    New start...........

    How about jointly owned 50% stake by the fans, 50% by the owners of the Ricoh, i.e. the Council and the Higgs trust. A true football team of the city. We could then have a deal with the Ricoh to cover the costs on match days, and pocket the difference. If we could sell tickets at about £8 each...

    Administration- gets you to the premier league

    I never moaned about Sisu not spending money. if theres no money to spend theres no money to spend. I just think administration has been the easy way out for a lot of teams, and those who try to play within the rules have ended up worse off.

    Administration- gets you to the premier league

    but bristol own their stadium, which covers the cost of that debt and then some. And rather then go into administration to wipe the debt they are trying to cut it fairly.

    Administration- gets you to the premier league

    Also if we had gone into admin before Sisu bought us, the £40 million Sisu spent to cover debts could have been used to buy a share in the Ricoh, and spend on players. 10 points deduction is not a very big punishment if a couple of seasons later you'll be in the premier league, or at least...

    Administration- gets you to the premier league

    Southampton went into administration a couple of years ago, wiped there debt, caused small companies that they owed money to to go bust. But by doing that they have got into the premier league. Leeds went into administration, they now have more money then us. we are trying to play fair, keep...

    The reason for the FA Cup shirt

    I heard from a friend who works with City Link that the reason City Links name isn't on the FA Cup shirt is because they are trying to avoid negative publicity with the protest that is going on today, and being associated with a club who's management can't run the business properly. He said...

    We will lose tonight

    at least we will play entertaining football, which is a pleasure to watch, rather then the rubbish that we have served up the last few seasons! I'm looking forward to the game tonight, will be good

    We have a damn good team, all we need to do is score goals

    I think that todays performance showed we have a very good emerging young team, we played well and dominated what is arguably a premiership team, we were unlucky and five shakey minutes as usualy undid us. If we could score a couple more goals, or had a better strike force then we would be top...

    Gary Deegan

    Ok, I am not sure if I have missed something, or has Gary Deegan left the club, or is he injured again? I think if he is still with the club and can get fit he could be another great player for us along with all the other youngsters we have!

    Palace Predictions

    apologies, I wasn't counting preseason I meant to put 3, just been a busy day at work. I think Sisu need to put their hand in their pockets quick, if Thorn was given a bit of money with the way we play we could be up in the top 10, all it would take is a couple of quality signings

    Palace Predictions

    because the team have lost 4 in a row, so they will either go all out on the attack and then be vulnerable at the back, or they will let one in and their heads will go down and fall apart.

    Palace Predictions

    4-0 to Palace Thorn to get sacked in the morning, Carsley to be put in temporary charge. I want Thorn to succeed but can see Sisu not giving him any time, or money

    Andy Thorn's views on King saga

    I think it's a big shame we lost him, and the club should look at legal implications. Don't forget the agent probably wouldn't get any money from the deal with cov as he was already here, but the blues deal he would have got a signing on fee. So the agent probably had the contract sitting in his...

    Clouting - Transfer Embargo to be lifted next week

    Rumours I have heard is that we only wanted to pay the wages up until the 15th october when he was injured, but Bolton think we should pay for the whole 3 month loan period.

    The Guardian - Ray Ranson / Same division but different rules for Cardiff City

    Cardiff are a disgrace, how have they got away with owing HMRC millions with no transfer embargo, and how have they been allowed to bring bellamy in with man city paying over half the wages, they are an absolute disgrace, and are cheats and should be kicked out of the football league!

    Saturday live tv games

    I believe that's 6 times this season they have been on the BBC, and we haven't been on the BBC once in 2 years. It's a disgrace, all the extra money Leeds will be getting, and at the start of the season we were up in the top 6, an utter disgrace. Down with the Leeds

    Surprised by some of our future 'fans'

    I took my 8 year old daughter and 6 year old son for the first time at the end of last season, and there were several kids behind me with one fat lady, and all game they were using the C word, fing and blinding, threatening to kill the players, chop off colemans testicles. I asked them at half...
