Not interested in tweets or facebook postings and all that crap, just know that six games is no time at all to be passing judgement but it’s just my opinion.

Cant believe some fans are calling for jimmy to go after such a short time .. yes he has been supported by the new chairman but remember what he arrived into and the fact 11 new players have arrived .. it takes time and he should not be judged until mid to late next season where ever we are playing be it the NL or NLN.. fans should also cast their memories back to a short time ago when it was very possible the town would not have a club at all.

Like may others im not getting some of Jimmys tactical decisions selections and formations leading to some poor displays but give the fella some time we were nailed on to go down when he arrived and it appears the gamble to sign so many newbies may have backfired.

Disagree, there’s still a chance but we’re getting to a point where we have to start winning and that starts tomorrow. Anything other than a win is no good.

Yes still a very slim chance of survival and agree with your last sentence 100% .. even a draw is no good… is it snowing yet is the game likely to be off ?

Snow !!! is it forecast ?, dont follow the weather back home but strangely i do miss snow and frosty mornings as well as fish n chips and the footy… cool season just ending here with at least 3 to 4 months of nasty heat and humidity before monsoon rainy season in July.

As i put on another thread my line up would be 442 and if it happens will change my prediction from a draw to a Scunny win… get Elliot in the goals and he will come good n slot a few in.

Well they certainly won’t on Tuesday Cliff 2500 would be good crowd after Saturdays performance. Maybe the thread should be “Hilton – honeymoon over?”

What recent weeks have shown is that the support is there in the local community and beyond IF the feel good factor can return , by that i mean playing good attractive passionate football and dare i say WINNING REGULARLY .. if / when we get relegated im guessing if we are playing well and around the the top of the table the attendances will be good..there aint no easy leagues and an immediate return is not a given has to be earned.

Back to the sale of the club ..in hindsight the new manager and many player signings do seem a bit rushed n rash and bound to cause problems in finding a settled line up quickly..

Thats in the past .. publicly the chairman has to say the right things but im wondering if Mr Hilton is in the back of his mind hes ruing buying the club and also making decisions so quickly re changes at the club.

Yes im also predicting a draw .. 1-1

Like to see Elliot n Bennett start up front and wingers .. we will see

[ironfromafar]

This honeymoon has been cut short by bad weather, food poisoning a burst condom or premature ejaculation metaphorically speaking obviously and the feel good buzz has all but gone as will the decent attendance numbers…shame it all looked so positive a month ago.

yep i reckon too many new faces brought in one lump most on the same day n other following thereafter also at speed, in hindsight this was always bound to cause issues finding a settled side quickly , a new manager was appointed also very quickly .. Mr Hilton decided to go that route as quote they needed to work quickly to change the footballing side of the club in an attempt to avoid the drop this season… well its not gone too well up to now has it .

[ironfromafar]

just watched the highlights (didnt take long) by no means taking anything away from what was a terrible performance in all ways possible buy the Iron but the Eastleigh penalty was very dubious and with Scunny having two legitimate shouts for pens waved away by the ref who in my opinion was as bad as all the players on the pitch ..VERY POOR.

Pretty much nailed on for the drop even though other results went our way again yesterday.. 5 games into Jimmy Dean reign and its not going to plan is an understatement with possibly too many players to choose from and how to use them correctly can be an issue where as a smaller squad as Nelson was working with means a set line up forged relatively quickly and less chopping and changing led to better football.

Going down with a whimper more likely than a fight tho its not over yet and a miracle is still possible.

[ironfromafar]

please can some one post a link to the commentary ..thanks

Dam only one .. 10 be better

[ironfromafar]

Im.probably a tad younger than you 555 ..

cant recal much about pre decimalsation
I was a contract painter/ sprayer n specialised in fire proof coatings , later in life i worked at Scunny steel.works as a plate layer for then Grant Lyon Eagre then to.Gunness docks at the petrochemical plant
My old man worked as a weighman for Steve Wharton at Grove wharf
life took.a strange turn and ended up.tother side of the world, got my own bizz here but approaching retirement n kids gonna take over hopefully so more time to travel back for visits n the footy ..NL or NLN i be hapoy just to get to some games even how rough its been last few years i still missed it n be good to see how many of the oldies are stil going.

[ironfromafar]

Computer says NO ..

What day is pay day last day of the month or first of the month ? .. Feb 28 day month , an away game on the last day of the month and system set up for direct debit , i doubt the staff get crunched up notes n coins in brown pay packet like us oldies use to.

