    new season prediction

    Difficult to tell, over the years I haven't paid much attention to L2 so don't know much about it. The impression I get it is more about thumping the ball than playing the ball around and that it is based on size and physicality. Do we have a squad to match or counter that? I don't buy in to...

    Court hearing

    As I understand it application for Judicial Review has to be brought in a timely prompt manner, common timescale is 3 months after a decision made. I think, though not certain, that you usually have to challenge on what you knew at the time of challenge not add to or amend to something else Not...

    City to receive around £20,000 from EFL futures programme?

    So there is an incentive to play young players Doesn't seem to match up with cup competitions Luton get encouraged to play them in the League but fined for doing so in the cup. EFL: No 'mixed message' on youth players I know there are competition rules etc but surely something like the EFL...

    ST sales

    Would hope CCFC netted far more than £400k CHECKATRADE TROPHY ALL SET FOR KICK OFF were there big losses in the group stages? Didn't the CCFC fans pay the ticketmaster charges? prize money 240k plus share of gate money, hospitality, merchandise etc should be well over 400k for CCFC I would think

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    As for crystallising the losses - which losses? The original investment, £28m, made by the 5 private equity funds would have to be valued each year for the annual investment report. So its down grading has to have been known for years, Its just a question of when the loss is physically taken...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Seems to me CT claims that dialogue continues are a bit tenuous. The "dialogue" seems to be very one sided, with Seppala responding with a blunt not interested. Sending Seppala three bids rejected as unwelcome or insufficient and emails asking to meet that are refused is not really constructive...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    The presenter said that Hoffman had pulled out of being on the show as he was in process of corresponding with Seppala about trying to arrange a meeting and didn't want to say any more. Moz was asked what he knew and said he didn't know any more than that. I took that to mean that Moz had no...

    Bye bye Saturday

    Just to be clear as to what they are applying for. Is it - to have primacy on the choice of dates/day? (which means they could still stick with Sundays but if a fixture demands it move to a Saturday and CCFC have to make way) or - to play all their games on a Saturday? or both?

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    Blind faith got us into this mess in the first place. Any questions wont affect SISU at all. A good leader interacts with the rest of the group and is not scared of questions, uses it to make the group stronger That is not to say GH is not best for CCFC only that I want to know what we are...
