    It’s getting to the point…

    I just sense a bloody good opportunity! Two sides hit 100 points last season Leicester/Ipswich/Leeds/Shampton were by far and away head and shoulders above anyone the season before that 2022/23 granted could have been different had it not been for our disrupted start to the season The year...

    It’s getting to the point…

    I don’t ’expect’ anything - But we cannot keep living off the fact that we have come from the doldrums, that was an old-CCFC under an old regime still scarred from years of turmoil The 2023 side was in all honesty, a side of limited players who were performing admirably above their ceiling...

    It’s getting to the point…

    We might well lose tomorrow, it’s a tough game and of course over the course of the season we are going to lose matches But even if we do it doesn’t change what I think I just think seasons like this at this level where the relegated sides look very ordinary compared to years gone by, clubs...

    It’s getting to the point…

    Play-Offs should be the minimum expectation with what we have at our disposal in all honesty and I’d go as far as saying if we fell short of the Top 6 it would be a huge failure to be honest This is not the old Coventry City - We are not the plucky little underdog we were a couple of seasons...

    It’s getting to the point…

    You could say that about any side in world football when they have injuries to key players We had no Mason-Clark and no Rudoni on Saturday and we’d have still been a match for anyone the way we played - Yes we were playing against 10 men, but we were still the miles better side beforehand

    It’s getting to the point…

    Where I would be absolutely gutted if we didn’t make a sustained and serious assault on the autos… this league on what we have seen so far is there for the taking, some underperforming big sides and some absolute dross Genuinely believe on our day we are the best team in the division

    Championship thread 25/26!

    As funny as it would have been to see The Blouse get turned over by a mob of players who ain’t even getting paid it’s not the worst thing in the world they salvaged a draw last minute - We don’t want Wednesday too confident for the weekend

    The ENGLISH Invincibles(when not cheated by the ref)

    Arsenal going undefeated had an aura about it that won’t ever be matched unless a team repeats the feat But I certainly think those Liverpool and City sides were better For the record - I think Josè’s first Chelsea side in 04/05 that lost just 1 game conceding 15 goals is the best side in...

    The ENGLISH Invincibles(when not cheated by the ref)

    And I don't think it ever will be done either No one managed to match Arsenal's feat in 04... Yet alone with an extra 8 games on top

    The ENGLISH Invincibles(when not cheated by the ref)

    No it's never been done in a 46 game season Reading hold the record I believe only lost twice in 05/06 Then Birmingham only lost three last season

    My toes are still defrosting from that night Low point of that season for me was playing Colchester away on a Tuesday night, SBA coach got stuck on the M25 and we were nowhere near the ground 5 mins before kick off - Pulled off the motorway and watched it in a pub in Potters Bar crowded round...

    Sheffield Wednesday "on the pitch"

    It is a farce to be honest - Been highly critical of them since the Palmer incident, sometimes justifiably so but what is happening isn't right and I take no joy or satisfaction in seeing the office ladies, people in the club shop etc. not being paid on time and I would say that about any...

    It would have still been a battle to stay up still I imagine, it also would have kicked off in Birmingham again… Unless the club actively didn’t seek a deal at The Ricoh/CBS knowing fans were not going to be back in any time soon

    A lot of variables in this obviously as it was result dependent - But I am pretty sure had Covid not happened and we kept getting results the game that was earmarked as possible promotion weekend was Blackpool away:cry:

    Infact I have just unlocked a bit of a memory - I actually bumped into Steve Cotterill once, outside a ground where we were playing, he wasn’t the opposition manager I think he was either there doing some scouting or some media I was only young at the time and as you do when you are young...
