    Three little birds

    Actually rich87 he can do what he likes he is the manager that isnt an issue and i do not have a problem with that - its his job on the line not mine............ but then on the other hand i am entitled to my opinion and to express it if i choose to. Football is all about opinions and in my...

    Boring

    I think it has been linked to the period known as summer this year ........... so basically thats your lot :whistle::D

    Negativity.... Already

    The other factor is the amount of goals scored ..... only 8 teams last year had a positive goal difference...... as yet we have not solved that problem...... we have got to be hitting something like 75 goals next season Over the season we need to be averaging 1.6 points per game to scrape in...

    starting lineup

    shouldn't we be picking the team on current form not what number they wear? :whistle: Not sure we should read too much into the numbers Got no problem with the formation ...... but are we going to play it on the front foot and is there any pace to it ? There doesnt appear to be much pace...

    Three little birds

    I dont like losing blueflint but it happens, upsets happen, teams lose to lower division teams but if they lose having given it a good go, having played a decent game, having been a team then i find it more acceptable. Friendlies throw up strange results but if the players are not "at it" then...

    Negativity.... Already

    so much for the feel good factor and the impetus of the new signings then ......... Just shows how fragile the confidence of many is in CCFC .......... there hasnt been very much to give us confidence in a very long time ......... Some resort to blind faith ...... others to a kind of...

    Three little birds

    Dont think it is the fact we lost hitman it is the manner in which we lost ...... whatever anyone says AT is a vital cog on any match day, is part of the team, for good or bad..... he can get it wrong just as much as the players and i think he contributed to the performance Saturday. Everyone...

    Which first game?

    you can never count on anything with CCFC ! but at that age I am not sure it matters because the place will seem huge to him and he wont have seen so many people in one place i would guess..... just make it a big adventure and he will be hooked :). He will love it. Sheffield is a night game so...

    Thorn: Bruno to get another try "ricky" to be told no + more trialists

    next few friendlies will be interesting then after that ....... just a little bit of concern that there is no clear direction or a good sense of how we are going to achieve things. Early days and I am going to wait see what happens. But when you fail to get a response from a whole team in a...

    Thoughts?

    clearly from the point of view of performance and pressing for places friendlies do matter ....... have to agree with what AT said about that ..... which is also what most people are saying. Next question for AT to answer or figure out is why the players didnt perform - and that isnt all down to...

    Thoughts?

    its not the results in friendlies i am worried about .... it is the standard of our play, and not just in this latest friendly. It may well change with the first team out ..... lets see how they do against Wrexham Tuesday (thats the next one isnt it ?) didnt AT say he was going to play those...

    Thoughts?

    i accept that stupot but surely they work with the whole squad on things like formations, how we set up to defend, have practice matches in training etc. The point i am making is that as a squad we should understand what is going on so if you put in the second or third choice right back they...

    Thoughts?

    Thanks NLHWC. Got a mate who is a nuneaton season ticket holder he described us simply as "terrible" I was trying to be pretty careful with those questions, in that things like fitness, formation, organisation, pace movement are not dependent on the players that were not playing (our...

    thanks for the updates guys :)

    Thoughts?

    no thoughts because i havent seen any of the friendlies but some questions is there any discernible pattern in our play? do we look compact and well organised? what formations are we playing? are we moving the ball forward with any pace? are we creating chances? have we found a leader on the...
