    No room for attempts at humour any more then?
    Not much to write about at the moment is there?

    Don’t take one part of my post to suit your agenda, read the whole thing. I did admit to being cynical.
    Do you deny that this has happened previously?

    Club Stooges (as many as we can find) with approved questions
    1899 Members (one per member) – Priority window until Friday, May 12th at 4pm

    General sale (one per person) – Should any tickets remain, these will be available from 10am on Wednesday, May 17th.”

    Sorry for being a cynical b*****d, recent years have scarred me.

    Fair comment, I just never thought Wootton looked much when he was used properly. The decision to play Madden wide was bizarre to say the least but whatever happened to “I’ll play wherever the manager wants” as opposed to ” I’ll sulk if I don’t get what I want”?
    Toney and Crooks – Ah let me reminisce for a moment – bliss!!

    I can only comment on what I saw whilst these players were at The Iron.
    Watson – poor
    KVV – mardy arse, deserved boos on occasions, brilliant on others
    Jarvis – crock/donkey
    Hackney – poor
    Colclough – see KVV
    Wootton – not good enough
    Madden – see KVV
    Why players are better pre-Scunny and post-Scunny (excl Watson) is the big question IMO.

    Didn’t realise that L8 paid £40k p.a., thanks DM. I’m more of a £100 p.w. L1 maximimum sort of age.

    Couldn’t find my specs this morning, this is encouraging from SUFC twitter:-

    SUFC Club Shop @SUFCShop·
    19h
    🛍️👕🛒 ICYMI: SALE NOW ON!
    The Iron’s 2022-23 match squad has now been reduced by up to 50% on remaining stock 👉 http://scunthorpe-united.co.uk/news/2023/april/up-to-50-off-all-remaining-2022-23 players.

    Will that attract any suitors?

    Even more unbelievable if that reported £1500 p.w. was right. Surely OTT for NLN.
    WG – are you sure it wasn’t £150?

    Probably Ogle unfortunately. I don’t think we’ve a great recent record of keeping our Player of the Season if memory serves.

    Will any of those think there’s anything to be gained playing a NLN team?

    Mussy nails every keeper to his line, sorry to say, time he was binned. Foster will never progress with him coaching.

    Give over. He was poor when he came back last time and is a few years older now so certainly no quicker or better. Remember him for the good times.
    As for Turnbull giving names to Jimmy that he’s never heard of, probably they’re players of a higher standard than NLN which is where Jimmy’s player knowledge is based sadly.

    It’s not only the fact that ex-players improve elsewhere. For example – anybody remember how good Taft was when he came?

    Strange though, as Simon seems to have been frozen out by DH. Not shirt sponsor next season.

    One of the most frustrating things for me les. We have players lacking ability and we have to accept that, blame the recruitment and question their selection. But players that have the skills to play at NL level and higher but choose to show that ability all too rarely I just don’t understand. Can we send them to the steelworks for a week of nights to show them how lucky they are (and what’s in the pay packet) or is that not allowed.

    Retain the Shrimpt.

    We have enough anonymous MFs. Let The Cods have him and get somebody in that you can see affecting the game. (Not the way Pugh does though)

    Your dropping back into the old Lawrie McMenemy routine again cass, have you forgot already 🤔

    Yes, it’s an age thing. What day is it?
    TBF I did remember I’d said it before so some bits are still working.

    He claimed they didn’t listen to him and there was no difference between part time footballers and full time (only on a Tuesday). To his credit he apologised for not being good enough but if we start poorly again with his players its not a done deal that we’ve finished dropping

    I’ve said before that IMO the players have little or no respect for Dean. All of them, even the youngsters, have been FT professionals for longer than Dean and clearly think they know better. Maybe they do and that’s why they don’t listen.

    Plummer post match:-
    “a few of the lads have been carrying knocks and injuries. Now is the time for them all to recuperate and get ready to come back for pre-season at the end of June.”

    “them all” “come back” – bloody hell I hope not!!

    Can he be that good though? If we’ve been watching him for that long why didn’t we sign him in an effort to stay up?

    Pugh booked after 10 minutes meant he had nothing to offer thereafter.
    Can we get Whitehouse back or doesn’t Jimmy rate him?

    Players – mostly no!!
    I like the idea of Performance Related Pay for players, that would sort out what we’ve been served up lately.
