I no longer are a member of the Prediction League, but have a very good record and predict
Newport 1 Scunny 0, the team will hold their own for the first hour, then pack the defence with the keeper and nine others, which will result in Newport taking full control till the end.Theywill run out of energy as usual, but will take 0-1 defeat as being a good result, even though it will take their brilliant record to just ONE WIN IN THE LAST TWENTY MATCHES.
Cox cannot understand why we lost as he monitored very good training sessions during the week, will will now sit holding the other 23 teams up, but the manager and his brains trust team of coaches will still be in charge on Monday, they must hold one record as keeping his job even though his team have the worst record for a manager by any ever team, but he still retains the fans respect for being a nice man ha ha!

Cliff—–I did not say that you wanted Neil Cox as manager, what I was saying is that although I have never spoken to the guy, people including yourself keep on saying that he is a very nice man, which is probably so, but he will never make a football league manager, but if Neil is a laugh a minute type, he shoul;dn’t be in his present job, his previous background is assistant manager of a non-league team, and he has proved week after week that he hasn’t got a clue on how to change things!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!, and it doesn’t help having those other clouwns as his assistants.
Either they all go, or it is non-league football or bankcrupsy for Scunthorpe United, and in my opinion Mr Swann would welcome that now that he owns the clubs land.
I don’t understand after going in at halftime why a team comes out for the second half and seems worse than the first half.Normally we all know that after the managers instructions they usually get better ????

None of our anger should be directed towards the management/players. Cox is a decent bloke who will be hurting as much as us; he appears well out of his depth but that’s not his fault. Nor the players who are clearly trying, but again, just not league standard.
A protest has to be a United from amongst the little supporters there are left. Organised for a certain time and promoted by those with a decent reach on social media The iron bru podcast, Iron trust, max bell etc. Momentum will build if it appears enough are interested.
Personally, I’ve had enough of the laughing stock we’ve become. A non league stint will hurt but it’s always inevitable when you are one of the smaller clubs in the football league, I can live with that. I can’t stand the fact we’ve had our assets stripped for a debt incurred by an egomaniacs spending spree.
SWANN OUT

Watch us die like Chesterfield, Grimsby, Southend, Notts County, Wrexham, Stockport, Torquay etc?
If you don’t like the English football pyramid go support a franchise league.

Yeah a protest will really help the players win won’t it.
You lot really are thick as…

He hasn’t been going so not sure he’ll even know about it.
Also what do you expect to happen? Swann sell up and the players turn into Messi?
What is it with everyone in society wanting a reason to protest? Grow up.

Don’t you read the official club web page?. They tell you all you want to know on there. When you say about Swann left or leaving is it the same kind of announcement they did when Elvis left the building. I am having a Chinese tonight hope it’s not them that’s taking over i just think they should stick to what they do best.

Wednesday would be a good day to get rid, though I do think it would be hard to put one Cox out. For god’s sake give the man a break he’s just lost his father.

The new Barnet manager was today sacked after 7 matches because of poor results, whilst our lot have now had 50 matches last season, and 10 matches this season, but still keep aimlessly plod along at the foot of league 2, when, when, when will they get the call to visit the Chairmans office for a short talk and their P45s ????

But it was reported that the team trained really well during the week, maybe it would be better if training ended on a Wednesday, and resumed on a Saturday, they may just see the 90 mins out.

Just feeling happy driving along from Donny, and then it was announced on Humberside that
Alex Definitely Kenyon would be assisting the comentry of the Carlisle v Scunny match today.
Nearly crashed the car when finding that my afternoon was going to be spoilt, the other guy opened the show by stating that “it was very hot and sweaty in the press box and then said he thought it would be very draining in playing in this heat, what do you think Alex?”You guessed the answer “YES DEFINITELY”. So just two words in and the dreaded Definitely came to fore.
Well its all happening, my son just rang me and said Scuuny were 1-0 up, yes DEFINITELY 1-0 up!!

What do you mean Awaywego? BS has never mentioned in a post he has stopped attending matches.

With Manny back on Saturday and a much more solid back “five” a win will stop a lot of this critism a loss is likely to intensify it. Still not sure how we will score a goal though unless we are fortunate enough to get a penalty.

Scunthorpe United will play at Glanford Park or equivalent new build for the next 99years?

Do you mean 3 years ago?
Of course the last few seasons have been tough, what did you expect? We’ve had to let our high earners go to fit a sustainable model that so many of you wanted.
As for this season, we’re 7 games into it. Maybe people should try turning up and getting behind the team, it might have a positive impact on their performances!
How do those not attending think they are helping the TEAM?
All I want is for people to go and support the team rather than making petty excuses for not going i.e tatty flags, dirty seats, drinks in plastic glasses etc.
Yes the team isn’t the best at present but I wonder how they’d react to positive crowd getting behind them.

We are second from bottom, simply because Oldham are actually worse than us, despite a few fans think that things will be ok, our only chance of staying up is if another team get problems as well. It is very early in the season, but once a team starts to fall behind the rest, it really takes some getting out, and we do not appear to have the playing squad or the right type of club management, but presently things look grim, and there has been nothing done to suggest that anything will get better.
I was talking to another three ex-season ticket holders that have sat near me for 13 years, and we all expressed our feelings that the SUFC have not made any contact with any o us to ask why we no longer attend. We all thought it was strange that the club was just happy to lose us regulars without an e-mail or a little note to request if they could do anything to change our minds.

Bartonscorpion, the club put a statement out 22 hours ago, well before your post “looking” for the sacking of the manager. Sometimes you just have to admit you got it wrong
