I’m sure Cranfield wouldn’t consume to excess like that. He obviously missed out a decimal point, and actually had three very modest 500ml glasses, which equates to 2.6 pints.

Indeed he did point the finger at the Council, and was full of praise for Joy & Tim even as he walked out on them in the middle of the battle. I somehow doubt they would be keen to sign him up again. I know what you mean about the slump - it would obviously have come! But personally I think...

Indeed. Is it going too far to imagine him reporting to Ms Seppala’s office with an A-Level Statistics book tucked down the back of his trousers?

I loved it while Robins was the manager, but it’s hard to overlook the fact that he cleared his desk and walked out on us like spoilt child. And I doubt if Joy has forgotten that either.

Really disappointed that TM is sticking with such a small team and trying to play our way neatly out of this tough league. Fine while it was working, but we have been completely sussed, and to defeat the system teams really only need to work hard on closing us down. We have no physical...

Ms Seppala appears to be saying that we were run by the wrong people until 2012. But the things that have happened since then represent an improvement, and everybody at the club is working to a clear plan that the fans understand. Thank goodness for that. We need a rent reduction, well...

Yep. Supporting the Sky Blues has been the natural thing to do for the whole of my life, even when things weren’t going well on the pitch. But this lot have made it harder and f***ing harder to stay on board. How do you follow something that’s slowly going round and round in circles?

Chris Anderson, managing director of CCFC, added that he was confident a mutually beneficial long-term deal could be agreed with Ricoh Arena landlords Wasps. It's just a much stronger indication then we've had before. No doubt there's an element of putting pressure on Wasps by going public in...

This is an extremely welcome U-turn as far as I am concerned, and might even be a first step on the path back to sanity. But what an embarrassing picture it paints of SISU’s competence in these last few years. I have always felt that a mutually beneficial relationship could be developed with...

If you enter “sisu” into Google Translate as a Finnish word, you get the following alternatives:- go spunk grit guts perseverance pluck balls bottle Take your pick, but I suspect that the first one is the least likely, and there will be very little of the second one (at least when it...

He’s a politician, not a Civil Servant! In the radio transcript, he expresses a very negative opinion of SISU. He then immediately goes on to give specific and clear reasons - saying that only one side is making any concessions in the talks, that SISU are moving the goalposts etc. He makes...

Maybe if they had said something like "Coun Mutton is not guilty of failing in his duties under the code when declaring his interests" we might all have had a more productive day today? If the Ethics Committee has issued a perverse decision, no doubt we can look forward to yet another round of...

Perhaps I can be of assistance here. Goacher’s report quotes at tedious length the relevant parts of the code of conduct: 5.1 I will: a. register and, where appropriate, disclose those disclosable pecuniary interests that I am obliged to declare under the Localism Act and associated...

I simultaneously posted the same thing on another thread. Those guys were all a big influence on the confidence of the team.

Cheers for doing the donkey work on that Otis – I was too lazy :) So I’ll come up with another lazy theory – that the poor form is down to the loss of a series of dominant personalities at centre back (Johnson, Turner, Martin). Guys like that provide a platform for the team to play with...

I dare say this point has been made elsewhere, but I’d be interested in this season’s stats with & without O’Brien. He’s not the classiest player in the squad, but I think a lot of our early season success was helped by his willingness to run all day, and to constantly fire up the other...

Perhaps you cleaned them out Nick?

Much of what Fletcher says is pointless IMO. Seems to me that the train is pulling away from us, but it’s not because of stadium revenues, it’s because of TV money. The stadium was the vital platform (excuse the pun) we needed ten years ago to establish ourselves in and around the Premier...

The article says: "City come in fifth across all 72 Football League clubs and tenth across all clubs, including the Premier League". It looks like the club may have cherry-picked the statistic about getting Academy players into the first-team, which is arguably a lot easier when you are...

There's a link on the same page about Ben Stevenson coming back well from a long lay-off:- http://www.ccfc.co.uk/news/article/lee-glover-ben-stevenson-sheffield-united-coventry-city-2968336.aspx
