    Meeting with new backroom staff

    Not getting my hopes up but that does sound pretty promising..............

    Leon Clarke

    The mans a bellend but there aren't to many strikers about at this level who will score as many as he potentially can, not for free anyway. If he's willing to talk we would be daft not to at least consider him.

    Cranie and Bailey released from Barnsley

    I'd have Cranie back like a shot. Didn't have an attacking element to his game but solid defensively, inspired confidence. If i remember rightly he could pretty much play anywhere across the back 4 too so useful versatility. Can't say as I really remember a great deal about Bailey

    Realistic good signings.

    Certainly think Giles Coke and Scott Loach would be decent signings. Suspect both will be chasing "more stable" clubs though........

    Talks with Mowbray to continue

    Perhaps this is just "we didn't get relegated!" optimism but I kinda sense that SISU went for Mowbray so that he could tell them what to do and might just give him some backing. I have believed for a long time that SISU were just using us as some kind of massive tax dodge and genuinely didn't...

    Mowbray, is he the right man ?

    That's the only way it makes sense to me. Spending a. It of cash now to make us look more of a saleable asset

    Mowbray, is he the right man ?

    Something must have changed because whether or not Mowbray does actually sign today this whole exercise has cost SISU money. If they genuinely didn't care if we stayed up or not they could have left Elvis in place or else sacked him to make a show of caring then appointing Hockaday. A manager...

    Mowbray, is he the right man ?

    A pointless discussion until he actually signs. We have been bitten by "verbal contracts" before. I'll be happy with TM as manager, if and when he signs

    Waggott the maggott on the manager situation

    Adkins I would have thought. O don't think we have enough money to tempt any of them

    Waggott the maggott on the manager situation

    The only real positives I can see in all this is that it does now look less likely that they are going to appoint Hockaday. I'm not convinced by the idea of Mowbray or Morrell but I'd sooner ha e either of them than Hockaday. Adkins, Rosler or Warburton would be great but I just can't see...

    So who do we want?

    Flitcroft is worth a mention. Struggled at Barnsley but done well at Bury with no cash to spend. Immaterial of course because its going to be Hockaday....

    So who do we want?

    Yeah, its more just because I like the guy. Wont, happen, he's too smart to work for SISU

    Where will Pressley turn up next

    I'd guess he will get a coaching job at a high-ish club in Scotland. Hearts maybe. I don't think he will fancy another managers job straight away

    So who do we want?

    I would like to see Dicky Dosh given a go at the job. Always felt we should have given it to him last time around.
  15. Manchester_sky_blue

    So who do we want?

    It'll be Hockaday and/or MacFarlane. Anyone else is just wishful thinking. Temp till end of the season and then because it's SISU, they will give him a 25 year contract and his own statue.

    Urquhart one of the academy 11?

    I presume Finch will be one of the 22 for next season.

    Higgs vs CCFC Court Row

    I suspect as SISU had broken the terms of their tenancy by withholding rent that there was no legal compunction for CCC to inform them of the change of direction, however, how much of this mess could have been avoided if they had?

    Why don't Coventry City pay their bills?

    Please do not feed the troll..........

    Does Sisu need to attract new investors to build a stadium?

    I agree there is no logic to it, totally agree with that but there is also no logic in being there temporarily either. If we agree that they wont build a new stadium and we see no realistic option for a Ricoh return, what option does that leave? Staying in Northampton? Ground sharing somewhere...

    Does Sisu need to attract new investors to build a stadium?

    Thats what i said when the notion of leaving the Ricoh was first mooted. Not a chance I said. Then look what happened...... With each passing day i am more and more convinced that the plan is to stay in Northampton and become franchise FC
