    CCFC in Private Eye again

    This isn't published in Private Eye (at least yet) but is a letter that has been sent to Private Eye by a City fan. In sum the 'City Slicker' features in the Eye have been highly critical of SISU, the 'Rotten Boroughs' features have been critical of the Council.

    The badge

    Didn't Paul Fletcher put them up at the crack of midnight because ACL initially refused to have our badge on their ground?

    Whete is the national coverage?

    Maybe the point is that the Scousers and Mancs you're thinking of are in the Premier League Tranmere and Stockport had little coverage when they fell into trouble in the league we are now in.

    Baker off to Southport

    He used to play for STOCKport. Can anyone actually confirm that he's updated his status to read what TakeMeHome said? I cdn't spot it

    Favourite City Court Cases

    Terry Butcher winning his case for wrongful dismissal against us, claiming he was worth two salaries as both player and manager, despite the fact that he had only played in about 4 games in a year.

    Funny What You Forget About, Isn't It?

    remember "Destination Europe" under Don Howe? Within days he'd left and Booby G was promoted from asst to manager.

    Byng bong

    Do we actually have any verification for this? The last time people got all excited about Byng meeting Fisher the photo on Twitter turned out to be of John Clarke.

    Prutton Staying?

    Well he's looking for a contract so he's hardly likely to tell some randomer in the Club shop that he hates it here is he? His contract has ended at Wednesday. That's all we knew before and it's all we know now. If he's training with the main squad when they report back after the World Cup...

    Prutton Staying?

    That means he's left ShefWendy which we knew anyway. Doesn't necessarily mean he's been offered or accepted anything here.

    todays game and thoughts

    They were the favourites for promotion before a ball was kicked. They had a dreadful start, sacked the manager and improved. If our season was good until January, theirs was exceptional afterwards. Beat two (or was it three) prem clubs on the way to an FA Cup semi final vs hull that they...

    todays game and thoughts

    Teams like Sheffield United? Your argument makes no sense. Sheffield is the 4th largest City in England! Sheffield Utd have played in 4 FA Cup semi finals since we last played at Wembley, have been in the Premier league since we were relegated from it, and have a higher average attendance...

    Nice to know Pressley will celebrate!

    I agree with the sentiment here but we won more points at Northampton this season than that at the Ricoh the season before.

    Big Eck clapped wolves banner

    Yep that would be racist, but that word hasn't been used has it? Imagining that word has been used when it hasn't is also a bit worrying no? US tried to use a Pakistan pun but has been told that the Punjab isn't in Pakistan. As a GMKer I'm embarrassed by the shit quality of that thread but...

    Only 400 to Oldham..

    I'm not sure that it actually means they are for sale there, I'm paranoid it means just that tickets bought and not collected from ccfc can be collected there. "Tickets for the Sky Blues' away clash with the Latics will be on the gate at Boundary Park... Tickets for Coventry City's Easter...

    Only 400 to Oldham..

    Didn't realise it was all ticket but they wouldn't mail out tickets on Tuesday when I tried to buy one because they thought the Easter mail would be unreliable. Decided to buy on the day as I'm out of the country until Sunday and don't live in Cov. No find I can't do that. Ah well
