    This is why I can’t stand the London lot.
    In the McLean season i was at Huddersfield away, and met a group of them. They were going on about how big superfans they were.
    Their number seem to have decreased since then.
    I don’t go to every game, i am 50 miles away but do try to go when I can.

    Honest lawyer just round the corner from the station 250 yds Blue bell wethers 300 yds further along, recommend a taxi to the ground from there, Iron bar at the ground but that will be rammed on Saturday, the lawyer is a football pub and is good for home and away fans,

    One thing that put me off going in Lawyer was that the London lot drank in there, good pub though. Blue bell is bigger though and caters for us Real Ale Farts as well.

    Berkeley reopening soon too?

    It depends on how much the new owners are willing or able to subsidise.

    Going off the figures in the public domain- Currently, we are approximately 70k short of paying the wage bill and that doesn’t includes servicing the debt nor operational costs. It a safe assumption we are losing 100k a month.

    How long can that go on for? Crowds will not cover the costs unfortunately.

    I believe that you have just answered your own question.

    Has anything really changed?

    We still don’t have an owner that can and is willing to bankroll us.

    It looks as if we are still heading for the buffers?

    Tbh Rene, there’s not a lot of info available right now.

    Just waiting and hoping we get third time lucky.

    I may have missed something but why the animosity towards Max?

    He used his twitter account to whip up abuse towards MB, ME and others claiming “we” were the problem in the Hilton Era. to put it shortly.

    So can we get another performance like tonights on Saturday, lets hope so. By the way, is Jimmy back in the dug out ???, bet he enjoyed this game after his spell in hospital.

    Well done everyone, and good luck to our new boss Michelle and her board members.

    Chris Plummer must be taking the team I don’t think Jimmy is in a state to do so…

    Agree, a good listen on top of the result and the cherry on the cake Updates from John Tondeur about the poison dwarf losing another game.

    It’s the same in Peterborough. Broadway is where they hang out, smoking,drinking, taking things, whatever gets them through the day.

    They look after each other(unless they fall out). Not much you can do if that’s their life.

    Been a couple of times since it opened, but can’t do the Tuesday night.

    Away fans have a bit of seating and terracing down the side. You can get a pint in the seated stand along with some decent food.

    It wasn’t on twitter, was on the scunthorpe utd fans Facebook page.

    Who kept deleting threads about it trying to cover it up and pretend it never happened

    So they’re Racist as well?

    I wouldn’t come out and say “We need this”…like any Real estate deal,there could be all sorts of spanners in the works thrown in.

    A “Builder” type fund – like what Darlington have done for the playing staff – would be an idea. There’s also fans who live in bigger towns than Scunny and may have the means to contribute. don’t rule that out.

    Just to go back to KVV … I still occasionally find myself mulling over his winner at Grimsby. And that ‘disgraceful’ celebration. For that alone he’ll surely live long in the memory of Iron fans. Then I just have to have another You Tube peek. ….That’s what I’ll do now.

    We might have seen more of KVV had MK’s Favourite manager not kept him on the bench ahead of superstars like Jamie Proctor.

    If it wasn’t a catchy tune most would ignore it and carry on celebrating the goal.

    First thing for the new boss. change the music, get some of Mark Donaldson’s stuff on there.

    Surely the Brian Laws lounge is the only appropriate name change. Our legendary ex-manager who took us from the depths of league 2 to the most envied small club in the country. We owe him some sort of honour to show our gratitude for his service.

    The Nigel Adkins lounge it is then.

    The type of problem you get when shyster cowboys trying to play Billy big balls think they’re fit and proper people, and appeal to the yoof and chavs to support them, rather than the run of the mill footer fan

    Wearing a Stone Island top and getting yer mates dad to give you a burger buys a lot of credits

    If we are going to survive in our current form we ALL need to be on the same page

    Iron Trust
    OSC
    Winterton Iron
    (Are SULSESC still going)

    Having Wannabe ITKs* or those Boring ******** at the back of the stand doesn’t help anyone.

    Get behind Michelle and her board
    Get behind the Two Matt’s on the podcast
    Get behind Gareth on his vlogs
    Get behind Ollie Turner, the journo we need

    *In the know – ie that fella from the Isle

    The haven’t been owners a day yet so give them a chance to sort it out, Hilton wasn’t given it rightly or wrongly, I know Simon and Roj pretty well to talk to and they are both Iron through and through, met Michelle once and I know she is a Iron as well, let us just let them sort it in their own way and stop jumping to conclusions, they will know the priorities, let us just call them the dream team

    Trying to get your feet under the table already?

    You posted something about lamenting the club dying and being nice having a craic with some of us? We live to fight another day, and chattin shite with each other.

    If that was the case.

    Hopefully we’ve got it right this time.

    As already stated, Michelle has Scunthorpe United in her blood, along with a proven track record of success with this club working professionally and tirelessly to bring in much needed revenue under a number of “regimes”. The least we can all do is support her and refrain from all of the inane, childish and sexist comments contained within other threads on this site. For those who think it’s funny to make crass jokes about anyone because of their sex is beyond the pale and I would ask all moderators to review said posts, remove them and issue a statement of intent going forward. Let’s not allow Irun Bru to descend to the depths of any form of sexist behaviour or commentary.

    Michelle – I wish you good luck and every success in your new role.

    And where are these comments SDH57?

    I won’t get to the Brackley game but 3 games stick out:

    5-1 v Hereford, Scunny scoring five goals, we don’t normally do this.
    3-2 loss to Wigan the year they went up, more for the Wigan Fans being tossed out.
    Play off Semi Final v Swansea.
