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.

Maybe UTI-99 can enlighten us all on how the delay to the hotel aspect of the Sands Venue Blackpool is impacting on the development at Glanford Park.
Only the Wild West Diner and Spy themed bar are open as yet to the public with reports that it will be another year before the rather impressive 5 star venue is opened.
PS tee’d somebody up for cowboy and bond baddie references!
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!

Ian Ormandroyd in an Iron shirt.
Ian Miller also.
How about Laurel Moral-Quibbles and Oswald Goner or Olwen Browsed?
I have been quite impressed with the Iron in the two friendlies thus far. Look to playing a more traditional 4-4-2.
Watson, Collins, Davis, Taft, Onariase, kenyan, Beestin, Loft, Thompson and O’Malley all look decent.
The lad at 4 v Hull City was very impressive great vision, good range of passing and covered a lot of ground.
Greene was wearing the captains armband v Burton but yesterday Davis wore it first half and never stopped talking/organising. Taft wore it 2nd half.
Well done to Lex Icon might not be all doom and gloom afterall.
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.

When he is signing your autograph book tonight remember to smile nicely.
Oh and try not to whisper rude names to fellow bru’sters who may or may not be enjoying the game at the Ernest Pawn Stadium.
Enjoy!
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!).

PS NAFS is an anagram of FANS.
Can’t see what the excitement is about, if anybody has bothered to read the club jargon its having a say on OFF-field matters ie quality of the sausage rolls, amount of paper in trap 3 of the Cluggy stand etc etc. Ernest wont even be there to not hear the voices of fans.
We all do qualify however under ‘distant supporters’.
Wee Willie was injured in training at catering point 3, it has been alleged. Apparently he dropped some hot onions on his hand and banged his head on the underside of the counter when cleaning them up.
Bax Mell was dispatched to Thorne on behalf of the Grimsby Telewag as the Digital Content reporter was busy moving from Year 7 at Tollbar Academy upto year 8.
Bax was met at the gate by Mrs Hetty MacSavage sweeping the doorstep and cobbles. She refused to let Bax in to see Wee Willie and would not deny or confirm the injury.
She did however let on that Wee Willie preferred the nickname of ‘Tosh’.
Leanne Mayonnaise CEO refused to comment on any individual employee, but stated for the record.
“The club chairman has a certain track record on signings. This will not be the first or last old Tosh to be signed.”
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.

The toxicity has been created by one person and one person only.
From the moment he came to the club many of us thought he was full of himself and his own importance. Many other supporters bought into Ernest and his claims.
Sadly the latter group have now joined the former and the majority of the supporters have no time for this man or anything he says or promises.
Taking the ground was the last straw, when it was his money he could make all the wrong choices he liked. Turns out it was our money and then we resented all the wrong choices he made at our expense.
Now he is stuck in a corner, having taken what was not his to take with nobody listening to him anymore and nobody believing him either.
He is also serving up youth which did not work last season and he even had the audacity to blame some supporters for wanting that.
We are football fans who love the beautiful game and will not be mugged off by Ernest anymore.
Its time alright time for him to go.

If I was cynical I might think Ernest Pawn was doing this on purpose to make the club financially unviable and then the inevitable housing development could begin.
Of course that would never happen because we were guaranteed a 999 year lease. Already reduced by 900 years and we have all seen the binding paperwork of course.
Lalalalalala
PS got to dash I have a meeting with Father Christmas and the Easter Bunny and want to get a good seat before the Tooth Fairy arrives.

It has always been hard listening to Ernest and his inflated ego.
So in my opinion once the ground disappeared from club ownership,the man has no tangiable platform on which to ponce from.
Actions speak louder than words and thus far apart from taking the ground, there is a lot more of the latter and NONE of the former.
Sir Ann Wank, Ash Worn-Sphincter and Ernest Pawn are a massive negative on our beloved Iron.

Nice to see one Iron making several new signings!
Poor old Bax Mell!

At the meeting with fan groups Pawn confirmed he was challenging the ACV.
Apparently the basis for his challenge is that the Iron Trust did not ask his permission to place the ACV on the clubs (then) only asset.
Or………..wait for it……………. “He would have agreed it!”
Ian Hollowbrain of course deserves a lot of credit.
Contact him via email on :-
The ground may or may not be of any value.
Ernest has taken this as a piece of real estate that will only go up in value.
Remember in a year or so it will not have a football league club on it,a year or two later no ground on it.
Has anybody seen the terms of the 999 year lease and who signed it on behalf of us the supporters?
Just one more false promise.

Soap opera? Peter in his own head plays the JR Ewing, Mike Baldwin type of character.

Sgt Booba
Happy to be corrected.
He has only taken the Cods down once.
God bless this hero.
Give him the freedom of the Borough of Scunthorpe.
Well Sharpy I think we are having a poll!
I once attended one of Ernest Pawns ‘stand up shows’ where he was telling a joke about a new ground and that he had purchased the land for £1, an heckler asked if that was all signed and sealed. Pawn said “thats nothing to do with you, you don’t need to know about that”.
Pawn’s latest dismissive on taking the ground ‘Thats all it is really, its nothing else, it doesn’t matter’.
Well actually it does and the club debts were racked up by said person on compensation for numerous managerial teams and very poor signings.
If it doesn’t matter Ernest give it back! The £11 million debts were run up by you and you alone.

Iron-awe you are absolutely correct.
Apart from the old eyesight, hearing and needing the odd erectile pill there is nothing wrong (I hope).
It started out as a jibe about one more Cod defeat could make our season twice, but when I looked into it, it was more complicated.
Excellent a manager who is honest and decent.
Just confirms what we all know or suspect about the playing squad.
One small point why did the coaching staff trust the players to do the work when some had prevoiusly not bothered?
And why not question them as individuals to find out if they had indeed watched the video and understood what they were meant to be learning?
