    So...Who will go next?

    Last season we had 18 poor players and this season we have 36 poor players - what we need is 18 good players and then we can challenge

    So...Who will go next?

    Just to clarify the position on Brown - at the recent SCG meeting we asked Fisher about Brown and he stated that there is no clause in the contract that says we have to play him if fit and that we can send him back, we do not have to keep him until the end of the season - both decisions are down...

    Bell - Where is he?

    Its funny how our players get better the longer they are out of the first team - seem to remember half way through last season when we were all clamouring for the return of Clingan, that was going to turn our season around and we know how that ended. Bell was crap, is crap and will be crap and...

    robins open letter to the fans

    Words are cheap - I seem to remember an open letter from Onye Igwe that was full of platitudes and promises - there is no criticising the sentiment and maybe he did write it but I will be happier with actions, starting with dropping Brown and seeing a team playing decent winning football.

    How big a club are we?

    How big a club are we? We are currently in the bottom half of the Third Division with a set of owners who don't give a damn about getting us promoted so I would say we aren't very big at all. How big could we potentially be? Now that's a totally different question and potentially we should have...

    Robins: Be more like McGoldrick

    Playing alongside Rees Brown is enough to shatter anyones confidence and give them recurring nightmares - Fergie really must hate us

    current cov player speaks

    Grendel - his age is irrelevant, he didnt actually turn full time pro until Jan 2009. He made 25 appearances for Norwich, mainly as a sub including one appearance as emergency keeper, and scored 4 goals. His full season at Gillingham netted 25 goals in 41 appearances and since joining us hes ben...

    You are Robins: who will his starting XI be versus Oldham

    As long as the name Brown is not on the team sheet I will be happy with whatever team he picks

    Loans...

    When asked at fans forum Waggott clearly stated that whatever happens McGoldrick was only here until Jan. There was no way we would be buying him and Forest only sent him here to be in the shop window and he will be sold as his contract is up in the summer and they want a return. Still no...

    Pace Pace Pace

    Its not just the pace of the individual thats important - its the speed of thought, the speed of movement off the ball, the speed when not on the ball to find space for a pass - out and out individual pace is all well and good but if the ball is being passed backward at glacial pace then hoofed...

    CCFC Shop in Town Closes

    I like the idea someone suggested that all the Cov sports teams: football, rugby, ice hockey, speedway etc get together and share a shop where you can buy merchandise but more importantly tickets. Maybe even some cross promotions on tickets - after all many football fans will also go to speedway...

    Walk from coaches to ground

    Covs ticket office probably still had info referring to Highbury, with Charabang routes, British Rail train timetables and dog eared copy of a London A to Z showing the proposed site for the Millenium Dome, as thats about the last time we played Arsenal. Look on bright side - it will be many...

    Keys

    Hoffman will be trying to put a deal together until he draws his last breath as he has genuine passion for the club and maybe he might put something together before that happens but if he cannot muzzle his yappy poodle then it shows a degree of unprofessionalism that I would not associate with...

    your supporters

    Talking to some Gooners they said that many there last night were not regulars as home games are sold out and season ticket only and this was a chance for those who don't or cannot get to games normally to come so it wasn't their usual support. Even so they were very quiet, maybe cos half of...

    Keys

    Keys is like a jilted brides best friend who never got to be a bridesmaid - bitter and ready to stick the knife in at any opportunity. He is a very minor player in the whole pantomime that is the ownership of CCFC and all associated companies and is best ignored as he has no more information...

    Put him out of his misery.........

    In the past I have always tried to see some redeeming feature in a player or what it is that the manager sees that us mere fans cannot - even Leon Barnett I could see a glimmer of a good player but in Brown I fail to see anything that makes me think he will ever be a decent central defender. He...

    Last Night's Performance....

    If we are judging teams on worth then because ours has Brown and Sheff in it the figure is a large negative number
