    What are the odds on that? I guess they get shorter each time...so seems like we are all set to score very soon then - wouldn't you just know it!

    I think Otis if we lose on Tuesday our confidence will be shot. if we win the lift it will give will be more than if Wycombe win. Why? Because Coventry will be a story worthwhile running in the main stream media...City back in a cup final again after a 30 year gap etc etc. That will lift...

    With a game in hand over Swindon and 5 behind do we have a lifeline? Still play Swindon at home and we play those around us in the next 6 games. So beat 4 of those teams and draw 2 and we will likely be out the bottom 4. That is our lifeline. First we have to win at Oldham. Otis will remember...

    Well we can stay up. But it requires a turnaround that looks unlikely under Slade. he has been an abject failure so far. Regardless of Fisher/SISU he has a good enough squad even if they don't look like it now. His recruitment has not improved us but worsened us. He has failed to create a side...

    We are not the only ones are we? Bury looking at that table...what the hell happened to them? Are SISU in charge there too?

    You can't steady a sinking ship. First you have to repair the holes,change the captain at the helm who drove it into the rocks and then fight like hell to keep it afloat until you find a new port and investment to rebuild.

    Well Slade has been unable to motivate his players for the fight or give them a decent game plan. I was one who thought he was a breath of fresh air at first with sensible conversation and a likable manner with experience all over this league. Seeing what he has achieved so far I'd be inclined...

    Grendal Oggy has coached these two poor goalkeepers and clearly has not improved them. What's your point?

    Just looked at the team and once again uninspired by Slade's picks and his formation. I will simply hope I'm completely wrong and football being a funny old game we actually win when least expected. I'm wondering if Slade is trying to keep us up knowing we must win our home games and then some...

    The 'hope' makes all the difference. Everybody hopes we get a chance to have a crack at the championship.

    You forget one thing. It never really goes the way you see it does it? Its unpredictable even for CCFC. Far too many parameters to make a prediction. As so often happens results will be surprising either way. The only thing we can do is judge how we play the next few games. If we gather a couple...

    I don't think many are bothered tbh. A Checkertrade final? It just confirms to a lot of people how far we have slipped. Even winning a largely pointless trophy has little interest to the over 30's crowd who are in despair at our plight. If you offered me staying up at the price of this mickey...

    What this transfer window tells you

    I believe we have the players to be doing much better. I also believe we need a goalscorer like Armstrong who can be relied upon for a goal. Top that with Slades seemingly ineptitude in both tinkering too much with the side and his poor tactics. We don't have the personnel to play the way he...

    What this transfer window tells you

    Perhaps I'm not keeping up but we didn't get anyone in? BUT we kept our star players? So each year we call them out for selling our best to cash in (Madison etc) but when they don't do that you are complaining? dammed if you do and dammed if you don't?

    After watching video highlights I see we were terrible in defense for all 3 goals that were easily defendable. Burge on that cross was darn right Sunday league. The team he put out at Swansea would do better. Its too late to set up not to lose, we need to win. A positive set up would also lift...

    I've been away and only glanced at the team earlier. When I saw it I had no confidence we could win. Beginning to think Slade is struggling. If that's the case I'm surprised. The next game has to be a win. Fail to do so and I fear it could become fatal. Not certain but looking grim.
