    Best Football Book You've Read ?

    Niall Quinn's auto biography is really good was about 100 quid at Arsenal hiding his bus fare under a stone to get to training so he was not tempted to gamble it!

    Coventry City 'can't survive in League One' and have their priorities wrong

    95% of posters on here have been saying pretty much that for some time.

    Anyone go to the Wasps game today?

    So before the game we are saying the bad pitch will favour Bradford? Is that the same Bradford team that put 4 past chelsea on a perfect pitch?

    Bournemouth

    But thats the dream for owners and Fans alike. They have a route to compete with the best. Sport is competitive so if you don't want to be the best you can you have no place in the football league. If you buy a lottery ticket do you purchase it with the intention of winning or just supporting...

    Papering the crowd?

    They will get a booking fee on the transaction yes , but it was promoted through Ticketmaster not WASPS. Free tickets are free tickets to the public, the end product is to watch WASPS but i would suspect that this part of the overall deal struck between Ticketmaster and WASPS so in the...

    commentary on SBS& L group 2014 accounts

    OSB58 , as an exercise of pure conjecture and looking at SISU's investments as a whole i.e. across the group (not just the companies that as direct associated with CCFC) is there any benefit to them pursuing this strategy?

    Papering the crowd?

    its also a very used adopted strategy used to stimulate demand, most car companies use these techniques. Offer a good deal to the customer to encourage business. Ticket master also have a stake in this deal so I would expect that as part of the deal to sell WASPS tickets that they also have...

    £61m of debt wiped out in latest CCFC accounts

    Just listened to this and found it thoroughly depressing. The University Lecturer in Football finance basically said we are bust , spending 140% of income on wages, our wage bill is not that high for league One and he cannot see what SISU's business plan is other than to get lucky. Maybe Tim...

    For Me the real story is how Worcester get first call on our Talent and the RFU are looking at no relegation or promotion unless you meet certain criteria , that is likely to be min stadium size and winning the championship X years on the trot so that you may get more than the single point that...

    Council Accused Of 'Absurd' Ricoh Secrecy

    I don't see what there is new in this at all. This refers to events in 2013 and the initial ACL loan, which has been through the Judicial review and is subject to another appeal so I can understand the no comment stance at this point and it is Peter Ward making the statement using the word...

    SCG Meeting

    I would ask what are our targets regarding the 5 point plan especially on points 1 to 3 and what are they at the end of this season and next season at the very least. what are the measurements to ensure we are on track. I do not mean that we are planning appointed a new manager as a response ...

    Mowbray, is he the right man ?

    I must admit that he was not a name I would have picked out as first choice and that was mostly due to my own impressions rather than based upon any factual finding , which seem to indicate that we may well have a manager that wants to instil an entertaining brand of football. He has got teams...

    Is there any kind of protest for the MK match ?

    Over the 41 Years he has been a ticket holder he has stuck with them and witnessed our one success and many many failures and disappointments so to portray him as some fickle supporter is rather pathetic and does not recognise his support over many years. All of us on here have at one time put...

    Warburton is a manager on the way up. Too many on the list have peaked and are going the other way
