    Kilbane on football focus

    This is true. Although primarily it's the "big" six that get all the press...then the rest of the Prem. I listen to TalkSport which is really a Premiership football radio station for 95% of the time. More concerned with 7lbs excess on Wayne Rooney than the plight of any club outside the Prem.

    Ccfc....well supported

    There are other factors in the mix too...like other clubs in our locality. The Vile, WBA, Blues all within easy striking distance...Manure, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs aren't too far a stretch for those keen enough. Then there's the price of a game in these economic times...& family pressures. If...

    If you need one I'm sure it can be arranged if you ask the ticket office.

    Embarrassing fans at away games

    Well I don't miss them. The atmosphere & edge is missing because there are lower attendances than when we were in the premiership, there are poorer performances & results on the pitch & the fact that we cannot unite constructively behind the club, team nor even individual players it seems

    Plastic Saints fans

    The point looks fairly clear to me...Saints have bigger gates than us at the same level of football...& the lower the level the greater the difference. That suggests a much more loyal fan base. I live in Soton & even in the bad days there was always a general feeling of positivity & optimism.

    Embarrassing fans at away games

    Football is primarily a GAME. Games are to be enjoyed. Professional football is a business - one which has seen a healthy increase in attendances since respectful people have observed the risk of exposure to mindless thuggery has reduced significantly too. Accepting this tribal thing of...

    Embarrassing fans at away games

    So much wrong in your thoughts IMO. You appear to suggest that there is no need to show any respect for the equally hard working paying fan with a 10yr old in tow that would prefer their child not be subjected to such offensive, aggressive, mindless abuse. It's about respect for others. Even to...

    They wouldn't do that - reduce the paying fan-base?

    clingan still no club

    Yes but Michael Owen is an expensive option to keep the treatment table warm when a blanket will do.

    clingan still no club

    The simple fact is that reality is starting to bite for these guys...their agents are simply bullish about matters as I gues they are happy to get by on a cut of fees for transferring/signing/etc rather than needing the monthly retainer type payment. Players will perhaps realise how misguided...

    Potential New Managers - An Overview

    Quite...He did not have a bad spell at Newcastle as manager so there are no stats...so why suggest the bad spell at all? He could've signed Lionel Messi & the manager might have made that look a bad signing too! Maybe I'm being pedantic? Either way good on you for doing the grafting to work it...

    Potential New Managers - An Overview

    Well sadly, after sparking my interest initially you lost all credibility by saying Dennis Wise had a bad spell at Newcastle & then choosing to ignore that spell in your analysis. You may be willing & able to ignore that bad spell but if I am going to be swayed with stats I want all of them. On...

    Coventry v Birmingham matchday thread

    But they have dozens of the darned things waiting to be used pitch-side. They should just walk up take it off him & tell him to grow up...it is just a ball after-all

    Fisher on cwr at 8am again

    This is all just Chinese whispers - I just spoke directly with him. He missed the CWR thing as he was called to turn ON THE HEATING ready for tonight's game as it gets a bit chilly in the directors box these late summer (???) nights
