why is everything so cloak n dagger / secretive .. the fans should be informed re players at much as poss especially if being asked to part with nearly 2k in a share option ..

Mr Hilton , Jimmy ..MORE GENERAL INFO n UPDATES FOR FANS ,,,,,PLEASE .. Taft , Shields , Fewster ??? there i shouted it loud enough.

[ironfromafar]

I find myself constantly waking up in cold sweats dreaming about Hilda Ogden and back to back Scunny wins .. i may need help as its always accompanied by a raging boner ..Maybe Jimmy is finding it hard also ………. his starting 11 what can get us out this mess.

Shields picked up a knock ..we were told .. Fewster not heard nowt, only silence.

[ironfromafar]

Didnt Yates live with Stan n Hilda Ogden (is Coronation St still on the telly, bunch of alkys never out the Rovers.)

Back in the real world … fter the initial signing hype and subsequent positive comments there is something a tad strange re Fewsters total non involvement … injured perhaps ?

[ironfromafar]

i received a pleasant reply to my email from Glyn Sparks at SUFC Commercial department in which he included the Application form plus terms and conditions for the 1899 share gig.

The same documentation is now available on the main SUFC website ..but here it is for anyone interested.

After listening to Mr Hiltons comments on the share option plus an update re the status of the ground re Coolsilk i note payments are being excepted now alas IMO its prudent to wait until this issue is cleared up before making any final decision.

ive watched this tackle numerous times from different angles ….. HE DIVED / CHEATED ..also no contact was made with the part of the leg shown in the pic “he” posted (i also note nail polish had been removed), any chance of an injury would have been nearer the ankle.

I cant find many fans actually agreeing it was a pen even Wrexham fans say it was iffy

Second pen was ligit 100% a pen and i blame Chapmans wife for that !!!!

Fosters fumble was a basic error but he did make numerous great saves during the 90 mins, Chapman in between the sticks that fumble may not have happened …

Back to his partner and very selfish going into labour at a very unfortunate time maybe the club should fine Chappo so in the future he times his sausage action so any birth is in the close season… give him a supply of claret n blue condoms from the club shop apparently they taste of meat pie maybe some one can confirm.

anyways ..10/10 for the dive Mullin

Still waiting for clarification on lots of things, but if everything adds up then some friends and I will be looking to purchase a share as a group; is there anyone looking else to do this and if so, how will they go about it ?

Same here still waiting for clarification on quite a few points both legal and otherwise.

My Son and I being based overseas and only traveling back to the UK rarely (once yearly pre covid) allowing family and nominated friends in Scunny using some of our share privileges is important to me.

** As yet i did not receive a reply to my email from SUFC Commercial dept.

The next two fixtures are massive … tough game at BW followed by Maidstone which is huge for the obvious reasons, praying for back to back wins which change everything and not an impossibility the way we are playing, 4 points from the 6 would be ok so long as we beat Maidstone.

Prediction 4pts
1-1 at BW
1-2 at Maidstone

Poor ref decision for 1st pen – blatant dive and cheats prospered. The 2nd one – wrexham player managed to get both feet into where Foster was trying to redirect the loose ball, went down very quickly but clearer than the first for certain. Get back to back wins and we will rise up the league for certain.

when was the last time we managed back to back wins ????

Remaining positive ..looking at the remaining fixtures the only one i would bet my favourite left testicle we wont get points in is Notts County ..all others i feel we can get points , lets hope most are 3 points n not draws.

Maidstone is massive .. in fact all the last 15 games are.

It’s very thin on legal detail isn’t it?
how much do the 1899 own 50% or less?
Who will administer it.
Who make major decisions about infrastructure, are they liable for any debts incurred by the land company. I could go on

In no way am i being negative but I too found the initial idea to be very light on detail … it left many areas both legal and otherwise unexplained… it was like a test the water for any interest.

Today i emailed the club to request full documentation as i had many questions that needed to be covered.

[ironfromafar]

I have emailed the commercial department at SUFC requesting full details of the share option and also tagged a few personal questions, i will post any reply i receive.

possible promotion relegation changes ..update

https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/wrexham-efl-ryan-reynolds-mcelhenney-29268825

[ironfromafar]

is the share allocation limited to the number of shares any one person or business can purchase ?

Overseas based fans wishing to purchase can do ?

[ironfromafar]

A few questions need clarification but sounds like a great offer if all the Is are dotted and Ts crossed… generating 3.6 mil pounds for the club.

