OK give me ONE answer as to how it will help the players on the pitch?
A change in ownership could see an improvement in attendances, a growth in income and a better future for the club. I’d say that probably is in the interests of the players too, no?

Depends how you slice it I guess, you could say 5 wins in the second half of the season.

Grimsby had momentum from last season.
They 100% would have stayed up if Hurst had been there abit longer.
Momentum? Have you seen their form from the back end of last season?
Remember when they had a player sent off for nutting a team mate?
I think you’re right MK but, for what it’s worth, I’d still be going to games if Swann wasn’t there.
But, equally, the game as a whole (not just SUFC) charges such high prices these days that they have turned fans into customers. £5 to get in ? “Yeah, fine, I’ll go along pretty much anytime”. £25? “Hang on, I want a bit more bang for my buck now”.

McAtee has been brilliant for us this season. As for the jibes about it’s only the Conference, you only have to look at Sarfend to see it’s a better standard than you’re trying to make it out to be. Hurst knows how to get the best out of him, he has also bought in some great players for him to play off, and built a team that plays good football and is scoring for fun, from scratch with little money spent, unlike some in the National league.
Is that Ryan Taylor up front for you the ginger one who used to be at Rotherham?
I don’t think most Scunny fans are not in any doubt about how hard the Conference will be next season, despite Swann’s boasts about us still being a Football League club.

Some substance to part of that, Mullen & Madden for example haven’t dropped to NL to further their careers.
Regarding McAtee, maybe he could be starring for us if properly managed.You’re right but you can’t say that and then claim that McAtee’s doing well for the Cods because the Conference is a poor standard. Which is it?

And then get the club into trouble with the FA, that would go down well
Oh no! We might be fined and not be able to spend money on players! Or be docked points and end up bottom of the Football League! That’d be much worse.

I noticed that MK, it was in an answer to pretty much the same question I think!

His tone was more optimistic than that but who knows? As SST pointed out, the planning permission only lasts until the middle of next year, so something will have to happen soon or he’ll have to submit a new application.

Personally, I would not be having a go at the team, no point in this position. Support the team, sack the board would be my view!

I thought the Bru crew asked some good, probing questions. My favourite was SST’s “what if you’re the problem, Peter?” when he brought up the survey.
Lots of talk but I didn’t think there were many firm answers. For example, Neil Wright asked him about the EFL loan but I don’t feel we got a clear answer on that, see also the questions about Bilson.
However, apparently we can expect an announcement on ground developments in the next few weeks! It’s great to get an old favourite like that back!
