I'm more concerned with him having to run to Asda from CCFC's training ground.

(I assume he means Higgs, and not Ryton )

Is thay really from the bible? Interesting

In my faith it does say people who are obsessed with money And material possessions won't go very fsr in afterlife

But if Bigi is aa devout as he seems I imagine alot of his wealth goes to charity. Or at least I hope it does

Not just rich people though. I thibk everyone should give a lil to charity. I mean if your homeless or about go bankrupt that's different. But a £5 a month even if you thibk your car is shitty and door needs new hinges is doable in my book!

Sorry but off topic!

It's not just money. Time is a great gift to a charity and very rewarding personally. Something we've done as a family for a few years now.

A ban on religious gestures on the pitch...

Remember when the FA made it a booking offence for players to lift their shirts over their heads to celebrate scoring (Ravanlli style)?

Ysrael Zuniga scored for us at HR and lifted his shirt and the ref ran up with his hand up to his pocket ready to pull out a yellow card. Before he pulled out the card the ref saw the front of the t-shirt that Zuniga was wearing under his shirt - which had a print that read "I 'heart' Jesus". The ref didn't seem to quite know what to do and ended up waving Zuniga away without a booking.

My point... petty rules are often difficult to enforce. As long as it isn't something grossly offensive to others, where's the harm?

Booking people for celebrating a goal is ridiculous. Unless they do something offensive or take too long just let them have their moment.

Ben "we can rant every week, realism is SISU aren't going to talk with the fans, they don't care. You see lower league clubs who have fans as owners, we are the opposite, they don't care. They promised communications would be better, they haven't been, they don't care. I don't blame Mowbray, he is a top manager who has his hands tied "

Most certainly we should let him go now, he can attract players I agree, the only problem is he can't motivate the players once we have them. I'm afraid any team would suffer under TM nowadays as he really seems to have lost that spark

I'm afraid in this instance we have to sack the manager now and get somebody in who can motivate the players, instil a decent game plan into them, and most important get the selection and the substitutions right

Not sacking managers quick enough cost is relegation twice.

So we shouldn't have sacked Pressley - that according to you didn't work?