[ironfromafar]

Without a couple of injuries cant see Taft getting much if any first team action anytime soon ..expect him to be gone soon.

2.45 AM KO here and decided to stay up .. im hoping BBC Radio Humberside will be ok same as it was last Saturday v DnR

Looks good to me .. why Whitehouse instead of Butterfield ??? i would start with the later and sub for Whouse at the right time ..(ie when we are 4 nil up with 20 mins to go joke)

Cam Wilson hard to leave out as well.

As its looking are we going to see much of Shields , Ferris as a starting player?

Did Brewster go back it was rumoured he had

[ironfromafar]

Chapman
Ogle BRF Martin ? Leake
Bunker Butterfield Beestin
Elliot Mcdonagh (if fit)

[ironfromafar]

this one defo NOT a nil nil .. im seeing a few goals and hope the Iron come out on top.

My 3-1 prediction for the Daggers game was a few seconds from coming in ..

Cant see them resting players after loosing ground to Notts in the last game , Mullin up front is a hand full to police so gonna be very tough

Be great to come away with a point ..3 would be fantastic

Prediction 3-2 just not sure who too.

[ironfromafar]

saddened to hear this news and now knowing the circumstances maybe he would have been better stepping down and away from the his role at the club at this terrible time .. having had two members of my family commit suicide, they say time is a great healer alas to this day my thoughts are never far away from both these very sad times in my life.

Attendance circa 3,800 .. 77 from Daggers .. a tad lower than expected ..was hoping for 4000 up.

[ironfromafar]

Must say being shocked at the starting line up is an understatement..

As previous mentioned ..
Foster ?
Mcdonagh ?
Sheilds ?

Whose playing the front line with Elliot ?

Does the attendance look good ??

1-1 now

[ironfromafar]

i wanna see the team go at it full on today … start with the most attacking line up possible and get into erm .. MAYBE with Shields on the left wing Ferris right , Elliot n Mcdonagh up front.

Looking forward to see Jimmys starting line up , it will tell us a lot about his intent for the rest of this season and next.

I personally can’t stand her. I remember she once was commentating on a premier league match and the language been used, she came across as though she was a new age, football demi god.

1st, 2nd, 3rd phase. Transition this and transition that…she was speaking as if football was rocket science. Gave me the impression she was trying to intentionally over complicating the game in order to come across as some kind of football genius.

She was commentating with Gary Neville I think at the time, he was talking in simple terms about not getting enough people back to defend and getting caught out of position, she then blabbed on for a solid 5 minutes talking about multiple phases of play and various transitions.

I was thinking at the time, please shut up. Nobody else could get a word in edge ways.

Agree there WG .. i think she sees herself as some sort of football influencer, and until she changes gender or grows a penis should stick to washing up,ironing, mopping floors and making a cuppa tea n bacon butty.(can i say that?) ..oh i did already !!

Every game I watched under Hill we were always set up not to get beat rather than tyring to win.

[/quote]

Spot on .. in hindsight Hill was a disaster both tactically , selection of players and operated an overall very negative “how to stop the opposition playing/scoring ” set up rather than attacking his brand of football was dull and uninspiring no wonder it/he (and Swan) took us to where it did.

[ironfromafar]

i have revised my prediction

Scunny 3 DnR 1 .. Elliot to score 2 on his debut (1 a pen) and Ferris , DnR pen

Hoping for another big loud proud crowd … must lift the players knowing they have such support.

Or same back 4 and Gk

Butterfield Fewster Whitehouse
Wilson, Beestin or Feeney in the no 10 role
Front two of Elliot and Mcdonagh

A lot of options now so god knows what he’ll go for, we’ll have some good options off the bench now. You could even go for Ferris as part of a front 3.

I forgot about him !

No place for Shields ??

It really is pure speculation with so many options for Jimmy to work with… after looking again its very difficult to even guess but here are my 4 guarantees to be in the starting line up

Chapman (New No 1 first choice with Foster as back up)

Ogle (been on fire recently)

Elliot Mcdonagh (Assuming Deans first choice pairing up front)

**********

Options for Ferris n Shields as attacking wingers , Midfield remains hard to call as does who to complete the back 4 with Ogle.

[ironfromafar]

bet yer hoose on 2 pens in this game

[ironfromafar]

3 points a must Saturday anything less we are fooked …..again

[ironfromafar]

Going back a month not having any real choice of players its been turned on its head and could field two sides .. i had totally forgotten about Shields.
