    Squad have turned up for pre-season training

    "If we can get a few more bodies through the door it isn't that bad a squad to be honest." Problem is, that's not a squad. It's a first 11. And when injuries begin to bite...

    Italy vs Spain

    And after the guy went off with the hamstring injury they gave up completely. Torres has won 2 major trophies this season without doing very much!

    Italy vs Spain

    Does anyone else think the refereeing at these Championships has generally been pretty darn good? They've not been fooled by dives, like Balotelli's just now, in most of the games I've seen and have let the game flow.

    Beckham Left Out of Olympic Squad

    100% the right decision, based on what I saw on TV of Beckham playing for LA Galaxy last week. He was really poor against poor opposition. Kept losing possession. If that was the same game Pearce went to see him in then it was easy to see why he was left out.

    Which breed of dog should i buy?

    The King Charles spaniel can have very serious and distressing health problems. Please read up on that very carefully before buying one. Additional - for clarity this is what I mean (WARNING some may find this footage distressing)...

    Will we start the season?

    What's interesting looking back at that post (who wrote the original? It reads like it was his PR person) is the emphasis on the need for getting hold of the stadium. If it was so key, why did Sisu wait so long to start looking meaningfully into buying a stake?!

    Squad have turned up for pre-season training

    Not much to most of them in that picture. Hope they'll stand up to the physical side of League 1.

    Deal agreed with rangers for John Fleck

    The Daily Record says Charlton are favourites to sign Fleck & Sheffield Utd are also interested. He says he doesn't like the chaos at Rangers. Comiing here would like jumping out of the fire and into the frying pan, wouldn't it...

    Takeovers/ investment

    Some might argue Sisu have undertaken major surgery Jan. They've taken our legs off. The trouble is that without coupling it to major investment in the right drugs and replacement legs we've fallen to (or through) the floor!

    Takeovers/ investment

    The Beeb headlines today suggest takeovers for Forest, Watford and Port Vale, plus investment in Leeds. There's money and interest in football out there. Is Sisu not looking for investment or is no one willing to go anywhere near us?

    "They offered me quite a good deal but there was something I felt wasn't quite right"

    So if it was us Ccfcway, do you know what the "something wasn't quite right" was?

    "They offered me quite a good deal but there was something I felt wasn't quite right"

    No worse guess than saying "he probably met Thorn" though is it? We simply don't know for sure which club he was talking about or what his concern was.

    "They offered me quite a good deal but there was something I felt wasn't quite right"

    If you were not a supporter of the club, just a prospective employee, and you were offered a job at Cov would you take it if you already had work elsewhere? "something I felt wasn't quite right about it" like, maybe, there's no guarantee I'd still have employment with the club by Christmas...

    CCFC Ltd Accounts

    Looking at those figures OSB has posted the wage splurge we went on after the Sisu takeover looks totally reckless. A quick punt on 'instant success' and a big payback by selling the club in the Premier League that fell short? If they had been open with the fans I'm sure the majority would have...

    If the estimates that our fall from the Championship will cost us about £4m are correct, and assuming in 2011/12 our turnover remained about £10m, then wouldn't that mean that this year (2012/13) turnover will probably be more like £6m. Therefore, under FFP next year we will sure have something...

    Quick question OSB re SBS&L owing £6.3m to normal creditors. It had been thought Sisu was owed the debt so wouldn't call in the loan. This suggest there is a fair chunk owed to those outside the Sisu stable of companies who might want it back, particularly if they read these accounts. They won't...
