ON recent events the current buzz around the club could all go tits up and lead to a dip in NLN form , uncertainty abounds for players n staff and teams now know how to set up against us.

At some point if DH walks (i hope he doesnt) im guessing you can not only kiss promotion goodbye but possibly the club as well.

Anything in the rumours DH is actively finding a buyer or just BS ?

Crikey, IFA, no, we don’t want that appearing in your autobiography do we. There’ll be enough sauce as it is!

I did leave this small tongue anal infringement out as it was so close to the book going to the photocopier shop ,,, i mean publisher and press .. sold one at todays launch ..to my daughter, ar well back to the grindstone ..this fame marlarkey isnt all its cracked up to be ..is it Siderite ??
Very sadly taking all recent events into account im predicting now for the record DH will have resigned by midnight this Sunday despite the adulation he will receive Saturday… will he show up at GP Saturday ??

Im sure ironeye and a couple of others will be bashing the bishop in great joy as our football club spirals out of control and into oblivion…. thats sad , very sad.

The fan base seems well n truly split, trust in DH is the biggest issue and im predicting he is looking at ways to get out wether by resiging or selling up. ..

im admitting to sitting on the fence as the only thing i give a rats arse about is the survival of SUFC ..

Pulled off fishy where the Scunny thread is red hot and in fairness lots of sensible comments by our black n white neighbors

Hey siderite how are you coping with the intense media Paparazzi activity ALA Harry n Megan since the Business Desk thrust fame upon us … i may have over estimated the number of biography photo copies i produced for todays launch as at the moment not sold one and only signed my autograph once to get into the hotel

Im guessing its down to the rainy season.

WHAM (White, Hilton, Anderson, Mellors) made a brief reference to the “dossier” – that put meat on the bones and confirmed or at least further heightened our scepticism and suspicions that all was not well.

It looks as if the crisis will deepen.
It looks as if there is only one way out for WHAM.

WHAM .. well done AA 9 OUT OF 10 FOR EFFORT AND IMAGINATION ..bet you were up all night thinking that up 555

I do agree this whole clusterfook is gonna get messier for sure .. and if i were abetting man twill end with DH chucking the towel in .. which unless another party comes in sharpish could be catastrophic for the club and town.

[ironfromafar]

I take umbrage at being called vile and it appears Bru needs to be “removed”-how would work then?

While i have had total support for SUFC since 1980 surely i can still have an opinion with regard to recent events that differs from the nauseating fawning over DH on the fans fb group page of which i log in and read but blocked from posting.

FTR .. i support SUFC unreservedly therefore support Hilton and hope he stays on despite his past mistakes.. i do not however feel the need to sing his name , have his face on my shirt or stick my tongue up his arse.

The Buxton fan sites are very active today … all sorts of strange comments strangely none mentioning the severe cramp suffered by subs who had been on the pitch for a sort period of time or their player doing a spot of break dancing to get the pen off Shrimpo… now seen the footage its ajoke call by the linesman.

Even a spirites n cod head getting in the mix slagging off Scunny fans n the ref…

Are we the NLN version of Millwall … nobody likes us n we dont care !!

After doing so much for the club, you can’t just leave.
There is no reason to do so.

What he has to do next, creating as much income as possible.
If I live in Scunthorpe (now I live in Thailand),
I would support the club every way I can.

Agree same here.

Might i ask where in Thailand ? city or rural ? 9understand if its private info) … i have my business head office based in Bkk but travel extensively across all the Isan provinces, my family home is in the North on the Thai Laos border only 50 min flight from Bkk

Sorry to go off topic

[ironfromafar]

Seems the NL panel stuck to the letter of the rules … though i still think a surprising i would of bet not this outcome.

Buxton fans must be spittin feathers
Scunny fans can allow themselves a rye grin ..

Let’s look at the facts. This club has again got a team to be proud of. We was hours from folding. To those with negative thoughts I ask you to go away and support another team. We have alot to thank Mr Hilton for. We all have done things which we later regretted.
Stay Mr Hilton and see this through , dont let the shit supporters ( if genuine supporters ) win. You can be the Boston Strangler for me , but how you have transformed my club in such a short time is amazing. Keep up the good work and good times and memories lay ahead.

My sentiment too … im hoping he stays and the club carries on progressing…lets wait n see but i think he may resign.

