    When CCFC was sold to SISU didn't we have 30 million pounds of debt?

    Now that is patronising! Hope you guys don't get too much vertigo looking down from that perch. Just because some of us don't agree with your reading of events doesn't entitle you to assume you are correct in such a mocking, condescending manner. No wonder people get accused of being board...

    how can we be favourites to win this game? we cant score!!! look at the odds

    Surely Derby have to be hot favourites? They've lost 1 and won 4 haven't they? 3rd plays 2nd bottom-should be no contest, on paper at least. Derby look like a different team this season-it's amazing what getting rid of Robbie Savage can do for a teams confidence! Unless it turns out that we've...

    more lies from sisu....

    It's hope. I can't get too excited either, simply due to the level he's been playing at, not to mention my crushed spirit, but I really bloody pray he's up to the job because nobody else is going to do it!

    more lies from sisu....

    Easy! I can vouch for OSB not being very happy when he got back from his hols to realise that our deadline day strengthening consisted of one proven player out, one unproven player in. That he later explained that SISU are going to sell players to pay for club running costs doesn't mean he's...

    Nope it was Leicester. I said "Sign him up!" but Ken reckons he was asking for 2 bags of nuts a week and we can only stretch to one. Thorn was keen as we lack width and pace, but there were concerns expressed that the new signing may have spent much of his time climbing Clive Platt :D

    I read that as "goal meerkats". Squirrel down the wing, meerkat in the middle maybe? :thinking about:

    Boro want Juke on loan

    If it's a loan with a view to perm in Jan then it will benefit SISU just as much as any other player sale.

    freddie fat bastard

    I hope it works as he should flourish in AT's style. Although he was knackered in no time, I actually thought he was our best chance of scoring against Watford when he came on as sub! I lost my patience with him for what I thought was the last time during an apalling sub appearance toward...

    more lies from sisu....

    Loan with a view to perm happens all the time. IMO such moves should be outlawed-what's the point of even having a transfer deadline if you can do this?

    more lies from sisu....

    The nice comments he made about Boro fans on Twitter indicate that something was going on. It seems entirely feasible to me that we had vaguely accepted a bid on the condition that Parkin was brought in. As for the idea that we sell high and then reinvest that money on better players...no...

    Divided fans.

    Which, to be fair, they aren't.

    The Academy

    Yep, L2 Team of the Year during their promotion season. His career was ended early by injury, sadly. I think he was player-coach somewhere in nonleague last year..Redditch, maybe?

    Turner or Cody

    I think the debt is partly the initial debts on purchase and partly the money that has been lost running the club. You are however right in that they certainly initially claimed the debt had been written off, and that money invested by SISU was NOT classed as a debt (in public) to be repaid...

    The Academy

    Fowler was a top prospect but his drinking problems made Kevin Thornton look like a paragon of virtue! He's been rated the best passer in nonleague over the past few seasons but even so can only ever get a short-term deal. Pipe had terrible discipline issues too, despite being Bristol Rovers...

    EXACTLY! Saved me from having to type it for the nth time :D

    Can I have an Update please

    OK, but straight back at 'ya! As for SISU-well those that say "they're venture capitalists, I never wanted them here" are probably correct. There is this notion that they are somehow "saviours" who picked us up off the scrapheap as some kind of mercy gesture-as opposed to being hard-nosed...

    Did SISU part with £400,000 for McDonald ?

    Well that's one way of looking at it I suppose! Another would be to say "eh, where's the other 350k gone?!" What did they "spend"(or invest if you're that way inclined) that on? Another new car for Ken, maybe? Or maybe it was a dividend paid out to "The Shareholder" that got mentioned the other...

    Ben Turner interview, "“Hopefully Coventry will keep what they have got now"

    Try comparing the difference in points-per-game of City with Turner in the team and not to Vidic/Ferdinand in the team or not. Both Vidic and Ferdinand miss a lot of games through injury, hence another reason for the comparison. Plus, of course, I rate Turner much higher than you do.

    Can I have an Update please

    Ranson claimed the owners overuled him, and refused to allow him to budget long term, just 1-3 months in advance. I simply don't believe the letter, and I do think having a fly-by-night tanned chairman is a problem, so we'll have to beg to differ.
