CCC - new manager and stuff

 

So Mick's West Ham had their massive win, then they had a couple of defeat's to Amy and Lyn. Got rid of their manager and appointed Scott Parker (Yes m'Lady) and despite Jan's Cardiff leading 3-0 they got it back to 3-3 away from home so I guess he does a good half time team talk.


Something about Wrexham fined for illegal player - not looked into that and a few random wins for teams - but not for Scott!!

Below are scores and the doors and money on the bill

CCC - a few games in after the international break

 

The international break had 4 matches - a defeat to Spain then defeated Czech Republic twice, a 7-0 demolition of Croatia and Harry Kane equaling the number of England Caps with Peter Shilton.

But back to the real thing...

Jamie Vardy has signed for Burnley and scored a goal in his 5 appearances so far which has helped them rise up the table (slightly). Ted went to Lincoln and saw his Lincoln team down to 9 men and let 6 goals in but as Ted is secretly a West Ham fan (ooh you didn't know that!!) he was quite happy with the result.

Neil's Swansea keep winning and Scott's Preston North End keep losing.  A tidy sum for Scott to pay. I'm not sure he has been that far down the table before!


ps who can spot this week's typo?

CCC update as we hit the international break

 Hi all,

Time for the international break. Some teams will be happy with a break whilst others have the momentum with them. No team has an unbeaten record in tact by Neil's Swansea are on top whilst Anna continues to cling on to the bottom of the table.

In other news....

Chris's Birmingham are taking bricks from the local hospital to help build their stadium

Jan's Cardiff player Krystian Bielik has been charged by the FA following the assault on a young Pompey fan not that his owner would know as he hasn't been to watch a match in 1,000 days

Amy's Southampton manager Eckert has asked for forgiveness as he awaits the verdict on him plotting Spygate last season

Dave's Wrexham owners have bought the local pub 'The Turf' located next to the ground, presumably ensuring fans can still get a pint

Ted's Lincoln now have a 15 game streak of winning midweek matches. Next up for them midweek is West Ham on 14th October - enjoy that one Ted



and a final thing - feel free to share your photos of you with random fans of Championship teams - not at a footie match. Here is a Lincoln fan I found in Salcombe!

CCC - latest update

 no time for a table ..

just to say 

Mick's West Ham was top and now Lyn's West Brom is top.

I thought they would both appreciate a mention as they were much further down at the start and not just alphabetically.

Neil, Paula and Rob are in hot pursuit.

Scott has the bottom spot with Anna not far above.  More in a week or so

after match day 5 25/26

 What a funny old game football is and so unpredictable.

Bottom of the table Sue's Stoke beat top of the table Rob's Charlton 4-0 saving Sue about £32. (Sue you don't have to save so much this week). Ted's Lincoln did a fine job of drawing with Amy's Southampton and Kelly's Bristol City won again to leave Anna's Burnley firmly at the bottom.  But it is early days.

Some teams have mid week matches this week whilst others are in some sort of cup tournament that those who treasure the CCC the most opted out of at the first opportunity.

Don't forget now is a great time to look on ebay for the all important end of season shirt. We need more actual shirts for the curry photo. :-)

Here is the latest table

Three matches in.... 2026/27

 Those in the know will know why I am posting this now, before tonight's matches....

The weekend started with Chris' Birmingham beating Dave's Wrexham, Ted's Lincoln (favourites for the drop) beat Dan's Bolton to help his rise up the table and Kelly's Bristol City beat my Portsmouth for the umpteenth time. Rob's Charlton  beat Scott's Preston to take top spot and put Scott second from bottom, Lee's Watford diplomatically drew 1-1 with Mick's West Ham (kindly scored an own goal as Mick wasn't capable of scoring any of his own).  Once again Amy's Southampton conceded the first goal to Sharon's Millwall who had been top and then the floodgates opened and Amy's team scored 5 to take them out of the relegation zone.

So here is the table now before hopefully Chris' team will continue their winning streak and beat Amy :-).

Here is the all important table, although nothing like it will be in 8 months time :-)

Table after two matches - August 2026

 Of course I would post this with Southampton still on minus points, but their visitors Stoke (Sue) fell apart at the end of the match letting Southampton score in 89th minute, Stoke had a player sent of 90+3 and Southampton scored the resulting penalty, so the home team won 3-1 and took 3 points.  This has massively reduced Amy's debt.

At the top only 3 teams remain unbeaten and in goal difference order it is Sharon, Lyn and Rob. (Of course if this was the end of the season Lyn and Rob would be paying 1p each. 

Kelly was keen to let us know that there were more red cards and for her team, so Kate's Norwich as well as Sue's Stoke have now accumulated a red card each. Jon's Derby have the most yellow's with 8!

So here is the all important table for now, next CCC matches on Friday and Saturday
