From a business perspective SISU can't afford to let us drift in the mire of league 1 for too long. They need to get us out at the first opportunity and if they don't see that they are even more football ignorant than I thought. I don't know whether the team is good enough to make a challenge...

what about 4-1-1-1-1-1-1 that would confuse the opposition?

GB women only play other women. They would be stuffed by CCFC. But they are pretty good players with no little skill.

apart from the players he is bringing in presumably...

Looks like Thorny is taking a punt on him coming good. He has had to talk SISU in to actually parting with some cash so he must fancy the odds. Lets see how he goes before making a rash judgement.

nor did we and we watched every game. IMO major contribution to our downfall. maybe not his fault as he wasn't Robbie Keane but to then bad mouth us afterwards is really poor and I can't forgive him.

The formation is irrelevant. Unless you have players who defend with discipline, move the ball in possession quickly and accurately and have a few with a decent shot on them you will have a team that struggles. We only had the first of these last season. Hopefully the new recruits will change...

...and so started the search for the player capable of a sixty yard pass.

You seem to have answered my question perfectly. I understand your thinking. Lets hope our stay in Div 1 is a short one.

really? Do you mean in terms of the opposition we are likely to meet? or that we would have been better off trying to avoid relegation with the current squad?

Clarrie Bourton wouldn't get anywhere near as many goals in today's game. You were allowed to shoulder charge the goalkeeper in those days. George Hudson was replaced by Bobby Gould who got us into the first division with his goals. He was poached by Arsenal. How many Cov players can we say...

The unfortunate result of 'moving on' is that we are in a worse position than we started at. But that, I am told, is progress.

I think that was the very point he was making - only more succinctly.

awful lot of moving forward there - not a politician are you???? I suspect you mean 1. actively exist. 2. progress.

He wasn't even a first team starter for us for most of last season!!! Not sure what Newcastle see in him but he is young however. I think he is unlikely to make it at premiership level because of the pace of the game. He needs to beef up a bit and work his way up through the leagues. probably...

I wouldn't count on us getting £1m. That is media talk - they have absolutely no idea what the fee is.

I think he would be a good signing for the right price. We might have been a big club - but we ain't now. We are one of the poorest. A player like KK would have to take a massive drop in wages. If he does that fair play to him.

Agree entirely.

I'm with Real on this one - I recognise every one of his observations about RS. But that has nothing to do with whether he will be a good coach or not. Clearly we won't be increasing the coaching staff so presumably at least one will be going. I imagine the main reason he is here is because he...
