It’s so easy to call anyone who criticises a fickle supporter.
It wasn’t because we lost on penalties that I am so disappointed.
It’s not the fact that we finished second after the scariest season of my life that I am openly critical.
Dean should not have been appointed in the first place. He should not have been allowed to take us into this season – although we still had Hilton them and nobody knew what was happening.
It’s the total lack of progression that makes me mad. We all know that we had the best squad in the league. Occasionally we played some great football – my mate from Oxford met met away at Banbury and said that we played like Brazil!!
Even Burney would have got us into the play-offs. So Dean has failed.
He is out of contract, so just let him go. Please find us someone with a proper Plan A and a structures Plan B. Two up top and proper substitutions.

Gurney, we may well have sacked too many managers, but I believe that the majority of supporters were in agreement with all of them. After all, they were sacked for a reason.
Just because we have sacked a number of managers dies not mean we should stick with one who has produced some incredibly boring football and has failed to achieve what was asked of him. And he had money.
The next man will likely have a lot less money and just as great an expectation on him. And we may get it wrong. However, it would be negligent to stick with JD.
As for who, I personally don’t know. But there will be a fair number of current managers who would be keen to join us. They will believe that they will be the one to return us to the promised land. Let’s hope that we choose the right man (or Lady!!).

“a really nice guy and genuinely loves and wants the best for this football club”
There over 6,500 people like that at the game yesterday. I wouldn’t want any of them managing the team either!!
We need a fresh start with a fresh manager.
I will attend far less next season if JD stays as well. Mainly because his style bores me most of the time.

Maybe the club think we still play at the old showground. Very patronizing telling the people of Scunthorpe where the car parks are.
Many supporters don’t live near Scunthorpe. It’s a good few years since I’ve been in to town, so I have no idea where you can park.
They are trying to help people. As Deerey said, you’d have complained if they hadn’t said anything.

I was so confident that we would finish second but, yet again, the team have other plans.
57 years and I still get surprised……

Nobody was talking about him last week, or for the last 5 years or so.
He was not a good manager @ Scunny. He has done very well at Coventry. These things happen.

I still wouldn’t put money on us…..

The time came a long time ago!!
We can’t afford to sack him, but we can send him on gardening leave until end of season (and should have done so a good while back).
Anybody could do a better job.

Based on the positive feedback of people on here and on FB (I know!!), I thought I’d support TSG & the Club by purchasing a burger.
After queuing for 10 mins I was handed a foil wrapped burger. It had no heat in it at all.
Rather than leave the area, I unwrapped it at the kiosk – and it was stone cold (and I do not mean luke warm). I returned it to the youngster who had served me. He threw it in the bin and said I’ll get you another one. This one was wrapped in front of me, but was still not piping hot and was far from exciting.
The result is that I have, yet again, stopped buying in the ground.
I can not be alone in this decision. How much is the Club losing to external suppliers?

Les didn’t say anywhere that Fitz hadn’t co tributes this season. He has.
However, he does wander around his area a lot and he often loses out, or makes a mistake,when he shouldn’t. Definitely room for improvement.

Can we stop with all this “get a grip with reality” and “let’s be happy that we still exist” nonsense.
A bad performance is a bad performance. The players and the manager need to sort themselves out and find a consistent level at which they can perform. They have a long way to go still.
We are all aware of what could have happened, but it doesn’t excuse what we are currently seeing on the pitch.
