    Less than a year to build??

    It's all very well saying the build could be done in a year. But when will that year begin? They haven't bought any land yet, so let's assume (benevolently) that they will have done so by the start of next season. They then have to produce plans and go through the planning process. There...

    CCFC Accounts - Your questions answered

    This is where they are making a huge, and in my view, incorrect assumption: " But we will have to continue to take the short-term hit on revenues because, ultimately, building our own stadium moving forward is the only way the club can survive in the long-term. The club needs to be in a...

    Late Kick Off on BBC.

    Couldn't be worse than the ginger bird with the huge hooter that was on last night. She was asking McClaren about cups of tea and other drivel. Stevie Wonder would have given her the swerve! :facepalm:

    Late Kick Off on BBC.

    Interesting point, although I doubt they film other regional versions in a store cupboard. I did notice that Northampton were not covered on the Midlands edition, so perhaps City should be on whatever region they are in too, given where we play. It was dire TV. Up against Graham Norton, I...

    Late Kick Off on BBC.

    Just watched this. Has there ever been a worse football programme on TV - ever? In fact it could be the worst programme of any sort. It looked like it was set in someone's garage. The sound quality was all over the place. The whole thing looked like it was being done by first year...

    Breaking news: Stadium size increased

    I hope the topless waitresses will have more up front than the team at the moment!

    Breaking news: Stadium size increased

    It seems they have filled the committee with a fair sprinkling of sycophants, fantasists and usual suspects. No wonder they were demanding bigger capacity. In reality 12000 will be absolutely plenty in the very unlikely event of it ever seeing the light of day. If it were to open in 2017 as...

    Aidy Boothyroyd England u20 manager??

    Bloody hell, it's not a wind-up! They must have been impressed by his CV. Miserable failure at CCFC. Sacked by the bottom club in Division 4. Scintillating football played everywhere he's been. I utterly despair for the national game.

    And now for something completely different

    We were relegated from the Premier League with a team that should have been comfortably mid-table. But in that season Strachan never got the best out of them, whether it was poor team selection, poor tactics, stubbornly refusing to change anything, or trying to show the fans he knew what he was...

    Ryan Haynes Goal

    The pitches at Sowe Common are not quite as bad as I remember them.

    Tonights Results (For Those That Still Care)

    Adding 10 points gives our 'true' position. Our true current form is a different thing altogether. We are in very poor form at present.

    Tranmere Game Thread

    I'm not very optimistic. The momentum we had seems to have disappeared and everything is very flat. A draw would be a decent effort today given the squad we have available. But I fear it will be beyond us.

    Level of disconnect

    Before this season I had attended home games for 50 years, becoming a supporter in the fantastic JH era in 1963. I'd had a season ticket for 46 years, and had a spell of about 15 years in the 70s/80s when I went to every away game too. For the last 25 it has been home games only really. So it...

    Ricoh pitch

    We don't seem to be playing at Sixfields much either!:whistle: With today's postponement, plus another very possible on Tuesday, we are going to be playing on a muckheap for the rest of the season. Northampton also have some games to rearrange and will get priority, so we could be playing on...

    Sixfields will be a bit of a culture shock after the Emirates. Hope the lad's got a good solid pair of wellies! :thinking about:

    Striker and wide player to join on loan this morning

    Will they sign in time to see tomorrow's match called off. I wonder.

    Villa anyone?

    When I started supporting City in the early 60s in Div 3, there were always people that went to the Div 1 games at Aston Villa, West Bromwich and even Birmingham City when City were away. There were always Red House coaches from Pool Meadow to their games for 4/6d. I was deemed too young for...

    weekend game

    Yep, he's right. Most fans already have. :wave:

    weekend game

    It is outrageous incompetence that they can ignore a perfect pitch being available in their home city while games are being postponed on that muck-heap 35 miles away. But it sort of sums the club up now. Sod the fans, sod the team, sod everybody, just as long as Joy and her scuzzy gang don't...
