    Jamie Johnson New Head of Scouting

    Good move - we are starting to look like a resourced club. They're even reporting using analytical data. Welcome to the 21st century CCFC.

    Home v Sunderland 12.30, Sky, £33 a ticket

    Can we nominate this game for the Jimmy Hill charity fund and state that 10 per cent of every ticket price goes to this charity? Just asking for a friend. ;)

    Gyokeres

    You are probably right, but the current white knight has lost a massive amount of money and that could temper the scope for new investment

    G you are spot on identifying the rising costs of the new ground, allied to the issues Everton have to manage in trying to comply with FFP. Most construction projects are running into significant increases in materials above the projected contingency rates. If the are relegated, then it will be...

    Reid to Stevenage ?

    It looks a good move for him to [hopefully] get out and play.

    Is that because we can't afford to put the heating on? ;)

    Can someone check at Ryton this morning to see if Vik is training?

    Gyokeres

    Totally agree. Vik is central to the way we play and if he was to be sold now, we would not be able to secure a "like for like" replacement. This would mean a change in our tactical approach to games, which would have a negative impact as we adapt. It's worth waiting until the summer [having...

    Everton desperately need an upfront cash payment due to their FFP situation. I would guess that they would only have 30-50% of that fee available now.

    Doug King Takeover

    It was really positive to hear that any future loans will be interest free and the club is currently free of debt, which provides MR with stability. However, King is very careful with his words as you would expect from a smart businessman. What he didn’t refer to was potential dividend payments...

    Not necessarily. Last week when playing in midfield he failed to track back on a number of occasions leaving Dabo (who was struggling) with two players to cover

    If Cuffey plays tomorrow I hope he's been learning that he has to defend at times!

    Ben Wilson

    Unfortunately, I credited Wilson with improved shot stopping earlier today. However, the second goal showed poor technique as he dived over the ball. Schoolboy error!

    Ben Wilson

    Wilson shot stopping has improved this season, but he doesn't command his penalty area and is poor on crosses. I'm struggling to think of any crosses outside his 6 yard box that he's claimed this season. As a number 2 he's okay, but we definitely need a better keeper on crosses if only to take...

    Sheff Utd - Umbongo'd

    I wonder who they owe money too? It's reported for a player bought last year and they've failed to pay an instalment on that transfer.

    Doug King Takeover

    Exactly, both Doug & MR in all their comms are managing expectation levels. MR has continued with the messaging of "incremental improvements". They obviously want us, as the fan base, to not get too excited and expect big changes in the short term.

    Doug King Takeover

    I hoping that in the short term MR doesn’t have to endure stupid “fire sales” like Hyam and has some financial stability within the club. For once in his life here MR might be able to fully concentrate on developing the playing side of the club. As for Fisher - glad see him resign. He had to be...

    If he went to Derby we would still pay a proportion of his wages.

    CCFC wages v other Championship clubs 20-21

    I’ve read the thread, but I think some are not taking into account the context of these figures. Obviously our current wage level will be higher than 2021, but I would expect it will not be at a level in the top half of the Championship. The impact of this means MR has less choice in the...
