    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    I think this is the way it will go even if ccfc unearth a gem at the age of 10/11 he won't be here at 16 remember Daniel Sturridge, The big boys have it virtually sewn up and if they want to poach a starlet will do what it takes to get him.

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    Yes we were well conned with that episode, but we were sloppy too, Graham Hover again ??

    Michael Mifsud

    Strange player Mifsud, started off as a world beater, ripping defences apart with his amazing pace but soon became useless. Saying that at the time put managers, Coleman was one just couldn't build a forward line to suit him and I think he had attitude too, thought he was a superstar

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    Nothing is different to years gone by, just the fees are higher, I can quote Dennis Mortimer, Graham Paddon, Brian Alderson, Paul Dyson, Andy Blair, Danny Thomas, Chris Kirkland, Mark Hateley, Garry Thompson, there are many others all sold for at the time decent fees and played top level...

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    Grendel had a point, the word Acadamy has replaced the words youth team, principles are the same really. Players young as 9 get spotted, offered to sign a contract and either get released at 10,11, 12 and so on or stay until a decision is made as to their future at 16, no different to years ago...

    It isn't Bigiriamma that's the problem it's the way the team is set up and asked to play

    Jodi Jones

    Jodie Jones was brought on v Bury and was holding his groin from the minute he came on, clearly not fit and a candidate for a long lay off, why ? Mowbray is risking being down to 10 men should all our subs be used up and any player with an iffy groin issue isn't going to be that effective is he...

    Midfield Problem

    Disagree, we have forwards over 6 feet tall and pace that creates space and problems for any defence, don't need to have 6 foot 4 lumps up top to be affective you need mobility.

    Midfield Problem

    Pointed the potential midfield problem weeks ago too weak for this division, and no creativity, remedy ? well we can't recruit until xmas so we have to change tactility, at start of a match i'd go route one, hate to say it but that's the way with the players we have i'd go from back to front and...

    Tony Mowbray

    I don't think Tony Mowbray should be sacked on the back of the Fleetwood result and performance, he had a number of new players available, kids, and needs a bit of time to sort them out, but the way we are set up, play tactically and managed throughout a game lands on the TM doorstep, is it him...

    I'm gonna start this off...

    My worry is should TM go we will have that con man prick Chris Anderson picking the next manager !

    Free Agents

    I would think if there is any other newbies it would be centre-mid, we could still have a problem there depending how long Rose is out for, any up dates on him ?

    Physicality / League 1

    Do agree Nick, although we now have plenty of six footers I'm not sure our midfield perhaps apart from Rose can deal with some of the "thug" we have in that department in this division. Don't expect too much protection from referees either.

    CCFC summer transfer window signings 2016/17

    Still would have liked an enforcer midfielder with a bit nous but let's see how it pans out, I am more hopeful today than I was a week ago. One thing I will say to the moaning plebs that frequent this website who expect free signings and young loanees to be on a par with Ronaldo or Messi, Give...

    SISU / Anderson

    We are what we are a third division club, Maddison was a third division player with about 20 games to his name and back from long term injury. We don't know the fee anything from 2 to 7 million been quoted, suspect with add pn the figure to be no more than 4 million.i haven't noticed huge...

    Attackers. Top heavy or healthy options?

    I think Tony Mowbray has played a bit of percentage game with his strikers, we now have a lot of basically untried youngsters all on loan, all with highly regarded futures but I doubt they will all come off. Think it's a smart move to be honest.

    If that's the lot for CB's...

    Not CB that concerns me its midfield not tough enough imo or tall enough with Rose out, but apart from that the squad doesn't look too bad to me. All teams at this level struggle with lots of injuries.
