    Anyone recall this game ?

    Score is a bit misleading as City were leading 4-1 going into the last few minutes. Two late United goals made it sound a lot closer than it actually was. City completely outplayed them.

    Mediation talks underway

    Will Tim now say at the meeting, judge me after talks with the council? If these talks do take place you would hope that Sisu are serious and do not simply go in with a set of demands and flounce out again if they don't get them. For the sake of the club something like this has to work. The...

    Just thinking too that travel to some of those places in the days before motorways would not have been easy. Did you travel by car or train? How long did it take to get to places like Barrow, Carlisle, Workington, Gateshead and Torquay? The other thing that is quite scary about this list bearing...

    Must have been great to follow that team. Mentioned on another thread today that I had been looking at stats for that season. Several gates over 20k the largest of which was 28k for the visit of Port Vale. City had the biggest gates in the division. So you will be one of the few City fans that...

    Compilation of shocking CCFC stats 2016/17

    The only reason we ended up in the fourth division is that the old third north and south divisions were being amalgamated and the fourth division formed. As far as I can tell ( I wasn't around at the time and stand to be corrected), the fourth division was formed from the clubs who finished in...

    More excitement in 30 seconds of that game than there was in the whole 95 mins on Tuesday night.

    He always made a joke of it by saying in interviews how he would look in the deaths column of the local Swindon paper to see how business was doing! I think It was both him and Mike Summerbee who were grave diggers.

    Saw it was by Ghandi and Googled it when I got home. Can't remember my own phone number, no chance of memorising that!

    Unfortunately not. I know he was an advocate of peaceful resistance. Not sure how that would work with regard to Sisu.

    Funny what you see in the chip shop.

    I was in the chip shop in Kingsbury this evening waiting to be served. And noticed that they had the quote below stencilled on the wall facing the counter so that everyone working there would see it. It is a quote from Ghandi. A customer is the most important visitor on our premises. He is not...

    Fan ownership, why won't it work?

    Following an AFC club would be a matter of choice. I am sure that many would fall away. For me, a Phoenix club that is built in the image of CCFC, sky blue and all of the traditions, would be the continuation of our club. If CCFC folded that would be down to Sisu, not the fans. A viable...

    Fan ownership, why won't it work?

    The fact that AFC exists at all is because the original fans made sure it didn't die. It is not surprising that in the near 20 years since the formation of AFC that the demographic of the fans changes. How many younger fans post on here and say they have never known anything but misery and gloom...
