    This forum is turning into daft laugh land the further some of these threads go, guess it’s a symptom of living under the Tories. Oh dear what have I said now 😭

    I’ve heard he signs all his deals with a quill pen dipped in virgins blood by the light of the crescent moon. Just saying ….

    Just to reply to Cliffs point about O’Malley, he was never a left back IMO but he could slot into left midfield and be a temp left back in an emergency, we might not get as many options as we think about players wanting to come here next season.

    Do you agree next season will be a proper yardstick of the new owner and manager, as Peter Levy says ad nauseum on his Look North interviews it’s just a yes or no question?

    No so much of a yardstick as a metre rule. It’s a completely different league with a number of part time teams.

    Both owner and manager has been found to be out of their depth in this league.

    Not certain that NL(N) we be a paddling pool!

    So do you mean NI that if we do well next year and get promoted, Dean and Hilton won’t have proved anything until they manage to stay up in the National League the season after.🤔 Well if that’s your logic fine.

    Some people still don’t get it, our football club has to change or die, simple as, the more money the new owner can get in to help turn us round the better. I’ve been watching the Iron since 1964 and I was a season ticket holder up until lockdown but I have chosen to pay every home game individually since then. Does it cost me more, yes, do I care, no, do I miss the odd home game because I choose to do other things ( the odd weekend away etc ) yes, does that make me any less a loyal fan then a season ticket holder,no. In short I will still end up paying more to watch the Iron then a season ticket holder and that’s fine by me.
    Look if you want to pay up front before May then fine do it, if you choose not to, fine do that but STF up moaning and whinging about FA, it’s completely pathetic the way some of you go on about crap.

    I believe he is in rehearsal for his new acting career. He’s been cast in ‘The Invisible Man’ but it’s a non-speaking role.

    Well at least that’s an upgrade on the previous owner, his was a non thinking role when it came to running a football club.

    If’s buts and maybes, if the cops hadn’t opened up the Leppings Lane gates 34 years ago then 97 Liverpool fans would probably still be walking about enjoying their football, such is the lottery of life sometimes. What’s done is done and that includes current and former Iron players and their footballing abilities.

    You need more syrup on your waffles Sidey, you’d get to love em then. Loan players brought in at short notice to transform a teams fortunes was always going to be a gamble and before the Nelson issue raises it’s ugly head again, that is just a matter of opinion whether he could have done any better. Look the new owner took a chance on bringing a raft of players in on short term deals and loans, it failed but at least him and the new manager tried, if people think they didn’t try hard enough or weren’t good enough then that again is just opinion. Next season will be the yardstick for where we are going under Hilton and Dean, so you can put that in your waffles maker and chew it

    Should have kept Jarvis on this season’s showing, he’s just knocked in a hat trick for Torquay. Remember him getting plenty of stick from some last season.

    It’s all pie in the sky, we were a league side when KVV was with us, it’s all immaterial now, we have to move on with the reality of our current situation.

    I can’t recall an interview where he stated we never had a chance, can you send the link?

    I wasn’t quoting ad verbatim.

    Which means basically, “that’s bollocks then”. Your right again Cliff.

    Cox ,Hill, Daws, and Wilcox.?

    If Hill has anything it’s as a racconteur; Cox is alright, Daws spoke quite well and Wilcox too. There’s no comparison.

    Hill and Cox should have been nowhere near the managers job !
    Wilcox – not particularly inspiring but the players liked him.
    Daws – one temp manager option too many.

    McAtee didn’t like Wilcox, wouldn’t play for him if you all remember.

    You are perfectly entitled to your opinion Wonderloaf but I believe your response entirely vindicates my previous post.

    And in the case of Dean the clamour to get rid of him is unprecedented even for our fans. Definitely something in the air we breathe.

    I believe there is just a lack of patience with some clamouring for Deans head, we have won games under him, the Wealdstone win was a really good all round performance but there has been a real lack of consistency overall. Loan players, changing players around and muddled tactics have unsettled some supporters but for me it’s about getting a balanced squad in place for next season and letting JD settle in to the role with a squad he believes in. I’ve always said we were down before he arrived even with Nelson in charge, we have been clinging to the wreckage of a broken club for five seasons and David Hilton or Jimmy Dean are not miracle workers. The comments about them I believe are a throwback to a basic distrust in the previous owner which LBH has festered amongst us all for a long time. Be patient people, it’s a long road back but we need stability,plus a complete restructuring of the club if we are to survive and we have to hang in there and let the new people in charge do their jobs. Having a couple of fake accounts continually spouting conspiracy theories and spouting shite on here doesn’t help but most sensible supporters will recognise what their agenda is anyway. Yes pass comments, give opinions, you are all entitled to do that but let your foot off the throats of the people now trying to push us forward and until actual facts surface about how the club has been purchased and being guided and is proven to show some wrong doing, then just keep supporting everybody involved in Scunthorpe United. UTI.
