    Match Thread Swindon Town Friendly

    I don't think it's a particularly easy formation to just swap multiple players in and out of or introduce new signings in to either. I've no idea how close Swindon's starting XI was to their best team but we'd have looked loads better with Kelly and Godden in our starting XI I'm sure.

    His passing has been ropey.

    Winch operators for Kastaneer and Hilsner. What's the third one for?

    Why do you think that is? Lack of respect for the division he's come from?

    Match Thread Swindon Town Friendly

    People have seen Allen last year, know what he is capable and recognise he is not playing in his natural position. Of course Hilssner is under more scrutiny from fans, he's a new signing and people are getting their first looks at him. It's human nature.

    A German in the bomb squad. There's a joke in there somewhere.

    I know I'm always fat shaming the players but Hilssner looks a bit porky to me.

    Was hoping it might mean he was in talks somewhere else!

    Who was mainly to blame for our relegation from League 1

    I see what you're saying but Lincoln were all but guaranteed playoffs with 2 games to go - they were 6 points clear with a +3 better GD than Mansfield. They coasted through those last 2 games with one eye on the playoffs. I don't think their final 2 results would have been the same if there was...

    Who was mainly to blame for our relegation from League 1

    We still lost it, I was just disagreeing with the 'never looked back' comment really. The results were W3 D1 L2 after the Yeovil game. Half decent form but nothing amazing. I felt at the time, and still do, that Mansfield lost their play off place more than us earning it - their form was...

    Wasserman.....

    That's Waterman's evil doppelgänger who lives in our twin city Dresden.

    Season start date confirmed. + fixture release date

    They will have had 6 months without a competitive game by the time we kick off. Barring injury, they won't get a longer break in all their careers!

    Return to football rules for fans - Your say

    People who go to the bar before the first half is finished because guaranteeing a half-time pint is more important than actually watching the football.

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    I'm not sorry really. I'd just got my Like-Post ratio up to 1.4 likes per post and don't want to risk alienating posters, who may like my posts in the future, by appearing to be on either side of a 'politics' thread. I was just beating a hasty retreat!

    New Stadium Announcement!!!!!!

    I've broken my golden football forum rule today, about not engaging in the non-footy stuff. I would like to humbly apologise to everyone involved.

    Who was mainly to blame for our relegation from League 1

    In a moment of rare weakness last week, I happened to click on one of the fan picked 'best in your lifetime CCFC XIs' they've been running on the offal and the poor lad had picked Reice Charles-Cook as his keeper. He was a teenager tbf but still! He must have seen at least one of Westwood...

    Who was mainly to blame for our relegation from League 1

    Suspect that was Mowbray's decision but based on a shitty SISU budget and was eventually a key learning point when they brought Robins in.
