    Would you back calls for a European Super League of 22 teams?

    The reason for a league over a whole season is the strength and fascination of it. The whole thing takes on a different perspective from a cup competition. Winning a league is far more difficult. Would love to see it. As for the semantics of it all...I'm merely suggesting at this point in time.

    It is worth getting Skyblues player

    I've said b4 that Sky's and the football league/FA/premier league virtual monopoly is unfair practice. If CCFC were mine I'd launch my own TV and do my own deals to show every game home and away to subscribers live online. Do my own local deals with pubs too. Would this affect gate receipts...

    Would you back calls for a European Super League of 22 teams?

    What a league that would be. You get promoted to it by winning your own domstic league. You get relegated by being in the bottom 6. Suppose it was made up of 4 top teams from Spain, France, Germany, Italy, England and two from weaker leagues in say Holland and Scotland. So from here you...

    Biggest failure of the season

    West Ham will be a big failure if after getting big Sam and keeping most of their squad they fail to get promoted while Southampton go up immediately having come from league 1. I think that will be seen as the biggest failure down in the east end!

    Who is our biggest rival?

    Taking this question from the survey post... I was interested to see who consider who as our biggest rival? Think it may depend on your age and memories over the decades but interesting to see how you all quantify this... For me it would be Villa closely followed by Wolves. How about...

    Happy with a point at Bristol

    Depends entirely on what happens everywhere else.

    Peterboro'

    Very astute Astute. I think this week end and Monday will determine our fate just about. We may only draw on Saturday and be 2 points ahead of Bristol going into a packed Ashton gate. A win for them would put them one point ahead of us with just 4 to play assuming they lost at Forest...

    season 2012/2013

    Hypothetical of course but i would suggest only a few more to bulk up the squad and perhaps a couple of 'name' players where we need them most that would also add a big kick of extra confidence to the team. Not an awful lot of dosh surely? We will be in a fair condition even with SISU still at...

    Student jailed for racist Fabrice Muamba tweets

    We are losing our liberty faster than a number 9 bus can arrive. Absolutely insensitive what the guy said in his twitter post but frankly it is just harmless post on some stupid site that sheep folloow for the most part. Like TV if you don't like you have a choice. Free speech in all it forms...

    It's reached that point....

    Exactly right Otis. There is plenty of our pouring of support for AT at the minute because we finally won one away and got fortunate in the process. But that's football if we don't balance the effects of good and bad luck by making things happen then we deserve nothing.

    is it just coincidence

    It's a conspiracy. :D

    if we survive should we keep thorn???

    I think it's wrong to keep barking on about comparisons to other teams. Yes we have a smaller squad but overall what we have maintained is a decent squad. That's certainly proven by the results of late. That can't be argued. If they are over achieving now then you can say they were under...

    if we survive should we keep thorn???

    If we stay up and we still have little money and same owners then yes without doubt. If we change owners and have money backing serious ambition then a change would be sensible...during the off season. If the so called takeover is still in the balance then I see AT continuing till Xmas. If...

    We need to calm down a bit

    There's one thing that has changed recently. Freddie has finally left the club. he according to my sources was disliked around the dressing rooom. His family drank all the money put over the bar collectively by the players for the after match gatherings. there were groups of his family taking...

    Well Done SISU

    There is some merit in that perhaps. They probably thought we were heading for league 1 tbh. More a case of a little hindsight on their part and a lot of good fortune. But we have not survived yet.

    It has to be said ...

    ...that's a little too personal. :D

    It has to be said ...

    Yes it is. Some of you belong elsewhere perhaps GMK might be a more appropriate place for name calling and getting personal? Accept differing opinions, try and see why those other opinions are held? If someone else's viewpoint is not yours OK but you can't force your own down peoples throats...

    It has to be said ...

    I'm not getting into this argument with anyone - it's been debated time and again and clearly there are differences of opinion. That said I stick by what I've said. Thorn has been responsible for no away wins all season (until today) that has put us in the bottom three. The team are better than...
