There’s always the possibility that there’ll be something ridiculously dramatic like Fitzsimons getting sent off this Saturday, or Roberts getting injured…

a very valid point over looked by all the fans who now think we are nailed on champs .. last thing any of us want is the nasty play offs again.

[ironfromafar]

I see some are still very positively exclaiming the “win all 6” tag line when in reality we wont do that ..not with KLT Spenny and Hereford to play all away.
Its gonna be very tight between the Iron Kiddy n Brackley and may all come down to the last day and or goal difference/games won.

So in direct answer to the thread header … im not sure if pushed to get off the fence sad to say i just think we will get pipped by either of the other 2.

Here you go
Credited to Jason Hinsley on the SUFC fb page

The bell ends on Iron Bru have caused all this with stupid rumours by the half a dozen or so that still bother to post on the site, a site ran by a guy who falsley accused a major fundraiser at SUFC of being a thief and wasn’t man enough to publicly apologise, the same guy that mind boggling the iron trust keep as a committee member Michelle, rest assured the majority of us are 100% behind what you and the other board members are doing and trust you with the future of the club, ignore the morons on Bru and keep doing what you’re doing

Who’s the guys name who starts the thread

Which thread are you referring to?

Where you mentioned bru getting slated on Scunny fans Facebook

It was me that read the thread slagging Bru off earlier today .. its on the Scunny club fb page not the Fans fb page.
Posted on the CLUB STATEMENT thread by a member Jason Hinsley
apparently all this is our fault

i tried to copy n paste it here but wont let me post comes up as an error.

I would love to be in the DRE but alas at the moment until i retire thats out the question , that said even though im across tuther side of the world i found ways to contribute both directly and via folks doing stuff on the ground there .. so being out of the country what do i get in return for my contributions ? Easy answer …. my memories and love for my home town club are well worth a few quid and im guessing many other Scunny fans around the world feel the same.

Gareth’s videos are a bit boring, but I really appreciate that he is doing them and has the passion to do them. No-one can fault that.

In general with the Iron Hour crew it seems to me that there’s very little self-awareness. Not all of them, it has to be said, but certainly a couple of them. Particularly over last night’s ‘forgive Gareth’ campaign thread on the Facebook group. Double standards, lack of accountability.

I never bother with the Iron Hour podcast .. not my cuppa tea

This Zanetti fella head full of moon dust is just digging a deeper hole for himself ..there isnt any explanation for his half time demented antics other than hes a bell end

I think Gareth might have got misled
He’s Scunny through and through
No hate from me

Same here .. i reckon he was sold a pup n fed a loadof BS which got him into this pickle .. seems like a proper nice bloke nary a sinister thought towards SUFC ..he loves the club thats plain to see.
Like his YT vlogs all be it a tad repetitive.

We … Bru getting torn a new arse on one thread on the SFFBP totally unjustified IMO.

Afew ideas popping up on SM re ways to find much needed investment, hopefully that fifth investor will surface soon .. indeed ive bought lotto tickets today and everything is crossed even my ears.

Agree with the OP, even with an army of Stu Maw clones basic fundraising simply isnt gonna be enough and hopefully the club and fans can come up with a solution… i just wish Stu would take his tongue out the BovD arses and less voyeuristic gushing please… all whilst flogging his footy cards (which im not knocking btw)

The unfortunate thing is it does have an air of predator behaviour about it.

Vultures circling round any poor sods in dire situations. Promising piles of no strings attached cash, except for the opportunity to film people making cups of tea in the boardroom, maybe a 24hr livestream of watching the pitch grow.

I don’t buy the social, doing it for the love of the game angle.

Sympathies to any clubs on their hitlist.

Totally agree i wasnt buying the guys fake “caring for the club n game bollocks” its all about them making money quick and then gone like a fart in the wind …but of course im only a mere pleb of a fan what can i possibly know.

Listening to that this guy seems categorically full of himself , higher intelligence and social standing than all the great unwashed fans who know nothing.. indeed a condescending twat springs to mind.

Anyway mate thanks but NO THANKS for that now TATTY BYE .. and i wish you lots n lots ov luck finding a club whose fans are onside and want to work with you.

[ironfromafar]

seems most of this is playing out on twitter X .. i dont use it so just picking up titbits as i see em .. how has Gareth Ironarmy got himself involved thought he had more sense unless he was hood winked by slippery Sharp n radar Roberts

So, if this crap get’s the go-ahead this weekend how are we protesting?

