What do you think rodney walker has seen in the new fbt football programme
A.I think he has seen what chris Turner and Chesterfield football club have seen.

So how come chris turner stood down and cfc have done everything to distance themselves.

I think Biggs is right that some where disappointed when the investment came about...........

I was one of em, but it wasn't the investment I was disappointed with.....it was the fact that 1) Sutcliffe then appears to get off scott free and 2) he incredibly retains his position.

That Mr Biggs is what the 'minority' is upset about.

What I find so pathetic about the interview is that as a journalist Mr Biggs has a job to do. In that interview he did not do it.

What was the erm erm erm blah blah bit about what debt Cat 3 & 4 Academies accumulate?
The Development School was not, and never has been an Academy rated or categorised school. It was just a football coaching school that parents paid for and that's a fact.

So to save inflicting Sutcliffe's stomach churning denial, spin and hubris on myself, is it fair to say this is just a so-called journalist offering a sympathetic platform to the mate of a mate?

Be interesting to see if this backfires. I wonder if more folk might appear, perhaps from his time at Rotherham, wanting answers to questions Biggs refused to ask...

Two observations.

First, a group of Sutcliffe's lads, usually accompanied by the former non league player, no longer appear in block W7 of the West Stand on matchdays.

I'm guessing that's due to exposure on here, just as I'm guessing he'll tell those young men they're somehow unwelcome rather than blame his own long term behaviour.

Second the firm bailing out his 'troubled' and 'controversial' enterprise have a large advertising board on the East Stand.

Income for CFC or a deal in return for the alleged forty/sixty grand of benefits PPP have supposedly bestowed on the Club?

I doubt we'll ever know.

Club Taxi's (Soon to change} has 19,000 customers per week.

Does that figure include the number of customers Club's new Owners, City Taxis, currently have or just the old Club Taxis?

Either way, that number will drop if customers keep having complaints of drivers not knowing the area and asking for post codes continually.

This is interesting:

http://www.chesterfi...rs-3349519.aspx

potentially £10k per club per season, for 3 seasons, if they regulary give home grown U21's a place in their starting line ups.

sounds like bribery to me!

Also totally at odds with our clubs "visionary" (according to Alan Biggs) plan to attract foreign youth through "our" international academy ...

Regarding the up and coming youngsters.
Has anybody else noticed the CFC youngsters pre-home games, during the warm-up's and also when acting as ball boys during the games? If I was the coach I would give one or two of them a kick up the backside and tell them to take their hands out of their pockets and pull their shoulders back. I even saw one checking his mobile. That sort of body language and especially in front of the home fans, is just shocking for someone who wants to impress and get on in the club. One lad even jogged to get the ball during a recent home match with his hands still in his pockets.
Is this just bad attitude of a couple of individuals, or a further sign of the low moral within the club?

I get so frustrated at the ball boys. They sit in pairs not evenly spread out and are usually on their phones during the match. More often than not someone in the crowd gets the ball and the ball boys don't even move.
