We seem to have got bogged down on the Argie game.
But TTs squad was sadly lacking all through and quite obviously lacked direction and leadership especially in defence where Maguire would have excelled.
Also when you look outside of Kane, Bellingham and Rice where were regular goals going to come from?
Foden and Palmer can unlock games by running at teams through midfield. An element that we sadly lacked, apart from Rice.
TT is better than Southgate admittedly, and will hopefully have learned from this world cup.
The Argies stopped us playing first half and broke up our play before we could get any flow, they were never going to play like that second half. I would also question where were the grafters to dig you out in that situation, too many light weights in the squad for me.

The best form of defence is attack!
If you’re in their half they ain’t in yours, and not many team score from inside their own half.
It was like Watching any FA St George trained coaches team, utter crap, as Alan Shearer said we had no outlet once Kane and Bellingham dropped deep and the ball just kept coming back on us. No Scunny fan needed telling that though as we see it week in week out.
1-0 and we fooked it up.
Love em both, can’t wait to wear em in Garbo’s, Tiffs and Moments.

Walter Blunder was not very complimentary about Butterfield after he left, seemingly he must have changed his mind. I hope he changes his mind on Billy Sharp.

It certainly was Neil Pointon’s last game he went from Preston to Everton and signed.
It was 84 played in the afternoon due to the miners strike.
It was memorable for another reason the late John Windsors wheelchair bound mother had a micarulous event, sitting pitch side she jumped out of her chair and ran to the touchline when we scored.
I was one of the 23.

Is there anybody out there who has lost somebody with a ‘vowel’ in their name?

Oh dear another sad moment in club v fans probably irraetreavable after being played out very publicly on here and the Face-clap site which unsurprisingly offers an alternative view .
This matter should/could have been handled very differently and very quietly.This is a product of Babs and co surrounding themselves with sycophants as aired elsewhere on Bru and people within the club not being able to accept at times a different viewpoint.
It has spoilt tomorrow for me already before a ball is even kicked.

Full facts and information needed.
There appears to be a grain running through the club which doesn’t like criticism.
All the people who saved the club are to be applauded and those having put there own money in deserve recognition and credit for that.
But it doesn’t make them right, nor does it mean we less well off are less passionate about our club or less correct on some things.
If true I hope the situation can be rectified sensibly.

Nice to see you on here Ironrob, did the club put you up to it?
The fans on here tend to be long serving and loyal to Scunthorpe United FC, the club itself is their priority and not any individual who may own, manage, work for or play for it.
Neither do they take kindly to being preached to about their club by ‘five minute fans’ who appear from nowhere and eventually disappear even quicker.
Some of your predessors however have slated other supporters and other supporter groups, especially Stuart, Jerry and Earl.
The club is not helping your cause either by hand-picking supporter representatives and not engaging with others who may offer challenge or new ideas.
For the record, of all the owners, of all the managers, of all the staff, of all the players and of all the celeb supporters, we on Bru are still here and still supporting and will be until are toes are pointing up!
Just like we are sitting now waiting for the accounts, waiting for plans for the future and worrying if our club is safe and will still be safe going forward, just as we have done for the past x amount of years, 50 plus in my case.

Stuart played in some of the poorest teams the Iron have ever had, but along with others as individuals they could play football.
Stuart was a true gent and always had time for the fans, but more importantly he gave 100% wherever ever he played, and he played in almost every position except keeper.
Was a neighbour of staffy on Goodwood Drive.

I’d have him back tomorrow, he would have scored a bag full at NLN and we would have been champions.
