    Mcsheffreys Sky Blue career must be over............

    Surely won't get a new contract, IMO lacks desire, has sufficient skill to compensate for lack of pace but tonight he was a passenger, very poor.

    Sheffers

    Can anybody justify that performance. that miss in the second half, far too casual. Not sure that fleck or Callum Wilson are the answer but wilson scored a goal that involved pace a commodity so lacking in our squad

    Elvis Project No 1 Barton & fleck

    Liam I don't know how old you are but we used to have players such as Nuddy or Huckerby where the debate was whether they were better out wide or up front through the middle ie they seemed to be effective in both positions. The problem with Fleck and Barton is they are restricted as to where...

    Elvis Project No 1 Barton & fleck

    Funniest thing I ever read! They are better than this level, but cannot cut it at this level! In other words - they are NOT good enough! Classic delusion I wrote that they are more "SKILFUL" not better ie like Le Tissierwho was seen as one of the most skilful footballers in England but...

    Elvis Project No 1 Barton & fleck

    "Luxury players are, in short, and very generally, are players who aren't all blood and thunder (usually without any technicality) and British fans appreciate that over technicality" - not many were applauding Barton after Stevenage scored their winner at the ricoh as he failed to track his...

    Elvis Project No 1 Barton & fleck

    I have recognised their skill in the above post but Robins din't seem to play them much. fleck came on against Yeovil in a game we were losing and seemed so static, he has good touch and vision but where do you play him too slow to be out wide, easily brushed off the ball in the middle...

    Elvis Project No 1 Barton & fleck

    Elvis likes to promote younger players, Barton & Fleck have youth on their side and higher levels of skill than the average Div 1 player but don't seem to be able to cut it at this level. Does he play these in preference to Sheffers/ baker / Bell Does he slowly integrate them Are they...

    Ray Ranson December 2009

    Ransom & co understood the financial position of operating losses when they took over which were partially explained by the high rent but why they never negotiated these down is strange but were they confident of getting us to the Premiership that they didn't give this the attention it...

    Radical overhaul...

    We as Cov fans need to be more honest about our players, some are just not good enough and decisions need to be made for next season. Nathan - seems to have gone backwards too important a position to be so weak Edge - if he can't dispalce Nathan then clearly not good enough for this leage...

    Team for Sat

    Fleck like so many of our players , lacks pace, I think Thorne wanted to ensure he would be able to outsprint some of the players to the buffet at the connection at lunchtime. Fleck imo needs to improve his pace and stamina or he will not be able to contribute at this level

    How Hedge Funds work !!!

    The only part of ccfc that fitted the usual private equity target was the fact that it was financially distressed. It had no assets and couldn't be split up and sold off. Why they never acted like a hedge fund at the beginning was because ransom sold them a dream which initially required...

    How Hedge Funds work !!!

    Worked for a company that was taken over by a private equity company. Were on record as saying their intention was to make us the no.1 in our industry in Europe whilst they were in secret negotiations to sell us to a rival. They never turned us around, they stripped out overhead cost and made...

    Who do you believe

    Grendel you seem to be of the opinion that SISU's will always have CCFC's best interest at heart, most of the time they will as what is good for the club should also suit their interest, but their key interest is getting their money back for their investors after their shambolic management of...
