    Don’t you think the fans who go are doing enough by just attending, to go week in week out its the players who should be supporting the fans.

    There’s 500 Mansfield fans in the stand opposite so it won’t look to bad + Ironawe.

    Lee got a nice little pun in his statement there, a few spewy clichés as well, guess your all convinced and won’t be protesting now?

    If they can sell them let them have them, I would have given Mansfield whole of the east stand.

    And don’t you think they will negotiate that, all depends on what both parties want of course, peppercorn rent but coolsilk keep the hospitality revenue. Or a fair rent and the new owner keeps to fund the team, sure there will be plenty more to negotiate but who knows.

    Alcys gone, he couldn’t except the mods deleting posts and threads, fair play to him on a point of principle. Sad to see him go I’m sure we all agree. Sure we all have that dilemma when it happens to oneself, but like Ironawe said to me you can’t beat them they are in control but way up the enjoyment you get from Bru to not being on it anymore, maybe Ironawe as a lot to answer for👍

    Why would a new owner be bothered whether it comes with the ground and real estate or not. If it comes with the ground you would expect to pay more for it,maybe not the £11 million debt it was written off for but certainly a few million. And for what if you can’t sell it?.

    But as a fan I can see Hill isn’t doing a very good job. Does anyone think they couldn’t have done any better than Hill?

    Not sure about that one if Hill as no faith in Jarvis over the other Cross up front. And we won’t know if he keeps playing Rory.

    “Keep” I would run it on a no debt basis, relying on tickets sales commercial and hospitality to live within the club’s means. Take a back seat and just keep quiet about anything else.

    Your right on being a fan and Swann is not Ironawe, but makes that more the case not to give the club away, he as no emotional connection like we have, maybe he would sell it for a pound if he could afford to, but the stories and they are only stories that I and others have heard he’s probably financially worse off than most of us. Even if he finishes the 5* hotel, where is it again oh yes Blackpool, would people with a 5* budget really want to go to bloody Blackpool I think not, to be fair he needs all the money he can lay his hands on.

    You would Ironawe, but I doubt whether your wife or family would let you do it, it’s oh so easy to spend or give away other peoples money.

    Well that’s a start. Grimsby are having an arguably good season and for last couple of months have been yo-yoing between 6th and 8th, so 12th will do for me to build on.

    NLI, sorry but I won’t be going, the players don’t deserve my attendance, though one of my grandsons has talked me into going to the last home game, a game which I hope all stayaways will attend if only to show prospective new owners there are fans out there given the right environment.

    Your right Deerey I did try at Harrogate and it was an abject failure as a protest. Now you can’t pin that on Swanny, Cox, or the players, they all tried their best for the fans to protest, but no fans were having none of it, if I was their shop steward I would have resigned I wouldn’t represent men who weren’t prepared to take action, and have trust and the resolve for the situation.

    Never done diplomacy Deerey, I thought you would have twigged that by now. Negotiate yes but never was diplomatic, it seemed to work for me.

    To your question Ironawe, if the ground is deemed an “asset of community value” it would make it harder, I believe the trust is trying to do that, anybody got an update? The council could also let it be known that planning permission would be refused for any other use which could put potential suitors off.

    Yes they were always behind me Deerey it came down to action, trust and resolve on both sides, which you need, unlike Scunny fans like you say who wouldn’t even walk out at 5-0 down at half time, dare say quite a few clapped the players off as well, have I mentioned that imo Scunny fans are the worse, Lets see how Saturdays protest goes I won’t hold my breath for a success either. Damp Squibb comes to mind.

    Don’t expect anything else from a woman, that explains the programmes can’t imagine many women collect them.
