So if it isn't in Coventry and CCFC are playing in another town, that's far more important than 4-5-1 or 4-4-2.
Burying heads in the sand will do us a lot of good. But never mind eh, let's cheer the lads on in Northampton. Wonderful.

We'll win 2-1, and lose another part of the club with this stupid situation.

Nick, you really know how to debate don't you. Can see you and Robbo in the boardroom with Joy, using all your negotiating skills and silver tongue.

Covhead, not sure about 700, they might go for a 'pressing game' with 600.

So don't do it in a thread talking about the game.. some people want to talk about the game.

The fact is though that these "some people" are now the minority, so any mention of Football is almost a sideshow to the enduring problems that have been created off the field. We are neither home or away today, and the majority of fans seem to be unable to just forget that and talk about a game as if nothing has happened. What I can tell you though is we need to win. We are still to get a point on the board FFS....oh wait that's self inflicted too...and we are back to the off field problems again.

But it's all ACL's fault! Even though there was no need to go into liquidation in the first place and the administration process was flawed.

Clarke to score first, Manset to get a last minute winner.

Just as valid as "Bore Off" and "Whinge and Protest".

"Just had a mate of mine contact me by e-mail. He was just about to set off on a land rover rally in the Gobi desert. Some bloke rushed up to him on a camel and whispered in his ear - pssst do you want some tickets for Coventry vs Preston on Sunday?

Desperate or what?" Grendals thread.


Thats how to properly start a debate, eh grendal!!!!

Back on topic.
On the PNE forums they are mostly going COV 1-2 PNE but a lot of them have Clarke down to score first!

Could be tight, I'll go 2-2

You think taking match threads off topic is gonna bring Ccfc home? Is that the master plan?

not allowed to talk about the attendance then? And how weird the atmosphere will be once again? Match threads have always been about more than 11 men on a field kicking a ball around, Nick it seems to me you're indulging in cheap irrelevant point-scoring yourself by trying to shoot down valid discussion of the context of the match, how about some constructive contribution about the football instead eh?

Attendence is fine, pointless posts asking where the game is being played and if it it's an away game is off topic and can be carried on in one of the 1900000000 nopm threads surely?

People keep saying the ones going to games are selfish but just reading on message boards it is the opposite.

3-1 Clarke, Wilson & Daniels.

Think with the way we are scoring we've got this one in the bag, plus i cant stand Preston, Daniels will want to preform with Baker returning from his suspension. I just really want us to win

Well if you let the likes of Grendel run about hassle free, can't really complain when the troll count rises on the other side can you?

Tough game today, Preston are everything we're not: experienced, strong, manager with tactical canniness. We're on good form and they'll be pressure to do well and keep the Sixfields pressure up.

I'm going 2-2, late equaliser for Preston. Wilson and Clarke to score.
