I must admit I don't normally favour conspiracy theories, and only have a passing knowledge of how hedge funds work; but the devil in me can't help but put this one out there. The nature of hedge fund investments is to have an alternative outcome, or Plan B for any given investment. So...

Given the current gridlock situation on contract discussions, couldn't SISU lease the stadium from ACL for a duration that aligned itself with their commitment to fund the club? Therefore, SISU get the income they incessantly elude to for a predetermined period, the council gets income but...

A per link, Andy Williams of Yeovil Town - notwithstanding embargo, of course!! http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17900041 Quite a big lad at 6' 2", still only 25 and out of contract. Scored 22 in 71 with Yeovil. With his physique, he looks a decent foil for Cody

Moderators: please don't delete their fare. It's what football rivalry is all about. If they want to dish some out, we have to take it on the chin; painful though it might be. And of course, remember it so that we can return the compliment when ill fortune is again visited upon their pitiful...

Stephen Dobbie, of Swansea is reported to be close to joining Bristol City... Precis from Wiki: Just making 8 appearance in the Premier League, Dobbie find himself in a pecking order behind striker Danny Graham, Leroy Lita, Luke Moore and new signing Rory Donnelly. Following his first team...

Anyone else noticed this? http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/17228520

Let's try and keep this away from a Thorn bashing debate, shall we; but I was just wondering what the 'true' strength of our squad is?!? The official CCFC site lists 32 current First Team squad players. One of these is Sky Blue Sam (although he might be worth a shout on current form - either...

On the last-8 game form guide (which includes of course our capitulations against Ipswich and Blackpool, I hasten to add) we are showing better form than Forest, Doncaster and Pompey. Doncaster's March is horrible: Brighton, Forest, West Ham, Reading, Derby, Millwall, Southampton and...

.... and will all else stacked against the team; any plaudits for Thorn and the way he set about this evening?

One of the scary realisations is that I truly don’t believe SISU are bothered about the idea of relegation to League One. Not now. Of course, there was a time when they’d have considered it abhorrent, but I think they are well past that stage now. Since they’ve been involved with the club, the...

If you want to pass comment about losing games late on, please take time to read this link. I've posted it before, and hopefully this time folk might read it. It shows the lengths clubs like Northampton Town are going to with regards conditioning of players. We lost our fitness coach to...

Both Doncaster and Forest have lost significant players in recent days, and they'd be exceptionally lucky to find decent replacements Portsmouth's position - whilst I have every sympathy for their fans - appears a slo-mo car crash before our very eyes, and a deduction, or worse an...

There's been some discussion of late relating to our wages and those of our peers. Getting exact information is quite hard - unless you want to but the full set of accounts for every club - which I don't. However, some of it is available via the wonder of the internet. I have looked at a few...

..... the next loanee won't be dismissed before he's kicked a ball, eh? And do you know what else; for the first time in a long time, there was a player in a Coventry City shirt who got you on the edge of your seat. Early days, and expectation shouldn't be heaped, but I'm looking forward to...

To all those to advocate changing Thorn at the helm; how would the club - even if it wanted to - do so? We can't even afford a fitness coach or full-time scout, and Thorn's only in the position because he's cheap. So, where does the money come from for this new person - even someone from lower...

Looking at significant names from our peers within the bottom 6; surely we are where we are due to having less experience and quality in key areas? Even before the signifcant players left close and early season we struggled, but now I don't think Pep Gaurdiola could do much about our plight...

.... evidently a thick bloke. Quod erat demonstrandum

I know I've seen this issue discussed within other treads which then return to their original topic; but does anyone have a definitive break-down of what this much cited £30m comprises? Does it include transfer fees, if so is that value 'contraed' by incoming funds - which to the best of my...
