It’s only inevitable that the site will be negative after years of crumbling results and finances under Swann bringing us to the depths of the second tier of non-league, followed by the drama and uncertain nature of Hilton.

For what it’s worth, I can see why this is a drain, but on the positive side, look at the nature of the discussion here. There is a lot more thoughtful discussion than that Facebook group, it’s less censorious, and there’s more respect for other opinions in general.

I realise this last week has been high octane, but I will do my part in apologising for letting my anger at Hilton show maybe a bit too much. I realise there’s no point now and just hope the whole situation gets sorted, but I still fear the worst.

I would just like to say that there is a core of good posters, who make interesting points from all angles, here. Cassidy’s Tash, JustIron, DeereyMe, Iron-Awe, Ironawe, Les, Cliff Byrne’s Right Peg, MK Iron, IronIronIron, TheJuryeffsOut, 64, MistertonMick, NI, ApatheticApologists, Interested Bystander*, ironfromafar etc. No particular order, and I have probably missed some (so don’t feel offended if missed out), but all have contributed with interesting points over the years and still do. And, of course, SST for keeping this site going.

*I know some may disagree, but I value openness and honesty, so his work has been valuable, even if repetitive for some.

Great post.
