    New contracts

    personally how Baker Bell and McPake got new contracts is beyond me. I understand the financials but those signings do not actually add anything to the assets of the balance sheet, no fee so no value in terms of the accounts. The logic is that it adds to the value of the overall squad which is...

    Why should we let Orange Ken run our club?

    Its only our club morally legally the SISU funds can appoint who they like we the fans have no say in it I wouldnt bet on SISU being here for the long term. The worth is in getting their hands on the stadium at a discount, add that to driving down costs so the club is financially viable then...

    kightley ruled out

    You see that worries me also ..... against Barnsley we played narrow full stop..... McSheffery still tried to play in the diamond though. We surrendered the wings and Barnsley exploited it. We had no width played awfully and got well beaten. We dont actually know what is the best system for the...

    kightley ruled out

    anyone else also concerned not only about not getting Kightly or someone else but the excuse that players must be able to play the diamond formation? There have been flashes in the season so far where that formation has worked but generally the players we have havent looked convincing and the...

    OSBs email: my response

    I got exactly the same response this morning too. So basically the league do not check to see who the members/owners are they take their word for it ! They have not answered the concerns at all. It would seem the Football League is a toothless organisation

    Ian, that perpetual first post game caller on CWR every match

    Personally i would like to hear a few new voices and their opinion.......... or is it CWR simply dont get enough calls? Entitled to his opinion is Ian but find very little of it makes good sense or is very constructive. Negativity breeds negativity Just my opinion. To which I am entitled

    CCFC ATTENDANCE - Myth and Reality

    all good points CSB But look what happened in the season before and after our greatest triumph, even that didnt bring the fans in Bottom line in all this is that given such a large catchment area even averaging 20k in supporters is but a very small percentage of the population available...

    CCFC ATTENDANCE - Myth and Reality

    Here is a statistic in 1987 our average crowd at Highfield Rd was 16120. We all know the significance of the year and we finished 10th in the league I believe. Following season the average was 17509 (finished 10th again) so success brought no big increase in numbers. Just how successful have we...

    CCFC ATTENDANCE - Myth and Reality

    Think moving elsewhere is a non starter Wingy. For a start off the council wouldnt give planning permission and therefore to get a new stadium would mean moving even further away from the core CCFC supporters. It couldnt happen for probably 5 years or more because there would be planning...

    CCFC ATTENDANCE - Myth and Reality

    I think you have a very valid point johnniericoh. We have never had a big support. Ok for the odd match here and there but on average no. That has a big effect on the finances of the club - bums on seats means money in the bank means a decent budget without breaking the bank. Most of the...

    Freddy Eastwood Record

    Well luckily Divedive it isnt me making the decisions ..... clearly AT has had enough though. Freddy is capable of out shining all our current strikers but his head is elsewhere and on that basis why or could AT trust him to do the job. I find him very frustrating and thats where my opinion...

    Freddy Eastwood Record

    From the club website .......since he has been here Games 121 Shots 195 goals 18 For an attacking player (because he has never played as a defensive one) that is not exceptional stats playing up front or wide. Oh and by the way per FA statistical analysis on average a goal is scored...

    Freddy Eastwood Record

    did he score only when he played up front you imply he did? Also when he played wide did he have opportunities to score in which case should have scored more? You cannot distort statistics to make it look like he scored 1 in every 2 games he didnt - a guy with a genuine eye for goal at this...

    Freddy Eastwood Record

    So it is a fact that he only scores when played up front and playing wide he never gets a chance to ? :facepalm:check the stats again

    With Fat Freddy Offski does this open money up for a loan or two?

    I think that a lot of people would hope so M&D (me included) but I think the reality is that given a smart lawyer Freddy could probably go for unfair dismissal or/and breach of contract himself. Given some of the decisions I have seen in this area then he probably has a good chance of winning ...
