Good(e) point - hadn't thought about that link.Possibly would have done if our recruitment team hadn't have left for Blackpool with their database of players....
I mean the CEO is not exactly dynamic but surely any database collated whilst employed by CCFC is the intellectual property of CCFC (not that it gives any primary rights to sign any players on it). If not, what the fucking hell is going on?Possibly would have done if our recruitment team hadn't left for Blackpool with their database of players....
I'm sure it is... my post was slightly tongue in cheek!....I mean the CEO is not exactly dynamic but surely any database collated whilst employed by CCFC is the intellectual property of CCFC (not that it gives any primary rights to sign any players on it). If not, what the fucking hell is going on?

Signing must be imminent thenGone quiet hasn’t it. Don’t seem to be linked to anyone. Even Paterson’s gone cold…
Sounds like he needs to team up with Kenny Jackett.Even Paterson’s gone cold…
But in all cases bar Maddison they were right to do those deals. I like many fans was frustrated with almost all of those sales but as I say history suggests they leveraged their position to get very good fees for almost all of themNot sure that's relevant to the point I'm making which is not about the fee received as such but the inability of CCFC to turn down a deal altogether
OBSESSED.If King retains Boddy as CEO I think that will be a real reflection of his ambition or lack of

I've now got images in my head of Paterson doing a Peter OdemwingieWhy? Has he been camping outside the CBS all this time?

I know we were linked in the past...
You can argue that none of the ex-Chelsea signings have been all that effective. Dabo has been the best one by miles, if that tells you anything. It’s a limited strategy that can only ever get you so far.If we bang the ex Chelsea drum for every signing, it doesn't look great for our scouting efforts.
This place will go ape shit if we don't have anyone in by Saturday

We never replaced MaatsenI was thinking this yesterday, its definitely been hit and miss.
I'd say Maatsen and Clarke-Salter were successes last year though
No doubt Maatsen has gone on to do well this season but I don't really get this view. Bidwell has been a pretty steady Eddie in the wingback role. I think aside from Maatsen's two goals he scored playing in the attacking midfielder role, Bidwell and Maatsen's output has been nearly identical (1 goal, 1 assist I think).We never replaced Maatsen
Bidwell has got at least two assists (Godden at Millwall and Allen Saturday) think there might be another. The bigger point is that we give very little away down the left hand side as Bidwell is very solid defensively (Panzo less so but not to be so with Bidwell).No doubt Maatsen has gone on to do well this season but I don't really get this view.

I think Maatsen has been better for Burnley this year than he was for us…as you’d expect.No doubt Maatsen has gone on to do well this season but I don't really get this view.

I think Bidwell is an upgrade on Maatsen at this time, he was either hit or cold when he was here and got caught inside too often with the ball over his head. Bidwell is a steady player never a 9/10 but rarely a 5/10. I would have Bidwell as captain as well.
Voodoo?Bidwell has been a very good signing, excellent at the dark arts as well.
Do think missed a trick with charlie goode!..would have been good fit!..wonder if he was on radar when badlam was with us?..
I believe Chris Badlan underwent a Severance-style procedure on leaving Ryton.I mean the CEO is not exactly dynamic but surely any database collated whilst employed by CCFC is the intellectual property of CCFC (not that it gives any primary rights to sign any players on it).
