    If Swann goes and the club goes under – what difference will that be to Swann staying?
    Based on that thinking – I prefer to see him depart.

    Muses. I wonder if Fenty might be available …

    if the club went under Les at least we would enjoy our weekends more

    Neil said we are missing Kenyon to organise midfield and defence, so….

    Hey, look at the positives. We drew the second half.

    some good starting to try when you are 5 down

    Harrogate 5 shots on target, Scunthorpe 0 shots on target = 5-0

    WE WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR A HONEST OPINION FROM UPTHEIRON99, SO OBVIOUSLY OUR SUPPORTERS AT HARROGATE HAVEN’T GIVEN THE PLAYERS A LIFT

    UPI99 what will your comments be about the Chairman if he becomes the first one to get us relegated out of the league, and at the moment it is looking very likely because the manager won’t try anything different to get us out of this mess, we will have done our homework on Harrogate but they don’t need to do any on us because we don’t do anything anything any different, all we do is sit back and rely on breakaways and then we rarely get a shot on target, so unless we have been practicing shooting instead of how to nullify certain opposition players we will get the same result.

    This last three and a bit seasons have been a disaster, if Peter Swann wants to go it might be better if he went because I know us fans are fed up with watching this dull football every week and the only entertainment is from the opposition, it’s not as though we are getting points by playing it.

    Just over three years ago we had been in the playoffs twice with a near miss on the last day, since then we have had poor squads and now we are cannon fodder in league 2 with very little fight.

    We either need a manager to make us into the exciting attacking side we were promised, or the Chairman needs to renew his season ticket, come to games to see how bad we are, technically the players we have should be OK but on match day they don’t deliver.

    Every performance is the same, we huff and puff first half and we conceded early today and usually it’s just before half time, but after the halftime team talk we just fall to pieces, and again hardly a shot on target, 1 today.

    I thought after last season more effort would have been put in this season to get a better team but again with extra injuries and style of play and lightweight players the lack of attacking football is killing the club.

    it’s about time we got loan players who are better than the kids who could have played.

    A couple of players who can lift the team, make things happen and most importantly, stay fit would make all the difference

    I’m reminded of something Laws said on the Bru podcast interview, along the lines of the fact that he’d been spreading his budget fairly evenly for years but, at the start of the 04/05 season, he realised that spending a few more quid on a good keeper could make far more difference than spending that money elsewhere. Result? In came Musselwhite and along with a couple of other shrewd (and experienced) signings, the defence was transformed from the one that nearly cost us our League status the previous season.

    plus Baraclough.

    They might not fold but maybe drop down a league or two, and like Bury have to ground share with another non league team like Gainsborough Trinity

    Well when you are one goal behind and you are crossing the ball to Scrimshaw and Hallam at height I don’t think we are going to score many goals that way, their goal was a good bit of play but my minor gripe was they took the throw in 3 or 4 yards nearer our goal than from where the ball went out, another below average home performance, even good teams have off days, we have off days every home game because Port Vale were that comfortable only the header cleared off the line really troubled them, wasn’t impressed with the referee either he was giving them the free kicks for the slightest touch but we were relying on the lino for ours.

    Neil Cox “We knew they would change at half time; we had done our homework and we’ve seen that they push everybody forward. We had to be ready for it and I thought we were, but we showed a little bit of inexperience when we should have just seen it out. It feels like a loss, but we would have taken a draw after last week’s result. However, we are disappointed.”

    We never learn, just keep going and put them on the back foot, we can’t sit back for 45 minutes without conceding, it was a great effort but we aren’t in winning form or confidence, Neil you got the first half right but you created pressure in the second half, if they want to get back in the game don’t give them encouragement.

    From what I hear we dominated the first half and could have been out of site, but second half we just sat back with 10 players in the area absorbing pressure then Beestin made a silly area when he could have cleared the ball and like usual conceded and in typical Iron style gave another away with the last kick.
    I would like to know what is ever said at halftime because it rarely works.

    Why do we sit back and throw points away, for gods sake it doesn’t work, it doesn’t look like the substitutions worked either.

    With Manny back on Saturday and a much more solid back “five” a win will stop a lot of this critism a loss is likely to intensify it. Still not sure how we will score a goal though unless we are fortunate enough to get a penalty.

    just remember, penalties for, sending offs against us and late winners don’t happen on a regular occasion, so 2 penalties is our quota for this season and a injury time equalizer will probably be has near to a winner for this season, and a player getting a red card against us is now even rarer than the other two, the last time was at the end of the game and we had one sent off as well.

    “Yes the team isn’t the best at present but I wonder how they’d react to positive crowd getting behind them.”

    Well here’s your answer to that question quoting Mark Lillis from the OWS:-
    “The fans have been unbelievable this season.”
    “Like I said after the game, it was unacceptable”

    Anything else you need help with?

    our team isn’t the best at present, but I wonder what would happen if they let the shackles off and let them go out and attack teams for 90 minutes and TRY TO SCORE SOME GOALS instead of trying to contain the opponents hoping for a lucky break and do the impossible and try to keep a clean sheet.
