    My mate went today and he said the following:

    Think he got that about right M&D - would add to it that we appeared to lack clear leadership on and off the pitch

    Thoughts on Barnsley

    as an addition to the above ...... Clingan got better second half, Cameron got a couple of efforts at goal (was the steel save from him or platt i thought it was cameron) Deagan did ok and is good for him to get the whole match ran out of steam a bit(understandably) but for me did ok. Was...

    Thoughts on Barnsley

    Thoughts on Barnsley Match To be honest there isnt a lot that was positive I think that Thomas Cameron and Christie acquitted themselves well. Thomas ran miles especially in the first half closing down players and putting pressure on the ball (whilst more experienced players stood and...

    next fans forum.

    clearly any such event is only going to be an attempt at PR so that the Board can say they involved the fans on a regular basis. However judging by the last one there is precious little content just word gymnastics. Waste of time going in my opinion if reasonable concerns and questions are never...

    The £1.6m paid to Ranson had nothing to do with the value of the shares, I it was money left in the Group when he brought Prozone into it, it was a loan. The investors are the 4 private equity funds plus Brody as it stands. The loans came from the private equity funds not Brody - up till 31/05/10

    very true wingy. I dont have a problem with making money from those opportunities but I have an expectation that in doing so community and social responsibilities are taken seriously and accommodated/funded properly

    I think there is a balance to be made Nonleague. I agree that sport in general is and should be about more things than money, but it is the owners that put that social and cultural significance at risk by throwing the good business principles out of the window. But as an owner of a business I...

    SISU established an investment project then sought investors. Those investors signed up and paid their money on the basis of the terms and offer made by SISU. Part of those terms would be that their investment would be managed for them by SISU. SISU then appointed a Board of directors...

    I wasnt on about opening an account...................... If a fund manager buys quoted shares in Barclays as part of the portfolio he manages then Barclays dont know who invested in the fund. However the fund manager would have to comply with money laundering regs. The principle of not knowing...

    Formation Ideas

    Thought we ended last nights game more in a 4 4 2 than anything else. McSheffery was playing up along side Platt and Juke went left midfield with Thomas covering the right. The diamond works when the team is confident and moves the ball quickly but so far this season we have not seemed a...

    Think this could if followed through by Mr Collins have a very serious implication for CCFC what he also said was "When a club gets into financial difficulties it's the fans that suffer and it's also local businesses that are owed money by that football club that suffer. "If the Football...

    wouldnt have thought so wingy because the council have been pretty clear they wont sell to CCFC unless CCFC is viable (council can veto Higgs sale). SISU want and need CCFC successful its the only way they get their money back

    Harrison's coaching...

    just a caveat on that ............ managers manage the squad and coaching staff, end of the day it is the managers decision what team goes out and what formation we play. I would assume that AT and Harrison talk a lot but bottom line is AT is paid to make the decisions in matches and training
