I guess to help the debate we perhaps should list those signed. 1. Sheaf 5/10 not taken us forward. 2. Osti 8.5/10 Best signing for me 3. James 7/10 Done his job as Sheaf hasn't. 4. Walker 6.5/10 Been stop start season should improve. 5. Hamer 7/10 Had some reactionary fans drooling. Over...

I don't want robin's out at all and feel he has another evolution in him at ccfc. If we want top 6 perhaps we will need a manager who is more of a front foot tactician as opposed to the largely reactive Robins. After the Covid issues etc Robins deserves a full summer to sign players and shape a...

Marosi 4 - should have saved at least one of the goals. We urgently need a new no 1 Eccles 6 - impressed and has a great cross on him. Pask 5 - poor for first goal. Should be 5th choice CB. McFadzean 6 - did ok but lacks pace against teams with good movement. Ostigard 6 - Playing in a week...

You could be right, if we stay up. Not sure he would have been much less impactful than the front two today. Regardless however if you concede 4 were just not going to win games, no matter who we have up front.

8 Frostie splurging is relative to income and bank balance. It's entirely possible that 100k spent by us equates to 10million or more to another club. You have again asserted that I don't know what goes on behind the scenes? Do you? By phrasing it as you have, your suggesting your privy to...

Frostie, with respect you do get a bit carried away with yourself and have drawn some slightly strange and incoherent parallels. I used the Ben Godfrey transfer simply as an example of how a player can be plucked from relative football obscurity (York city) and can subsequently net a club 20...

As a % of outlay there are quite a few. It only takes a Ben Godfrey at Norwich signed from York for very little, sold for 25m. That was clearly the hope for the likes of Thompson, Drysdale, Morgan Williams etc but they have all struggled and are finding they best fit in teams well short of...

I had a long debate on here where I was told the opposite and the moneyball approach was not City's and we had a great scouting infrastructure. I would tend to agree with you and a family.friend who is the agent for a few Newcastle players that its mostly done on stats and videos unless the...

Badlan has a very good record at identifying players who won't make an impact at first team level. If his MO is as described above, he has assembled a decent, if not slightly expensive U23 squad. His words about Kastaneer ought to be in a capability report of some kind, they are so misaligned...

Thanks for the video link, it shows a technical passing ability that outside of de bryne is not in the premier league right now, and hasn't been for a while.

Largely down to Robins formation and his fitness, Godden was truely abject against QPR and it was noticeable how nothing was working in the final 3rd and we were just inviting wave after wave of attack. Today thankfully was in total contrast and he produced first touches that others in the squad...

He was decent offensivily, I am not sure if that has been in debate? Always good to know the quest pundits agree with the people on this forum who watched the full 94 mins today.

I am not saying he had a poor game, offensively. I just feel out of possession he invites pressure onto the midfield as he does not pressurise the opposition enough. I think that should come with fitness. Had he been more mobile out of possession I would have said a 7.5 + Against better teams we...

On reflection i would revise it up to 6.5? I don't really wish to debate negatives on a really posative day for the club. His defending from the front is where he lost a point from my overall rating. Definatily deserves to keep his place and hopefully build on his partnership play with Godden.

Marosi 7 - looked much better and needs to keep the shirt for this season. Eccles 7 - did far better than expected and looked like he should keep hold of the shirt. McCallum 7 - soild game. Ostigard 7 - scored at last and unlucky not to connect better with another header. Will only improve...

Agree, but I think it also shows how far Kasta is off the pace.

If I could sack Southgate and Steven Gerrard took over we would have a better chance of winning the Euros. Southgate is in essence a failed club manager and average TV pundit.

Sorry are you saying any image is distasteful? As I said before not seen 'it'. Details, matter.
