    Gary Hoffman

    I dont have much faith in it happening, or any real reason to trust in any of the process nor that it wont be more of the same that has got us to here over the last 10 years if it does. But at least GH is trying to do something, there does not seem to be anyone else. Cut him slack, if there is...

    The question is the squad good enough

    I agree they do have better resources, but by achieving more than we think shouldnt we grow from that not repeatedly shrink back. This is not a great Division - lot of very average teams but it often isnt the better teams that we dont compete against it is the likes of Bristol etc - yes they...

    The question is the squad good enough

    I dont ignore it dongonzalos just tired of seeing a couple of players playing with passion Keogh for example and too many this season not or not giving enough. We have failed to compete too many times and that is not just down to quality but then we get the odd game where we match a top team...

    The question is the squad good enough

    on your bike ......I have never since day one, unlike some, supported SISU or apologised for them So we didnt match Cardiff, Birmingham, West Ham Macca. We are capable of it. We dont have a big squad no but clearly AT can do no wrong. I am just tired of all the excuses for the team and...

    Can you blame Thorn today?

    Didnt go to match so hard to comment really on today. Maybe substitutions could have been sooner maybe Thomas or Bell should have been on the bench academic really if the passion and desire to go out and actually beat a poor team isnt there. Wouldnt blame him for the substitutions but surely he...

    The question is the squad good enough

    But the key results since Xmas are not about the squad being good enough..... it has been about a team set up to sit back and players not wanting it enough not caring enough.... Forest, Bristol, Leicester, Reading etc Team is good enough to match most teams in division but lack any real...

    Terrible, just terrible + Ratings... Ha

    bottling it or disappointing when the chips are down is not new at CCFC is it. Seems to me it isnt about the size or age of the squad it is more about the whole ethos at CCFC. Successive managers have failed to instill a positive winning belief over the last 10 years. We are not asking players...

    Marcus Hall agrees to be manager

    he said he would do anything asked of him for the club because CCFC is in his blood .....an attitude many at our club could learn from and emulate He wasnt seriously putting himself forward as manager - but really loves the club so when asked by a fan said he would manage if asked and be...

    Last kick

    http://ar.fifa.com/mm/document/affederation/generic/81/42/36/lawsofthegame_2011_12e.p - FIFA Laws of the game Dont see anything in the rules that says referees have to continue play because a team is attacking. For me the whistle went before Clingan hit the shot but irrelevant really it didnt...

    Who is our biggest rival?

    as a club and in so many different ways we are simply unrivalled :whistle:;)

    Biggest failure of the season

    On an individual basis and CCFC connected I would say Eastwood - expensive waste of talent that has achieved nothing for us this season when we really needed it (on the reverse biggest success so far any of our youngsters but possibly Bigirimana edges it or maybe cyrus) In the championship I...

    season 2012/2013

    I think there will be plenty of players looking for teams in the summer. If we stay up then perhaps Clingan & Crainie might stay, but they could both leave along with Wood. McPake still has a year left but I think ROD will be offloaded. I would expect Platt to be offered a one year contract...

    Stan Collymore -Thorn

    Personally I dont think leaving is entering AT's thought processes. Quite rightly he is entirely focussed on this season and staying up in this division. So with respect I dont think we need to be worrying about it just now either. That said I think (a) the guy loves being here and realises he...

    November L 4 D 1 Verses March W 2 D 3 L 1 Players available and used

    Think it is a bit early to start worrying about this to be honest. There are going to be a lot of players seeking new clubs in the summer and the wages they can demand will come down as supply outstrips demand. We have also got rid of some expensive dead wood (Eastwood) that will free up...

    Norwood

    His strength will come with playing games .......... but i dont think size stopped the likes of Messi, Modric, Silva etc ....... not in that class obviously but he has time to develop and could become a MUFC regular in that time - is kind of getting to a fork in the road when he has to decide...
