Season Ticket holder for 47 years - missed only 8 home games in that period Long time ago I know but in the first First Division season after promotion saw 40 out of 42 games PUSB

I'm going for Ipswich 1 CCFC 2 (as in my prediction choice) and letting my heart rule my head, as always, although I did get the 2-0 against Watford right and 3 points for the PD - currently 9th at moment. Going to watch the match on the big screen at my local club in the next village -...

Wallace, Sorry if my thread upset you but as you can see the majority of my threads are on different topics/aspects of football that can stimulate discussion/banter and comment to make life on SBT more stimulating and interesting. I have and still do see some posts on SBT that have...

I am sure many of you have watched enough games involving CCFC and other clubs to decide which players are complete prats BUT boy wouldn't they be good in our team. When I mean prat I am referring to the type of player that is obnoxious, disrespectful and one you feel like giving a slap...

Whilst praising George Hudson to the roof tops as one of the finest players ever to play for CCFC I've got to mention Tommy Hutchison as arguably the BEST player to wear the Sky Blue shirt. This guy was really beyond belief - to watch his mazy runs down the left touchline was a sight to...

Sorry folks - 62 goals in 113 games for CCFC - 162 goals in 296 games in career. it was late at night is the excuse !!! PUSB

Some of the posts picking their best 11 of all time included George Hudson but most SBT's were not around at the time to witness one of the greatest players of all time play for CCFC. GH was bought from Peterboro in 1963 replacing current legend Terry Bly causing absolute mayhem for City fans...

Period for me: 1963-2011 Playing AT's "Diamond" formation Glazier Nielson - Curtis - Peake - Pearce McAllister Humphries - S Hunt I Gibson Dublin - Hudson

MC has to be one of the most assured players on the books and certainly the most improved making centre back a formality for AT's team sheet. Deceptive in the air, not being a giant like BT and RW, and very calm on the ball. Yet another player blossoming under AT's spell PUSB

OOPs - didn't read previous posts - may have repeated certain facts

STEVE HUNT - born 4th August 1956. Signed from NY Cosmos and played for CCFC from 1978-1984 scoring 27 goals in 185 games Position: Left Winger On his day (in fact most days) SH was as an exciting player you could ever wish to see. Operating wide left his pace and final delivery from deep...

Having taken the p___ out of the USA's favourite sport I thought it was only fair to disclose a conversation I heard recently between an English cricket fan Roger and his American friend Chuck. Roger "well Chuck how are you getting on with our beautiful summer game, cricket - the only sport we...

Well impressed (seriously) with the in depth knowledge of the USA game as posted by several SBT members. I am a bit more enlightened but it still reminds me of something about my preference to dry painting or is it paint drying etc PUSB

Just wondering if there are any stats to support CCFC's different style of play from last season to this. It is blindingly obvious that our current playing system (which is superb) has resulted in a drastic imrovement in our passing rate compared to last season. I wonder how we compare with...

Thanks ajsccfc, Brilliant responce to my flippancy But it will never replace the beautiful game - end to end - 100mph - unbelievable athleticism / skills etc. PUSB

Nothing on at the moment, thought I might stir up a few NFL fans. I have tried my damned hardest to try and understand what the USA NFL "Football" game is really all about - when you think about it it should'nt be called football at all as there is no foot and ball at all in open play ...

The modern game today particularly the Prem League is totally unsustainable in the medium/long term because of the culture of gross spending on: transfer fees, agents fees and players salaries. I have sent in many posts to SBT highlighting this fact which is resulting in too many clubs chasing...

Isn't it great to see us playing the full width of the park with this formation which utilises both full backs ability to bomb forward when we attack. I'm sure this unnerves the opposition because of the need for their midfielders/defenders to pull wide to counter this type of attacking play...

Marty, I believe it is to do with a bonus point being awarded for scoring four tries or more PUSB

Football finance reminds me of the continual failure of auditors to sign off the books of the EU - that monolith continues to drift on year after year clearly operating illegally as far as conventional finance ethics is concerned. Football is probably worse because at times it is a bit more...
