“Facts”. I mean, it’s clearly an opinion. You don’t have to rate him but 30 goals in the SPL last year is a fact.
Fair point about last season I was referring to his time playing for us in terms of consistency and yes it’s always an opinion but KVV disappeared for periods and entire games sometimes but he was a goal scorer so rose tinted specs usually apply with them.

Brian has been in the directors box the last three home games, nice to see him looking well and supporting the Iron.

I’d like to see Elliot more central, I fell he’s a bit lost in the wide position in the 4-3-3. I think he’d get back to his best centrally and a couple of goals behind him.
Absolutely agree he doesn’t look confident at all playing wide, second to almost every ball first half, woeful overhit passes throughout the game and his only meaningful contribution was the glancing header that went narrowly wide. He’s a better player then that, we just haven’t seen it enough yet

He’s a football manager, the vast majority TALOB, it’s in their job description.

Butterfield’s goal was class, what a player he is and the young lad from Leeds had his best game in an Iron shirt yet IMO. Elliott though was awful and should have been subbed but in truth it wasn’t a great game. It was more about the tremendous atmosphere and passion generated inside the ground, there was a real togetherness in the stadium. Congratulations to the new owner and board and if our club has learned one thing in the last ten years it’s the value of having local owners. It takes a certain type of person to understand what this football club means to this town and its people. No more Swanns or Hilton’s please. UP THE IRON.

Elliott went about it the wrong way, no need to play the smart arse, this is serious stuff and he handled that part of the interview poorly IMO. Fans criticising Andy Comfort need to grow up.

Start the new era with a 2-1 win in front of 5,036 (35 away and 1 from South Korea).
Announcement about an interim agreement over GP?
The ticketing information on the website would suggest so.

Wow what a great video, sums it all up perfectly.

Agreed DM, we know Awaywego has to be different but this constant arse kicking of people actively trying to help our club out of this current situation is counter productive IMO.

With a large crowd cheering the boys on and the feel good factor between staff and players with over £68,000 being raised to help them out, I predict a home win. Also has GP been secured till the end of this month with tickets for both Spennymoor and Bishop Stortford now on sale, they weren’t available on the website yesterday?

The fact the new owner has worked at the Iron during the Swann era is a bonus IMO for helping to get an amicable agreement over GP, it wasn’t like Swann and Hilton had the most cordial of relationships over that particular matter.

Nice to see those ridiculous bans under Hilton lifted, will the phone chucker be the first person banned under the new ownership?, well he did break the club’s rules on throwing objects onto the pitch and remember it applies home and away.

Aidan reporting a deal is close with Swann to remain at GP, wow, that would be a proper result if true.

A lady owner, congratulations Michelle and thank you, first job, smack Awaywego across the gob with your handbag. UTI, we have OUR club back.

Awaywego we don’t know how much Hilton has put into the Iron since he arrived but we do know he insisted on season tickets being cash only and 1899 payments being bankers draft, hardly normal procedure these days in business.

All hypothetical of course but if the Iron Trust could pass a thousand strong in membership and each member stumps up a grand , could Elliot and Sharp come back in with some more money, maybe some kind of lottery grant included too? It’s a long shot but we need that ground to save the club in its current form.

The club statement said that it was Coolsilks refusal to discuss the ground situation that has lead to us leaving after Saturday because of fear of back rent to pay when the ground issue is eventually settled. That tells me there won’t be a legal defence over the ground from our side and with the owner not funding the club he’s hardly going to court to buy a ground for a club he wants to sell. Sell, what a joke, he is rumoured to have only paid one pound for the club in January and has already said he won’t get any money back ( if any ) he has paid into the club since then. Mind you he said a fortnight back he would continue to fund the club till it was sold, that went well didn’t it? Just give up the club and clear of pal and then maybe some group of investors will come in, take over the club and begin a dialogue with Coolsilk to acquire the ground. UTI.
