    Chesterfield Crowd

    I'm amazed how many people attend matches and have no idea who half of the players on our own team are, let alone the opposition. Genuinely confuses me. Even as a kid I could name the starting XI of most teams in the top two divisions, and most of those lower down. Although that was probably...

    Match Thread Coventry v Chesterfld Match Thread - Tuesday 1st Nov

    Can't see anything other than a dull 0-0. We average less than a goal a game, so it makes sense from that point of view, plus they aren't pulling up any trees.

    Gary McAllister Player of the year Trophy 1999/2000

    Nice bit of history, but 140 quid is a bit steep. Knock it down to 40 quid and you might get a few takers. Football memorabilia is a big industry, but you have to have the right club to make the big cash money.

    Observation!

    Is it Wasps fault we're in this mess? No. Does their presence help us? No. Would CCFC have more options if Wasps left? Yes. I don't think many people actively blame Wasps for our plight, but they do harbour resentment that they seem to have waltzed in and become the darlings of the council...

    karl Robinson Could Be A Manager Choice

    Does seem a really harsh decision. He took them to a level they had never seen before (in the MK incarnation) and clearly did a solid job. A few iffy results and that's it. Everything he worked so hard to achieve is just forgotten. The world of football is truly insane.

    If we win, Rochdale will be in 9th, despite having lost 1 more than us. Perhaps we're not that bad after all.

    Isn't that 3 wins from the last 4 (assuming we hold on)? Automatic promotion form!

    Yeah, annoyingly, Sportsdevil needs an update every few weeks or the links show as dead.

    Sky tv bt sports

    Google 'sportsdevil seo michael'. Download, go to system and install from zip, select the file, go to video / add-ons / sportsdevil, choose football and then choose the third link (Desports or summat). That usually works.

    The "Glass half full " thread...

    If you turn the newspaper upside down, we're top of the league! Of course, if you have a computer monitor you may have to cut-and-paste into Excel, then chose row 24, cut, and insert copied cells into row 1. Either way works.

    Feel like giving up

    I feel so jealous of other fans; the ones who only have players and managers and league positions to worry about. I have enough stress in my life without all the off-field stuff affecting what is supposed to be my way of relaxing. This club sucks. Still, PUSB.

    Latest SCG Minutes

    I have to say, Fisher came across well in those minutes; reasoned and professional, with actual, non-political answers to several questions. Not all, but some. Fascinating BPA stuff too.

    Northampton Highlights

    Anyone know if the first goal was the quickest ever scored by us in a professional game?

    Nick, I PM'd you about this a couple of months back. This is what happened to me. So goddam annoying.

    Curbishley all day long. Charlton went to shit after he left. Performed miracles. You don't lose ability like that.

    You know, with my sky blue specs on, we've only lost 4 out of 11. Not terrible.

    Sounded like a a heavy hint that he was interested to me. And Clive (I think) said he thought the chances were we'd promote from within. Oh, btw, Geoff suggested Kevin Blackwell.

    Steve Evans

    Actually, Evans has a far better record than I thought. A few promotions, high win percentage. Also managed to stay at dirty Leeds for nearly a whole season, which is an achievement in itself. Maybe it's time we got someone unlikeable in. Perhaps that's what we need.

    Business as Usual

    I think he's just saying Mowbray is pasty his best.

    Mowbray has gone

    For the love of all that's holy, can a thread about a manager resigning not be about that and only that, instead of it always being about sodding SISU? Yes, I know it's linked, but I'm bloody bored of it.
