They are still out there.

Surely it’s worth a punt on someone in our predicament?

Fuller

I think he will stay as he doesn't seem the type to jump ship when the going gets tough. I do think a few people on here and social media are unaware how tough next season could be. Only have to look at FGR to see losing can become a habit. Like L1 L2 is now littered with a lot of clubs splashing c...

We needed to win 5 or 6 after the Port Vale game when we still had 15 matches to go. Five games since have yielded two points and three defeats to late goals.
As DC just said on the radio too many weak minds on the pitch.

Mooney sort of player we can afford next season.

Leave my house 14.35. Shanks’ pony. Arrive at WR 14.58.

Lordy Lord ….

If Matty is out for a while, will we take a punt?
Doubt it somehow.
As Wardy often said. “ We’ll go with what we’ve got.”
But we haven’t got much.

Fuller

Good to see ex-Robin Wes Burns doing well at Ipswich and could well be Premiership bound.
If so how many players have been part of a squad that was relegated out of the EFL, and then part of a squad that reached the zenith?

Fuller

It would be a dereliction of duty if we're not looking to see if we can sign a short term deal for a striker. Surely we can tempt someone with 2 months wages plus a League 1 status brucie bonus. Is there a cut off point for signing out of contract players? I did think it was the end of February but...

Fuller

He's more optimistic than me (thank God) … and 99% of the fans I spoke to on the way out tonight. Most of the lads are giving everything, just lack that bit of guile and quality. And conceding late goals two Tuesday’s running. The three wins on the bounce from a couple of weeks ago seem a distant m...

Fuller

We’ve just announced a £0.5 million loss.
Expect a big drop in the playing budget next season.
We’ll have Taylor, Keena, Street and Lloyd here next plus one cheapo and that will be it.

Fuller

From my angle it looked like Keena backed out of the challenge on the halfway line and 10 seconds later Charlton got their second goal.
The bloke offers very little and with Taylor probably out now…….well.

Fuller

Nuttall waste of time signing. We needed to sign forwards in the window who were going to be starters and could make a difference.
And is where is Freestone?

Fuller

Oxford last 11 games only 12 points...nothing to be afraid there. Barnsley tough and Peterboro under the lights on a Tues anything is possible. Are you assuming the Peterborough game will be called off for International call ups and rearranged for a Tuesday? If so, I'm hoping you are right as I can...

Fuller

Is it a case of ‘go for broke’ winning is the only out come for any chance to play L1 soccer in 24/25. What reaction will Alfie May receive pre-game and when he scores. Our games in hand are incredibly important, the players must be reminded of this and that we are in a very difficult relegation ba...

Surely we can do that

Not on the last three performances we won’t.
But on the three performances prior to that we will.
Depends on which CTFC turns up over the last 12 matches.

Fuller

A total of two shots on target in our last three games must be a big concern. How many did we have yesterday, I could only think of two both for Taylor one which seemed a certain goal but defender blocked it and the other the free header which the keeper caught easily. BBC says no efforts on target...

longmover wrote: ↑29 Feb 2024, 12:04 So the Goodwin sale will mitigate some of that loss then?

Yes and the Alfie transfer too. Bearing in mind we are talking about 2022/23 for the big loss.
Think we can all expect a better financial result for 2023/24 with the two transfer fees incoming, presumably offset a bit by paying off Wade?

For anyone (remotely) interested there’s a match on at Whaddon Road tonight.
https://www.ctfc.com/news/2024/february ... -george-h/
As we have a really small squad, I can only presume we will field our youth team.

Shade wrote: ↑23 Feb 2024, 19:01 Shepherd's out, Bradbury starts ahead of Smith. That's the only change in the squad I believe, Bradbury for Shepherd.

Shepherd not in squad and not injured, just squad rotation. Surprising.

Ex- Robin Jonny Smith playing for Wigan.

“Set to report a significant loss for the last financial year, full details on the way in the coming days.”

Not the news I wanted to read, thank you.

I think it’s wrong that smaller, well run clubs like us, who want and need to grow their facilities are not given more assistance by the FA or EFL, or even our own town council.
Wish something would change.

A long way off for sure so probably not in the lifetime of a few of us on here.

Future plans have been mentioned by Board members and at meetings. I think Mark Halliwell knows that Not what he said on the podcast, and I have never seen or heard of any. If we stay in Lg 1 I think we as fans and supporters should hear something about what the plans for the future are. If you hav...

Fantastic all round performance by young William yesterday. Just checking his age and he is 24 this December, and his contract expires this summer. Dead cert for a new contract offer but think he’d probably want to move on (sadly for us) and he must be our most saleable player at this time? Alan not...
