Just a thought but is this deflection from a manager that has seen his left back roasted for 70 minutes and then brings the clubs best left back off the bench into right midfield to replace the days best performing midfield player.
Who refused to play who might have got a game anyway? Perry? The German? Nuttall? Why was he on the bench then?
Bollocks Keith. I know you were dealt a bad hand but I think it’s time to fold.

I remember an away game at Walsall when we had 3 shots on target and Walsall had about 10.
We won 4-1. I think Tom Hopper scored a couple that day.
Doesn’t matter how many lottery tickets you buy. Only winning tickets are worth anything.

Not much point playing Hackney, Matheson, Sinclair, Burns or Pyke from here on in.
Or Delaney unless Keith is planning to give him a deal for next season.
If Watson is going probably time to have a look at Collins.
Let’s see what Wilson and Poulter can do up front. Can’t be any less of a goal threat than anything else we have seen this season.

Thanks for that update Mick. I think we all need to be realistic and allow Lee Turnbull to draw at least a dotted line under how we got here. We will only get a solid line when the club has different ownership but he cannot do anything about that.
Given the current owners track record of getting deals done holding our breath on that is probably not a good idea.
It’s a long and difficult road back to credibility for this football club and team. Hopefully Lee has got a map which is something that has sadly been missing for the last four years.
I was so embarrassed by our first half capitulation on Friday I decided not to attend any more matches until new owners were in place. On reflection I refuse to give up on my club becauseof the stupidity of one man who doesn’t give a shit and will be there against Stevenage and Hartlepool. Might even go to Bradford. I will embrace the inevitable defeats, cheer the young lads on and see it as the start of a long and painful climb.
This is rock bottom (he says hopefully),

Would need someone with a lot of time on their hands to put that together.

At least he didn’t make promises he won’t keep.
We’ve had 9 years of that and look where it got us.

Disagree slightly NI. I think it’s been in the making since March 2018 when mein fuhrer decided he knew about football.
Sacked Alexander, told Bish and Murphy they weren’t worth a new contract and invented the recruitment committee. Picked managers on their ability to say yes sir.
Direcion of travel has been rapidly downhill ever since.

It’s been tough for the youngsters coming into a difficult situation and a very poor side.
Moore-Billam, Gallimore, Lewis and Cribb have have shown enough that they can make it in professional football so we should keep them. Shrimpton, Wilson, Young and Collins have not yet had the opportunity to show that they are good enough but wouldn’t write them off.
Jessop has had a few opportunities but never looked like taking them. Poulter scores goals at youth level but neither Cox or Hill seem to think that’s important so not had a first team chance.
I would keep Rowe and O’Malley who are still youngsters but in this squad are relatively experienced.
Leaves us the “experienced” players.
Watson and the club need one of these new no blame divorces. It just hasn’t worked for either. Millen had had a difficult time with injuries but not good enough to keep. Taft thanks but no thanks. Grant – good player but the legs may have gone. Feeney I would probably keep. Always been a good footballer and will do things in a decent team. Beestin again would probably keep. Was one of our better players last season and long Covid has obviously held him back this year
Nuttall has had his chances and not taken them. If your manager picks Pyke ahead of you then you are probably not good enough.
Bunn, Jarvis, Hallam and KDT have not managed to convince Hill or Cox so off you trot.
In summary then we are a dozen decent players short of achieving a National League mid table finish.
Good thing our new head honcho made his reputation finding good footballers on the cheap.
Busy few weeks Lee.

Will you all just feck off with your political bollocks. Depressing enough that it’s a match day tomorrow.

I am no property developer but I suspect there are not many towns in England with a lower price for building land than Scunthorpe.

Would be nice to be on the verge after four years in the gutter.
Maybe one day we’ll make it as far as the road to recovery.
