2 strikers, 1 CB and another GK and we could give this a real go. Foster is a good shot stopped but his lack of coming off the line will bite us in the arse before long. I know he’s young but we could do with some experience in there.
Ogle was excellent as was Whitehouse and Wilson. Foster played well too, albeit at times looked shaky. I know he’s young but he looks like a reincarnation of Tommy Evans with the reluctance to come off the line.
He won’t be off his line until develops more physically, got to think he’s still built more like a gangly teenager than a full grown man. That’s something that can be easily coached as he develops.

A premier league team were watching Foster tonight.
Been impressed with him for such a young keeper; potentially a good career ahead of him.

Fought hard tonight for that, with no Shrimpton and Lavery I feared the worst.
Always wondered why Whitehouse was sent on loan, was rightly MOTM.
I have no expectations to survive this year, but if we can bring in a couple of strikers, win a few more games than the usual 1 in 10 and keep battling like that, they’ll have my full support.

Even Getting back in the football league this decade may prove to be challenging.
Pat hit the nail firmly on the head.

There is a lot of development potential on the site. Property less so with the way the market is going but it’s a huge footprint for a club our size; the east car park is wasted space.
Aslong as the club’s interests are protected, I’ll be behind any development opportunity.

Read enough about Hardy now to know I don’t want him near the club; if it’s him or bust then I can’t blame people for supporting him, but I’ll be cutting ties. Not funding another ego.
Praying the locals can resurrect their bid or there is someone out there with the money and good intentions to save the club.

Without Lavery and Shrimpton I suspect things will turn ugly soon and we could start getting hammered.

Disappointed to be honest; expected something more concrete and a formal demonstration to be arranged. Before anyone replies with the usual ‘do it yourself’… I’ve personally offered services to help arrange as a member, however it obviously needs the legitimacy of an official organisation behind it for supporters to rally behind.

Lost 50k a week and 20million in total
at Notts county, all resulting in relegation from the football league for a club pulling in 9K every week; some achievement.1 user thanked author for this post.
Beggars can’t be choosers, if they’ve got the money they will do, his records not great but no one goes into buying a football club to make it a failure, if he comes in and sells at a profit in a few years I will wish him well.
Sell for a profit 😂

No group, whoever they are can realistically organise a mass pitch invasion as the FA have deemed them illegal.
However, I would agree that a demonstration outside the ground pre or post match could be properly organised.
The gate locking stunt DID raise some public awareness.
This is what I’m pushing the trust for; We should hear something today

‘A signs’ on Midland land road is where I got my banner from for the Mansfield game.
Good quality and the owner was more than happy to provide a fair cost for the cause.

You’re better off following a local non league side if you want to continue watching live football.
No chance a phoenix club will gain momentum in this town

I’m not of too dissimilar a position Bucks but believe it can be done with Elliot and co with the current club.
Hopefully Elliot is contacting Gainsborough etc and can come to some agreement that won’t hinder the club financially going forward. I’d take a few years in the wilderness with the current club with the view of returning to Scunthorpe if either:
A) Swann was forced to sell Glanford park at a price we could afford
B) we worked with the council and attained land for a new ground. Could end similar up with a basic set up Darlington.
The relegation to NLN could work in our favour in that we are dropping to what is effectively a part time league where costs can be scaled back and the local consortiums money can stretch further.

I’ve spoken to John numerous times through the last 12 months and he clearly cares about the club so I’m not going on another witch hunt to drive people out the club. People need to take note of this.
But, it shouldn’t have reached the stage it has now and the supporters groups all need to shoulder Blame. I have previously asked John about the Trust helping to organise a protest last year before the Mansfield game and he admitted a protest should’ve probably been organised earlier and there was options to look at organising one if things deteriorated. Well they have significantly. We could have held a demonstration before a game, outside the group with no disruption to the game and still got some media attention. It would have also allowed older members or those not inclined to break the law and enter the field of play to make their voices heard.
As far as I’m concerned now, the gloves are off. The club is on its last legs and the more disruption the better now. The young lads on the pitch Saturday have brought more attention to our plight than any groups have these last few years.

If it’s a bargain which you and wondergoals keep stating then why are we all worrying? We’ll be bought in no time.

All depends on the valuation of the stadium as separate entity.
Remember aswell: there’s is a mortgage on the stadium, an unpaid tax bill which will increase significantly this month, more wages that will need funding straight away (which they have already paid last month’s so nice one on the cheapskate dig Awayswego) , and god knows what else we don’t know about.
Hardy has gave it rock all on Twitter, but his reputation is mud. Another Swann By everything Notts county fans are saying.

If it happens again and you are are unwilling or unable to enter the pitch then at least visibly show your support for those doing so, if you agree with their actions.
We aren’t getting anything organised by the supporters groups so take it upon yourself to make a stand in whatever way you deem necessary.

Never seen such collective anger and disbelief from our supporters. Turnbull has misjudged this big time.
9 users thanked author for this post.
he is saying it as a club employee, what else can he say, personally he hopes it gets settled soon but I don’t like protests like that yesterday but can understand why they did it and it was peaceful but would probably been better at the final whistle, I know a lot of fans in our stand booed the protesters and gestured them to get off the pitch but I wasn’t one of them, but didn’t clap them either.
It’s tone deaf, Mick. Insinuating supporters were to blame for the team’s performance afterwards when they were well beaten and everyone in the ground knew it.
He also said the majority of supporters were dismayed, I was sat in the main stand and it certainly wasn’t a majority, nevermind the DRE.
It’s a criminal offence so that can’t be condoned by the club, but the supporters were peaceful in nature and should not be threatened with police action. It’s a different ball game if they are threatening away fans or causing criminal damage.
In fact, everything is wrong with the statement and I’m completely disgusted by it to be honest. I’ve defended Lee on here and to other fans in person, however won’t be doing so in the future.
