    After the latest statement by the Chairman it’s hardly going to help him in his Court case with Mr Swann
    As for the proposed new Ground again after the latest Statement will any Council or Development Fund really invest public funds into its proposed development.

    Listening to his interview tonight on Humberside tonight says it all !
    Just sounded like he is totally out of his depth.
    Not sure he’s even good enough for National League North !
    Did we really need a new Manager ?

    I requested that the Trust hold a meeting of all members to get views etc.
    Apparently discussed by the Committee prior to this letter but by their rules you have to give 28 days notice to call a meeting.
    Says it all really !!
    Playing politics when quick fast action needed.
    Might not even have a Club in 28 days !

    I m not suggesting organising a mass pitch invasion , that’s down to an individual to decide for himself.
    You will not stop these.
    I m talking about getting support from fans of other Clubs , may be a properly organised protest march like the one for the steelworks several years ago which could include others apart from fans such as Councillors , Business people , fans from other Clubs etc. ending in a protest outside the Main Entrance.

    As a member of the Trust I asked the Trust today when they are going to make a statement.
    Apparently the committee having a meeting tomorrow and statement will be issued on Friday
    Also I suggested they should hold a meeting of all the members so they can properly get the members views.
    If ever there is a case for a meeting of members this is it.

    I am a member of the Iron Trust and I have made my opinion known to them.
    The time for sitting on the fence has gone and the action by the fans has created more publicity in 10 minutes about what’s happening to our Club than all the talk and lack of action by the Trust and also all the other supporters organisations have up to now.
    In my opinion and I have told the Trust that at the very least they should ballot their members about if the Trust should support protests.
    I have been a member of the Trust from the start but if they do not at least ballot the members on if they think the Trust should back the protests then they will get my resignation from being a member and my £60 a year.
    What action the Trust takes should not be up to 2 or 3 people !
    It’s time for the Trust to stop playing politics.

    Well done to the young lads who went on the pitch.
    You have achieved more in that 10 minutes than months of no action and talk or rather lack of it by the Supporters Organisations.
    They have achieved in bringing what’s happening to our Club to the whole country.
    Obviously as soon as this happens Mr Turnbull who is Mr Swanns employee so does as he is told like any employee puts out a statement.
    As for any police involvement with the fans who went on the pitch in the future shame on him for even mentioning it.

    Well done to all the youth who demonstrated on the pitch.
    Should have happened months ago and they have certainly have put older fans to shame especially any who sat and shouted for them to get off the pitch.
    That 10 minutes on the pitch raised the profile of what’s happening at Scunthorpe United Football Club to national level.
    Any publicity is good publicity !
    All those who sat and jeered them all l will say is what are you doing to try and save our Club ?
    I was in the Main Stand and with others stood and applauded the youth and told a few objectors to do one !
    Sorry to say it could be to little to late but there’s always hope

    Bullshit is it.
    You need to read up on statutory redundancy payments for employees of companies.
    As far as I am aware he is an employee like the rest of the staff.

    Nothings changed at the Club Board level now Neil resigned.
    Swann owns and runs the Club through Lee Turnbull who is employed by Mr Swann.
    Lee will not resign as he would be out of work and lose any pay off he would get when the Club goes bust !

    I totally respect Neil for making this decision and I personally think he should have done it weeks ago and I have previously told him this.
    I think it makes a loud statement about the Club.
    As for not having a Fans Director we never really have had one in reality.

    I agree and think he should make a statement and then resign.
    It would make a big statement to the Fans and the Club.
    What would fans lose by him doing this ?

    We have a Fans Director who does not communicate with the Fans he represents.
    He seems to be accountable to no one !
    The Supporters Organisations who put him in this position never comment either about his actions or lack of.
    He attends Board Meetings when Mr Swann decides to have one along with Mr Turnbull an employee of the Club but the Fans never get any feedback and when he’s asked all he ever quotes is the non disclosure act.
    So what have the Fans gained from having him in position ?
    If you read the other Fans Sites a great majority have no confidence in him and openly criticise his lack of communication.

    You don’t owe the Taxman for long.

    Is the Hotel at Blackpool making money !
    You are joking. It’s years behind and still not finished.
    Think this latest revelation re Mr Swann spells the end for any takeover and our Football Club.

    Just shows how low our Club has sunk.
    A local Derby that would have generated much needed funds !
    Who ever agreed this should be ashamed.

    If the staff do not get paid I wonder how long Mr Turnbull will be there as he’s an employee ?
