Looking at where these clubs finished last season: Shrewsbury – 12th Bolton – 5th Reading – 22 nd Championship Portsmouth – 8th Northampton – 3rd - L2 Barnsley – 4th Peterboro – 6th Exeter – 14th Stevenage – 2nd - L2 Lincoln - 11th That is a pretty tough opening set with 8 out of 10 who finished hig...

I always thought the BBC radio rights were agreed with the EFL rather than individual clubs. Interesting. I think any club has the option to opt out. When Cheltenham played Sunderland at Whaddon Road I wanted to listen to the Radio Newcastle commentary team of Nick Barnes and Gary Bennett on iFollo...

I think the issue today is the fitness of Stokes. If were able to be one of the main seam bowlers then both Bairstow and Foakes would be in the team.

Not enough!

Indeed. In terms of England, what could have been if they had a proper, world class wicket keeper they could have chosen... Bairstow, I think, dropped 3 catches and missed an easy stumping. I'm not sure how many runs those players then went on to make after they should have been dismissed but it wa...

As soon as read cttc-fan's post, I am sure that somebody would point out the error of his ways. It took less than half an hour.

Probably an equivalent to a slap on the wrist. If it were me making the decisiion, I would suspend his pro-licence for next season.

I would also give out similar type suspensions to the likes of Klopp, Arteta etc.

They had to sell Highfield Rd to pay off the debts built up from over 30 years of fighting relegation. T You have summed it up perfectly. what the problem is with football Coventry lived beyond their means for 30 years. In any other business, they would have wound up. Maybe, they should have told t...

There always seems to be a lot of selective amnesia in MSM when clubs like Luton and Coventry are successful. They seem to forget that when these clubs got into financial difficulty at one time or another, many people and businesses lost a lot of money when they went bust. If I were trading with a f...

I assume that he has been found guilty of fraud that he fails the EFL director's test and so will be barred from any involvment in Fleetwood FC.

After almost getting "relegated", I was pleased that I have done enough to avoid the dreaded drop!

Let;s put our away fan numbers in perspective.

I would estimate that we have 3000 hard core fans. If we take, say, 450 to an away game that is 15%.

It is equivalent to 4500 fans from a club that has 30,000 hard core fans.

We don't do so bad at all.

With the end of iFollow streaming, it will mean less money from me going directly into CTFC's coffers. I assume it will be available on Now TV and so assume all of it ends up in Sky's pockets.

No brainer on which to vote for but it is a shame that Alfie's second at Peterboro' and Ellott's at Cambridge would win any other season.

It is do with Sky TV showcasing the League 1 end of season finale. Hence no live coverage.

The issue is more to do with our away performances against the strugglers. We have lost at FGR, Accrington, Morecambe, Oxford and Burton. We should looking to at least draw away at these clubs.

Once the "big name" clubs decided on setting up their own women's teams then the FA do what they always do to smaller clubs by living up to what their initials stand for.

Listening to his post match interview, he wants a possession based approach but doesn't understand players at League 1 level don't have the consistent ability to play it. When faced with a high press they are more liable to make mistakes. He needs a completely different set of players if that what h...

Pastor Don Bliss is in the US but regularly follows us and messages in to Radio Glos. He once said he was listening in the middle of a baptism and when we scored ran down the aisles of the church with the baby celebrating!

Peter Matthews commentary is so inaccurate. Do you think he thinks he can still only be heard on the radio, because there's no attempt to say he was wrong. Same every time I watch iFollow. Also, 35 mins played and they keep saying FGR are 0-0 with Derby, when Derby have been 0-1 up since the second...