My first weeks wage was 17 quid i remember thinking wtf can i spend it all on .. after gimme mam 5 quid lodge that i borrowed back every week

[ironfromafar]

Just watched the YT highlights on Stones TV .. about 10 minutes in all and seemed to me like a very scrappy game (take off the S more accurate) , their goal very lucky as Chapman had the shot covered n took a nasty deflection, basically two bad teams and 1-1 a fair result that did nothing for either club.

For me he would not be here yet. I would have given Nelson the job till the end of the season and re-evaluated from there. The thing is he is here so he’s got my full backing and let’s hope we achieve what most people think will be a minor miracle and survive in this league.

I would have also kept Nelson until the end of the season ..alas i didnt buy the club even after selling my coin collection , art work watches Jewrlry and the wife (bargain discounted price) i still came up short..

Now he is here Jimmy should be given time and i agree .. judge him this time next year wherever we are playing.

Loose tonight and its curtains , win and the miracle is still on .. a draw not real much use to either IMO

Listening to Mr Hilton it seems he and Swan did as part of the club purchase sign a legally binding contract for both Hilts to buy and Swan to sell the Ground and land as part of the deal ..in the recent interview Hilton confirmed the deal for the club was done quickly incorporating an GP/land agreement signed also knowing this would take time to sort out .. Hilton also said it was imperative to get the club and playing side sorted out ASAP in an attempt to stay in the NL this season… ALL SOUNDS COSHA TO ME .. but i wont be parting with my 1899 until its sorted signed sealed n delivered and the septic puss filled carbuncle Swan is gone , which according to Mr Hilton is within days / weeks ..

I hope the slow sale of shares doesnt mean the Swan sewage smell will linger and trust Hilton is a more astute businessman to allow hinself to be ripped a new arse…time will tell.

[ironfromafar]

could someone please post a link for the commentary … theres a possibility im being blocked on the search at some point from where im located. Once ive got a direct link it plays ok.

2.45 am KO here the locals think im bonkers alas they only know the EPL and seem to be a fan of who ever is winning change teams with the wind.

[ironfromafar]

I would go as far to say a an unthinkable defeat tonight is the relegation coffin lid going on with nails hammered in along the way there after.

i predicted 2-1 Scunny a while ago for this fixture and gonna stick by it..

Need 2 upfront. Leake is no better than Daniel and doesn’t have the experience. Still dodgy at the back and Smith looked solid when he came on the other day. Play with some with for once with actual wingers and get some service to the strikers for once.

Thats pretty much my selection WGs .. on bench Bunker , Fewster , Feeney , Whitehouse , Foster.

[ironfromafar]

reading a post by a fella on SUFC Face book page re Fewster reiterating the lads quality and amazed hes nor been involved … commented hes a future England player

[ironfromafar]

going on radio commentary and highlights as i do most of the time its difficult to see which players Dean was alluding to re not giving 100% / not being committed … (loan players or signed).. can anyone shed any light on this ?

Needs to go 442 with wingers, this is a win or bust situation. Dean has said the Barnet game won’t define us/our season, he said the same for Wrexham and then again yesterday. So law of averages would say this game will define it….. I hope we give it a real go but I doubt we will.

When Bru eventually interview Hilton would be good to know the pricing for what will be part time regional football, which was pretty nailed on whilst Swann had his grubby hands on the club.

Prediction 2-0 maidstone

Totally agree with your first paragraph .. 442 inc 2 wingers , Elliot up front with ??.. this really is shit or bust so have to go for it.

Cant see Maidstone beating us but there again i had us nailed on for at least a point at BW

[ironfromafar]

Cant see the changes being that widespread Cass … if you had put Foster back in goal twood ov been a total clean sweep… very doubtful or were you tongue in cheek posting ?? ..either way if Jimmy D goes with your speculative line up 100% i will microwave my Y fronts and eat them.

2-1 to Scunny … we cant be that bad again ….can we ?

Why do other teams get a ” new manager bounce?” How many more managers before we get one?

We also had the new owner bounce factored in as well..seems the script isnt panning out as planned or hoped.

A lady posted on face book ” we should be grateful we still have club ” and i agree but after years of Swans doom n gloom i think every fan was hoping for some respite from the depression, obviously this is going to take time and my fear is we get bogged down for years n years in non league NL NLN status indeed will we see football league status again within the generation of fans who post here?
