    Monday Summary & Thanks

    Forget trying to be realistic, now is the time to be optimistic. We have the whole summer in front of us dreaming of back to back promotions, I think it can happen. Sod realism and worst case scenarios at the moment, lets think about what could happen and just enjoy it. Our budget is healthy...

    Automatic Promotion Or Play Offs ?

    Auto promotion has to be the better way I suppose, but in hindsight I'm so glad we did it through the playoffs. They have been such a tremendous experience, the semi despair of the first leg and the feeling that the rain, and waterlogged pitch might had ruined our chances, add to that all the...

    I posted in the Civic Reception post that they would complain, didn't think they actually would!

    Summer Recruitment

    I can't believe some people still think like this, I like MR and think he has done a great job but his tactics and team selection cost us from winning this league IMO. Something changed after the Lincoln game, and it seems he decided to go for it, resulting in a total of 14 goals in the last 5...

    Summer Recruitment

    Our image will have improved a lot to prospective signings, which I think has been a bit of a problem. Reading Doyle's comments recently I was a bit surprised that McNulty initially preferred Mansfield. A few others have apparently been put off, probably mainly by off-field issues, but seeing us...

    We will have to find a way of cheating, to really wind them up.

    Is this the start of something?

    We will see Sisu's real intentions now, at the very least next year's budget should include the money generated from the playoffs on top of what the budget would have been, plus any money generated from player sales, whether current or previous. If we get one or two good signings early on...

    A note of caution

    I don't think we will necessarily lose any of the players we want to keep, the team seems settled and they get on well together. Sisu have held onto some of our best players in recent windows despite interest. MR has said consistently he thinks we are the best team in L2, and some of the more...

    CCFC v Wolves Division 2 champions 1967

    1967 was the first season I started going, I was recovering from illness so couldn't go to that game. But I remember being at home when I heard the score, and in jubilation I swung my foot as hard as I could as if to kick a ball. My shoe flew off and smashed a hole in the ceiling. It took some...

    Nolan

    Cowley was the same following the Exeter v Lincoln game, complaining about the treatment Rheid received (LOL) among other things. I think the days of magnanimous sportsmanship are over.

    The right Formula

    For most of the season it has seemed to me that MR has not been sure of his best team, or sometimes, the right tactics to play. But in the last 10 games we have scored 22 goals, okay we have conceded 16 but that includes the Yeovil & Lincoln debacles which are now looking more and more like an...

    Match Thread Notts County v Coventry Friday 18th May

    Surely if the linesman deems a player offside at the point the ball is played forwards and raises his flag, he's offside irrespective if someone else gets a touch and subsequently plays it to him, now in an onside position
