    Magnus Hedman

    The football under Reid was awful as were his signigs. He jettisoned Gudjonson who had been great for us under Black, sent McSheffrey out on loan to Luton with his replacement being a Man Utd youth player (can't remember his name) who did nothing for us or in his later career. When he left, we...

    EFL to end season this week - City likely to be promoted

    We had 55K at Wembley for the Charity Shield.

    Magnus Hedman

    I never rated him very highly. Oggy was never afraid to put his head in when boots were flying. Can't say the same for Magnus.

    Assuming we are promoted - your thoughts

    Hope so! Need to fall over the brink.

    National league cancelled

    I wouldn’t want to say as any info I put on here at odd times I wouldn’t want to be traceable back to him. It’s a lower league club.

    EFL Meeting 1pm today

    I saw all three of those games. Stoke were shocking all season and in that game we were as bad as them. The one think that you could say for both teams was that they gave their best, in other words Stoke didn’t simply roll over. Ian Painter was the guy who missed the pen and later signed for us...

    National league cancelled

    I have a relative who works for an EFL club. He has been told that players will report back for May 16. Staff to be in the week before. This seems to tie in with rumours on here. Also seems a logical time as the current lock down measures seem certain to be eased in a couple of weeks in line...

    EFL Meeting 1pm today

    Surely a dead rubber fixture is where both teams have nothing to play for? In those fixtures, Stoke Luton and Everton, each match meant a great deal to us. In addition, Stoke and Luton players certainly weren’t taking it easy and made life as difficult for us as they could.

    Partick Thistle

    I just can't see how they can justify such an arbitrary decision. It seems totally unfair. If the leagues have to end then surely a ppg system is much fairer. In these circumstances, why have relegation at all? Just promote clubs at the top of their leagues and have more relegation places next...

    RIP Norman Hunter

    There was no freedom of contract in those days. I would think that the likes of Moore would have been snapped up by 'bigger clubs' at the end of one of his West Ham contracts. It now seems such an outdated system but the fact that clubs retained the player's registration at the end of his...

    Fly on the wall football films/documentaries

    There is a good documentary on Bill Shankly on BBCIplayer.

    EFL Statement

    If the season was called null and void, I assume all bets would be off and all stakes returned (would cost the bookies a bit). Would they pay out if the leagues were decided on say a PPG basis?

    EFL Statement

    There was a professor from Warwick University on 5 Live the other day talking about the various scenarios that may happen when the lockdown is realeased. The method he favoured was that young people (those under 35?) could be the first group realeased. His rationale for this was that...

    Could be 18 months before fans allowed back in stadiums

    He did say filled to capacity. Not quite the same as no crowd at all.

    First ever CCFC memories ?

    All ticket I think.

    Quest EFL goal of the season.

    Biamou’s at Peterborough for me. But the Walsh goal is also a great goal.

    First ever CCFC memories ?

    I was about to post the same thing about Ian Wallace. Wasn't it touch and go as to whether he would have full vision again? I don't think he had made his debut at the point he had the accident. Re- the Chelsea player, Peter Houseman rings a bell?.
