Very disappointing about chopra, my farther is a taxi driver down Cardiff and often sees chopra in the bookies down the bay. Don't think jones got his message across very well because he's seen him down there numerous times this week including today :(

There is talk of a way out for the of Dave Jones contract and there is a belief that there could be a breach of contract.


My guess would be talking to other teams.

If anyone at the club should be sacked for breach of contract it should be whoever it is who keeps supplying Carl with all of this inside information.

Absolutely disgusting behavior by chops if true. WTF is going on down at the CCS , no leadership? . I am rapidly falling out of love with the beautiful game. Seems to me that spending our hard earned money down the city is a complete waste of time and effort. Spoilt brat footballers make me sick. Spend your money and precious time on the ones that really matter in life, your family...

It is draining as a fan to sit and watch the demise of another seasons chances

makes it worse with the on/off field antics of "professional football players" being reported


Ive said it before and i stick to PRP with these players - play shit get docked!


DJ looks like he has eve less soul/heart for input into the team ( if thats possible!!!)


Carl cheers for the update :ayatollah:

Come on. You don't make their sort of money by being gutless! I would say they already have a new manager lined up but they can't sack dave with 9 games to go, they are pushing for everyone to unite and that would go against what they are trying to promote at the moment :ayatollah:

Dave jones has had his time, you'll see!

Evening Dave.

Actually you can't be Dave Jones as your name is "Citysince1964"

Dave Jones has never been City.

I'm not at all surprised about the Chopra news. A friend of mine (who knows him) has told me some awful stories about his after hours antics.
Dont know about anyone elses opinions, but I think Jay Bothroyd needs the biggest kick up the arse at the moment. Dont get me wrong, I think he's one of the most talented players in this division, but all that talent is wasted if he only gives us about 20% effort. Come on Jay, the world is your oyster, but you have to work for it. If things dont go your way at the start, its not good enough to have a strop and sulk for the rest of the game. Chase things down, make runs into spaces, show some willing and it will be appreciated.

The team seem to have lost their passion, the fire in the belly! Gutted to say that though at this stage of the season :(

cheers carl.
firstly glad to hear that all fans behaviour at palace was impecable :angel13:
chops behaviour not quite so angelic.
as for mr jones, naughty boy..... ;)

WE WILL get a positive result at millwall, and the good times will roll, otherwise it could be an intresting 2 week international break :ayatollah:

Re: STICKY : " TUESDAY 15th MARCH 2011 UPDATE "

Wed Mar 16, 2011 1:16 am

VERY enlightening update, Carl....thanks as ever :ayatollah:

Disappointed as anyone to see another 'role model' (Chopra) letting the side down. Doesn't matter what his excuse was, or how he was at kick-off, he still left himself open for criticism and accusations of not caring (which I personally doubt, as he is as desperate as anyone to get out of this league). Let's put it down to bad judgement....this time only, eh??

Not bothered that Naylor has fallen out with DJ, although I appreciate your thoughts on his (Naylor's) frustration at being left out of the side. Should have happened earlier IMO and (hopefully) it'll mean he departs in the summer to pastures new....

Recker Ridsdale (yes, I know it's spelt with a 'W' before the literates start....but it fits better :lol: ) off to Oldham?? Another team doomed....which gave me a thought:

ANY CHANCE WE CAN GET HIM A PLACE ON THE QPR BOARD???? They'd never go up....!!!! :lol: :lol:

Also, great news that the Malaysians are looking at our long-term strategy. Sort of gives confidence, even in these nervous weeks prior to the end of the season

Thanks again, Carl

Great and imformative update as ever Carl , thanks . Maybe Bellamy needs to start showing his leadership on the pitch too and Hudson at the back needs to be organization the back 4 and keeper . Chopra is self destructing his career at CCFC's expense and if DJ stays on in the summer then Im afraid he needs to get rid of him ........ even on a freebie !! :ayatollah:

Quite.

If we went down the route of only having "loyal" fans, we'd be non-League and skint.

Fans who turn up for a few games may well turn out regularly. They also provide additional income over and above that received from "loyal" fans.

Too right nerd, let's be fair, we've spent the best part of the last 20-30 years with only Loyal Fans, and where have we been for the very vast majority of that time?

It's a fact of life that some people can't afford to turn up to every game, and some people just like to turn up to the games they want. There's nothing anyone can do about that but I'll be fucked if I'm about to turn down their money.

Have to agree on this one, the more fans who come to the stadium the better, i welcome them with open arms! If we are ever going to be a big club we need to attract as many people as possible and encourage them to sing and chant as loudly as they can. If we dont want to attract new fans and get higher attendances then we may as well pack up shop now! At the same time I think the club has to pull its finger out and ensure that the loyal fan isnt alienated and perhaps they should be offered more rewards (I appreciate that you do get 10% discount for being an ambassador). If we can attract new fans and keep the old loyal fans happy and well looked after that we can really push on!

The club better watch out, or it could start alienating this loyal fans, without which there would not be a club in the first place.

Disgraceful.

Good update Carl.
