Should be an interesting night. New manager to be announced the next day?

ACL is a stadium management company. It hAs no business affinity with a football club, so merger doesn't make sense. And the last thing the Council would want is a half share of a failed football club.

You get the worst of the deal

Meanwhile ACL goes to the wall and there's no one left to run the arena after the three years?

John Mutton goes regularly, as do other Cllrs. George Duggins, Dave Chater, Kevin Maton, Lindsley Harvard. And not one of them sits in anything other than a regular seat.

Somebody do the stats, please. I reckon his strike rate is better than McG's

Liked the phone caller on CWR. We've got to sack the manager But Lee Carsley's the caretaker. Robins has gone. Dan, Dan, he says we've missed Robins going.

Players win matches. Formations help if they suit the players. But players win matches. Today's loss had nothing to do with formations, but from too many players regressing to their Shaw/Thorne days. No movement, no stretching the opposition, too many balls lumped up to Clarke, and far too many...

No, if everyone gets the minimum, we simply need one point more than the team in sixth place. Or even a better goal difference. And that holds true however many points the teams above us end up with. All of which proves that this statistics malarkey is bollox.

They've already offered the half of the catering profit that ACL currently get. That, along with other concessions, according to ACL, reduces the 400,000 rent to £150,000.

I'd make a bet on who scores most between now and the end of the season: McGoldrick or Clarke. Hint: his first name isn't David

Maybe you can show me the receipt for parking that says "paid to ACL". When the club offer me a parking season ticket to go with my one for the games, who gets the money? You're the third party they sell the parking to, along with all the other match day parkers.

CCFC get match day money from all the hospitality, parking (which they buy from ACL and the sell at a profit) and, I believe, pitch-side ads and other sponsorship. The only thing they don't get is ACL's share of the concourse catering, which they've been offered as part of the deal. If they...

Who do you think actually built the stadium for CCFC? And I don't mean physically put the brick on top of each other.

Robins was working for the FA for most of that year, leading their elite coaching programme. Not exactly out of work. Maybe he wasn't interested in going back to management for that year? Had that occurred?

If you think the owner or her minions read this or any other CCFC message board, you're delusional. They don't care about what the fans think. Everything they do is about maximising the returns (ie minimising losses) on their investment. They have no interest in fans other than counting how many...

I heard the rumour about Seppala overruling the board before Christmas, so it's not likely Robins only heard about it now. More likely when he talked to Seppala last week about "plans for the future" he was told the size of his transfer budget this summer, and didn't like it. The argument that...

Not if he had a"release clause" in his contract, which he is supposed to have, and Huddersfield have met the comp. fee. He said himself he was discussing future plans with Seppala last week. My guess is he was told there was no money for players, whether we got promoted or not, and H'field...

9 of those 22 were sub appearances, while Clarke started from the bench once. If he's having a barren patch then yes you DO drop your top scorer. If you're not winning, you try something a bit different. Just my opinion mind. Robins will do whatever he does because he's the manager & has more...

Clarke has more goals than Elliott because he's played more. Clarke usually starts, and Elliott has come off the bench. However, the fact that he "works his socks off" (or runs about a lot) does not necessarily make Hume a better player. Andy Morrell "worked his socks off" but he was a crap...
