… yesterday emulated our feat against Leyton Orient all those years ago! 2-0 down at Borussia Dortmund in the 89th minute, won 3-2!
I remember that game Bobby, I was driving home thinking we had lost 2-0, after leaving early.
I had a worse one than that though, after driving with my lads to watch the Notts Forest FA Cup match one Saturday after phoning their ticket office to order our tickets, arrived to find that they had not saved them. So with Scunny at Lincoln City that same afternoon, we called at Lincoln on our way back to Barton, and entering the ground about six minutes after kick off, the game was 2-0 after two early goals, I think to Lincoln. The score was still 2-0 with five minutes to go, so we went back to the car to avoid the traffic, there were two late goals and the score ended 2-2, so after driving all the way to Notingham, then to Lincoln and the Lincoln game, we had a full day but never saw any of the bloody goals, then back to Barton ha ha! Funny thing is that I nearly always still lerave when just a few minutes remaining in games.

Those were the days RoamingBull, thats when Scunny used to play attacking football, five forwards whoever we were playing, also a great night when Scunny won 4-0 at Leeds, I think that Barrie Tomas scored all four goals, and I slipped full lenth climbing a steep muddy bank inside Elland Road.
At your age you should realise that leaving early is not a good idea.
I never leave until the final whistle has been blown. Even when we are getting hammered – and there have been a good few times, both home and away – I just can’t bring myself to leave.
Now have 3 grown up children who also stay to the bitter end!!

As pointed out already, they are innocent until proven guilty.
What I want to know is why, in 2023, are they going back to 2009? Have they not checked them out since then or are they incompetent?
It’s not only City who should be getting chased. There are a number of clubs around Europe who need reviewing.

Sticks to his word. Paid up and talking to players to bring in.
Have we stumbled upon a top chairman ?
Only yesterday you were asking if he was dodgy!!

Good game and excellent atmosphere.
Feeney was really strong when he came on. Like him a lot.
Their no 6 was quality. Lanky bastard as well.
If we keep playing like that, and convert a few more chances, we have an outside chance of staying up.
Enjoyed the day.

If everyone that has said they are going turns up we should be over the 4,000 mark.
My first 180 mile round trip for 4 years. I wonder why…….??

You don’t know how banal it is until you’ve read it…..
What’s that your life story.
Don’t give up your day job (if you’ve got one).
The op tells us not to get too giddy until we get the details. He then says “from what I’ve read” which is throwing more BS into the pot.
All this pretending & speculating has become really boring.
Why can’t people just wait & react to actual fact.

Yep this government loves going after the little people but when the little people’s houses get burgled or their cars stolen, they couldn’t give a toss. Mind you seems the police are into rape big time after today’s latest disgusting revelations, absolutely tragic the way this country is going.
Do you even think before you post?
1 copper out of 45,000 Met staff is a rapist and you condemn the lot of them.
Would you condemn the whole of Banbury (pop circa 45,000) if 1 person there is found guilty of rape? Thought not.

There are few actions without downsides, but some might say the publicity is a price worth paying to put pressure on Swann.
Looking through a few other forums and it has made it on to there. None were discussing our plight when we didn’t.
Yes people will discuss our plight. However, they will do nothing to help us.
We discussed Bury and others on here – but did nothing.
Any activity by us supporters should have happened 12 months ago. It is now too little too late. And before all you keyboard warriors get carried away, no I haven’t got involved. I have neither the time nor the inclination.

Can you tell me how you know he has moved the goalposts? I was unaware that anything has been made public.
Please also explain how you know he would rather sell to anyone other than the local consortium. As far as I know there have been no other offers made. Let me know if I am wrong.
None of us want this to drag on any longer than it needs to, but making up stuff just agitates people even more.

So it is 5million as stated in the accounts and not the fantasy figure of 900k Awayswego was suggesting.
To be fair to Awaywego, I believe he stated that the land was worth £900K. The £5M refers to the land, ground etc. etc. (Which is very close to the £5.3M listed on the books).
Let’s all pray that a deal is pushed through soon.

Sorry Les, but the vast majority of people would snap your arm off to buy a property with a 10, 15 or 20% reduction.
I think you over estimate the depth of feeling for the Club in Scunthorpe as a whole (when probably over half the support comes from outside the town).
