He might not know which training pitch to go to!
Lol, Siderite’s post just reminded me, my first user name on one of the first iterations of the board back in c.2000 was ‘The Grammar Checker’. The only other handles I can remember from that time were The Ref, Fans64 and possibly Pele? I’m sure there were others but can’t remember them now.
This is why we don’t have any burners on Bru (touch wood); because it’s password protected and new members have to give an email address when they set up a new account. Much easier to track and trace the perpetrator on a forum like this. Much more difficult to do that on Twitter (if not impossible?). That’s why the burner accounts are set up on there. Apologies if I’m patronising you WG, but I get the impression you’re not aware of this.
‘AA is a dodgy burner account’
You do realise the definition of a burner account is one that’s set up to intimidate and abuse and is usually deactivated within hours or days to avoid detecting the perpetrator? I guess not.
Come on wondergoals, AA has said enough about affairs of the Iron and Scunny in general to assuage the most dedicated of doubters. As for this:
‘Wasn’t he/it the same poster who told us about that daft hit piece regarding Hilton on the code fishy forum to read that stupid article about Hilton insinuating he was some kind of criminal mastermind/gangland boss ?’
Before AA signposted to that article and attachment on The Fishy, I and I suspect numerous others on here had already seen it and were anticipating some sort of mention or reference to it on Bru. AA was just the first to do it.

‘That’s not good to read, Deerey. The burner accounts are a strange phenomenon clearly linked to Hilton’s circle and need stopping immediately.’
Yes, like I said, I can laugh it off, particularly as it was one of the less threatening ones, and folk who post on Twitter have had far worse as you may know. Whoever’s behind it will read this post no doubt, and it they’ve got anything to do with Hilton, my suggestion would be to pack it in – you’re doing nothing but causing more division than we already have. If you want us to pull together and get behind him and move forward, with a bit more backing and unity, just respond to the critics in a sensible and rationale manner, without the abuse and threats. It’s not rocket science. And also, we’re football supporters, we take the piss a lot, particularly Scunthonians. It’s how we were brought up!

I doubt anyone knows who II is LK but they’ve every right to post on here if it’s not libelous stuff. As you said, ignore it if you’re not interested.
Tbh I-A you do keep repeating this ‘daddies little boy’ line and with all due respect I find that a bit boring. But hey, each to their own, enjoy the sun and some nice single malt 👍
No, I wasn’t aware of who it was aimed at MKI, and neither was Ferrite by the look of it. What I said in my post though could be applied to II or IB. Am I right in thinking you don’t view Twitter? Some of the content from these burner accounts that crop up frequently is very out of order, and in some cases, disgusting. Nobody knows for sure who’s behind them but if they are indeed friends of Hilton as they claim, I can understand why anyone would be wary of speaking directly to him about anything beyond lite. I don’t even post on there myself but this week one of these posters was claiming they knew that an Iron supporter on Twitter was ‘Deereyme66’. He rightly denied it. The burner accountant then went on to claim this guy must be Siderite or Iron Age. Again, rebuffed. I was alerted to it and laughed it off, but it’s not good is it? We’ve never had this level of abuse and threats with other owners in the past. I think you said to me previously if I don’t like what I see on there, don’t view it. Well, kind of hard not to if someone on there is trying (mistakenly) to find out my identity on here via Twitter. I’m hardly his fiercest critic. But if the perpetrator thinks it will stop me airing my views on here, they can think again.

Just an afterthought, he seems very interested in social media and must have seen many of the tougher questions and concerns floating around here and Twitter. Perhaps he could release a statement clearing some of that up? Reasonable isn’t it? Would get more supporters on his side and pulling in the same direction. Any idea why he hasn’t done that?
I haven’t no, and based on some of the content of his Twitter account in response to fans with reasonable questions (his brief dialogue with SST regarding 1899 scheme for instance) and historical tweets before he took over SUFC, plus the abusive and threatening tweets from people claiming to be friends of his, I’ll be giving that one a wide berth thanks. If he reacts the way ive seen to reasonable questions and concerns, I suspect my questions would not be received very well at all. I think that’s reasonable MKI – do you? Should I be ashamed or something?

I-A, you definitely not on Twitter? This sounds a bit like you:
‘Nothing worse then imagining the worse scenario in the depths of what you think could happen, have a few beers a bag of crisps and play some good music, you need a day off from worrying 🫠’
Only joking ;)
If we had more transparent updates from DH and the occasional interview with an independent journalist that asks more new questions and skirt round the edges less, Insider’s leaks might be redundant.

It’s something and we should be bloody grateful it!

Talisker Skye?
At least 5-10 years is a bit more realistic Ŕich!

Everytime you write that I imagine Cloughie saying it.
Agree with that
‘Citeh Middle east owners. Whats right whats wrong?”
I think that’s a fair point. I wouldn’t want Newcastle’s owners if I was a supporter and it may well have pushed me away to support a local non league team. I’d like to have a better idea where the money that’s funding SUFC is coming from. At the moment it seems invisible due to the lack of filed accounts of owners businesses on Companies House (the usual go to, to understand these matters). Take Oldham’s owner, for example. We can easily check out and verify how he’s made his money and how that might well be funding the club. Some say, it doesn’t matter to them. Fine, I appreciate that, but it’s pretty important to me and I suspect many others.
‘The plan maybe to build two stands so the two years is possible’
Based on the sketch Hilton shared, it doesn’t look like that would be feasible. It’s an enclosed arena (apart from the top right corner being open, for some reason). Doesn’t look like build a stand as you go. Maybe there’s arena examples where that has happened previously?
June 2, 2023 at 8:31 am in reply to: david pay day was yesterday why are staff still waiting for their money? #263597Last month a few posters on Twitter / Facebook were trying to blame the Swann legacy for wages being late.
It won’t be the end of the world playing elsewhere for a few years but it’s not ideal, particularly for those Iron supporters travelling in from the west, unless it’s Donny of course. If it’s Gainsborough, for many exiles, it will just add another 30mins there and 30 back.

That BS aside, yours and Siderite’s comments raise a good question about art v the artists sociopolitical Bents and outpourings. I can still listen to and appreciate the output of the Smiths and Floyd despite the stuff Waters and Morrisey come out with. Though it presents questioning and challenges I could do without.
Hopefully no Iron fans start mentioning Pink Floyd on Twitter Iron Age. One poor Twitter user chap who was critical of Mr Hilton recently was being matched to me, you and Siderite by one of those burner accounts purporting to be ‘mates with Dave’. If that doesn’t make much sense, don’t worry, it didn’t to me either. Though the second rate Colombo nature made me laugh.
Coincidentally, I was listening to Jon Savage speaking at a do the other week. He was less than complimentary about Waters from his recollections of him in the 70s when he decided the rest of the band weren’t necessary anymore 🤣
I’m sure eyes are being kept out Siderite ;)
The late Kurt Vonnegut is our new spiritual leader and our motto is ‘everything was beautiful and nothing hurt’ :)
Up the squatting burner account lovin Iron!!
Definitely reminds me of à Beatles song that:
‘You better run for your life while you can little girl; hide your head in the sand little girl; catch you with another man, that’s the end-ah, little girl!’
