I did say before it was the home fans I was referring to Deerey. Our away support in the main is fantastic a bit more rowdy the odd smoke bomb or two but mainly they get behind the team if they put the effort in. That is why I mainly go away.

Signed today.

[Awaywego]

Makes you wonder what was in Cox’s mind signing the dross he did but like you said he thought he new better.

[Awaywego]

Keep the faith?.

I am sick of people going on about the loan. And party’s that weren’t party’s.

[Awaywego]

Wow, can’t imagine what money they will be on, Lincoln wage bill for the last year was £5.1 million, seems like it isn’t just Swanny who overspent.

[Awaywego]

Good chance of only 1500 scunny fans there tonight IMO, but we’ll alright next year when Swann walks away and we get new owners, the fans will get behind the team and take 1200 away on a night match to Wales just like the cods.

[Awaywego]

No Loft tonight, they must have found him out already.

Yes Gimp I had heard they had improved the food at the ground, but £5-50p for 2 sausages in a bun is bloddy scandalous, ok it’s a brioche bun with roasted red onions sold by Pettis, nothing to do with your co owner is it? Of course it is, note like ripping the punters off.

[Awaywego]

Didn’t Swanny do the same purchasing the training ground next to the stadium for the team how many teams have a location like ours now, for all of Stockwoods comment’s all Grimsby have done at the moment is improve facilities at their training ground which is 8 miles away from the ground, a new training ground announcement was imminent in October, still no news and the latest statament says we’re in no rush. What infrastructure have they put in place Cliff?.

[Awaywego]

The talk on the train home from Mansfield included the last game of the season against Bristol rovers and maybe needing a point to stay up, I believe everyone now in that conversation would snap you hand off for that scenario.

[Awaywego]

Just goes to show how fickle football fans are wanting rid of the allams or Mike Ashley for that matter.

5800 against Bromley and they are still running at a significant loss according to their owner,yes they are investing time and money in the foundations of the club it is called Debt same as any other club, but if they can’t break even with 6000 crowds their foundations are on more doggy ground than ours, as for Wharton he left us with a manageable debt of £4 million and was prepared to put us into liquidation if a buyer was not forthcoming.

[Awaywego]

Your so wrong about building a new ground Mick whoever owned it, it wouldn’t be under discussion about turning it into housing being a new ground. The cods owners have put a new ground on the back burner for a least 5 years making their existence less secure, so much easier to let the club fold than if you had just built a new ground, with a debt that would be on the owner (swanny in our case) that would have consequences and an incentive to keep the club going which he doesn’t have now.

[Awaywego]

If he lives up to his name he should be alright.

Of course we will lose money this season, if we need 3000 to break even then it’s quite obvious we will run a debt up, but debt will only be 2-3 million against the the 13-14 million it would have been.

Newcastle don’t have said loan,and have all the money a club could want, yet couldn’t attract a top flight manager and at the moment can’t attract the players either, arguably we attracted a better manager in our situation,than they have with all their grubby money, so why anyone thinks paying off the loan would help is deluding themselves Imo.

[Awaywego]

What can I say that I haven’t said before? Bless him.

The evening telegraph is not relevant anymore, a once a week paper, you do realise that 99%? It can hardly keep up with news or promote, match reports at least 3 days after the event and if there’s 2 matches in a week even longer, back to 6 days and I’m in, it was always the place to announce funeral’s but lots don’t bother now because hardly anyone buys it and the once a week thing. The club put the news out on twitter, the club that has posted the most tweets by a football club anywhere in the world something we can all be proud of. We don’t need Max ( except as the fan he is) or the Evening telegraph.

[Awaywego]

Funny you should say that one of ours took cover behind the counter in the butcher’s and picked the meat clever up he said, he never went to another scunny game, it was really that bad wasn’t it, don’t recognize a JB but you sound like you were in the same pub away from the ground.

[Awaywego]

Graffiti from the Leicester game was still on the side of Ashton house 30 years later, a game I missed don’t know why, but was always told there were loads of Leicester here on the Friday and just hung around all night?.

[Awaywego]

Was you on the bus that lost its brakes coming down the hill into Macc Alcy?, Up against the kippax finest that day,3 buses from Linc’s road car so we had good numbers, ( no club buses back then) their end was a big grass bank if I remember correctly which we didn’t manage to take, first away game,bloody hell I was only 14 and I was hooked.

[Awaywego]

Now your asking Ironff, I will try and drag it out but I am not good with names, even with a clue of Alan the only one that comes to mind is Dent.

We felt lucky to get the half mile to the ground without to many injuries, well outnumbered, then again when weren’t we, on arriving outside the I met an old school friend who said will you hold my brother up I think he’s broke his leg, I of course obliged and he went full pelt into the Leicester fans with a scaffold pole retrieved from someone’s garden, nowt like brotherly love. It was bad wasn’t it, but what a day to remember for everyone.

[Awaywego]

Don’t know about Leicester game been called off, but yes they were Leicester fans 99%, they were all nicey nicey in the pub but has soon as we got outside all hell broke out.

[Awaywego]

Anyhow remember the battle of Nuneaton,scary happy days.
