I'd love to think that this comment was ironic, but sadly...... This is the guy who was our scout. This was the guy who found Westwood, Dann, Fox, Gunna etc. As Everton's scout he found Arteta. And he "doesn't have a clue what makes a good player". Give me strength.............

It's not unusual when a Director leaves a company for there to be a delay in the company's PR while the respective solicitors agree a mutually acceptable form of words (that always end up saying nothing), but in this case: 1. The company in question is a football club and so attracts a...

Maybe they haven't noticed he's gone yet............

I think you might be confusing "the rest of the world" with the american right........ ;);)

Yep - George was from a different era - and he was one of the toughest even then. It was rumoured that whenever a certain Irish forward (who may or may not have been called Derek Dougan) played against Coventry, he always contrived to spend the entire game on the left wing - or any other part...

I would agree with the posters above (well most of them anyway....) that Deegan was excellent when he came on. Aside from some very good passes he injected much more movement into our midfield. Our game should be "pass and move", but just recently we've lapsed into "pass and stand still" far...

Keogh did get caught out a couple of times but in the first half he was also our most effective attacker - some excellent runs!

I think Bell was at his best for us at the end of last season - playing in the diamond, but with MK making runs that allowed Bell to play him in. Juke has been excellent in the target man role, but doesn't make many of those runs and we're yet to see anyone play effectively alongside him this...

So as scout he found us Westwood, Dann, Fox, Gunna, Juke et al - and none of them for big fees. Sounds pretty good to me. As manager he took over a team with 1 win in 18 (I think) that was heading for relegation and kept them up - whilst playing much more attractive football. He then loses...

I agree. Even when expectations are low, you do need a bit of optimism to keep some level of interest going. At the moment that doesn't seem to be there - I think there's a feeling that if we started to do well it'd only be seen as a chance to sell the players who were performing...

Would you prefer them to go in disguise or perhaps wear the burqa (always assuming we play no friendlies in France of course), or do you have some objection to two long standing CCFC supporters watching their teams' matches?

Thanks - he should be somewhere mid-Atlantic at the moment but I'll send him an email for when he lands.

Many thanks - I'll pass the message on.

Hoping there might be an exiled Sky Blue from New York who reads the forum.... Number one son is off to New York in the morning and as he was brought up properly - his main concern is naturally to find somewhere he can watch the match tomorrow night (or afternoon in his case). He's going to be...

Saw Hutch's debut at home to Man City (also Colin Stein's home debut). I think my reasoned comment on the day was "Wow". Difficult to explain how good Hutch was to those who were too young to see him play. The game was very different then. The first challenge any full back made in a game was a...

The username is a clue - but could it be anyone other than the great Tommy Hutchison (always assuming you're old enough to remember him).

Shame that Mike England retired (long time ago.......)

Or perhaps he could resign as a director??????????????

I admire your optimism!!!

It seems clear that we have to sell to have the money to keep going (or to "allow SISU to continue to fund us" as it is sometimes called). It's also clear that we have a surplus of centre backs. My concern is that Ben looked a class act last season. I see some folk above described him as "a...
