    we know he is Royalty, but it has nothing to do with the running of his country, you are picking on City but all big clubs are similar with foreign owners, nearly all Champions League clubs of any country have now got massive backing, one of the biggest problems in Sport is the ridiculous wages, and regarding the Man United owners they bought the club with loans and seeing how many years they have owned the club they look like they will never own it debt free, they got another massive loan this last summer, City I believe are debt free and with getting money from Oil is a business not a fraud, I am sure most Man U fans would have had the City owners running their club instead of the Glazers.

    Ferrite the City owners are not their countries government, lots of other clubs have rich owners, you are talking like a Man U or a Liverpool fan who moans that their owners don’t dip their hands in their pockets enough, like United are supposed to be the richest club, yet they have the highest debt because of their owners and like a couple of other big clubs had to take a big loan out in the summer to either compete in the transfer market or to pay debts or players.

    in my opinion if the owners have the money to spend let them spend it, no need for dubious models Ferrite, City have wealthy owners, but it is clubs debts that are the issues, and often keep clubs in the FFP which is a farce, also some clubs get loans to get around it, to me it should be the owners responsibility the debts, also it would be interesting at all clubs if transfers had to be paid in full instead of instalments.

    I’ve voted for him, it’s about time the lad had a bit of luck, there is certainly a footballer in him, just needs consistency.

    Dale had two small strikers and they were the big difference that day.

    Bobby Mimms was the goalkeeper coach for who?,can’t remember him being at Scunthorpe.
    I went to school with his half sister and played football with his 2 half brothers, and they look like him as well, parents split up and his dad moved to York.

    the new Murray Wallace, come here on loan and then permanent, and build a team around him and Manny, at least Harrison can play right back.

    Speaking of big Guy.

    Podcast with Ipoua was most enjoyable. Well done Bru!

    one of the most enjoyable, Guy couldn’t speak English when he went Bristol Rovers now he speaks posher than possibly most of us.

    Safety, first, if we make the playoffs all well and good, but we need to keep the consistency up, We seem to have found the best eleven now with proper changes in rotation instead of playing players out of position, Karacan and Taft are great signings, do we put them down to young Swann.

    Yet on Tuesday they did live commentary from their studio watching it TV for Hull at Accrington, why couldn’t they do that at ours and Grimsby away commentaries.

    Our track record against teams in a bad run isn’t good, surely it will end one day, we deserved to beat them at home so let’s hope Neil doesn’t go back to non working systems, though we didn’t concede against Vale we certainly didn’t have a shot at goal when we went into defence mode, and against Barrow we waited until we went behind.

    I don’t think he would play because of Covid fears a few weeks ago.

    was not impressed with the second half tactics at all, luckily we defended well but if they scored one I don’t think we would have hung on.

    Some good performances today which makes a change for a local derby.
    Loft, Eisa and Gillihead outstanding, Karacan, Beestin and Orinaise not far behind and the rest played well also, this makes a change and I hope we don’t let it go to waste on Tuesday, so go and enjoy yourselves for our first Saturday win for 7 weeks.

    I will watch because I am a season ticket holder, but am not paying anymore tenners until we start to improve and play entertaining football.
