    Fight at Game

    pusbccfc, with respect - the people in the middle sections of the Tesco are very loyal fans in the main. They've probably been to more City matches than you've had hot dinners. The number of faces I see that have been coming as long as I have are many, a bit older and greyer but fantasic...

    KEOGH FOR ENGLAND SQUAD - Why Not ???

    Regardless of his nationality, Keogh is a class player. He'd be better at right back at the minute. No disrespect to Cyrus, who is an emerging talent. Keogh is composed, brave, wholehearted, a threat going forward. Etc, etc. Definitely middle order Premier League quality. And this despite where...

    George Hudson

    City were on tv for the 2nd Round of the FA Cup in December 1963. Against Bristol Rovers. George played in that game. Whether that film survives I don't know. It was possibly filmed because of our cup run the previous season when we got to the Quarter finals v Man U. Pretty certain the BBC...

    Gianni Paladini

    Paladini used to live in Solihull, so has links to midlands. He was in court about five years ago when half a dozen blokes stormed into his office and pulled a gun on him. Allegedly. The case got dismissed I read. Also had a run in with then manager Ian Holloway. So it sounds lively. Not sure he...

    You guys (grasshoppers) have been watching reruns of David Carradine in Kung Fu? :)

    SISU to blame for 2nd half back 4 line up.....

    Hey, we're all miserable about our team but one or two positives. We scored TWO goals. We scored those goals playing a higher tempo, slightly more direct game. We have big guys in the team, set pieces should be a tactic that we make more of. For a short period we took the game to the Saints, it...

    CCFC's woes from a Saints Fan's perspective and a message of support

    Once Again, the Inevitable Football League Show Thread...

    Anthony Wordsworth, Colchester. 6 foot + goalscoring midfielder. Look him up. Surely we could get him in? Any sane board would surely look at him? Just dreaming I know.

    Clingan

    Bigi, must come back in, but hopefully will be given a more advanced role. He's the only one who seems to have the imagination and composure to try things & maybe open up defences. He's wasted playing deep I feel. Clutching at straws on know, banking on an 18 year kid to help us out. Deegan must...

    Clingan

    Clingan was basically our midfield today. For whatever reason Gary Deegan was hopeless today, unfit? Conor Thomas will be a terrific player in the not too distant future but has been overexposed in recent games, he's just not ready for a regular start and against a talented team like Southampton...

    "There was no hope left. No one even shouted at the players"

    Cableguy, thanks for putting this up. The Unfortunates has been a haven of really thoughtful comment on football for a while now. A refreshing change from the media giving us nothing but the Premier league. Agree with what they say. At the moment we do looked doomed. But two thirds of the season...

    Loan

    KG, yeah, you're probably right about Gosling, too young. But Gaskell's mention of Sylvain Marveaux could be a good bet. It has to be Pardew.

    Loan

    If Newcastle - Could be Xisco, 25 year old six foot striker they got from Deportivo? Not played much. Or Gosling maybe?

    Time for us to stop going to the Ricoh

    Thank God the posters on here only represent a tiny fraction of the supporters. It is like 'throw your toys out of the pram time,' on here. At a point where the club needs all the support it can get - so many on here turn their backs on them. Torchomatic is so right. 100% agree with him. Some...

    Reserves beat Lester 3-1 earlier!

    Nonleague, the idea of Christie further up the pitch isn't as daft as it sounds. He doesn't have a trick when taking on defenders but he's powerful and gets those crosses in. Might shore us up a little.

    The slating of Andy Thorn

    Football is an emotional game. Even at parks level it can get heated. AT was speaking minutes after the game, he's wound up, probably exhausted with nervous tension. He shouldn't be pilloried for comments there. They are bound by league rules I understand to do these post match talks. But I'll...

    The slating of Andy Thorn

    Common sense as always Oldskyblue. AT's comments on Gary Deegan throw fresh light on the situation he was facing on Saturday. Though you have to ask the question - if he didn't want to play him why have him on the bench. Pointless. Though he doesn't have that many to choose from does he. Perhaps...

    "Close to having the funds to buy part of Ricoh Arena" (More SISU bullshit)

    No station, despite the much vaunted 'Green plan' - no entertainment complex, an already shabby looking ground, poor toilet facilities, poor transport links generally, wasted space around the ground (approach from car park C from underpass could be set up as artificial turf training pitches for...

    If We Get Relagated Would You Renew Your Season Ticket?

    What Tommy Atkins, Torchomatic & CCFC Dan said goes for me too. Unconditional support. 51 years - not going to change now.If I can't play for them I'll support them
