    Dennis Law RIP

    But we scored first through Terry Bly in front of a 44,000 crowd. I remember the newspaper report that said 'when the cheering had died down to a crescendo'. Great times

    Vegetarian Football Chants !

    Apparently when Walsall played Forest Green Rovers and one of their players was rolling around on the ground injured, the Walsall fans chanted 'That vegan bastard, he's eating our grass'.

    Reflections

    I've watched CCFC play in 9 different divisions, witnessed 5 promotions and 4 relegations. Mark Robins moving on is just football, and does not detract from the huge contribution he's made.

    No, I wasn't there, but we've just come from 2-0 down away to the league leaders without a number of key players. Hasn't anyone got a good word to say?

    NEW CHANT

    My heart tells me it's the wrong decision, but my head tells me that after 4 wins, 4 draws and 13 defeats in our last 21 games, something had to change.

    European influx

    Now if only you'd said 'Which part of Australia is in Europe?', I could have said 'Austria', but life is full of missed opportunities

    European influx

    Not sure if there's been a thread on this before, but someone in Europe is doing a good scouting job - Wright, Van Ewijk, Sakamoto, Binks, Dovin, Torp, Rodrigues, Bassette. Long may it continue.

    From The Times today

    Quick off the mark Coventry’s Ellis Simms, facing Leeds United, scored his tenth first-half goal in his past eight appearances in all competitions over the past six weeks, twice as many as any other league player in that period (Wrexham’s Paul Mullin is next with five).

    Ticketing

    A friend of mine who is coming across from Holland with family members for the Leeds game has inadvertently bought an under-18 ticket for his nephew who is already 18. He needs to know whether to do anything about it. Is there any form of age check on entry?
