    To be fair the shirt was more exciting than most of the new players arriving these last few years.

    Good. He needs to play regular mens football and it’s not going to happen here this season.

    Not sure it will be a whole 20 minutes. The loan is only a month.

    Well we certainly don’t want them coming down with us.

    Glass half full today.

    Be fine if they went down instead of us.

    Small world – Peter Fox played in goal in the same U-18 team as me for half a season until his school found out and stopped him playing for us. He was only just 15 at the time and was pretty dammed good already.

    First congratulations Stella on doubling the previous Bru record for consecutive posts on the same thread.

    A quick reminder for everyone else who is in meltdown over our energetic but rough and ready performance last night.

    Since November the club has been 99% certain to either:
    1. Cease to exist
    2. Be relegated from the National League

    One man and one man only is responsible for that situation.

    Because of Hilton’s intervention 1 is off the table.

    Dean will need to be a miracle worker to prevent 2 happening. If he did the achievement would be up there with Adkins promotions.

    9 days in for the new owner, 5 days in for the new manager and 2 days in for a bunch of players and we are not even as good as a play off team yet.

    The manager has only run pub teams apparently, the new centre forward is a donkey etc…..

    Get over yourselves. If the extra 2,000 will only stay if there is a miracle then they won’t be there long.

    Hope Jimmy Dean has a pin to pick the team with.

    Or will he just go with the first 11 names he can remember?

    Don’t know and don’t care. Suspect whatever he did was in the best interests of himself.

    It’s a fair bet a lot of Iron fans will be spending quite a bit of time on Google tomorrow Mick.

    The last 2 from Forest worked out well.

    Yates was awesome and there was a young full back who was decent – can’t remember the lads name (Gabriel?)

    The bookies have noticed something is stirring though.

    Best odds you can get to beat the form team of the league is 2 to 1.

    They were offering 7 to 1 against decent sides 3 weeks ago and 5 to 1 against fairly average teams.

    So long as the Swann family had no input there might even be some good ones among them.

    Find myself agreeing with Bucks and WG on the same day.

    Not sure that has happened before.

    As Iron fans we have had a tough time of it and some are a little cautious regarding the new owner and the new management team.

    Given the last owner and a series of unsuccessful managers this is understandable. However, given the size of the challenge the club faces to either stay in this league or at least return to it very quickly then a break from the moaning and petty bickering would help.

    We all want the same thing for the club but we all have different opinions how best to get there.

    The opinions that matter most right now belong to Hilton and Dean. Why not support them until such time as they either succeed or prove they are not worthy of that support.

    They can call it the Kitchen sponsored by Wren or the Furnace sponsored by British Steel so long as one of them coughs up an commits for a few years.

    The Kitchen would be quite Ironic given the issues with catering issues over the last 10 years.

    Might be wrong on this but vaguely recall reading somewhere there was an unexpected delay from the supplier of the actual board or screen.

    Hence the frame was installed but still awaiting delivery of the bit that fits in the hole.

    Have used Twitter for 2 years to keep abreast of the Swann out activity but now looking forward to leaving again.

    Particularly now it’s owned by a right wing extremist.

    The Iron maybe just a little detour on the way.

    Despite his success at Peterborough Sports and the likelihood we will share the same League next season we did pull aalmost 10 times their average home attendance on Saturday.

    In those terms we are a bigger club. His old team would probably beat his new team at the moment though.

    I was making a general point WG with a hint of sarcasm.

    Surprised you read it as a personal attack and feel the need to abuse me.

    I will read whatever I like and comment whatever I like thank you. I do try to avoid telling othr people what to do and what to think though.

    Didn’t take too long for the usual suspects on here to be telling the new owner how to do his new job.

    Mr Hilton does not mess about does he.

    A week ago we had never even heard of him or Jimmy Dean.

    Makes a change after many years of someone who talked a lot but delivered feck all.

    We could here the main stand Cass.

    In behalf of all in the west stand I apologise for the noise and rowdyism, it was unacceptable. We need to have a word with one or two.😉

    Needs to be a liberal sprinkling of banning orders handed out. People around me kept getting woken up.

    What about Whitehouse on Wednesday and again today by the way. Can we delay the season for a month while the squad have a quick loan at Spennymoor?

    That’s just my point Mick – he should have known.
