    In a way losing could be a good thing

    I would give Sheff a chance up front with McGoldrick but it would have to be his last chance. I was one of the fans who welcomed him back with open arms thinking he would return to his pre brum form but he has been so disappointing i have lost confidence in his ability to do anything. He has no...

    Kilbane needs to be stripped of the captaincy

    Although i didnt think he would set the league alight, i at least hoped he would bring in an experienced head to help the younger players and put in a shift but he has been disappointing to say the least.

    Diabolical city .. Ccfc is dead: Thats me finished

    Well i can agree on lack of atmosphere (don't drink, live in Oxfordshire so getting to either stadium was/is a little bit of a mission and dont know any stadium like it, some stadiums are similar but all unique) but i do see your point. Think over time the ricoh will feel a bit more like home...

    In a way losing could be a good thing

    As always they showed glimpses of what they can all do but they were few and far between and for the most part they looked tired, dejected and just not good enought to win. A loss was probably harsh as Carlisle werent that much better but it just seems every other team out there can scrape a win...

    Diabolical city .. Ccfc is dead: Thats me finished

    We were always going to move it just seems we picked the absolute worse time to do it and it has cost us big time. I have no problem with the ricoh and also think it is a great stadium as well as football ground (if we can get 30k in there) but think a lot of people have associated it with our...

    Diabolical city .. Ccfc is dead: Thats me finished

    Didn't they use to say football was played by gentleman and watched by thugs (not sure if that is the right word but i'm sure something along those lines and whatever it was it was harsh but it made it's point) whilst rugby was played by thugs and watched by gentleman? I only hope the good old...

    But why is their off day always when they ref the Sky Blues and why do they also support the opposition? ;)

    Diabolical city .. Ccfc is dead: Thats me finished

    It really seems to be the money that has killed the game off. I was at a stage a few years back when i almost gave up on football. I wasnt around during the glory days of the 60's, 70's and some of the 80's but followed Cov late 80's and 90s and then it seemed it wasnt about the football, more...

    The positive in all this is

    It's not that the players are crap but atm they are playing crap and probably because confidence is low but it also means they dont have great mental toughness otherwise it wouldn't affect them as much as it does. It does seem if we can get a scrappy, ugly win then things will pick up but it...

    I think it is the expectation and his '1 in 10' amazing games that mean when he doesnt do that well he gets abuse. Today i thought he was OK, did track back at times with some good tackles in the box but also got beaten many times (hence the yellow card which i thought was for persistant fouls)...

    It isnt McGoldrick's fault he has no confidence in the players around him so feels he has to do all the work and take players on himself. He is by far our best player at the moment (league 1 version of marlon king without the baggage?) and if the other players gave the same effort he does then i...

    Pressure free game

    I wouldnt say if we won the game we would go to win the league but surely the league cup would be in the bag with 2 big scalps already taken and also Arsenal:p

    Problem is who do you put in, Edge, Malaga, Brown and Wood all seem to enjoy making mistakes that lead to goals. That leaves Cameron and Willis if i'm not mistaken who are both inexperienced but still i know what you are saying and would put in Cameron and Willis for the next game (if Cameron is...

    Worst start to a season for 93 years

    It was the 5 fish feeding the 5000 where i first sensed maybe something wasnt right. i mean i need at least 1 for myself so if there are 4 others like me then that's 4996 who have to starve or fight over the bread ;) Saying that though i would say the jesus one (i like that) would be the more...

    The positive in all this is

    Fair point, the solid teams we have played against were exactly that a solid team however you can also see why saints, sheff wed, leeds, forest all came back up relatively quickly. If you have all the above attributes and add a little quality then you can walk this league, the problem is we only...

    Worst start to a season for 93 years

    I'm a little ashamed for thinking the same about Keogh and Crainie. Always thought they were good but never saw why so many thought they were amazing....until now. Just hope Cameron and Willis can form something of a beautiful partnership in the middle if given a chance (they really can't be any...

    I didnt realise the point of a forum was to dismiss everything other than facts:facepalm: Maybe you were the ref????;)

    The positive in all this is

    Is it just me or if our all our players gave a crap and played well every game (rather than 1 or 2 if that) we really could go on an amazing run and still challenge. I mean has any team we played against actually been that good? I'm not trying to be a snob, just based on the 4 home games i've...
