    Private Seat Licence (SPL)

    The guy next to me didn't renew and his padding and name was removed. Yes still have to pay ST on top of that one off £375 but the real and only significant benefit was the first Prem ST being the same as previous season, again as a one off. PUSB

    Private Seat Licence (SPL)

    Do any of you remember (approx six years ago) the then initiative of Paul Fletcher (MD of CCFC) to bolster the transfer kitty of one Micky Adams via a unique ffund raising scheme ??? As ever eager to support anything for the Sky Blue cause I duly paid £375 and received a humungus sized...

    Gael Bigirimana

    I believe players who have genuine ability stand out from the crowd no matter what age or disposition. The scale of Gael's ability has been noticed and appreciated by the vast majority of CCFC fans, media and pundits in just four games - they cannot all be wrong !!! I have watched hundreds...

    Who is the worst goalkeeper you've ever seen?

    Bartez of Man U was an absolute shocker - he was the dead ringer for the blind guy in the Great Escape PUSB

    Gael Bigirimana

    Let us look at the footballing facts surrounding Gael so far this season: he looks very, very comfortable on the ball rarely gives it away (except for the Watford game - nerves jangled) can retain and regain possession looking for openings has pace isn't afraid to shoot appears committed to the...

    BIG BEN v the BACK FOUR

    I also quite like that SP4916 - there is indeed some similarity in the positions and style of play with "wingbacks" and "wide midfield" players. I could definetly see Christie and Hussey bombing up the flanks a bit like the Gareth Bale conversion at Spurs (obviously not as good) but definitely...

    BIG BEN v the BACK FOUR

    Now that the best defender on the books is near for first team duty again - who will make way ??? Possibly only two scenarios: Keogh Turner Cranie Hussey or Cranie Keogh Turner Hussey Which do you prefer ??? PUSB

    An outsider's view...

    Maybe Macman's post will at least jolt us in our perception of the Ricoh Arena. When you think about it it is a MAGNIFICENT stadium up there better than some Prem clubs and certainly worthy of huge acclaim despite things like parking and refreshment niggles. I feel a bit of pride now in at...

    Eto'o to become 'highest paid' footballer (340k per week)

    My final comment on this matter is: how does the manager motivate 11 multi millionaires at half time ??? PUSB

    Eto'o to become 'highest paid' footballer (340k per week)

    I just cannot get my head around these lunatic salaries that players now receive for just kicking a football around - Samuel Eto's "wage" is £344,000 per week or £17,900,000 per annum (@ todays euro exchange rate) - it simply beggars belief. Nearer to home a Mr W Rooney is purported to...

    good job we never signed Phillips

    A natural predator will always retain its basic instinct - Philips has the god given gift of findinng the back of the onion bag no matter what age, league or if his "legs have gone" - what a ridiculous statement, his legs are always in goal scoring mode What a star - is it now 4 goals scored...

    SPL v EPL or Hearts 0-5 Spurs

    I know this is an old chestnut but bearing in mind the recent Hearts v Spurs result where would the "old firm" sit in the English League, if at all possible, and where would they finish. Personally I would think Celtic would finish just outside of the playoffs and Rangers about halfway in our...

    BARCELONA - Pure Magic

    Good reply Rich AT has definitely ditched the hoof ball mentality from CCFC but as you say we haven't quite got the tools yet to complement the style front to back on the park. I believe when/if we get a few goals and points in the bag AT's style will look even better. PUSB

    BARCELONA - Pure Magic

    Having watched last nights Super Cup between Barcelona and Real Madrid one can only wonder what planet the English game is on. Where is the 6' 5" centre Forward in the Barca team, where is the hoof ball, where is the constant back passing ??? They really play football the basic way as it is...

    THE BEAUTIFUL GAME - Can We Improve It ???

    Well its nearly midnight - thoroughly depressed with recent events on an off the field - thought I would home in on suggestions to improve our national sport for the better. The basic concept of league footy has remained virtually unchanged for years but there have been a few peripheral...
