cant say im surprised it was always gonna end this way .. a very sad day indeed.

Players not being paid .. might as well just say fook it the clubs done

Thanks Mr Swan and assisted by DH the town will loose its football … this after Hilton said only a day ago I WONT LET THE CLUB DIE !! ..

[ironfromafar]

ive been real busy for a few days and only picked up info in bits n bobs but after reading DH thoughts on Scunny fans and banning orders etc my opinion is changing .. i think hes just pushing for all out war thus easing his own conscience so he can drop funding and walk away.

Can ayone see another buyer coming in ?? .. be a miracle on lottery winning magnitude.

I thought you didn’t do Social Media?

I started ….. joined sites to try n find out WTF is going on but turned out to be a waste of time for the reasons stated in this thread .. way too much going on , fans kept in the dark n fed information via SM when in reality no one know WTF is happening.

CMC ive never bothered in the past but is me engaging with SM a problem for you ??

If none of what Herbert is saying is true, then he’s doing far more damage to Hilton than any critics. He is claiming to be best buds, having 1 hour chats with Hilton regularly and making it sound like the information he is telling comes from the top.

Yes thats what i thought ..but the whole SM coverage of this is a mess .. Mr Herbert quoting DH then DW commenting differently chuck in all the additional contributors and its all so confusing.

Couple of posts today by David White on the Scunny fans group FB page stating moving to Gainboro will not happen YET.

THOUGH BY THE WORDING ITS COMING.

[ironfromafar]

commentary wasnt too bad here ..a few dips into silence but not as many as others are commenting .. liked the guy sitting in with the commentator ..(dunno his name missed it) he talked a lot of sense and nailed Ellis to the goalpost when he got Evans sent off .. he cheated , fained injury and pain to get the red card for Evans .. spot on.

[ironfromafar]

None of this makes sense .. the statement made by the board was just to set the tone for impending doom .. a move to Gainsboro is tantamount to the club folding .. i am so fed up of all this bollocks and fast approaching the state of ” i dont give a shit” .. not being in the Uk /Scunny and lots of other stuff on my mind here helps but i really feel great sadness for the town and all the local fans who will loose their football club… part of my history is being lost forever and more so future generations who wont have the chance to enjoy all the experiences having a local club brings.

Swan and Hilton have a lot to answer for ..

Our survival looks very unlikely.

Loss of Clunan, Beestin and Scales has been huge. That would effect any team at this level. They’re 3 of our best midfielders. Scales is back against Buxton, Beestin may be fit to come on and play 20 mins.

Sooner we get all 3 back the better. I still think if we get those 3 back and firing with Roberts somewhere down the line, we’ll be far too strong for this level of football.

You keep taking the tablets WGs .. those opto pills seem to be working great.

I wish i felt the same way ..alas i think we are fooked.

i was behind the goal that night away at Altrincham when Neenan kneed the guy in the bollocks n we lost 1-0 and missed out on a trip to Liverpool if my memory serves me right..
Messers Neenan and Botham did get into a fight at Tiffs when they assaulted a navy seaman call Steve Izzy Izbizter from Burringham whom i knew as i lived in Gunness at the time… HE WAS PAID TO DROP THE CHARGES.

Sadly i do not have any inside knowledge on Kieth Waters and why he resigned ..

sounds like Ellis for Chorley has just got Evans sent off.

[ironfromafar]

if we dont win today and also dont take all the points against Buxton i will start to worry about promotion regardless of what is happening behind the scenes ..

[ironfromafar]

yes Mr Hilton and Waters

Getting the 10,08 looks like it’s still running, a few have gone to Blackpool for either Friday night or the weekend it’s really not just about the football, one eyed Tommy was going do you remember him IFA how he’s not on a banning order god only knows.

I do rEcall a fella with one eye but would be telling phibs if i said i remembered his name.

Back in my days of full season home and away without fail it was so much more than the football,got some great memories that no one can take away ..

Talk of taking the NLN by storm has died and the more cautious fans saying avoiding defeat is a bonus .. wow how things have changed since the Athletic broke the news re DH

Todays performance will tell us a lot about the mind set of the players with regard to the turmoil the club is in off the pitch compounded by all the injuries.

Heart says 3-2 Iron
Head says 1-1

[ironfromafar]

Such is the critical situation it appears the club is on life support and sadly by the time my planned trip back to the UK comes around next year im predicting there wont be a football club in Scunthorpe.
as commented i doubt Hilton will find a buyer , players will be sold to pay running costs and debts therefore performances and results will suffer so remaining fans will hound out JD … i cant see any way this ends well .. a miracle of biblical proportions is needed.

Be interesting to see how the team performs with all the off the field issues going on , Chorley not a bad side by all accounts and i reckon HMS piss the league is all about to go pear shaped.

I was told the same by a York fan here earlier today. Very worrying if it happens, cold be the first of many to leave… can you really blame them the state the clubs in and possibility of not getting paid.

I went to the strip show at the Iron bar didn’t know they’d had one in the executive lounge, were they a better class of striped there IFA, couple of lads ruined it for everyone so we only saw them strip. always good fund raisers doubt whether it would be acceptable at the club nowadays.

If was defo upstairs in the club restaurant and the strippers were very attractive .. i had to be careful as i had just been circumsized a day or so before n the stitches were throbbing… in fact the doc at SGH said i was one of the oldest to be clipped there.i made a pair of slippers from.the removed foreskin and still wear them today.

sorry to veer off topic but this made me chuckle .. an over enthusiastic Millwall fan at the game v Leeds yesterday .. he needs to chill a bit 555555

[ironfromafar]

Must of been the Cox factor !!! i heard the York players were really really brave and showed some quality.

Sad times for Southend deep in the poop as we are.

[ironfromafar]

whats the score with the Exec lounge ..is open daily or hows it work ?? i presumed it only opened on matchdays and for functions , in fact the last time i went in there was circa 25 years ago n there was 2 strippers on (females) not that i was overly eager as just come out of hospital after an op n was a bit rough.

[ironfromafar]

is the FA cup really worth the effort .. wont be too fussed if we go out , sounds corny but concentrate on the NLN and getting out of it sharpish.

Must admit to be being a wee bit concerned re auto promotion as over the course of the season theres gonna be a few Curzon Alfreton and Buxtons to deal with.

WGs HMS piss the league is certainly wont be.

[ironfromafar]

indeed included both mash n roast tatties and the horseradish was applied after the photo, mash portion was a tad small and one of the sprouts rolled off the plate n mi Jack Russel scoffed it .. i forgot to take a pic of my spotty dick with custard but i can confirm it was glorious.

Washed down with a BBP Wunder lager from Belgium …
