Smokescreen? That implies it was a conspiracy, somehow they'd hoodwinked all of those teams to let us win. Unbelievable.
Not what I meant, but you know that don't you.:facepalm:Smokescreen? That implies it was a conspiracy, somehow they'd hoodwinked all of those teams to let us win. Unbelievable.
For people to say we didn't moan about SISU when we were doing well is very
simplistic and very naive.
Yes it is.It isn't though is it?
As people now saying everything is short term and it wouldn't bring success, how many people moaned about loans when we were hammering teams? how many moaned about wage budget when we were hammering teams then signed Joe Cole?
In the early part of the season, do you think fans thought SISUwere
doing a good job?
Nick do you think SISU are running this club well?If the concensus is that the bad results are now down to them, then the good results must have also surely?
Or are good results down to Mowbray, and bad results down to SISU? The same as good signings are Mowbray, and the bad ones he was forced into them by SISU?
Nick do you think SISU are running this club well?
The club isnt ran well at all, it has no plan and a run of results may have blinded a few but most know that winning games being top of the league will only be sustainable if the owners want progress. These owners don't that, they want stability in L1 with a higher than average L1 fanbase to survive until the court cases are resolved or JS decides its better her investors take what they can and get out.
Come summer they will be banging the drum about ambition, progress and all other things to spike ST sales they may even say promotion this year or maybe next!!! is the goal. This is bad owners trying to survive until they have had enough, i think its about time the fans show they have had enough and not get misdirected into falling for a run of results. I would also like to ask them if James Maddison money will be spent on a replacement or has that been a misbudget aswell.
Are you a politician by any chance.On the pitch this season we had a more than competitive squad. Not up there with Wigan, but certainly not 13th place bottom half standards.
If people are saying SISU to blame for the bad run, surely they must be for the good run?
I'd love them to put millions in, but then down the line we end up in the shite again like last time. So we are the same as most other League One teams aren't we?
I can't comment on investment, backing etc until I see next season's squad. Progress is being made at least with signing permanent players already rather than last minute.

It depends if Jodi Jones is seen as a replacement I guess.
We will be able to judge after pre season won't we?
I still think they are creaming off circa £2M a year in management fees or whatever..
How have you judged every other pre season under Sisu then, budgets got higher, squads got stronger, club has been very progressive on and off the field?. I bet none but always next year hey. Nik what are you waiting for, really, you and i both know they have not improved this club in any way shape or form, i admire your persistence and patience.
Are you a politician by any chance.
Im not slating SISU for the teams poor form this season, I'm slating SISU for
their poor form over the last 5,6 or7 years.
The early season form on the pitch was a very welcome surprise,unfortunately
with no real foundations in place we will start next season on a 'wing and a prayer '
again.
So why not post that when we were top of the league?
Because like everyone else I was enjoying being top of the league ffsSo why not post that when we were top of the league?
Won't matter next season, he won't be here.Cheers Tony. Who's Chris stokes again?
What surprises me is how some fans are on side with them,some even
seem to embrace them.
Won't matter next season, he won't be here.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and suggest that it's because he only joined in January of this year
Why won't he?Won't matter next season, he won't be here.
Cheeky fucker, make a 340 mile trip to watch my club.been on board 42 years.Well spotted, Tony. That would explain it then.
Ah, I remember late 2015. Great time to be a City fan.
Cheeky fucker, make a 340 mile trip to watch my club.been on board 42 years.
I didn't realise being on this site determined fan or not.
Glory hunting Cov fan LOL
Think we all forget theOK, stop getting hysterical. I forgot the smiley!

I'm advised they are not but its all smoke and mirrors to me.
I'll still stick with my gut feeling as I can't see any reason their investors allow them to have millions tied up in the club without some return (maybe future return).
No you're wrong.The old adage is that "the table never lies" we are exactly where the squad deserves to be over the season so 13th is as good as we are. Everything else is subjective. All clubs are capable of a string of results over a short period which is what we have achieved (probably an improvement on last year) but we did not have the quality to sustain a challenge over the whole season.
Regarding "we would end up in the shite again" makes me smile as we have not left the last ten years of shite to get beck into it, financially things could really not be any worse for CCFC as it stands.
No you're wrong.
ok -we've never been further away from owning our own ground
ok -we hardly have any contracted players
ok -our average gate has fallen by about 8.000
ok -we have become a below average league 1 club
But make no mistake this club sits on a sound financial footing.
Well done SISU
