Does that mean we’ll stop paying him?
Bartonscorpion not alone in cheering the end of his “expert summariser” career.Indeed cass marvelous news Mr Cox has found alternative employment thus keeping him out of the RH commentary box.
I HOPE HE WILL BE REALLY REALLY REALLY BRAVE AND SHOW LOTS OF QUALITY IN HIS NEW ROLE.

its a shame that for what ever reason there seems to be some “fans” that just dont want to see JD succeed ..
there is a buzz back , team spirit , smiling faces on players at appear to want be be at the club and JD seems to be forging them into a decent outfit. Higher attendances happy fans seeing entertaining football, better food at games and new hand dryers ……..whats not to like ..
Im guessing its a combination of Hilton , Budget , JD and his team so well done n lets hope he wins many more MOTM this season and next.

Yes, the “Have a a go at Hilton” boys seem to be running out of ammo. Scraping the barrel with repossessed handryers which they seem to have got wrong anyway.
(Oh dear, how sad!!)Indeed to use an old footy chant … OH .. ITS ALL GONE QUIET OVER THERE
Im sure IB will be diligently trawling the archives for past CCJs etc , and any breaking news on DH ..latest i heard was that he alleged cheated in his school exams and stole a cadburys creme egg from the tuck shop.
Defo a possible banana skin this one .. Buxton a team no body has really fancied to do well but they are rattling in the goals and as previously mentioned top the form table…Fitz needs to be on form as do his defense… Mid field will be key missing a bit of grit with Clunan, Scales n Beestin all out.
Hoping Smith in for Scales .. so good luck to the lad on his full home debut if that happens.
Prediction.. a few goals in this one so im going
3-2
att 3899Hoping to actually have time to tune in as i missed the SSD game cos of work commitments and it being horrible KO time.
I was very skeptical about JD but credit where its due doing a great job with the players he chose , got them playing nice football as a team and there seems to be some team spirit at long last.
MOTM well deserved ……..need to keep the early season momentum going.
Good luck Richie !
I wouldn’t be surprised to see Carver and the other loan lads back at some stage.If we get to the stage where getting Carver back becomes necessary then the s*** is already too deep.
AGREE there cass … i wouldnt mind seeing Barrows coming back from Ilkeston ..hes a versatile player can slot in a few different positions.
Looking forward to see how Connor Smith plays in his full Iron debut at GP.“The 32-year-old has had no shortage of suitors in higher divisions, but opted to return to Glanford Park and train with the club a couple of weeks ago”
Are we really supposed to believe that??
As my old gran used to say …. what a load of bollocks !!
He turned down other clubs in the EFL n NL to play for Scunny, why ?? when he was here before (yes in a crap team) he looked totally un interested….so lets see if owts changed.

Yesterday commentary was at best ok .. Cox isnt good and his constant use of the words brave and quality are enough to make your ears bleed ..let alone offering all his great knowledge and advice now when he didnt have a clue when he was gaffa.HR is pants but i will continue to suffer due to my love for SUFC .
Traveling fans were great again yesterday

Thanks Ironfromafar, I will try this soon, by the way pal, you forgot about Coxes constant use of his
“REALLY REALLY”M I once counted them in one match, he had 63 “really realy” and 21 really,s, as you say it really really gets you down.[/quote]
Really ???
Fitz had the first goal covered but it took a deflection, should have done better with the second, second goal he’s let in at the near post.
Must admit to no noticing a deflection for their first goal i thought it had just swerved n turned in flight n caught Fitz flat footed.
…as we really lost 2 points on Saturday due to the ref and the red card
I’d put Fitzsimmons above those two. No way that 1st goal should be getting past him!
Yeah after watching the highlight vid Fitz was shocking to concede their first goal from that distance …however he did make a couple cracking saves as well when their guy was through n in on goal.
Reading the NL fans group its mentioned SSDS do take decent numbers away so could well surpass the 4000 mark on Tuesday.
im sticking to my 3-2 prediction ..just not sure who to …YET
Should be an open game and goals in this one for sure.
Heart says 3-2 Scunny
Head says 3-2 SS
att 3,828some decent highlights from Alfreton .. the jury still out on the Scales red card

