    CCFC Accounts, £1.9M Loss

    I skimmed them and thought; 'Oh, they're not too bad', but then just put that down to my lack of accounting knowledge!

    This team screams automatic promotion to me

    Yer, I was the same. Whether it was the emotion of JH/legend's day I don't know, but for the first time in ages I thought; that's a team that represents my club.

    Questions For Tony

    Tl;dr, but I'm sure your bloke in the pub opinion is more valued than that of millions of pounds of statistical analysis.

    Questions For Tony

    One of the most interesting things about The Numbers Game book is how to measure the 'unseen' things that players do. The runs off the ball to drag defenders out of position, the positioning to prevent a potential pass. We don't really appreciate these as fans. Kent and Murphy undoubtedly...

    Questions For Tony

    Yup me too. I doubt many others clubs at the 3rd (hopefully 2nd...) tier will be doing this, so we could have a big advantage.

    Questions For Tony

    I'm intrigued by this too. Irrespective of which division we end up in next season, player recruitment is going to be key. I'm reading Anderson's book; The Numbers Game at the moment and it is very interesting. Scouts are basing their initial research on stats to narrow down potential players...

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    ...and just to complete this thread; Suarez missed his 'conventionally' taken pen v Sporting Gijon this evening. Good save by the keeper down to his right. Though he did move a bit early, the disrespectful b@$t/\rd...

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    My point is that they're all against the rules, but this isn't. This is like a clever free-kick routine. Really don't get the annoyance.

    Messi/Suarez penalty

    In a sport rife with diving, appealing for thrown-ins/corners when you know you've kicked it out, timewasting etc, I'm flabbergasted (just wanted to write that really...) that anyone is saying this is 'unsporting'! Just like the panenka, it's simply a different (legit) way of scoring a penalty.

    Bury match thread

    Whenever I miss a game I always read through the entire match thread, it's always quality. The range of matching emotions that other posters experience is strangely reassuring! I arrive home today at about 16:45 with my boy at the front door in his Cov kit shouting IT'S SIX NIL down the...
