Our only wins on the road this season have been on artificial pitches, so not really sure what the problem is here.
Plus it’s a moot point for Tuesday night, Boston play on grass.
Still think we would have stayed up in League 1 if Swanny didn’t pull the trigger on McCall when he did. 7 games and only 2 points later under Dawson and down we went with a whimper. Probably one of the biggest contributors to us being where we are today.

I struggle to get to that many games due to living 210 miles away, really hoping they make this club lottery available online to us out-of-towners!

The four changes made a massive difference. Smith, Clunan, Law and Ogle were all excellent!
Confirmed next two home games will be played at GP whilst a deal for the stadium is still in the works.

Ike Ugbo has certainly had an interesting career since pulling on the claret and blue. Has scored goals in the Netherlands, the Belgian top flight, the French top flight, the Championship this season for Cardiff and has a few caps for Canada. I think our loanees’ performances since that League 1 relegation season says more about us than their actual talents!
Scales is one of our better players, definitely worse in midfield without him. Never stops running, decent on the ball and doesn’t shy away from challenges. Couple of games he’s been the best player on the pitch!

This is why I thought Simon should have apologised. There will be grievances from some quarters after he derided fans. Like I have said, unity goes both ways. Elliott needs to make amends. I am happy for him to do so, but understand some will be irritated after his conduct.
Isn’t him helping to pull people together, those people with a real passion for the Iron, to literally save the club from the grasps of an irrational fraudster making enough amends?
We’ve still got a club to watch and support and he’s part of the reason why. That’s enough making amends for me.
That consideration is giving Swann far too much credit for which he deserves none. Don’t forget he stole the ground because of his mismanagement (and his mismanagement only) and was quite happy to let us be wound up whilst keeping the stadium firmly in Coolsilks hands.
Done deal.
What sort of business stops paying their bills whenever a negative article crops up in the press!? He’s a bloody comedian as well as a convicted fraudster!

September 19, 2023 at 12:36 pm in reply to: 14/09/23 – County Court Judgement – £2,091.00 – Case No. 434MC529 #272684IPM…were these the security company illegally hand-cuffing fans last season?
We didn’t fill the bench AA we don’t have a second 11.
We ain’t got 22 fit players?
All out on loan or injured then?Where’s Cribb? Good enough to play in L2 two years ago, now not good enough for the bench in a NLN team. Can’t have regressed that much surely. Is he injured? Has he gone?
Went to Grimsby a while ago.

Don’t think someone should be making YouTube videos if they feel the need to respond with a bespoke video every time somebody makes a negative comment! Emotionally fragile individuals should probably stay away from putting themselves in the firing line on social media…it’s like the wild west out there, especially when paired with the tribalism and toxicity between rival football fans.

For those of us currently roaming around Iceland (the country that is) why was it actually abandoned??
Disagree. The freeze frame at the actual moment of contact of the through ball,the runner is clearly offside ( not even just!) We were virtually in line and all around us knew he was offside. No blame for Ogle.
Clearly it’s time to pay Specsavers a visit.
Don’t know how to post images on here but if you freeze frame the video at the point the SS player makes the pass, he’s miles onside!! Poor from Ogle.

Because he was crap and barely showed an ounce of interest.

Out on loan for the season at Southport. Scored the winner in their 1-0 win vs Hereford on the weekend.
…as we really lost 2 points on Saturday due to the ref and the red card
I’d put Fitzsimmons above those two. No way that 1st goal should be getting past him!

Not surprised we’ve gone for someone with the injuries to Beestin, Law, Clunan and Roberts. Hopefully he can hit the ground running!
Where’s he getting that nonsense from? From the horse’s mouth in the Mirror article by Aidan McCartney:
“I will pay him £10k a month in rent, which is double what the rent currently is while it goes through the lawyers.”
Spot on review of the game Cliff. Looking forward to seeing a replay of Denton’s goal…one of those you knew was flying in as soon as it left his foot!

We’ve been shocking since scoring, should be 1-1 with Rushall missing pretty much an open goal. Need to pick it up in the 2nd half for sure! UTI
Was probably too busy sat in its Mum’s basement searching for CCJ’s against Scunthorpe United F.C.
Dawson, is a Knight, is a lawyer, is on the board. Is he any good though?
Continued:
“You wouldn’t believe what we have to provide. They forced us to put 8 stewards in the Mortz stand and have 52 in total against Burton when the Mortz stand was closed and we had 1200 fans with only 32 away. If we don’t do what they say they pull the safety certificate and force us to play behind closed doors. My patience has ran out with the authority regarding these issues and it will be sorted very quickly. They can’t insist we provide as many stewards for Peterborough sports as we did against Newcastle in the championship with 9000 in and 3000 away.
Over 50 stewards today.Yes if this insist on police we have to do as they say. £21,000 was spent on stewards and policing last season at home to Oldham causing the club to literally lose money on a home fixture. How does a club stay sustainable or compete when your own local authority are insisting on such measures”

Hilton/White has confirmed we’re currently under restrictions from SAG. Taken from FB:
“We are governed by a safety certificate issued by the council which stipulates the amount of stewards and medical staff for each stand. Due to the levels of stewarding available and allocated to the DRE stand along with a large number of sales before kick off we reached the stands capacity due to the amount of stewards. We had no alternative but to offer a handful of supporters buying last minute tickets an alternate area to watch the game. Tickets are always subject to availability and I cannot risk the clubs safety certificate or being imposed with sanctions including financial. Supporters are advised to get tickets early and purchase group tickets together.
We cannot relocate stewards leaving other areas short on match day as risk assessments have to be signed off prior to match day. It was a handful of late entries only that were affected
My apologies for any inconvenience but due to a shortage of paid stewards we have to outsource extra security costing the club far more to satisfy the council. I am insistent that the local authorities and SAGS demands of our club are ludicrous and haven’t changed since the championship days. We are meeting with SAG again this week in they hope they start to understand the level we are at.
I’m hopeful that the ridiculous requirements being insisted upon by SAG that are financially crippling our club are amended imminently. There seems to be no logic or common sense.
Anybody with a ticket should have been allowed entry. Clearly my staff are falling foul of the complicated issues being forced upon us by the authority. It will stop you have my word.”

Rumour on the terrace at Tamworth was that Guiseley is the stadium fallback option, not Gainsborough.
One of our better players in pre-season, starts first game last week then gets shipped out on loan to a rival? Sorry can’t see that happening.
Maybe he’s gotten mixed up with Poulter going to Gainsborough.
