If you believed the statement of doing a deal. Given the numerous different options mooted it seemed clear to me they had no real clue what a deal would be or even if they could get it. It was all guesswork. We could still trade with them without being in the EU - it'd just be on off-the-shelf...

Exaclty. All the other stuff is not necessarily part of leaving the EU - it's an ancillary and separate process. We were told we'd do a deal like Norway, not that we would do Norway. We were also told stuff about being like Switzerland and Canada as well as many other. Nothing concrete, just...

Yes they left because the manager wanted them out, but they were unhappy at not playing while they were still here. Doyle could've refused to leave and run his contract out as could JCH. Ogogo had a nice long-term contract to sit on and was being paid - he could've also chosen not to leave. They...

But a squad of 25 would be a small squad, even if they were all experienced pro's. But you'd go for that despite complaining a squad of 40 is too small. Players aren't disgruntled if they're paid - Junior Brown, Abu Ogogo, JCH, Andreu, Doyle, Davies, O'Brien - all players from the last 12...

Good thing about migrants statues is they don't have any freedom of movement at all! Or are you talking about those annoying people that spray themselves silver and stand still? In which case yes, they should be registered and monitored 24/7. And tasered if they move an inch.

Yes, because no-one had actually fleshed any of these options out as to what they actually entailed or if they were even possible. This was going on within the camp wanting to leave, let all those that didn't or the EU. So it all meant nothing. The only statement we had was "leave the EU", so I...

Are we paying them to be professional footballers for CCFC? Yes, so they're part of the squad. Just because they're young and inexperienced doesn't mean they don't count. Bolton had to play us with much younger and less experienced players and got a draw. Or do you think we should completely...

So what to you is a large squad? I'd say 37 plus a kid not yet on pro terms and with another three out on loan is not small.

Even when it was just us playing there post winter it wasn't a great surface, but better than since the rugby was also played on it. It's definitely not had the upkeep it used to (although it used to frustrate me that even on freezing winter days the sprinklers would be on before the game, at...

It's not a small squad. You can argue about the quality of some of the younger players but they're still part of the squad and right now we've got 37 players being paid to be professional footballers for us with another 3 out on loan. For the likes of Man City or Liverpool that might be a small...

In this formation it'd a bit difficult, as one would have to play midfield but being a left-sided central midfielder requires a different style of play. A team playing 4-4-2 it's a lot easier as you just push them into the LM slot. I used to say that away from home we should look to play two...

Fracking: UK shale gas reserves 'significantly lower than previous estimates' - Energy Live News What a surprise! Even with a 50 year supply it seemed like a poor amount but to now be under 10 (and likely much less as consumption is likely to increase) the entire thing is a massive waste of...

Personally I always saw the referendum as being for no deal. That's what leaving is so you'd have to work from the assumption there'd be nothing. All the talk about this deal or that deal were in there to convince the less rabid Brexiteers who maybe had certain aspects of the EU they wanted to...

Good point. I think if they lost both teams it'd make it easier because then you could take the teams Bury and Bolton should've been playing (Fleetwood and Oxford apparently) and postpone one of their fixtures and re-arrange it for the final day. Final day Oxford should be at home, Fleetwood...

That won't last forever though, but it's good to have for the time being.

Cattlin is a good analyst. Bennett is entertaining (though not as much as he himself thinks he is) but offers very little in terms of professional knowledge, tactics. It's pretty much "get the ball wide and get the ball in the box" - who'd have thought a winger would say that! A lot of the time...

But he is the most energetic of the trio in getting forward and back so it's hardly surprising he tires the most. He also seems to be the biggest goal threat IMO (possibly more so than Bayliss because he's not afraid to have a pop when around the area). I think of all of them Westbrooke needs to...

The trade off is will you end up scoring more than the mistakes will lead you to conceding? It's obvious when you can attribute a conceded goal to playing it at the back. but it's impossible to attribute goals to it. You can play the ball backwards and forwards, sideways for ages before the...

I share that fear BUT he may be more reluctant this time after he it went horrible wrong last time. He seems to 'fit' here and things seem to work out for him. Even when we got major injuries to 'key' players with JJ and Andreu it led to us finding that Max/McNulty formula which we might not...

The big draw for SISU wasn't the football stadium itself - with taking on the maintenance costs etc it wouldn't have been much if any more profitable that renting and keeping the gate money. The big draw was all the extras that came with it in the exhibition hall, potential for concerts, hotel...
