    Is Burge Good Enough ?

    But we don't have an unlimited budget so there's a good chance that if we wanted to bring in a keeper fitting that description it would be at the expense of bringing in another player such as a winger or forward.

    Is Burge Good Enough ?

    He's good enough but I would think there are certainly better keepers who we could get at L1 level. Seems with our budget TM has decided the money is better spend elsewhere. Hopefully being number 1 and playing behind some experienced defenders will raise his game. If not we might have to look...

    RIP Jayden Pearsons

    What sad news. Must be terrible for the family when it comes with no warning. Well done to the club for getting onboard with this. Hopefully word reaches the Crewe fans as well.

    Attendance Vs. Wigan

    This is where the deal at the Ricoh is really shown up as a problem. Bradford wouldn't need to get the whole £100 back through extra ticket sales as they get other revenue streams - the more people in the ground the more they make. We aren't in the same situation, we would have to sell enough...

    Match Package Tickets

    Would make sense for them to give you a ticket as if you were paying cash. I assume they do this for people who pay on the gate otherwise it would be chaos, well more chaos than usual.

    Rochdale (Away) Match Thread

    Think its the FA Cup games that aren't blocked on CWR as they aren't part of the Football League rights deal.

    Coventry bookies favourite to be City of Culture 2021

    Would be great to get this. Does it mean new venues opening? Past the obvious few I can't think of two many places for culture in the city at the moment.

    Pub for Millwall

    Same for me. When did this Leicester thing start?

    Pay on the gate?

    How much are you expecting it to be? It's £13 to get into Nuneaton!

    Co-op Santa's Sleigh Ride Saved?

    Hope the co-op building is put to good use. Pleased to see the transport museum step in to save the ride.

    Surely Time to Bury the Hatchet

    I'd take top half this year and then promotion next year. After that it will be a case of trying to hang on and I do wonder if that could cause long term damage. If we're being run as self sufficient how many seasons of hanging on in the championship would it be before there were a lot of...

    Rochdale (Away) Match Thread

    Pretty good going for a Tuesday night in the cup when half the team is likely to be kids (and not the first choice kids!).

    Sky on demand

    Check the network cable between the router and the Sky box you're having trouble with. For some reason if Sky boxes lose their internet connection they really struggle to automatically reconnect and need a restart.

    Surely Time to Bury the Hatchet

    What is more likely to bring a bright future? Attendances under 10K with fans refusing to go to games or attendances of 15 - 20K? Whatever way you look at it staying away harms no one but the club. It doesn't impact on SISU in the slightest, they aren't putting money in so lower income just...

    Surely Time to Bury the Hatchet

    Depends what you mean by a bright future. At present we have a good manager, one of the largest playing budgets in the division, a decent shop with a good range of merchandise, low ticket prices and judging by yesterday might have some exciting football to watch. Not sure what more could...

    Rochdale (Away) Match Thread

    Would make sense to rest Johnson, TM has said he needs to be managed in a way that maximises his effectiveness so I would be surprised to see him playing. Armstrong can't play as Newcastle don't want him cup tied so I would guess Tudgay will come in.

    Surely Time to Bury the Hatchet

    Totally agree with the opening post. There's little we can do about SISU or the way they operate so lets just get behind TM and the team. Of course there's still concerns, particularly the ground situation as it has been shown that if and when we do have some success and get to the championship...

    Channel 5 = Football League Tonight show

    What a shambles. Everyone needs to stop trying to hard with sports broadcasts. We just want to see the actual games, preferably in some sort of order, player & manager interviews and bit of expert analysis (from someone who has a clue) and that's it. Stop all the pissing about. How difficult can...

    Wigan Athletic (Home) Match Thread

    According to wiki he played youth and reserve for Bolton, went to Crewe on loan. Got released by Bolton, had a trial at Walsall and didn't get signed. Then 5 years at Forrest Green.

    Great start to the season. Don't know what everyone was worried about!
