I predict that our club will be saved from liquidation at the very last minute, by a consortium of people who started their working life at SUFC. We will probably get demoted too. But we will bounce back from this one.

The Manager is 100% responsible for player conduct and behaviour.
If any player breaks the rules on more than 1 occasion they should be immediately suspended and removed from the squad list. Supporters should be aware of why players are no longer available for selection and termination of contract hearings started.
No wonder there was no chance of survival because they were allowed to get away with it. I would rather have seen non league free agents given an opportunity.
Highlights the shocking mismanagement at the club throughout the season.
I believe our manager was worried that he wouldn’t even be able to field a team, had he fired or even suspended the wage thieves. If that is the case then I expect to see a big old clear out in the near future, I didn’t see enough go in this years ‘retained list.’
Kieth should be able to do his job without constraints, not just from the poss tots in the boardroom, but those here posing as footballers who just can’t be bothered.
Get shot of em Kieth!!

You know what? I’m fecking sick of managers loosing their jobs because of the turds they were expected to polish. Having to play half decent strikers down the wing, because we have no wingers. Stuff like that is more the fault of those who hold the purse strings, but no one is sacking them.
Give Kieth a chance, because there may well not be anyone better available.

I’m not up for changing our team badge, much less our colours. We do need to work on our image. For too long we have been a stop off point for journey men who need fitness then move on. Also our “chairman” let a full team of professionals come to the end of their contracts and move on for nothing. Had they retained even a handful of them we would not be in this mess.
Once we are free of Mr Wilko things will improve, of this I am sure.

Hill put it in as a wind-up answer to a not very bright question.
He then reduced it to 6 with the same laugh in his voice.That’s the way I heard it on Hullberside as well.

Given the rather prickly nature of the current regime you have to be careful what you say……
But, the loan issue is just one of a catalogue of issues that revolve around what has been said, as opposed to what has actually been subsequently done.
So I won’t call Swann a liar, because that would be grossly unfair, impugn his magnificent reputation as a shrewd businessman of high repute and also his general standing as a fabulous all round guy.
What I would say however is that what’s historically been said as opposed to what’s actually been done seems to have nothing more than a passing (and very casual) acquaintance with the truth.
Swann and ‘the truth’ in the same sentence huh? However, I do like a bit of irony.
But I will make a point, as I have absolutely sweet fuck all, and it would be a waste of time suing me. Swann and his gaggle have rinsed our football club and walked it dry. We were not worth much to begin with.
Now we are worth less than nothing. No ground of our own, crap team playing crap football, with a bunch of cowardly stewards who prefer to kick our youngsters out, but rarely if ever deal with away fans.
UTI – Down with the Swanns….
I’m worried that we will continue to drop down into NLN, as there is almost certainly not going to be any money to spend on, at least half decent new players.
I did trust Swann for the first few years. But the recent asset stripping, plus the neglect of our team and our ground, (we haven’t even got a working scoreboard damnit), is hardly what I would call inspiring.
I really do fear for for the future, and hope that it doesn’t unravel in the next two or three seasons.

Too many to count. I would single out the FA Cup fourth round second replay at the Old Show Ground. Lots of faces in the crowd I hadn’t seen for ages, and the boys on the pitch didn’t let us down either.
Much much later, at Priestfield, we were beating Brighton. Then we had a conga going on singing ‘we are top of the league, we are top of the league.’ Brighton fans were leaving in their droves and we were singing ‘bye bye, bye bye,’ lol. Happy days…

What happens next? The biggest fight this club has ever had. It will be difficult, but not impossible. A new chairman, a wedge to spend on the transfer market, and Kieth Hill given license to rebuild our team.
We are not the type of fans that will stop supporting our club just because of the shit we are in.
Get digging those trenches….

Much like the players, they cannot be any worse than what we have already got.

Other than Swanny giving Alexander 113 games Bobbins 71 games a good chance to Cox’s 69 your bang on right LK.😂 Lol.
Oh Touché!
Their matches were played at a higher level. Cox was a bloody disaster that should have been given the boot a lot sooner.

Feck the revolving door to the managers office, that is part of the reason we are heading for non league obscurity.
Hill came here with a good record for getting poor teams out of the sh*t. He has promised to stay on, even when we do get relegated. If he does stay remains to be seen. But if he does, then let us see how many of his own signings opt to stay, and if he can get any more to sign.
Nobody seems to get a good chance to show us what they can do here (except Cox). Next season could be a nightmare whatever we do. So let us start by giving this manager a chance to take us back up.

I walked through a group of these youths with hoodies up and wearing masks after the game near Costa Coffee, they were being told to shove off by the police. Thing is most of them only appear to be spotty little herberts barely wet behind the ears, not saying they can’t cause aggro when in a gang but how much is gang bravado and actual intent? If they were confronted in just ones and twos I’m guessing most would scarper back home to Mum.
Be careful man, don’t fall foul of the Scunthorpe Massive! 😅
