1) Newly established fake accounts on social media making threats – Is this a first for Scunthorpe? When did it start and did it coincide with anything else? Is it solely targeted towards critics? Is the aim to silence those critics or to paint Hilton in a bad light? Who started using words like toxic and divided to describe the fanbase or phrases like club killers? We know similar went off at Bury.
A lot of these accounts have now been deleted but the screenshots haven’t.
2) Club chairmen on social media – Name me a football club chairman who interacts with fans on social media in the way Hilton did and in the style he did. Did anything positive come of it?
3) Will the recent conduct of some dissipate or continue and what impact is it likely to have on your club in the future?
4) Simon Elliott – I see he’s championing the Football Association’s Fit & Proper test on social media, does he not read the press?
5) The document is still being hosted, why? Hilton made reference to his good standing in a recent interview, surely his professional advisors should have had this pulled down before now with action pending against the author and publisher?
My overriding thought is that your club deserves better and some of the recent ongoings are questionable and leave a lot to be desired.
