Storm Dave has had a change of name after triggering some information overnight. It will now be known as storm Rodney.
We can’t score. Our goal difference isn massively lower than any other of the top teams.
Can we also remember the time and effort that these people have put in to get the club back on an even keel.
It is a significant amount, and they have not been paid for it.
Also, they could have made a good few quid if they’d invested their money elsewhere.
We are lucky to have them.

And you was doing so well ironironiron until you mentioned Hilton.
Just look at the revenue streams he’s brought and trying to bring in at Matlock. And we have a begging bowl and very little else, well ok a wreath making workshop and a medium night.
Hilton may be doing good things at Matlock. I don’t know & I don’t care.
What I do know is did SFA for Scunny.
That’s what I am basing my views on.
For once I agree with Deereyme”s post above.
I think you will find that Swann did indeed “write off” £11M of debt. If we had still owned the ground and been that much on debt we would definitely have been wiped out (you could always up the Swanny!!)
He could easily have refused to let us have the ground back and looked to have developed it. He didn’t.
Whilst the man was a disaster for our club, I think it was down to stupidity and an unwillingness to listen to anyone that caused the problems. Unlike Hilton who was just an out and out chancer.
We are so fortunate to have come through those years relatively unscathed compared to other clubs. We still have a team to support and a ground of our own.

According to the BBC website Dec isn’t even in the squad!!
Christ I’m getting old. I checked it twice as well……

The fact that Boyce is retiring at the end of the season is irrelevant. He should be nowhere near the team based on his recent performances.
Yes he’s been a decent servant to us, but he is well past his sell by date.

New defence or new playing surface?
Can’t have both can we?
We need both + especially if we go up.
Completely new defence for me please. JB to stay as well. We will need cover at some point.

March 15, 2026 at 9:26 am in reply to: Abibliophobia On The Pros & Cons Of Promotion – Do You Want Promotion? #317560Stupid question. Of course we want promotion. We always want to be the best we can.
We have surpassed expectations this year. We could do so next year by surviving. It would be nice to have the opportunity to do so.
Interesting selection, possible 4-4-2 ?
Anything is possible…….
I can’t believe that people are moaning about Whitehall.
He’s on our side.
He needs to start.

Have you removed your head yet?
Thought not.
PS the rules of the site, which you are supposed to uphold, say no swearing.
Lol. Charming. Didn’t you used to report other posters for swearing, or was that someone else?
Yes I did. Quite often. However, nobody took any notice of me. So I’ve joined the club.
‘We need a head of recruitment next season, or at the very least a head scout to take charge.’
Positivity Dave to start a new gofundme. Joking aside, it’s not fair on Butler to be shoehorning in recruitment with trying to coach and manage. No wonder he gets annoyed at the critics.
Get real Derry. Butlers job came with the responsibility of recruitment. He will be judged on that, and the performance/positioning of the team, based on that.
We know you love him, but take your head out of his &#@+ for a few minutes to give yourself a breather.
On recent form, which I expect to continue this weekend and perhaps longer, and projecting ahead a little, I have a sneaking feeling we might slip out of the play-off spots, with not quite enough games to claw our way back in. Anyone else starting to feel this way?
No

Don’t need to rescue it at the moment the playoffs beckon then it’s anybody’s on the day, the cods proved that.
Echo the goalie situation by the way, many said they trusted the judgement of the management team rather than supporter’s who’d never played the game professionally.
That’s not looking good now.Even a monkey is right now & again.
Forest Green and Boreham Wood are both worse than us. Halifax, who are chasing, are no better.
We will make the playoffs.

If Butler fails in the play offs, will he lose his job like Jimmy Dean did after losing the play off against Boston ??
Not a very good attempt at clickbait
0-1 for me.
Sadly.you are both wrong!!
Putting my long hiatus from this forum to one side. I have to admit to all you fine folk that Roberts goals was erection worthy. No doubt about it.
Now I have gotten that off my chest I feel at peace.
That will be me now for several months. Typing that was monumental. Worth the wait.
No wonder you’re not posting much anymore.
If Robert’s goal was erection worthy, and you’ve just got it off your chest, you’ll be spending a lot of time with the doctor.
It explains many of your posts now. The rush of blood obviously leaves you somewhat light-headed……
Time to sweat boys.
They’ve got one back with 6 mins to go.
Fortunately, we don’t concede late goals……mmm hang on a minute!!

Gone for an AWAY WIN !
I will never change.
It is looking like you could be right.
Come on Iron.
See the club ignoring the weather yet again give a preview of the game but no mention of the pitch and wether there having a pitch inspection, guess it must be temperate down there, my grass is rock hard.
Down there?
You’ve got your map the wrong way up.
We never seem to run away with it these days, but a great result nevertheless.
Well done Hartlepool and Truro.
Swanny is/was a member of our/his website.
I agree.
We can’t remove him from our history.
They should be docked points for being unable to fulfil fixtures in accordance with the rules.
Playing home games at other venues mid season, without prior agreement, is wrong.
