I don’t think we’ll ever achieve a string of results to match that - but I’d settle for us playing some more exciting football. The only way we could ever achieve what the big 6 do is to spend spend spend....when I read that Man City are preparing bids for Messi Haaland and 2 other 30million + players, Livarpool ready to buy 50 Million pound + players, Man Utd ready to buy anyone with a price tag of 30million+ what chance does little old CPFC have against that? Sooner these filthy rich teams form their own European league the better!

Whilst I agree with you sentiments, surely you'd miss the chance to give these big time charlies a bloody nose every now n then. Kids,tired of being bothered by your pesky parents? Then leave home, get a job & pay your own bills, while you still know everything.

With no spectators, probably no corporate events and much reduced advertising one wonders how FFP will affect them as surely they must be racking up huge losses

You might want to remind yourself that this morphed into the "team of the eighties" - which people still use to mock us with. Short lived, relegated and followed by an awful (and much longer) low period in our history. This is the classic careful-what-you-wish-for scenario.

All true Silvertop no argument - and all the megabucks required comments, of course, are also true. But we can at least hope that building a talented team of peripheral players from the big boys, coupled with some talented youngsters (hopefully from our acadamy) and of course the right Manager - could bring some joy. For me the starting point is the right manager for the next period - supplemented by the full support of the club.

Things will eventually improve but not for a while. We currently appear to be in an an extended holding pattern until covid passes and the fruits of the academy bring to trickle up.

Looks like Howe is off to Celtic and reading the article, I bet it was us he turned down: 'The 43-year-old knocked back the vacant Blades position and one other top-flight side, currently with a manager in position.' [Link]

[Link] For Howe it makes sense he will probably spend a few years there hoovering up the trophies that Rangers don't win then like Rodgers back to the PL to a bigger club than Palace or the England job. It might also explain the rumours in the last few days that Dyche is our first choice. Edited by Badger11 (01 Apr 2021 7.20pm) One more point

Originally posted by OldFella Bullet dodged. I really believe that. I agree! In my view he is not tested at premiership level. He was a favourite there but took the chance to leave when he could (insulting Palace on the way) and then ran back to Hampshire when things did not work out for him. He might have taken Bournemouth up but equally he took them back down again. I remain otherwise neutral as to future managers - unless it is Rafa of course! Always remembering walking from the Holmesdale to the Whitehorse end at half time!

In his first spell at Bournemouth,Howe was working under a transfer embargo but still managed to get the club promoted to 'League One'. He was working under constraints when a number of clubs approached Bournemouth for his services and he left for Burnley. He left Burnley for personal reasons following the sudden death of his mother.
