    would you rather?

    Which assertion do you quibble with? Defence, midfield or attack? Miserable or realistic? I am perfectly chilled, since you ask. I was resigned to this season being a near miss after the 3 Crewe games. Bit better than the previous dozen seasons though.

    I joined the Trust yesterday...

    Indeed, I thought that a given, maybe not.

    would you rather?

    Anyone who thinks we would win promotion from the play offs this season is seriously deluded. The team is weak. Defence: slow and mistake prone; the midfield is in disarray and the forwards, without Clarke and, possibly Baker in the run in, would have little chance IMO.

    I joined the Trust yesterday...

    I joined yesterday too. It seems like the only thing ordinary fans can do given all the decision making is out of our hands.:claping hands:

    Statement from fisher

    Like Lehman bros, Northern Rock and all those other financiers had expert advice, you mean? I don't quite get this blind faith that aggressive, ball breaking investment companies are really clever and don't crash and burn sometimes. SISU may well have more cards to play but they will lose money...

    ACL council Higgs

    There is an inconsistency in your argument here. You have many times implied that ACL were ripping off the club by charging too high a rent, but now you say "1.28mill isn't much if you're in the Prem." The rent was either too high or it wasn't. Either way SISU were late in the day making such an...

    43 million and they Fokked it up.

    Rearrange the words, evasion, laundering, tax, creative, money, dummy, corporation and accounting. There's your £43 million or whatever figure you decide.

    Mark Labovitch re administration

    BTW, saw 2 young chaps in suits at last year's legends day sit down, scoff the food, ignore everyone else,talk through the MC introduction of old players, then they left at about 2.30. This is why some of us have little respect for corporates and their ilk.

    Mark Labovitch re administration

    Ferret, I'm yanking your chain. Calm down bud. I take your point that it may be below the standard expected, and paid for, by corporates. Just a different world than mine. And, yes, my school does Market itself to hold training events ... But teachers get excited when there is a clean cup...

    Mark Labovitch re administration

    We haven't had hot water or drinking water in the building I work in ... For 4 years. I might start crying over a bit of litter in a minute.

    Mark Labovitch re administration

    You should try working in a school. The corporate bits of the Ricoh are like a luxury hotel in comparison! Can't believe how pampered business people expect to be!

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    How did you draw that conclusion? We have little influence on who buys and sells football clubs. Ask Pompey fans.

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    You need to mix with a few Villa, Albion or Wolves fans. Our fans are more level headed but just as cynical.

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    Yes but football clubs are businesses; we all realised that when we kept selling all our decent players long ago. If SISU cannot run the business, despite allegedly pouring in millions, you would expect them to move aside and let someone else. If they have bought a pup which they cannot sell...

    Cold tomorrow night so there is zero chance of a boycott unless you want to see tartan flasks.

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    SISU are current owners. We owe no more loyalty to them than we do to the owners of any business we frequent. Do you feel loyal to the owners and shareholders of Wetherspoons, Tesco, Nike, Microsoft, Samsung etc?

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    Ah, I thought being idealistic was another form of keeping the faith.

    SISU say they may "get out of town" next week

    We support CCFC not SISU or ACL or CCC. You seem to equate SISU with CCFC which is making you Myopic.
