    0-0 with Cox opting for safety against a team he has IMO too much respect for. I feel if he goes for it the game is winnable but I can’t see him thinking that and if we get a point away then I guess he will be justified.

    Scrappy 1-0 win, VanVeen off the bench to nab the winner and reclaim his title of greatest player ever to wear an Iron shirt, whilst sporting that stupid beard.

    The budget can’t or shouldn’t afford the Rodwells of this world, he was bloody useless anyway. Let’s keep it cheap and cheerful folks. 😀

    One of the reasons they don’t mic up Premiership refs live on air like rugby refs, the players could not take a bollocking without kicking off and hassling the official. Love watching and listening to rugby refs laying down the law and explaining very clearly why they have made a decision to the player concerned. Also note that a lot of the players still refer to the rugby ref as sir and some refs call players by their first names. The respect between players and rugby refs and players and Premiership refs is miles apart and sad to see. Also you don’t get many rugby coaches gobbing off on air of in the press after a game about how the referee had done. It’s chalk and cheese really, Premiership footballers have a lot of indiscipline that needs addressing but I will say that VAR interpretation needs to be addressed by the authorities aswell.

    Salary cap was a way of trying to ensure clubs survive this desperate position the game and the world finds itself in. Hard to get clubs to stick to it and in an ideal world we don’t want it, the facts that the club’s themselves don’t want it speaks volumes about how they feel the game should be run. I still think some clubs will fold and I believe long term the game won’t want salary caps as a solution to the games problems, it’s the way our football system works and overall bigger clubs, who ultimately have the final say whether we like it or not, will get there own way. As for Man City being ” sterile “, hey it’s all about opinions and in my opinion Man City are a sensational side to watch, I absolutely love watching them play, as for 16 consecutive wins, cracking attacking play, massive goal difference and points clear at the top of our football pyramid with a game in hand on most of their challengers, well that speaks volumes to me about how good and IMO how entertaining they are.

    Cods were having a few laughs at our expense over tonight’s abandonment, usual stuff all blah blah blah, not laughing so much now with Stevenage and Southend both winning away from home, puts them bottom.

    We were better at falling over!!! Long time ago to remember all the details but the result was a nightmare in dreadful conditions but as my mate said as we left the ground ” it was the same conditions for both teams “. Can’t argue with that point TBF.

    Don’t mention orange ball and orange lines, or were they blue lines🤔 back in the 70’s we played Rochdale at the OSG and lost 4-0. They had four shots and scored four goals, we just slid around on our arses for 90 minutes. No more of that orange ball milarky thank you very much.

    Is there any wonder swanny says ” well it’s always my fault isn’t it” when posters come out with he only spoke to 2 groups of fans, instead of the 6 groups that were involved.

    What he actually says on air and the reasons why does not address the point of the club ownership being transferred to Coolsilk and possible ramifications in the future, if he eventually sells us off, big if but possible and runs away, it will be his fault and the blame will be his. I merely pointed out his latest defensive position when asked awkward questions.

    Good points Stocky,let the fans take the blame for releasing the info is a good method of deflecting the heat from a contentious decision made by the board. The news would come out sooner or later so why sit on it and blame others but it’s typical of any management to blame others whilst deflecting the reality of their actions. In truth all we have is verbal protest, Swann owns the club lock stock and barrel and whilst we morally as fans are the heartbeat of the Iron, he holds all the cards. I’ve said good and bad things about the Swann period in charge of our club but he always comes across to me anyway on radio as being very plausible when discussing football issues but when pushed on ownership of club or direction of the club he soon becomes quite arrogant. I noticed his latest thing when questioned on Humberside about club issues is the ” well it’s always my fault isn’t it ” angle, as a form of defensive shield. Well actually Peter if you eventually sell us off for land development,clear your debts and run away, it will be your fault, your in charge.

    Is it because football is corrupt and has been even more so since Mr Murdoch got his grubby paws on it? 🤔

    Would imagine the Bradford game will cop it as well.

    Yep, waterlogged pitch yesterday, frozen pitch Tuesday I should reckon.

    Just more of the same as the last three games please, will obviously miss the ” Little Gem ” but he missed most of the victory over Colchester and who knows we just may get a ” VanVeen cameo ” off the bench to give us some more cheer. Cox appears to have his screwed on properly now and the game plan seems to be working pretty well overall.

    More like Teddy Who? Anyway we should not judge till the lad has played a few games but like quite a few others I thought the defence would have been pretty much sorted with Taft signed up and MaGahey approaching full fitness. Does seem a strange signing.

    Awaywego is ” comedy gold”, hasn’t a clue doesn’t even come close, those years of pylon climbing have led to early brain degeneration kicking in. Already an early nominee for The Last Legs, ” Dick Of The Year Award “, following in Trumps footsteps, what an honour. 😂😂😂

    I’m sure there will be criticism from some with certain aspects of our game tonight but for me 3 wins, 6 goals ,3 clean sheets and 9 points in 7 days is worthy of 👏👏👏 well done guys, really well done.

    Have a look at the Haysey goal againt Colchester on SUFC Twitter. Wouldn’t mind one of those tonight but not sure anybody likely to be playing has that ability.

    Me and my mate were at that one Cass, long old bus trip down, couple of beers before the game and that Paul Hayes gem was our reward, what a goal, what a player. I remember the Iron faithful crammed behind the goal at the opposite end singing and shouting their heads off. Happy days.

    I think a point would be an excellent result down at Colchester, the guys have done great the last two games but a third inside a week is a big ask. Expect the last half hour to be a battle of affliction as the fatigue sets in, we are playing a good side who have slipped a little of late, they will be desperate to get back on track against us and prove a point to their manager and fans. Good luck guys.

    That was a great result tonight so well done guys for a sterling effort, another clean sheet and Loft really showing what he can do with proper support. Guess the Colchester game was arranged a while back for this Friday but Saturday would have suited us better,hope its not a game too far but I’m sure the guys will give it a real go. Eisa came through!!! great, hope he’s good to go again next game, we really need all our main players fit to go ASAP. UP THE IRON.

    Surprised Eisa has made it after the reports about his knee after the derby match, even Cox said it would be unlikely he would play, unless it was just bullshine after what Esia did to Vale last time out against them. Hope we aren’t looking at another McGahey situation after tonight’s game, that outcome was just bloody ridiculous and could easily have been avoided with sensible management.

    Rowe for Clarke, McAtee( yes it’s time for mardy arse to get his finger out and prove he wants away by contributing ) for Eisa and show the same application as Saturday against a team struggling for form. If that happens it’s a 2-0 home win, happy days.
