    Realistic signings

    Regarding the various comments about needing more experienced extra defensive cover, I honestly don't see the point unless it is a player expected to be a regular starter. We have Pask, Drysdale, Williams and even Thompson already at the club as back up and if you take the viewpoint that we...

    CCFC 20/21 fixtures released tomorrow

    Results tend to be a bit unpredictable to start of seasons so I would prefer to have a few of the tougher games to begin with, where things will be a bit more even than they might be later in the season. For the same reasons I would rather not play Wycombe until later on, as they are more likely...

    Championship Club Membership - 1st Sept

    To be honest while games are BCD I don't understand why they would stop fans from the UK accessing ifollow anyway. I guess the season ticket might not be appropriate, as it could roll over once fans are allowed back into grounds, but I would like to see UK based fans allowed to buy individual...

    Championship Club Membership - 1st Sept

    Its a bit of a quandry for the ST holders who previously accessed ifollow for the away games through VPN's, and will be interesting to see what they choose to do. Will they purchase this membership and ifollow on top of that, therefore paying £390, or will they forego their season ticket for the...

    Sunderland fans crying "again"

    One of the bonuses of promotion is that hopefully this bullshit 'rivalry', and some of our fans obsession with it, dies a death.

    Blog Do City need to strengthen their attacking options?

    I would be surprised if we go for a Chris Martin type. Its financially high risk for no potential return. We don't want another Darius Henderson!! MR favour's one up front anyway, which requires a mobile forward who can do a lot of running, which naturally means he is more likely to be looking...

    Transfer Rumour Graham Carey

    We already have Shipley, Hilsner, Bapaga and Jones to play in his position, not to mention Randell Williams who you have also tipped up for a move to us. Seems a very unlikely transfer to me.

    Transfer Rumour Randell Williams

    Sounds like baseless rubbish to me. Saw him in the play offs, and yes is skilful but very lightweight. Not only does he look like Jodie Jones, he plays like him too, but I think Jones is better.

    Who was mainly to blame for our relegation from League 1

    We weren't shit, but at times we did struggle to get the better of teams with plainly inferior players, losing as many as 15 league games in the process. The Winter months were the toughest, whereby League 2 pitches were generally poor (including ours), and where refs tended to be lenient to...

    2020/21 ifollow

    It makes sense for the EFL/ FA to put a temporary halt to the ban on live games being shown in the UK that are played on Saturday afternoons while games are BCD, and clubs can't get any gate income. When fans go back then revert to the old regulations if that is what they want. Given the...

    Who was mainly to blame for our relegation from League 1

    Although Mowbray set us on the way with poor Summer transfers and a bad start, when he left there was plenty of time to turn things round, or at least not to be relegated anyway. As such I think Venus and Slade were more culpable. You have to be seriously bad to get relegated from league 1 and...

    2020/21 ifollow

    Any games live on Sky are not shown on ifollow regardless of whether you are abroad or in the UK. Although they did show EFL Trophy games, other cup games are also not shown.

    Season tickets - how does this work?

    Of course in reverse, when we have seasons like last season our season ticket holders could/ should pay a premium having watched a winning team on the cheap :)

    Blog Do City need to strengthen their attacking options?

    I've got a feeling that MR will look to bring in a PL forward on loan to challenge Godden as a starter, and that it might not be sorted until the transfer deadline.

    Ex Player Watch

    Not good enough for Blackburn and for me would be a disappointing signing. Luckily he was Mowbray's man anyway, & I don't recall MR ever expressing any interest in him. 7 goals in 53 games for Blackburn says it all.

    Ricoh

    The problems you mention with the Ricoh are also likely to exist at Warwick Uni, with same lack of facilities (even worse in terms of pubs). It's about the same distance from the city as the Ricoh, so people that moan about the Ricoh being too far from the city will be able to continue to do so...

    Season ticket refunds

    I'm sure the low number wanting refunds was largely due to our good season with people thinking they got their moneys' worth from the games that were played. I am sure if we had finished in the bottom half that far more would have been wanting a refund.

    Has your opinion of Birmingham changed?

    Possibly, I got the impression that the large groups looking for Cov fans going back to the station after the game, outside the Digbeth pubs was more organised than a knee jerk response to some Cov kids shouting their mouths off, and were lads that hadn't even been to the game (or at best had...
