Forget your formations - football is supposedly a simple game innit - so why can't we adopt the following very complex aspects of the game: Keeper to stop SPILLING the ball to opposition strikers Defenders to concentrate for FULL 90 minutes + Defenders to contribute goals from SET PIECES...

Maybe Micky Doyle is the answer !!! PUSB

HOENESS scored in 63rd minute PUSB

Yes Snoz, Brian was one of these players with few histrionics - loved playing football and was exceedingly good at it particularly when applying himself as a limpet to opposing forwards. He played 278 games scoring 8 goals in all four divisions for CCFC and then went on to play for Bristol...

Yes, painfully obvious every week - wrong tactics, wrong selection = wrong end of the table. PUSB

"Hill" was in fact BRIAN HILL - only played 5 league games that season - renowned for his man marking ability - end of his career by then. PUSB

That particular injury followed on from another injury suffered whilst on holiday in LLoret De Mar in June of that year to the same ankle - I'd just about finished physio on that one when I did the Bayern Munich swan(lane) dive. As mentioned I have a legacy of injuries and mishaps over the...

Nice one Cloughy - no lager for you tonight !!! PUSB

It was 1970 and believe it or not CCFC were actually in a European competition - it was called the EUROPEAN FAIRS CUP at the time (probably equivalent to the current Europa League Cup as of today) To qualify our beloved club finished 6th (yes 6th from the top) of the then First Division under...

I believe it was about £7M

Rather than take a wild guess I have looked at each fixture and forecasted the result and score and I believe it would look something like this based on current form and expectations: Remaining Games: P 24 - W 3 - D 9 - L 12 - GF 20 - GA 35 - Pts 18 (Wins against Bristol City H, Barnsley H...

Yes but that was the Premier League equivalent surely a much bigger achievement to survive than our current league. And BG finished with a win ratio of 31% not the current season to date of a pathetic 9% - just about the worse ANYWHERE. How much lower in results performance do we have to...

My thread was just an observation as to AT's stubbornness to utilise his existing squad to their varying abilities and skills and having the nous to make changes when needed. Poor team selection, poor tactics, playing players out of position have all contributed to our demise of just 2 wins all...

Hussey is getting better each game and will become a prize assett very shortly. He has a sweet left foot can play the flank, puts decent crosses in when/if he gets possession and is a menace to opposition defenders. PUSB

What is worrying about the SBT estimates of between 3000 and 7000 potential gates for the 3rd Division for CCFC is the fact that when clubs like Norwich, Leeds, Fester, Southampton etc went down gates soared to 20,000 plus in that league and were maintained at that level when promoted. Why...

We all know things are dire off the park at the minute but equally CCFC are currently on the crest of a massive slump breaking records as each week passes for lowest wins, lowest points, lowest goals etc. - and we all appear to accept the inevitable of looking forward next season to: a long...

Knowledge, Pet subject of mine: Centre Mids do not score (any goals) Centre Mids do not create/attack defences (pitter patter sideways/backwards) Strikers wandering up and down flanks (not around pen area) Attacks too slow and cumbersome (if at all) No speculative shots (except against...

I must say after reading ALL the SISU OUT threads and posts and the excellent response to the Thursday meeting the increasing groundswell of support is massively impressive. After all my years supporting CCFC (47 years as a ST holder) I am genuinely moved by the passion currently prevailing...
