    McLaren sack imminent, Armstrong recall imminent?

    Recalling a 19 year old with only 30 odd games experience of playing "mens" football and burdening him with saving their premiership skin would hardly be a clever move for either player or club. From what I have seen of Newcastle on telly this season their main problem is that they can't stop...

    Shrewsbury Match Thread

    I doubt very much that Ricketts will ever get dropped regardless of how he is performing, and from the limited game time that we have seen Rose, does he warrant selection ahead of Murphy? Despite of what most people on here think of him he is still second top goalscorer and has the potential (if...

    O'Driscoll sacked

    Sawyers been the best opposition player at the Ricoh for me this season, looked a class above anything else on the pitch (Armstrong excluded obvs).

    Cargill and Stephens to both play on Sunday perhaps?

    There is always the option of three at the back, we have several players who could fit in that configuration?

    Official January transfer window for CCFC

    Norwich have signed Patrick Bamford on loan from Chelsea 40 odd goals at a higher level than Maddison has played at, still only 22, can't see him getting in the team ahead of him?

    Official January transfer window for CCFC

    Surely no body can be surprised by this, isn't this par for the course with SISU, remember Juke, Wilson sold on when we needed them most? If it wasn't Maddison it would have been someone else, Fleck being most likely.

    Peter Ramage

    If you have an experienced, vocal player along side you, encouraging and giving you a call when necessary, it can help and lift your game. With these young boys in the team, players who have been around a bit can do just that, and help them out. Sometimes we have shown naivety in some games...

    Ryan Kent to (actually) be recalled

    He has always offered an option for the manager to use, hopefully TM has another one on the radar who may give us a bit more. You can never have too many options at your disposal, as other City managers have found out when our squads have resembled a barrel of shite.

    New goalie needed

    The lad isn't coming out to claim the ball because he is being impeded by the opposition strikers and we have had Phillips (a midget) and Haynes (a streak of p**s) to guard him from set plays...:thinking about: RCC looked at his best with Reda and Ricketts along with Martin and Stokes-all good...

    So, Reice Charles Cooke...

    Well I've watched it over and over and from the very first it's clear that the forward has hold of the goalies arm round the back of Haynes. Makes no odds anyway because Philiskirk has a free head to the ball, RCC adjusts back to the line after when he then tangles with Haynes and the number 9...

    Aaron Martin

    A certain Welsh ex City player who is hated throughout the land also donates huge amounts of money to childrens charities.

    Chris Eagles signs for Bury

    Mowbray would be better to keep his transfer/wage purse closed just for now. May have to dip in to get a CB to cover for Reda, I'd be on the phone to Everton to get Pennington back pronto. Having Eagles on the books could have backfired big time, he hasn't set the world on fire just lately has...

    Rochdale (Away) Match Thread

    Yep, I'm with shmmeee with this one, O'Brien played at rightback for Barnsley. Good tackler and will go forward naturally. Adds more experience to the back four, keep Phillips on the bench for when JOB goes off after 70 mins. Wouldn't play Lameiras ahead of Kent or Murphy but I would be giving...

    Chris Eagles?

    Heard on the CWR prematch chatter that Chris Eagles, according to some internet sites, is/has signed for us. Considering his wages at Bolton only 12 months ago were widely reported as being £30,000 per week, one would assume that he would only be on a small fraction of that figure should he...

    If they were clever.....

    If they were clever.... they would have the new shirts ready and available for Fathers Day. But then if they were they would have had a Club shop full of stock ready to sell at Christmas. Clueless.

    if mowbray gets the job one of the first things he should do is

    How many third division clubs can afford to have the luxury of a full time goalkeeping coach? I'd rather have his wages spent on a decent scout. I'm firmly in the get rid camp, he has been a constant during the complete failure of the football club. Hanging on to one day of glory a very, very...

    Mowbray or Waggott

    Waggott has often said he would recruit the "type" of player Pressley had identified and not the player that he wanted. I can't see Mowbray working with that arrangement. Let Waggott do the negotiating with the leeches, sorry agents but leave the choice of player to the manager. After all his...
