    Wave of optimism

    I felt proud of what happened last night. Marches outside the ground and petitions have achieved nothing (apart from feeding Gilbert's ego). Last night wasn't about 3 points for me, it was about using the platform to allow people to sit up and take notice. I think fisher got off lightly on talk...

    Venus interview

    I feel sorry for him. I think he's been played and used by the top brass. Plenty of people were praising him last season for his ability to spot a player. Yes there were a few that bombed, but no one was slagging him off when we signed Armstrong, Murphy, Joe Cole - there was endless praise for...

    On the cheap

    Keep clutching! This stripping back has been going on for years to cut costs, not because anyone is waiting in the wings...

    On the cheap

    We do conferencing and events: stuff is starting to take place at BPA, business networking breakfasts to name a couple. IMO it doesn't matter if two of them are photographers, that is all part of a media and communications team. Photography and video is done by the listed communications team at...

    On the cheap

    You could look for yourself on the staff directory on non-league clubs own sites. I'm not saying there definitely are, but it wouldn't surprise me. Comparing the staffing size and costs at CCFC would be skewed by playing staff, coaches, academy etc. which would obviously be more than all...

    On the cheap

    I'm surprised more staff haven't quit, but if they want to work in football then jobs at other clubs come up few and far between. They are all city fans and have a loyalty to the club, but I bet if most of them were offered work at another club, they'd take it. Me mentioning communications stuff...

    On the cheap

    I don't post on here a lot, but after today I just couldn't help myself - I had to vent some frustrations somehow. I have sources within the club (I won't elaborate, so people can believe what I say or not), and there are some hardworking people that are really fighting a losing battle. It will...

    ADAM BRIERLEY.

    I have a number of sources, not going to disclose any or answer calls to prove anything. People can either take what I say or not, but I have no reason to lie. Not sure there is more information to give on this particular thing - it was just a personal choice from someone who it seems has had...

    ADAM BRIERLEY.

    He left because the future is bleak. It isn't necessarily because something is happening in the background, but there are too many challenges and politics involved fighting little battles with Wasps/ ACL. The consensus is that working at CCFC is extremely hard work - skeleton staff, being...

    Gilbert's Book

    So IF he is employed by the telegraph and he is writing a book in his own time about the club based on all the info he has accrued whilst employed there - is that not cashing in?

    Gilbert's Book

    Is he freelance? I don't know but appears to be employed by the Telegraph and job title seems to be chief reporter there, not CCFC correspondent.

    Gilbert's Book

    Simon Gilbert is the biggest self-promoting fool out there. The constant promotion of his book and articles on social media really frustrate me personally. People know his book is out soon and people know his articles appear on the CT website - he doesn't need to push it in people's faces all...

    Mr Moorcroft and other CSF people also sit on a group called the Coventry sport network which is supposed to oversee the development of sport in Coventry - including supporting talented athletes http://covsport.org.uk/about-us

    So if this is a forced takeover...

    CCC. All very incestuous I'm afraid and it seems none of these people are accountable despite their sickening collusion to ruin the club and mutual back slapping smugness.

    So if this is a forced takeover...

    CSF and wasps are already in bed together so CSF have a vested interest in their success. The city of rugby and CSF 'engage' project sees them deliver a number of projects on behalf of Wasps for Premier Rugby in the local community (not very well apparently either) - and getting paid handsomely...

    Fleck in top 15 player, votes by league 1 gaffers.

    I have posted on here before that people won't realise how good Fleck is until he's not here anymore. A good player doesn't necessarily need to dominate play all the time - there is a saying that goes 'you never notice a good centre half'. Still, seems a few keyboard pundits on here know more...
