    D Day Today

    It's leaders we have lacked all season. Robins is well aware of that. The new Head of Recruitment is a non-League guy. I expect a group of hungry 'men' to come in who will put their bodies on the line and expect their team mates to do the same Did anyone see JJ taken out with the ball at the...

    Another football experts take on CCFC

    If Mark Robins is given the tools and enough freedom to operate I have faith in him to make a success of next season That's providing there is no interference from above (which I understand is what caused Tony Mowbray to walk) and he can have at least some of the proceeds from any player sales...

    llameres accident

    Our problem under Mowbray was too many talented but very young, inexperienced and physically underdeveloped players in the team at the same time Then Slade went completely the other way by dropping almost all of them in in favour of hard working but less talented and less creative older...

    How is the club worth more

    Very clear explanation. Thanks I suspect that the owners may have realised that it may now be the least worst time to cut their losses But if that's the case then there are other parties who would surely offer a better deal than the current consortium And without all the strings

    Leyton Orient

    Actually Barry Hearn still owns the ground. He separated it from the club during his tenure and partially redeveloped it with flats on the corners and a health centre. He gave the club a 20 year lease. The fans think the real reason the club has imploded is because the owner is vindictively...

    Open letter from the club to fans

    Actually this is a significant development They have to justify refusing the bids we now know they have received recently And they have to convince Mark Robins to stay on to lead the planned recovery As often happens with a failing organisation no one has taken the responsibility to put their...

    Rumour: Hoffman and Elliot takeover negotiations

    SISU remind me of a business I knew who bought in huge amounts of a product to sell which then went out of fashion and became obsolete so was worth only a fraction of what they paid for it They wouldn't countenance selling the stock at a loss so racked up huge storage costs over years because...

    Regrets - RS

    He said shortly before he was sacked that he hadn't been given the tools for the job I wonder if his severance terms prohibited him for elaborating on this once he'd gone. He just talked about how he should 'have done his homework' To be honest I thought he'd do a good job but things...

    Tim Fisher

    There will be some incentive for TF or he wouldn't have any reason for staying. Every atom of his demeanour screams that he wouldn't do anything for altruistic reasons It may be that he has a hidden agenda to find a buyer where he will earn a percentage of the sale price Might explain Simon...

    Ogrizovic retiring end of season

    I believe Sam Ricketts may also have left the club. Did anyone notice Friday's program had Jordon Willis writing the skipper's page instead of Sam? He was off doing coaching badges but doesn't appear to have returned to the club A shame as he was helping some of our young players with extra...

    tough in league 2.....

    I've watched a lot of League 2 football in the last few years. You spend most of the time looking up in the sky watching the ball which has been punted forward to a big man up top or booted away by the defending side Ironically though it's usually the best quality teams that get promoted but...

    Thank God for Robins

    Actually there is a very recent example that gives me a bit of hope Dagenham and Redbridge were in a similar state last year and finished tailed off at the bottom of League 2.They brought back a former manager late in the season and although it was too late to avoid relegation he cleared out the...

    Players contracts

    He played well at Wembley. Wouldn't be surprised if he heads to a southern European league. He's a Londoner but his family are originally from Portugal so he might be up for it

    Yes I'd expect he'll go but maybe a bit further north

    Four EFL clubs 'at risk of failure' according to study, is one CCFC?

    I reckon these are likely candidates along with Rochdale and Orient The Sky Blues actually do pay their bills. Our problem is more to do with incompetence at the board level and the parent company making enemies
