Negativity on here

Thu Mar 01, 2012 7:08 pm

Unbelievable from some people complaining about finances, lack of signings etc..

Get real-we have just played at Wembley and did not lose over 120 minutes against one of the top 6 teams in Premier League. Our players gave as good a performance and certainly the bravest that i have witnessed in over 30 years of following CCFC. We only lost out to a lottery.

Regarding lack of signings-yes we need a couple of players but our current squad has got us into top 6 and to Wembley. We have a fantastic young manager and some superb players with a great academy set up. We have 19000 season ticket holders and many have renewed for next season.

We have big debts which are hampering us but our owners are sensible and wont risking adding to the Ridsdale debt. If rumours are true then the new cypriot (?) businessman is worth a fair few quid and with a bit of luck he can put a few quid in and sort out Langston (maybe he is the mystery Langston).

Now is the time for us fans to pull together, support the boys and stop criticising those who tell the truth (the abuse that Carl has had for some of his updates is ridiculous). We have 14 cup finals and I know that Malky can fire up our squad and take us into the play offs (if not higher).

The future is bright, the future is blue.

Have you been on the happy pills?

There are serious questions that need answering as I've nearly had my heart ripped out several times in recent seasons following The City and I am fearfull that if this goes tits-up we'll be back in square 1.

Yes, we had a great day out last weekend, but no-one remembers losers. Portsmouth's troubles are a warning to us all that chasing the dream (which we all are still doing in the Championship, City being the biggest culprits) is a very risky business.

Not been on happy pills for years.

The only people to blame for finances are jones and ridsdale. The only person to blame for us not already being in the prem is jones.

No one remembers the losers-in many finals yes but last sunday will go down in carling cup folklore-living in England I have had so many people praising our gallant performance.

Our board is here to stay and are major debt is unsecured.

2000 v bury on a freezing Tuesday night under Durban was my most depressing game. 0-0 draw and low crowd watching shit football just a few years after Len Ashurst's team with the Bennett brothers, Hemmerman etc....

I don't get some people can moan about the debt being to high them moan about lack I transfer :shock:

It makes no sense at all, unless clubs are going to pay US to sign new players it makes no sense at all.

correct mate.whatever team you follow we all want a team to watch.debt needs to be cut in order to do that.that means less on transfers.we,ve sold loads at blues and are still in with a shout of going up.no the bad years were standing on the kop with crumbling concrete under your feet.iv enjoyed the football more this year than any year since barry fry.your club are doing you proud on the pitch and you have made massive progress off it.be positive and trust in m.m.considering he hasn,t had much dosh and got you to wembley and a play off spot i,d say your in good hands.

Hopefully our teams will meet at Wembley in May. I'd say our managers/teams deserve it at the very least if not automatics.

i hope we go straight up.i,d be more than happy if you came up with us.i,d say given the conditions c.h and m.m have had to deal with compared to the other managers in the top 8 they both deserve minimum of a p/o place.if pompey go bust the league will change.if it happened tomorrow we drop 1 to 6th ,you would be 8th.west ham down to 3rd.mad division .
im loving it though
