To lighten the depressing mood…….
Ernest Pawn is a thoroughly nice, decent, honest chap who always fulfils his promises and is a committed ardent Iron fan.
Lex Icon is 3rd in line for the England job when Southgate leaves behind Steve Housham and the bloke who sits in row C seat 65 of the Whartons stand with the squeaky voice and spends all match shouting at the linesman.

It has now become embarrassing we are getting outplayed every week at home. The second half performances descend into chaos, clueless absolutely kin clueless.

FA doctrine is on negativety and defence, Southgate epitomizes that train of thought.
Sadly as suggested he is the most successful England manager for some time without actually winning anything. Despite having a squad of world class players.
Most English managers and coaches have the same mentality towards the modern game and natural goalscorers/strikers who can play in the box are becoming less and less as they are expected to traipse back behind the ball all the time to defend.
Just look at the number of coaches/managers in the Premier League who are English or British.
To finish on a disturbing fact no English manager has ever won the Premier League.

Sorry we need a striker.
In Loft with Scrimshaw playing off him we may have a decent goalscoring pairing.
Beestin will wade in from midfield other than that no real regular scoring threat.

Oh I will be there alright.
I once vowed that no Chairman, manager or set of players would ever break my resolve or undying love and loyalty to my club.
Unlike some my word is my bond and a matter of honour.
Trust me all three elements have been testing me for several seasons. But I am a stubborn bastard.
In making that vow I never said I would stand by and watch idly as my club is wronged now, in the future or the past.
And I am not!

What would actually be sold and bought?
There is no tangible asset of any value, somebody wishing to own a football club in this Town would be better off setting up from scratch playing non-league and working their way up the football ladder!
I must point out that Ernest is doing this in reverse order.

Annual accounts going forward there should be no depreciation costs for the ground.
Glanford Park seems to have disappeared somehow!

If you can’t beat em join em!
I too have gone cashless and wont be imparting with any at the Ernest Pawn Stadium.
Its novel but I fear it will soon be a Crowdless Stadium.
Maybe the supporters panel can raise it at their first meeting? Whereby the club will have umpteen reasons to justify this latest “Browning 9mm hole in a favoured peg” and no doubt some handy statistics from the 4/5 home games they will be based on.
Well done Ernie another brick in your development wall and sod of grass dug up.

By the time it becomes available in December and sold out by February we wont have to suffer long.
Then in March we will be voting for the next kit where once again we will all select a favourite 1st and then 2nd choice.
Where we can never find anybody who actually voted for the eventual ‘winner’ and have forgotton what we voted for cos once you have voted there is no record of the choices (but that might be me being non tecky!).

We have had testing times in the past and pure loyalty to the club drove us on and kept us supporting.
Ernest has made it all about himself and we have no loyalty to him whatsoever, hence many dejected supporters whose loyalty has been abused once too often.
Its not our club anymore and we do not feel cherished as supporters but more a commodity who will keep accepting and stumping up the cash.
Wrong.

I admire your optimism and rallying call.
But it should be coming from somebody at the club, who cant because it is falling on deaf ears.
The squad is shite on paper and will be once again shite on the pitch. Apart from Loft where is there a regular goal scorer?
Oh and just for good measure it will be all the supporters fault for not backing Ernest’s great vision.
