    if there was a fully fit team

    There doesn't seem to be a set in stone first XI from what I can see, which is good as it helps prevent complacency. I get the felling that where the competition for places is stiffest that the person holding the shirt will keep it unless they underperform or get injured. Marosi, Dabo, Hamer...

    No bottomless pit

    It seems a fairly obvious sales gimmick at the moment, but are the club selling CCFC face masks?

    Hamer vs Walsh

    Hamer looks good, but this is typically knee jerk of the OP. If we were to sign Walsh, guaranteed that he would immediately be calling him the greatest again. If Hamer has an off day, or more likely gets himself sent off and costs us a game, first one to come on here calling him out will be the OP.

    Few things to note

    You need to go and read a few of the match threads when he first joined and stepped in for the injured Kelly. There were plenty on here who thought he wasn't up to it and that he was defensively suspect. Walsh significantly stepped his game up once Kelly came back in the team, and the rest is...

    The Walsh Talk

    I completely disagree, the squad was nowhere near good enough. We had only finished 18th the previous season when we had players like Westwood, Turner, Gunnarsson and King at our disposal. The sum of their replacements were Joe Murphy and Chris Dunn. Then in the January window Jutkiewicz was...

    Mcfadzean

    I think we are blessed with good defenders who each bring something to the party and complement each other. I don't find it that easy to rank them in order. McFadzean certainly brings experience and leadership to the team as one of his strengths and will be the first defender named on the team...

    Other than set pieces we never threatened, which was disappointing, The front 3 struggled and nothing really worked for them. No faulting their effort - it just wasn't their day. Marosi - 6 Dabo - 6 Ostigaard - 7 McFadzean - 7 Hyam -7 Giles - 7 Sheaf - 6 Hamer - 7 Allen - 5 O'Hare - 5 Godden - 5

    The stats from their Chelsea game show they had 14 shots with 9 on target, which tends to back up the Barnsley fans statements about them creating loads but not scoring. While that should be a positive for us, there will undoubtedly be some game somewhere that it does click for them, so just...

    I haven't seen a proper analysis of the results of BCD games but my impression is that there has been a significant decrease in home wins from before BCD started. If so, I think bookies have been a bit slow in adapting their odds to that situation, and which therefore leads to potentially much...

    Absolutely. People are more likely to obtain and pay for the streams lawfully if they think the income is going to the club they support.

    IFollow revenue interesting breakdown

    We will have far more subscribers than Colchester for a start, and we are also in a league where just about every team except maybe Wycombe will hit the 500 max for away fans. Remember also for every one we sell over 500 for away matches we receive the money. It would be good to know what the...

    ifollow changes this season?

    I suspect that it will be nigh on impossible to navigate your way to the replay of the game without seeing the score somewhere on the CCFC site first.

    A (probably useless) tip for re-watching some games!

    Isn't it also available on the CCFC site if you are registered there?

    I will be very surprised if he starts straight away. I will be expecting Giles to be still starting at LWB next Saturday.

    Championship Club Membership - 1st Sept

    ifollow was set up for the EFL to operate in the overseas market & not in the UK. That is why up to this season viewers in the UK have had to use a VPN to access those streams. As of last season (I think) they started opening up midweek games only, to UK viewers also on a match by match basis...

    Match Thread Coventry City vs QPR

    Their 2nd goal was more down to an unlucky set of circumstances than actual bad defending in my opinion. If Ostigard hadn't challenged for it Dabo would have had a comfortable clearance, but as a centre back you prefer your defenders to attack the ball than leave it to others, so my criticism of...

    Was a clumsy challenge nevertheless which allowed the ref to make the decision. McFadz more than made up for it though, and coming to win from being behind will do the team's confidence no end of good moving forward, so no harm done.

    I hope you are right but ........ bookies make their money from favourites losing, which of course they frequently do