IMO and not forgetting im an overseas supporter ….reading many posts on here it beggars belief that so called true loyal Scunny fans want DH to go and thus the club more than likely fold , to me thats truly head shaking…seemingly so blase at the possible demise of SUFC and over what exactly.. did he murder someone ? a few porkies are far out weighed by what he has done for the town and its football club.

If the worst happens i hope the goodbye Hilton gang will be happy when the club has gone .. sounds to me like just a shrug of the shoulders for some.

Im sure this will effect things on the field as well expect a dip in form as the uncertainty mounts about the clubs future.

He’s admitted to not being truthful about his time in prison and I’m sure he now regrets his statements he has made in the past but either way and whatever your viewpoint we need our club to move forward and I don’t think he will be staying for long from his tone in the interview, hope I’m wrong but I think he’s going.

Yes sadly i think you could be correct IA … and if that does happen the real possibility of a town without a football club.. it seems a few on Bru wont be too bothered so long as DH is hounded out.

A fairly easy question to answer, with Hilton at the helm we have a club, without him – who knows. Some of us are desperate for our club to survive, others just want to see Hilton humiliated. Do I have concerns? Of course I do, but I also wonder why you and Interested Bystander are so keen to destroy an individual.
(Reply to Ruuger’s question)

spot on .. DH and have a club OR he walks and no club ..

what say you Ironeye ??

[ironfromafar]

so hes
convicted and served his time
told a few porkies

and also
saved the club from the brink of going under
bought a squad to compete
smiles on faces and abuzz around the place

Good mix to be an owner ??? maybe not but no worse than the UKs politicians and more

Scunthorpe still has a football club

btw if he goes n the club folds would you shed a tear ???

Bearing in mind DH did step in to basically save the club , now the best squad n set up for years in a good place to move back up the football ladder …so he has done a little bit of bird ( i know many who have) mislead on occasions but id much rather have him at the helm then the club go under.

Listening to his interview sounded to me like a broken man who will walk and who can blame him.. and our club is fooked.

Im sure certain members will be along soon posting with glee .

Broken man? It was a sob story, looking for sympathy, do you think a leopard can change it’s spots?

Yes i have been skeptical of DH and it was a sob story agree ..but i dont really give a shit if its between Scunny having a football club or not.

Do we really want to play that team again ? Bad enough we have to go to their place.
We are going to come against shite refs and rubbish, defensive teams all season. They were shite but we couldn’t do anything about it. Freak weather at 2 games is unlucky but, take it on the chin, learn the lesson and get on positively with rest of the season.
If it is ordered to be replayed does that mean Scales is still suspended for 3 matches as the Buxton one won’t count ?

Good points TJO … whilst i remain enthused and positive with regard to the first few games of the season i do have lingering thoughts that if we cant break down teams who set up like Curzon n Buxton it will obviously lead to points dropped and possibly a play off spot at best… take into account injuries suspensions and its safe to say WGs HMS piss the league has hit the rocks already.

[ironfromafar]

Well done that man .. i shall hunt down the YT vid highlights.

Seems Carver n Barrows are both doing well away on loan .. even though the wheels have come off the Ilkeston wagon of late.. not heard much about Poulter n Robertson at their respective loan clubs but i see both are languishing in the bottom zone in the NP league.

I hope that, whatever happens tomorrow, we don’t have high tensions. Probably a forlorn hope, and we will have “I told you sos” from ironeye, defenders saying the journalist must have an agenda against Hilton and pointing to his response on Facebook as gospel truth. Then there might be the burner accounts for some more abuse, slander and death threats.

Anything could happen with the referee’s report and the Micky mouse authorities.

I’m not bitter about the result, we weren’t at the races. But how can you award Buxton the points with a minimum of 5 minutes still to play- more like 7/8 with stoppages.

Yes i too am not bitter re the result as Scunny were very very poor and Buxton came to do a job n did it well ..aided by inept officials the weather and some of the worst time wasting ive seen something which contributed to the lenghty added on time and also not mentioned by the Buxton manager in the newspaper article post match whinge.
Im of the opinion the ref just wanted to get out the building after realizing he had dropped areal bollock and his report will be softened solely to to protect his actions therefore IMO result standing no replay.

Excellent piece well said jasper .. you need to forward that to the club and NL
