / gardening leave). Whether or not Slade says next season, Slade or the new...

    Rather humbled

    I support protests per se and in fact was in favour of all of them until Saturday, but unfortunately some of the people causing the trouble (sat right next to us) seemed to be a few spotty kids having a laugh and enjoying causing a bit of aggo, not principled protesters fighting for the food of...

    Record there for the taking

    I did just find out that CCFC holds the record for most consecutive games without scoring, back in 1919-20 we went 11 games without a goal. Wonder how many of the squad had dropped dead in the great influenza epidemic or got shipped out to the Russian Civil War??? Still, our current run of...

    Willis gone, Exodus begins!

    Well good luck Jordan, thanks for your efforts with the Sky Blues. I saw you on debut at home to Southampton in the relegation season and you came on as a sub, played right back if I remember right and did quite well. FWIW, he is the last player on our books who played for us in the...

    It's all gone quiet over there - Transfers...

    We have got three on loan - Reilly, Vernam and Rawson. 6 loan players left at the start of Jan (McBean, Wright, Agyei, Sterry, Page and McCann). Once you attribute the Sordell money to the signings of Beavon and Reilly, plus the Derby lads who must have been on fairly similar money to a couple...

    It's all gone quiet over there - Transfers...

    Please don't froget we have signed 6 players this window - more than most. Yes, we do need more especially muscle up front, incisive wide player and a battering ram in midfield, but most windows have a few late signings so we may end up with 8 new bods in for the window overall.
