Why was the RH commentary breaking up? – It must have happened more than 60 times in today’s match. Breaks of roughly 4 seconds one after another.

Don’t you wish that our keeper did not prat about with the ball?

Surely, every director must have a better overview than any poster on here can possibly have.
If the position were beyond repair and you were a director – would you not ALL have already jumped ship if something were radically wrong?
Are we to believe that they are all too stoopid not to have given a thorough examination to any and all of DH’s plans? Surely too, they must inevitably have added their own two penn’orth to the rescue project.
With Mr Waters as the only one to have departed – apparently at DH’s behest – I am encouraged.On a different tack, one thought had crossed my mind was that DH certainly seemed to have the money to have bought the ground last January. Professional people with reputations to protect confirmed the fact.
After claiming to have spent a seven figure sum in the last nine months – which sounds realistic – and with new debts seemingly appearing with great regularity, it has crossed my mind, though, that he might just be a tad stretched at the moment.Overall, the statement is encouraging.
Me clasping at straws again? – Hopefully, something a bit more substantial.1 user thanked author for this post.
Sorry, DM – “confident” is certainly not what I am.
You might, however, class me as a “rather desperate straw-clutcher.”1 user thanked author for this post.
Poor choice or NO choice?
Poor sounds very attractive to me at this point.1 user thanked author for this post.
My personal take on this is that DH seemingly gets zero credit for anything and everything from certain parties.
Has he really done nothing at all worthy of congratulation? (PS must be cackling and laughing his socks off!)
Are some prepared to sacrifice the club rather than admit, “Okay, there are indeed some very serious questions but …?”
Personally, I thought that our club finishing last season and continuing to exist along with a decent team must be worth some sort of credit. Maybe it’s pie-in-the-sky – but let’s not contribute to the downfall of the club.
Better some hope than none.
I am starting to wonder just how representative Bru is – or isn’t.
If huge numbers vote with their feet then I guess that will tell us a story.
I could be very wrong but I believe that most of those supporting the club will do so while there is still a sliver of hope that this may yet work out okay – or even okayish.The sole issue here is the survival of our beloved Iron.
If the chairman has a chance to achieve this – assuming he still wants to make the effort – I do not see how we can fail to support him.
“But Les, what if it’s only a 20% chance?” – I’d snap his hands off!For me to feel differently, I’d need to know that Elliott/Sharpe (or others ???) have the wherewithal to save the club.
Phoenix club? – If even possible – that could take a great deal more years than I and many other folks on this board have left to us.It’s a clear choice.
We either pontificate and try to make DH so uncomfortable that he walks away – with the concomitant 95% (???) probability that the club folds
OR
We make the best of a bad job; learn to control our ‘oh-so justifiable moral outrage’ and perhaps give the man space to breathe. After all that has been stated in anger – we now need calmness. Oodles of it!
Let us, at least, make it possible for him to stay.
The one thing that may well separate him from the previous owners appears to be that he seemingly cares whether our club survives or not.
When our very survival hangs in the balance – I rather wish that some on here would learn to look at the big picture FIRST!Thoughtlessness on my part. FA qualifiers are certainly different.

Same pro ref I mentioned earlier told me this morning that although he believes the interpretations of NLN rules may well lead to a replayed match, it is by no means guaranteed.
Apparently, the ref’s report on the game is critical. Representations from other parties may be considered irrelevant by the ‘NLN powers that be’.Personally, I cannot see how an incomplete match can be declared complete post abandonment.
The thought crosses my mind that this could turn into a legal case. A tort, maybe?1 user thanked author for this post.
When we conceded the 2nd – had nobody noticed that Ogle had been subbed?
I sincerely doubt that we’d have conceded that one with him on the pond – sorry, I meant pitch.
No blame to JD – he was just going for a win.1 user thanked author for this post.
