    Transfer Rumour Bobby Clark

    All signings and loans are a gamble - albeit in our recent history a much better researched gamble. In the worst case scenario, signing a young player for £2 million and then paying £600K every year for the next 4 years is a gamble - that player could flop and have no re-sale value. We're...

    Match Thread Stoke away 10th August 12:30 - Opening day!

    Allen is a tidy player but for me he lacks power and dynamism as a defensive midfielder at this level.

    Match Thread Stoke away 10th August 12:30 - Opening day!

    Would go with this as well. Would like to see EMC, BTA on from around 60 minutes as they look top class. Happy for Palmer to rotate into the Torp position later in the game - Palmer's very technical and looks good with Rudoni. There's so much more pace and power in the team vs. a couple of years...

    Video BRANDON THOMAS-ASANTE SIGNS FOR COVENTRY! | MY JOURNEY TO CITY... 🩵

    This is a million times better than the welcome videos we've seen over the last couple of years with the totally inane welcome questions. As a couple of classic examples: 'Looking forward to meeting the lads at training and working with the gaffer?' 'How do you feel about playing in front of...

    when was the darkest era for the club?

    Dark times indeed as we fell down the leagues. Homeless. Hopeless. No future. On the other side seeing this club rise again under the return of Robins - the last 7 years have by far been the most amazing and meaningful times in supporting the club. My first game was in 1978 and nothing...

    What do we still need?

    Think you are right / shows our progress.

    What do we still need?

    One question is how to play Saka, EMC, Simms, Wright in our first choice. Most of us would like to see those 4 as starters. Signs are pointing to a 4-3-3. Could Saka work as one on the midfield 3: Saka, Sheaf, Rudoni. Top 3: EMC, Simms, Wright. Not saying it’s likely but can’t see another way to...

    What can’t you wait to see again?

    Mobbing up at the Wheatsheaf, donning the Stone Island and following the midget 13 year olds into battle after that tv programme.

    What can’t you wait to see again?

    The first tactical genius in the crowd to loudly shout ‘shooooot.’ Excepted within 5 mins of the opening fixture.

    Viveash gone

    Just for consideration. Would you consider appointing 'the girls' for the cannon firing t-shirts into the crowd game changer or leave it to those 'mad hatter' blokes to run that operation? I personally feel that the hatters would miss the brief and mistakenly load real cannon balls - causing...

    George Boateng is back and Rhys Carr appointed as 1st team coaches

    100% with you Herts, George B is in my best ever 11 as well.

    Summer transfer window 2024

    How’s the idea of firing t-shirts out of cannons for some first class half time entertainment going? I can hardly wait for the opening game if that’s on offer.

    Podcast Episode 277 – The second best end of season review podcast

    Half way through - excellent as always. On the debate for the most important positions to recruit, the key additions from my perspective are as follows: GK/CB/AM. I'd be in the camp that the players recruited for those positions are at a top class level i.e. first names on the team sheet for...

    King before a testimonial. 'Hooligans get em off the pitch' was the very loud shout behind me which got quite a few laughs in the Main Stand. HR and bands never seemed to work.

    Are you 100% bipolar skybluedownunder? In the space of a couple of posts you've gone from wanting to go around firing t-shirt cannons with the Mad Hatters in your free time ('to bring the families back') to this? 10/10 for the most bizarre posting of the close season though.

    Football Ground Entertainment

    I really don't need to see the crowd becoming the thing - shots of Dad's dancing at the CBS, the Mad Hatters desperately looking for more attention, kiss your wife for the cameras type of thing, cannons launching t-shirts into the crowd, 'raise the noise' super fans. Total Americanized...

    Football Ground Entertainment

    The day we have a t-shirt cannon at the CBS (and it's viewed as first class entertainment) is the day I walk out never to return. Football would have truly died. And I love 'we live and die.' It's part of our identity and anyone who was at Wembley could only feel proud on hearing the way it...

    Hadji Wright's Winner at Wolves

    To be honest Swanny my emotional connection to CCFC vs. the England is about a million times in favour of Cov - and the gap is only getting bigger as the years roll on. So can’t compare.

    Hadji Wright's Winner at Wolves

    I agree with everyone on here. The only thing I would say is that for the Torp goal - I was in a state of shock, disbelief and near emotional exhaustion after 120 minutes. So it was out of this world but I couldn't quite believe what I was seeing. The Hamer goal still tops it for me -...

    Best goal of the cup run?

    Not even a debate. Wright. Best moment of the season - just perfect. Apart from the 90 seconds of disbelief and joy at Wembley.
