Re: Danny Cowley

Unfortunately, going by his Colchester post matches, he's still over complicating things. They're quite difficult to listen to. After DC left us Cullen paid a great tribute to him and how he did a lot for the community side of the club and engaging the supporters. Can't underestimate that. I really...

Re: Danny Cowley

The only other show I'm aware him being in was Red Dwarf. Yes, he was Lister. Apparently he was also a good impersonator and done several of the voices on Spitting Images. He seems to have withdrawn from front line comedy basically to shun the 'limelight'. He now earns a living as an after dinner s...

Re: Danny Cowley

I think I agree with all of that. Man management and getting the best of your players is a massive part and I’m not sure being couched by Mr Brittas is conducive to that lol. Found this clip. This is perfect. Michael the American 🤣 https://youtu.be/3i9VLrHcBVI?si=S7ISDXVlUhgiYKuN I used to love tha...

Re: Danny Cowley

I always thought he was a decent hard working bloke but over complicated the game of football. I think he made it more technical than it really is. However, this interview shows him to be a real gent. I do believe he can take some credit for our promotion because many of the players involved this la...

Re: Transfer Rumours Championship Season

You are probably right and we won't go down that line, not for a while anyway. I suppose the idea of these academies is to produce players for their first teams. Players that are not quite good enough probably drop down the leagues, the better ones to the Championship. Those players would command a ...

Re: Sean Raggett

IMHO he is still a decent CB at L1 level and I’d be surprised to see him drop down to L2, maybe he would given his history and relationship with the Cowleys. Or Gillingham, his hometown club. I think he will get loads of offers but I think he may well want to stay relatively local to here or back t...

Re: Sean Raggett

Most managers want their own men in the team and generally replace their predecessor's incumbants over time. In our case the players from the Cowley era have been replaced by better players. Presently I can only think of Colby Bishop as the only regular surviving player from the previous era, but h...

Re: Transfer Rumours Championship Season

Chris Conn-Clarke - 22yo striker from Altrincham. Scored 23 goals last season for the no. 10 position. I think the biggest problem with bringing in players from non league is our current set up. Like most clubs that have come from where we have is that we don't have a second, or under 21, side. Thi...

Re: Sean Raggett

I wasn't aware of that. Thanks 👍 For some reason I always thought he was Pompey born and bred. No idea why I felt that tbh. He was amused with the "Raggett for England" chant as he said it would have been Ireland. He is Kent born but his father was born in Cork. His boyhood dream was turn...

Re: Sean Raggett

Deffo agree with likening him to Linvoy. Unsung hero - never complains and always happy to put a shift in. :) Apparently he has complained about being dropped. Again apparently he wasn't happy about being left out against Lincoln and also automatically making way for McIntyre. On both counts quite ...

Re: Sean Raggett

Yeah, totally agree. The character he's shown (not to mention his performance levels) will make him a very attractive signing to almost anyone in League One next season. Probably for the best that he leaves this summer on a high than end up being fourth or fifth choice centre back next season and d...
