Not to make an immediate judgment 15 minutes into a friendly but Hamer looks absolute class.

I agree with all of this. What I think is clear is that SISU has always been motivated to buy the Ricoh on the cheap. Not being judgmental on that; they are a venture capital company seeking a return for their investors. They tried various tactics first time around to get the Ricoh on the...

cc84cov, always enjoy your posts but in this case you're relegating Giles to the bench (after seeing him play for all of 19 minutes) in favour of a player who's been linked to about 10 clubs no doubt by his agent....seems pre-emptive even by our very high standards! not many on here (including...

Ian Wallace drove by us on the Foleshill Rd in a sponsored car in the late 70s - as a young kid who idolised Wallace it made my day/week/month. Sign of the times as well. Pretty certain that I will never see an elite Premiership footballer on the Foleshill Road again!

It's City and we often have pre-season disasters; best case in point Lee Hurst and Gouldy's brilliant idea to have the lads train on army assault course. O'Hare. Cruciate. First 10 minutes. Season ending injury. Later blamed on match fitness. Instant throw away of the Sky Blue Afro that I have...

I agree N4ted. Last season Godden wasn't match fit when he arrived, then played through an injury for quite a few games - that's very very difficult as the lone striker and always being outnumbered. It was only in the last 3rd of the season that we began to see the best of Godden - and he...

Fantastic to have 2 top quality signings on the books at this time - Hamer and O'Hare. And if we're looking for pace in the back 3; DaCosta could be just the player we need. What is really exciting is how we build on this. I'm sure there will be another couple of permanent signings. But...

Note to stadium announcer. Do your job, be prepared and ready to play 'Pump it Up' to celebrate every O'Hare goal.

Usually agree with you Dreamer but slightly different views on this one. Not buying into the current fashion of players being played out of position and suddenly becoming Championship superstars (for example the idea of playing Pask in midfield and someone else was suggesting switching Dabo...

Agreed with a lot of what I'm reading; this analysis is flawed in many ways. What we do know is that Robins selects on performance vs. having his own 'signings on the pitch.' If it's not working out then he's pretty ruthless in changing things; Ogogo, Brown and Chaplin for example arrived with...

Don't really get the hate towards Lee Burge to be honest. Denigrating ex-players makes us look totally classless. Burge was with us from the age of 18 and in his time here had some fantastic games; Notts County away was one of them. As with most keepers he's going to make mistakes - look...

I agree with you Corrado - this David Michael Collins poster sounds like an absolute tw@t. Kicking a young lad who is no doubt heartbroken after leaving a club where he has spent his formative years. Moreover a young kid who no doubt heavily regrets one moment of stupidity (that in my view)...

Hope it's not a white horse given the events at Broadgate; our unfortunate new reputation as racists would be further entrenched.

To be technically correct ccfcway, it's actually 'ten bags Bayliss'! I wish Hickman well in his future career, he made a stupid mistake (honestly thank God that social media wasn't around when I was 19)......in fact good luck to all of the lads getting into the taxis (to coin another legendary...

Seriously makes us look classless in this situation if we go around disparaging other clubs and ex-players. It’s embarrassing to be honest. We should just be proud, very proud to be CCFC supporters today - I know most of us are and for very good reason.

Beat me to it!

I agree, We found a way to score goals late on to rescue situations or win games. Baka's late strike at home vs. Donny was one of those moments, what a strike that was. What a celebration. In the final month of the season we also found ways to win games whilst not being at our very best - a...

Max. Away at Peterboro. Return to full fitness after a serious injury. World class strike and fantastic scenes in the away end. You could tell how much that goal meant to Max and to all of us. And a brilliant write up of that goal in The Lonely Season blog a couple of days later...

It's a great shout Oscillate, and there have been some great discussions on that topic on here which I am sure will continue in terms of our all time great managers. One thing is for sure; Robins joins the club.

No let's order the taxi PVA, to take Robins' directly to the CCFC hall of fame - joining the elite company of Storer, Hill, Milne and Sillet as one of our all time great managers.