Once again I failed to get coverage of the Scunny ,atch and gave up after ten minutes, the two main RH Stations had Hull City on one of them (which was ok because of playing away), but the other one had that shite Rugby on covering Hull v Leeds (playing at home), who in their right mind wants to listen to that shite, Rugby aLeague games should be played on a Sunday when people are having an afternoon nap.
So both stations were once again covering Hull matches, and when half time came in the Rugby game I switchewd it on to get the half time summery of the Scunny and all it covered was the bloody Hull Sity manager talking about signings and player contracts, a few adverts and a talk of the first half of the bloody rugby match. WHAT A COMPLETE WASTE OF TIME THAT RH IS, all that was missing was Copey Smiles playing some rap records,to wind my afternoon up!!!!!I was having the same issues until typed in BBC radio non league live commentaries and it went direct to the page to choose your game .. this page appears about 1 or 2 hours before the scheduled kick offs ..prior i was being directed to the BBC sport website , clicked on football from there i could never get to the non league commentaries.

i meant Cox .. beer goggles on
RH is bollocks … always having issues of some kind and very annoying they advertise pre match coverage to start 2-30pm – 8-30 pm here the same as all the other radio stations ..Radio Lincs , Kent Surrey , Tees etc they all seem to be exactly on time whilst Humberside still not gone live at 2-45pm and counting .. SHIT SERVICE
Lets hope the commentary id good and without Hope.
Expect Alfreton to set up similar to Curzon not as open as Scarboro were , will the Iron be able to break them down and find those incisive passes to split a defense ?
My heart says 2-1 to Scunny
My head says 1-1Safe journey to all who travel , enjoy the day

Like the sound of this lad .. spoke well all be it i had to listen carefully due to the Scottish accent , some good vid clips of his play and some goals hes scored…
i wish him well in his time at Scunny.
Having not trained with the team yet will he be in the mix for Alfeton today ??
I did see he made it onto the Iron official club photograph next to Chappo ….
Any explanation re both Law and Rance missing from the photo ? Law is injured and could have missed the call or at the docs but Rance has just gone AWOL with a mention hes been spotted in Ibiza. If Rance has left which with the current injuries would be strange surely there should have been a club statement
I don’t mind Hilton throwing money at players to get out of NLN immediately, as long as it’s affordable (at present whilst effectively squatting and decent crowds I would hope it is). If we stay at GP all season with no rent to pay, great. However it’s very precarious. It’s what happens dependent on the outcome of the court case and also next season. How sustainable are high wages for players? Impossible to know when we still don’t know where the additional money is coming from, which I assume is being pumped in? Not very transparent is it. My concern is that everything is ticking along nicely at present but it could all come crashing down like a house of cards at any point in the new year.
Cant disagree with any of that DM .. if the sh8t hits the fan anytime Jan Feb March it could derail the team in the midst of hopefully a push for promotion thus changing the season from one of success to abject failure and leaving the club up the creek without a paddle.
Back on topic … it seems the YT guy who initially came up with the crowd funding DH gig has now confirmed the plans demise …BUT… a new idea came to him in the blink of an eye and here is the sales pitch
BTW i am not knocking the guy , hes obviously SUFC crazy .. got claret n blue blood coursing through his veins.
BRING A MATE
The thought of Swan in a Lambo is hilarious ..would he even fit in one ?? … total miss match be like putting HP sauce on a custard slice !!

Just seen this crowd funding idea , made me chortle .. sacre bleu DH might have to sell the Roller .. what would the neighbors think ??
Hi guys (n girls).. just back from a hectic few days so missed catching up on the current situation.
Without trawling through the whole thread and face book posts PLEASE could someone inform me of the up to date details in BRIEF FORMAT as to what exactly happened at the court case and the ramifications.
Thanks in advance.
Im quite surprised by the away score predictions of some fans on social media, i think Curzon was a wake up call for how teams will set up against us making games (especially away) very difficult..
Im going for 1-1 at Alfreton

Ok thanks will give it a try but im working today riding shotgun with our lorry full of booze leaving to travel up North this afternoon, its the only way to avoid “broken” (robbed or drank) bottles ….
Not sure the internet would be good enough to stream, i do get RH commentary via my phone ok when on the road. -
