Just watched their highlights, how did we win that we were never in it apart from two or three group huddles.

Made me chuckle only showing the goal celebrations not the goals ..

i did notice Fitz seems quite portly , chunky , after training pint n a pork pie fetish perhaps.. no worries if he keeps playing like that all season.

[ironfromafar]

Brackley TV … a tad one sided perhaps

Ar yes forgot about Mr H …. just the pool player then LOL

On the topic of our ex-manager, has this exciting young manager been snapped up by another club this summer?

If/When things go pear shaped at Peterboro Sports im sure JD will be back there in a flash.. unless hes snapped up before.. Remember the England job is up for grabs he may be in the frame for that also.

Talking about subs I just remembered something I noticed. All subbed players interacted with Butler when coming off except Whitehall when he and Butler seemed to ignore each other. Trouble at t’mill? I hope not.

good spot cass maybe sulking cos got subbed. Another thing i noticed take a look at the players on the pitch at the end celebrating applauding the fans on the club FB page .. it seemed like Fishburn went to high five Roberts n both awkwardly pulled out.. just seemed odd.

Whitehall wasn’t really at the races yesterday. I hope he improves for his sake because if he doesn’t we’ll be seeing Carlton and Beestin up top. Roberts looked really awkward and out of place playing centrally, it may be a problem trying to make room for him in this formation.

I’d start Brogan there personally, we need him on the pitch right from the off.

Whall has had a poor pre season, some saying he played ok yesterday other stating otherwise.. hope his heart is in the club and the season to come.

[ironfromafar]

Seems from reports the whole team played well … though its very pleasing to see the newbies all being singled out for praise and doing so well, hopefully Charlton will do the same now his surprising suspension is done which according to AB came out the blue via a Friday phone call…never realized they carried on over a season.

Re the “last two – Dean n Hilts” i think its pretty much guaranteed for whatever reason and there were some players that just didnt want to be here and play jimmy ball so lets hope everyone is on the same page this season … it certainly does look as though they are.

[ironfromafar]

Excellent start to the season good performance n 3 points from a difficult away fixture.

Game sounds like it was quite close and pivoted on at Scunny 1-0 up Fitz twice and a goal line clearance saved the day .. an equalizer would have obviously changed the whole game.Fitness work rate and more attacking pressing system also being lauded as factors.

WELL DONE TO ALL inc the 600 fans who traveled.

Hope Roberts is ok AB said only a fatigue issue saying that alternating Roberts for Brogan in match may happen a lot this season though Brogan is getting rave reviews so he could well be in the starting 11 more as time goes on.

As afoot note as expected Nong Bua Pitchaya lost to Buriram 4-0 with Abo Eisa making his debut as No 9 .. gonna be a long hard season i see it as NBP are the whipping boys ala Burnely Luton m Sheff U were in the EPL.

[ironfromafar]

We are Toppa the league after 18mins of the season

[ironfromafar]

Continuous message .. commentary is unavailable due to contractual reason or tech issues … WANKERS

[ironfromafar]

very surprising starting 11 .. Charlton suspended.

[ironfromafar]

Just reviving this thread back to first page life in the hope some loverly Bru member will post a link to the HR commentary as twood appear its gonna be a nono visually here.

Thanks in advance

[ironfromafar]

Im finding the negativity about predicting negative results very negative.

Good luck to the team today

50 mins to KO here at Nong Bua Pitchaya v Buriram .. will Abo Esia start ?? and no rain storm predicted alas it is 34 degrees n really muggy.

[ironfromafar]

Duffus .. 23 games in 3 years , he may be a tad rusty , sent out on loan a few times latest being Hartlepool and they havent signed him tells its own tale.

No club update on Braithwaite yet

The negativity is staggering.

I’ll for for a 2-0 iron win with Brogan and Whitehall netting.

Surely a prediction is based on the thoughts of the individual concerned on how they see things happening negative or positive so what just because we are all Scunny fans should we say the Iron will win 5-0 every week. Without a ball being kicked in anger first game , new team , new manager new system of play away at arguably one of the best sides in the NLN henceforth its a difficult one to call so fully understand the various differing views.

Come September predicting scores should become easier.

Fingers crossed for an away win , tho happy with a draw .. sticking with my 1-1

The SUFC super sleuth Aidan Wilko has spotted a face in a training image

Center forward Courtney Duffus ex Barrow on loan at Hartlepool could he be the mystery man ?? not scored since 2021 according to his rap sheet.

Most fans have got the owners they want and appreciate.
Got the manager they wanted, so why would fans need to go on saying we’re lucky to have a club.
The honeymoon is over.
We’re that big fish in a little pond and it is a little pond and nows the time to leap out of it nothing else will do.

You ok AWG you double dosed on the meds very moving post im crying now … 55555555 onnee kiddin agree entirely.

[ironfromafar]

Agree

I like the look of all the signings to be fair but just feel still something missing and the squad is a tad light when injuries n suspensions kick in .. two more additions would help for sure.

Whall has looked poor in pre season also concerning.

[ironfromafar]

well already a real mix bag of predictions

a 1-1 draw from me
a well beaten 3-1 loss from ss24
a 2-1 win from MK n Anderson

IMO a more balanced view than that of fans on the SUFC Fand FB page and just goes to show how differently we perceive the current squad and how pre season has gone.

Clunan interview so surely hes nailed on the start as captain

I did say a while back we needed a smaller nippy goal poacher style striker

Isn’t that Carlton?

Didnt categorize CUb in that way Cass but do think he will notch a few this season.

AB / LT must be thinking an extra center forward be handy as took this mystery fella on trial.

I did say a while back we needed a smaller nippy goal poacher style striker …very much doubt its hooper though .. its being kept a very tight secret so interested to find out just who it is and if Braithwaite is being signed , i hope he is .

[ironfromafar]

Im planning to go watch Nong Bua Pitchaya FC v Buriram unites Saturday 6pm KO , Abo Eisa debut for NBP against the best side by a mile over the last decade here Buriram so expectiong a proper thrashing ..

Suffice to say i shall don my Scunny shirt of course and give him an IRON IRON IRON.

Wondering how his fitness is and will handle the very different playing conditions here as games are never stopped or called off even in the most severe weather it gets comical sometimes.. the heat and humidity will be a factor more so its rainy season and torrential downpours are expected.

35 min trip back after that game in time for the Brackley Scunny game … its great the footy is back.

UTI and NBP

[ironfromafar]

I refer the right honourable members of Bru to my earlier post below as to my prediction come next April… one change .. remove Scarboro replace with Darlo (agree with CMC)

L2 .. Cods to get relegated

Couple of interesting points AB brought up.

Braithwaite in talks this week and another center forward arrived on trial but no name given..maybe some Bru super sleuths have the goss n some titbits.
