pretty sure 1000+ away weren't uncommon in the late 90's, or am I misty eyed on that?

longmover

When was the last time CTFC took 1000+ to a league away game?

longmover

what's the story here, injured or on the naughty step?

longmover

I'll believe that when I see it.

Anyone know who the clubs are at our level who own their own grounds? It's murky but I understood Derby and Reading did own their grounds but that was moved to companies under their former/current owners. Portsmouth, Bolton, Lincoln, Burton, Northampton, Cambridge and Wycombe own their grounds base...

yes, the late 90's there was one don't think it lasted too long though. There must be someone on here that still has a copy or two?

longmover

Possibly but I believe Ipswich and Plymouth received quite a bit of US based investment before Wrexham became a thing. I can see the logic with someone like Ipswich, they come invest £20 million and if that money get's them to the Premier league they make a huge return. If it fails it's a relative ...

longmover

it would be a nice gesture from the club that would show some thanks for a quite awful season and doing their bit to get as many supporters to a vital game.

ST's go on sale soon so maybe a good bit of PR for the club (if they want it).

longmover

in my time supporting CTFC (early 90's) I've never purchased a programme.

just thought you'd all like to hear that.

This was brought up at the forum that the majority of EFL clubs now have American investment however whilst not explicitly stated the indication was that this was not something which would be welcomed here. I do fear we could be left behind without it as even clubs like Wycombe, who are a similar s...

Lincoln FFS!!

A team we beat to the conference championship. It amazes and astounds me how these provincial teams (see Carlisle) attract big money from America.

longmover

It's definitely lacking and very noticeable how our midfield has improved when it's Bonds/Pett rather than Pett/Kinsella. Would love to see us add big powerful and pacy forward (similar to Jones for Posh) who can give us an outlet and let us play on the counter attack in the summer no matter which ...

tbf to POSH they came into the game in the second half and dominated us, if they had managed to score I reckon we would have fallen apart.

Forest - who have admitted to collectively 'cheating' over finances now accuse an individual referee of the same. My mind is scrambled. Do they not also have a point deduction appeal soon...? Please relegate them. yeah and that :lol: This horrible Trump like approach that's creeping into football i...

longmover

The Cambridge Utd forum is an interesting read, they want the EFL to look into the Peterborough team selection.

tbf if there's a chance of you getting relegated then its not down to one game that Cambridge aren't even competing in.

longmover

we're due a game where everything clicks and we're unplayable, if that's one game then let it be tonight and we'll take a chance on Saturday.

Bit of a strange vibe about tonight (for me anyway) a few things for this: The fans forum Murry Leaving the board DC's future A slight lingering feeling that we could still do it Is another season in league one good for us (financially)? This rearranged game taking place the same week as the final w...

longmover

Murry seems to have a love/hate relationship with the board. It's not the first time he's been on the board and left. I don't doubt he probably feels a bit toothless at trying to get things he's suggested through - but I also believe that it's more down to a change in his personal work circumstance...

longmover

Bit odd though, accepting the position as a director you would hope that you're aware of the constraints it will have on your time and your work life (as in you have an idea of how busy your work life is for the foreseeable and therefore accept the role as a director) also Murry 'liking' that anti B...

thought as much, not heard from him in a while.

longmover

Are there any players that would miss the game on Saturday if they get yellow carded Tuesday night.

If there isn’t then i’d like to see some players taking one for the team and bringing opposition players down before the inevitable happens, like yesterday.

longmover

according to our more ‘radical’ fanbase on the socials there could be some anti Bloxham sentiment today, probably not the best idea to have a ‘prickly’ fans forum a few days before a vital few fixtures.

could get a bit nasty if we lose.

Also in events hosted by the club that include the chairman, board members and the first team manager can they not do any better than having them sat behind a sad looking table, where's the marketing hoardings that display the club crest (that cover the whole table), various sponsors of the club, wh...

longmover

wouldn’t be surprised if DC leaves if he doesn’t see what he wants to happen regarding ‘growth’, these meetings he has sound like the deal breaker for him. I was quite shocked that Bloxham thinks CTFC can ‘just’ sell players each season to survive and was backed up by other members of the board as t...

Elliot Bonds is sooo slow and can Taylor spend more time actually trying to win a header rather than ducking out of headers to try and win a fee kick, which isn’t working.

Please could you elaborate...

total disarray on the pitch until the dying embers of the game then we put it together, too little too late.

longmover

there’s certainly a stench of ‘Elliot’s last days’ around the club at the moment.

longmover

fair enough, DC has to take this one then, too much riding on a game to experiment and still wait until the 2nd to make any changes bearing in mind yiur one down.

longmover

why the big reaction to the ‘change’ at the start of the game then?

longmover

“keep it simple”

by changing to a new formation with a day on the training pitch prior to the game. Why not just use the same system that pushed Exeter in the 2nd half?

I also don’t understand why he continued a whole half when it was quite obvious it wasn’t working after ten minutes?
