i think it's great that we can go through our team and have several options as outfield captains.....it's something we haven't had the luxury of in recent years. I wouldn't choose Jaidi though, i like captains to be in the midfield - whether you're attacking or defending, they'll always be involved.

What Pard's (i assume you ment him, rather than curbs ) elluded too in the forum is that he'd like a ''90mins'' captain, and would keep Kelvin as the club captain. He wanted someone closer to the game during matches, and in his words...''we needed someone to control wayne, when he threw someone to the ground again''

Surley has to be hammond. has been captain at all his clubs (ok, only 2 - but colchester & brighton) and plays in a way that leads the team. only logical choice imo.

Rudi Skacel may be on his way there though http://boards.footymad.net/forum.php?tno=402&fid=17&sty=2&act=1&mid=2124482875

carlisle 1-1 skates

lol @ portsmouth. ahhhhh they're ****ed. but do we want Carlisle to have a confidence boosting win......or a morale sapping thrashing with red cards and a few knocks ahead of Saturday?

I loved Nicola's comment about Pompey in that piece too.... (something along the lines of...) ''well, Portsmouth are the favorites for it - Whenever they get their act together!'' good man... (they wont btw)

Nicola's other half i believe. Jammy sod.

For me, the most revealing thing that came out from tonight, is how it seems Fry and BT dealt with the administration process. Cortese didn't speak highly of them at all, he even went as far as saying that it didn't seem that they wanted them - they were being pushed away and could have walked. I must admit, it did seem that Fry did favor Pinnacle - mainly due to the MLT factor i guess, as he knew that would be a popular buzz around the city. But by god, im glad they didn't walk away. Show's they're dedicated at least!

When did we actually sign Saville? I didn't know we had him untill a couple of months ago He's slipped under the raydar to say the least.

.

Pards came across brilliantly tonight. He speaks so much sense it's untrue. - it's weird, not used to it!

Pace in the team...talking about Mclaggon, he's looking forward to seeing him play. Still believes we're lacking pace, would like 1 or 2 more players with ''electric'' pace. Need to get lads out before bringing them in.

Murty update..... His pay structure is designed around playing time, as we knew about his fitness and injury history. States we're missing Murts, didn't give an update on how long - but he's nagging him to get fit.

that was brilliant lol

Kelvin is the best captain Pard's has experienced as a manager. Kelvin sorts out the systems (discipline etc) - arranges days out etc Kelvin will remain captain as long as pard's is here.

lol @ this bloke ''big club mentality'' ''yeovil were looking on in ore'' ''buy us the team and we'll pack the stadium'' weird speech.

Looking seriously at bid for world cup 2018 host city. in hands of City council at the moment. We've made the contact and wheels have been put in motion.

How did we get Papa? Papa was introduced to Pards through Nicola Cortese and an Agent. Pard's hasn't been aware of him - but he was checked out via sources and connections and all feedback was positive and stated that the player was above (Ability wise) the level we're at.

Do we have the option to buy trotman? He cannot give us a striaght answer...would be unfair on PNE, does sound that Pards is keen.

Pard's doesn't think that a DOF would be a bad thing at the club. He understands the logic of one, and he'd be prepared to work with one. Doesn't sound like it's a complete priority for NC at the mo though.

Nicola out!

Is it debt free? ''It's one of the few English clubs that is currently completely debt free''

Nicola said that it didn't seem like the administrators wanted them they kept pushing the swiss away and putting obstacles in the way.

Sounds like Fry ****ed about. They had the 500k ready to go in late may. All bank transfers agreed - but Fry called them and said that he'd given ''Pinaccle'' the exclusivity.
