    Saturday's game - biggest ever.

    Form will not improve till Rose and Stokes return, in 6 weeks or so. Just hope McCann is not still injured.

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    I believe the average Div 3 salary is still around 70K, so with a bit for signing on fees etc I think my estimate isn't unrealistic. Though there would still be an U23 team to run in the budget...

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    7 strong squad players and a more extensive scouting network with approximately equal transfer income and an enhanced league position and therefore bigger crowds and ticket income. I think that is the case too but I do not see it as a disaster.

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    But similar benefits would accrue if sold players with potential were bought and sold on the open market (e.g. Jones) rather than developed internally, you have not understood the way the transfer market works for some reason you are assuming that an academy is greatly superior to any...

    Mowbray and the Acadamy

    You have no proof of that. OSB's figures show about £3.7M received in transfer fees from 2013-14 to 2016, the corresponding investment was about £4M over the same period. I would contend it is approximately break even and actually a bit risky as the cashflow from academy product is uneven, if...

    Future of this Football club.

    I don't doubt they'd want SISU out, I certainly want them gone. As for a thriving CCFC, that is another matter.

    You stick with SISU and see the club destroyed then. Your choice.

    Tims latest missif

    @oldskyblue58 & @duffer My gut feeling was always that SISU want to close the academy to reduce overheads/cashflow/risk and they they are moving to bringing in scouted players from various sources. e.g.non-league, ex-premier academy and other local academies like SFF etc. As OSB implies out the...

    The usual openness & standard of integrity from SISU applies.

    Squad compared to 12 months ago

    Glass half full: 7 goals conceded in 6 games. Only one of the teams in the play offs have conceded less. Glass half empty: 2 goals scored in 6 games, half the number of the next lowest scorers.

    FOOTBALL LEAGUE SHOULD STEP IN

    I agree, the issue needs forcing, either SISU build their stadium or fuck off.

    Frances interior minister said but where will the migrants go.. will they simply return to the area and build a new shanty town. Its a big problem, thanks to shegen.

    Low water mark

    It is a downward spiral, lower budget, smaller crowds, reduced budget, less success... etc. The owners are not in this business for football, sport is an inconvienience to them.

    FOOTBALL LEAGUE SHOULD STEP IN

    How come you don't understand that this is driven by the failure of the team, it isn't some sort of organised plot, its a collective (if slightly inarticulate) cry of anguish from the fans in general.
