I'm really not too sure but believe it started during the Jimmy Hill takeover days. As we flew through the leagues the momentum we gained under our Jim was a successful one and often we would thump a team scoring 5 goals. We did it enough to earn the phrase "the old five". Reality suggest it was...

No. The league must remain the target. Top 6 is very doable for MR's and that's where the end of the rainbow is...not in the JPT however romantic.

CCFC is incurring loses but SISU agreed to continue to fund the football club. Did they ask their ivestors permission?

That gap often looks 'static' for a number of games as we play catch up. However a look at the league and you will see how much closer the gap is getting as our form out strips others above us. Swindon for example, Bournemouth who some claim were on a storm up the league. Another few good...

You pay the rent then :)

Like I said...the 'old five'. Play offs anyone? What say you O?

I still think McGoldrick may be wanted back by Forest and be offered a new deal by them. Can't see Forest have much to lose by doing so. Its a horrible conundrum. If he keeps scoring at this rate his price will rise as others will want him. Though his contract is due to expire keeping his...

Yep agree but why do we start so slowly? Other teams would capitalise on that and coming back against them would be more difficult. ....but then that's football. Expect us to win handsomely now as the game has changed. Likely to have the 'old five' today!

Offside and a push....who cares! All over them like a rash?

We will be all over them like a rash as time moves on....but we can't wait too long to equalise or frustrations will be everywhere.

I don't think the troubles at the club will affect the players. They seemed to be focussed under MR.s. However Walsall were having a good season until about a month ago when it came off the rails slightly. This is a local derby at the Ricoh they would have been looking forward to and may be...

If the 400k is true and 50% of catering revnue (not sure how they can do that ) then SISU should for the moment bite the hand that is feeding them. They gain nothing and lose evrything if they don't. There is something fishy here and I expect we should watch this space in the coming week!

No. Different scenario. They can't exactly say they have different circumstances from the year before but they could suggest there is less foot traffic now the crowds for CCFC home games are down? To counter that there are more games at the Ricoh this year. Its not their only stream though...

Who has the biggest balls? This brinkmanship is near conclusion I suspect. I mentioned this last week. Clearly ACL are at their final end game. SISU on the other hand will hold their nerve and wait to see if ACL run out of time. By the time ACL litigate their demands it may be too late for...

Some are taking this out of context. A win and maybe a Wembley trip will help the confidence etc but by the time that Wembley day comes around the league will have all been sorted. My concern is the practicable one. I worry playing more games than we need to means more injuries, fatigue and...

Actually it does surpise me about the size of the potential gate tonight for such a competition. Think maybe the hype and that it is Sheff.Utd has helped there...all this talk we are home and dry should we win this one? Its good marketing though. See what we get next round if we draw carlisle or...

Funny this because I just can't find any common ground to the view that this JPT matters to us? The real prize is promotion and we should do all we can to achieve that. You can say its a trip to Wembley but the shine has fallen off that in recent years with so many new and improved stadia...

I fear it may be acedemic tomorrow anyway I'm afraid. Sheff Utd also know a Wembley trip is on the cards if they win so being as they look the strongest team in this league for me I doubt we will beat them. Just hoping we off the pitch with no injury worries, no sending off, and confidence not...

I think 15 Minute clip of various games as mentioned on here would be a wonderful idea and bring back so many memories for people young and old and the young can see who these players are we old 'uns keep bashing on about! Very minful though that this could be quite a task? How about a you...

That's very well put OSB. The only caveate to that is business is business as they say. What SISU does for their own ends is nothing more than a lot of companies may do. The old cliche of treading on people who get in your way comes to mind. Nothing personal, its busines as Trump would coin a...
