Hands up here .. i was prophet of doom and a tad peeved Butterfield left and Elliot for that matter and i still think if both had stayed kept fit uninjured in with what we currently have less a couple of dead wood signings like Beck , Fish we would have won the title.

However there is no getting away from the fact the team has done well this term and lets hope it ends in promotion as another season in NLN may well end up being 5.

[ironfromafar]

i think both your facts are correct AWG .. Brackley were never on top of the league until yesterday

NOW THATS CALLED GREAT TIMING.

What I do know is last week, when we were voting with either hilton option vote or not we were given a list of players who were committed to stay, but only if we voted yes.
The star striker Montel Gibson was on that list. The club put out a offical update 29 hours after the vote he left !!!!!!

Well knock me down with a feather .. Hilton likes his lists, i recall a huge plot of land in Scunny was on his list to purchase and build a 20k stadium.

Mr Gibson left or released or ???? either way he dropped lucky as best off out of the ensuing carnage coming the clubs way.

Was Cam Wilson on that list ?

just spotted this upload .. went to Southport many many years ago but after yesterday i have added a visit to my bucket list.

i think Butler has been a big fat negative shit and he and his ppl should buggar off as we will get walloped at Hereford and fail miserably in the play offs due to his choices and his players being uninterested n lacking passion.

WE REALLY SHOULD NOT CARE SO MUCH ..but this is football and a club that needs saving not being a pawn in some ones fantasy .. Hilton is a cheat liar n fraudster and IMO MTFC have made a bad mistake today.

LIFE GOES ON

i would like to add

at this moment in time (semi pissed) the fans of MTFC have spoken n let it be .. just because i think theyve fooked up is neither here nor there .. i shall now return to my cave.

Fails to motivate playing staff to improve basics.

Overall poor performance should a change of career be considered.

Pretty much how i see it .. all this still learning means jack shit if still in NLN.

Without taking into consideration our delicate fiscal situation and who would replace them IMO AB n Scoff should be relieved of their duties if the remit which was PROMOTION is not attained ..

Contact Jerrys express as may need a bus if all the players jumping ship join AB n Co.

Can see us starting from scratch next season in NLN and AB isnt the guy to build a whole new team judging by his signings like Beck.

Absolutely can not see us beating Hereford tomorrow .. for the reasons mentioned elsewhere AB will be thinking too much about the opposition to set up to have a proper go , predict another lackluster Iron away showing .. Hereford will want the win more and get the points.

Hereford 3 Scunny 1

Hope as many fans as possible get to the Westlands FC club house pre match. ENJOY the food beers n weather.

Anything could happen. My hope is that he sets the team up to play football and win the game, thus doing all we can and gain some momentum for the play offs. It’s the hope that kills you.

AB isn’t going to change now – what we need for momentum is a 2nd clean sheet on the trot!! if that means 4 away games without scoring so be it, feel the quality of the clean sheet.

ABs defensive mentality has cost us auto promo , his 5 at the back earlier in the season and refusal to see its failings when all around could cost us big time and still he seems to care more about keeping a clean sheet then setting up and going out to batter teams.
Im not surprised hes been working on defending in training alas finishing chances needs addressing, it didnt matter against PBS we missed so so many but its become a bad trait that will happen in games where it does matter and chances must be taken.

We will not beat Hereford, i would bet the batteries for my grans pacemaker on it…

[ironfromafar]

just why Hilton even wants a football club is still a bit baffling ..other than his legacy oh hang on that was last time. I wonder if anyone at MTFC has asked WHY ??

Im predicting the vote will go his way and he will be 100% owner … so give it X months before the club are no more , shame as it looks like a nice little club one my say almost Ilkestonesk

[ironfromafar]

For anyone who missed it heres the Cal Roberts interview on why he did not move to Gateshead … IMO after reading it where ever we are playing next season he wont be at Scunny… cant blame the fella at least he had enough passion to stick around to try and get us promoted.

Roberts reveals why he turned down Gateshead move

I wonder how many Iron players n who Hilton has been tapping up teasing with a cash lump to sign

I’ve already stated, it’s 2 of our players, offering a substantial signing on fee.
Neither of them are taking up his kind offer!

Yes i know that ……. i also asked who the players are/were ?? unless its a secret

[ironfromafar]

question
Do loan players return to their parent club after the final game of the regular season or can they play in the play offs thinking of Fadera

[ironfromafar]

What happened to the fit n proper checks ?? this parasitic frauster is following the same M O as at Scunny and MTFC should take the 200k “donation” and say tatty bye.

WHAM time away from football didnt last long did it ??

I wonder how many Iron players n who Hilton has been tapping up teasing with a cash lump to sign but then his usual is to stop funding inc salaries and kits etc.

[ironfromafar]

Forget the title that went tits up with the KLT shambles..

As posted on another thread heres my permutation and most favourable route to promotion.

We finish 3rd so guaranteed a home semi final… which we win

Brackley loose in their semi final to whoever it is

At that point Scunny being the highest place in the league would have a home final which we could win who ever it is … (rather than having to go away to Brackley)

I have not been on moon dust just my opinion and this is way more likely than the title pigs in space miracle

Sharp did apply in the summer.

Thats interesting and got me thinking what would have been if he had been successful possibly coming in as player manager/coach…im guessing the style of play may have been a tad more attacking…
AR well see what the future holds alas i think AB n Co will be still here come KO next season

If we end up away in the final we’re probably screwed, even if we turn in to West Ham.

Well done DM nowt wrong with your eyesight as you spotted my deliberate mistake …. i do agree cant see us winning away in the play offs so my route is our best option and not out of the realms of possibilty.
Be very interesting come 5pm Saturday when the play off teams n order are known.

[ironfromafar]

im of the opinion many players will leave regardless where we are playing.. hopefully sharing a taxi with AB n Scoff (might need a minivan)

[ironfromafar]

The turd that wont flush .. easier to get rid of herpes than Hilts.

[ironfromafar]

The Irons most favourable route to promotion is thus.

Brackley loose in their semi final to whoever it is