Sponsors across the whole club spectrum must get on to Glyn Sparks pronto to voice their concern …ive seen only only major sponsor do so as yet.

As for fans on cusp of a coup style betrayal of epic proportions at the most crucial part of the season but just how to protest yet to be decided as they will more than likely unsettle AB and the players for the run in.

[ironfromafar]

Crikey … i know Saturdays fantastic win was huge but as my earlier post im seeing even more fans on SM Fb etc now assuming its guaranteed us the title , “we are champions” , “going up” as though its already done .. PLEASE get a grip way to many variables and this IMO is sheer folly , its madness they call it madness and one step beyond sanity.

Please CALM DOWN dont buy the champagne ,make the T shirts or book the open top bus until its won … out title aspirations could well be derailed by all the rumours of this coup style “takeover”.

[ironfromafar]

it will all be labelled as necessary ” fiscal streamlining ” ..seems the club are changing direction re decisions based on loyalty towards those who helped when at their lowest ebb
Other than Michelle n Roj are our other directors true fans ?? at the mo its making me wonder.

[ironfromafar]

a draw would be marvelous .. as well as sendings off for both

Kiddy free scoring recently means their goal difference is now close to ours which may come into play later

[ironfromafar]

This is all very worrying.

We had Swan
We had Hilton

Then thank the lord Michelle came along to save the club and in the course of a years relative stability largely due the the local council, businesses and fans / population of the town rallying round to raise money… if this FC 100000 is allowed to happen what a huge kick in the gonads it will be for all those who helped when the chips were down and the club on the cusp of folding.

If Sharp ETC are true fans they should know this is a massive NO NO and could possibly destroy all the great work that has been done.

Sponsors already coming out against this , lets hope more do and put the pressure on those leading this which INO is a betrayal of the fans and towns loyalty.

All this negativity at the crux of the season and after the euphoria of 8k plus and a fantastic win against Chester its a real downer and more so could well effect the mindset of the players and coaching staff as well as sponsors and fans with more un necessary uncertainty.

WTF are “they” thinking of ???

Rather than chavfest, with a shite line up appealing to Superdry Warriors, which is surely realistically going to attract a few thousand locals and a thousand from out of town, wouldn’t a better strategy have been trying to sign a decent headliner and support act or two for each day who could guarantee a sizeable audience? I just don’t get their approach tbh.

Yes IMO 100% the best way to go .. one huge headline artist with a few run up crowd warming bands.

1 decent big name attracting a huge crowd rather than a plethora of semi talented noise polluting ones attracting less numbers and more hassle of the Zanetti kind.

Just get the feeling this whole event is gonna be a disaster .. hope not but heyho.

[ironfromafar]

what im seeing on the various YT vlogs and SM is that some Scunny fans are thinking because of yesterdays brilliant win we are almost certain to be champs .. one commenting its all but guaranteed us the title.

Yes we are in a decent spot and im more positive and optimistic than i was a while back but thoughts as above are all way way too premature..plenty of twists n turns in this story yet for sure.

Rather ironic the club stressed to fans re miss behaving and yet the biggest culprit on the day (Scunny associated) was Mr Zanetti in his half time embarrassing expletive filled yelling and the club gave him the mic 555555
A few on SM saying he may well ov had something else in his system other than joy and good music vibe and sadly Susan Boyle,The Crankies and Dolly Parton have now cancelled their sets at the weekender in protest.

I hope the weekender gig is a huge success but the promoters antics yesterday wont help ticket sales which by all accounts are very slow … could be a real disaster especially if the weather is nasty as well as the music.

Well done to all fans and players .. great day even from afar.

What odds on Clunan scoring .. be a miracle of biblical proportions …

Dont care who nets but be great if Beck , Udou or Mo could notch.

Waiting news on Danny Whall n Alfir Beestin .. if included could be key.

Due to atrocious recruitment, and poor striking options, I can only see a scraped draw, or close defeat. Brace yourselves lads, 0-2, 1-2, or 1-1.

Sometimes its got to be laid out straight and i dont think we are good enough to to beat Chester tomorrow unless we click and its a mega performance rather than the mediocre we are used to. ITS CALLED CRUNCH TIME and i hope the players step up and put the effort in to reward the massive fan turn out.

That said .,.re previous post
Yes sadly i agree 0-0 1-1 is best option .. BUT i fear a 0-1 or 0-2 or 1-2 for the exact reasons you mention,, our toothless strike force and a huge loud away following may well get Chester over the line as Scunny NEVER turn p on the big occasion.
