Badly put on my part,

Just really angry as someone who had decided to stand up and do something voluntarily had been criticised.

The only way our club will thrive is by people being brave enough to put their head above the parapet.

I can't post without using my old work log in (perhaps someone will advise how I can change?) Perhaps tweeted too soon, and without the benefit of taking a deep breath, but heard one or two things having been in the away end at Barnet that irked me. As many of you will know, long before I ever got i...

James from the Echo

Probably not, for the moment at least.

Won't be a stranger to CTFC - done too much time with the club for that.

Will now (after a bit of a break) be able to get back involved with the Robins Trust again as no longer a conflict of interest.

Passionately want that organisation to succeed.

James from the Echo

Hopefully nothing to do with the abuse you have, harshly I will add, received by at least one bully on here, JY? Best wishes for the future :) . Big enough and certainly ugly enough to take that on the chin... Especially when they are often behind the cloak of a unknown name. Part of the job (I now...

The Robins Trust rules on the matter. 12.0 Application of profits and duties of the Society Board. 12.1 The application of the Society’s profits must be spent in accordance with Rule 7 of the Society’s Model Rules. 12.2 In order to facilitate the Society Board to make payments the following sliding ...

Your final point probably nails it RCS. In the first few years, while the Trust was becoming operational the typical investments were low. Now they are larger. The typical investments now are around £10k per annum, as that is what the Trust's typical annual turnover is. Worth noting that the actual ...

James from the Echo

Not trying to misrepresent Horlickfanclub. I was a signatory on the Trust's chequebook for a number of years. I have signed off on those amounts in the past. The exact figure of the investments by the Trust is probably nearer £275,000 over 10 years (The exact figures aren't to hand at the moment as ...

Two pieces from a really good chat with Scott Brown at Seasons this morning. You forget what a bloody nice bloke he is. First: How he's happy to be at Crewe and not White Hart Lane this weekend: http://bit.ly/BrownCrewe" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; And secondly: Why he fe...

James from the Echo

One was due to an accident in Gloucester and the Radio Glos man taking 90 mins to get from Glos to Seasons.

Today, there was an accident on the M5, so GJ was slightly delayed.

Don't think it's a major problem. I can wait, they have chairs and everything at Seasons!

James from the Echo

Gary Johnson still wants one more new face in January, and admits that others may leave - if they ask for first-team football. Also, GJ on contracts for the existing players on the staff: http://bit.ly/GJMoreTransfers" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; Who are the candidates to...

Plus Jack Munns on how he will be ordering Deliveroo as neither him, Billy Waters or Jack Barthram can cook.

James from the Echo

Afternoon all. Been trawling through the archives looking back at Christmas Day fixtures and also Boxing Day games while in the Football League. This year's Festive fixture list is as light as it's ever been with only two games between Christmas and New Year - in the 30s, 40s and 50s that was never ...

James from the Echo

Usual Thursday morning press day today, can tell that it's coming up to transfer time as BBC TV and ITV were both there... First of all, Gary Johnson is certain that the Robins aren't in a relegation battle, not yet anyway: http://bit.ly/NotRelegationBattle" onclick="window.open(this.href)...

James from the Echo

Keogh signed in the March. His debut was THAT game at Leeds during Gold Cup week.

I've included (from the best of my knowledge and that of our files) those signed only in January - or as in the case of Gillespie and Diallo - those turning loans into permanents in Jan.

James from the Echo

Afternoon folks. Didn't want to look back on the weekend too much (don't think anyone does!) so thought about doing something a bit different. With January coming up and the window looking to be vital, thought it would be good to see how the Robins have fared in the 11 windows since the system was a...

Did well to spot that, Fuller.

Was only live for about five minutes in the machinations of our website.

It will publish properly tomorrow morning and there will be links to follow tweeted out then.

James from the Echo

At the risk of veering back to some news.

Had a good chat with the chairman earlier about finances, Gary Johnson, January etc..

Still here. Trousers intact and at a respectable level. As I said yesterday, had an amicable chat with GJ after the cameras stopped rolling. He understands my position as much as I understand his. We have different jobs to do. Holding the usual Friday lunchtime webchat today at 1pm. Feel free to dro...

James from the Echo

No problems with the manager disagreeing with something I've done. It's part of the territory in this job. We had a very amicable chat about it after the cameras stop rolling, he appreciates that my job isn't always to praise. I put my side across, he did his. We both accept the other's point of vie...
