I doubt if another 44 0-0 draws will be enough to keep us up.

[Northumbiron]

Why haven’t you entered the prediction league BS? You don’t even have to leave the house to play.

You still use Iron Bru, so how about giving Matt £15 to help fund the site?

[Northumbiron]

Ivan Toney…

…deemed good enough to start for a Premier League side.

This despite the club not busting a gut to sign him when we had the opportunity.

[Northumbiron]

Still not working on this weekend’s predictions.

[Northumbiron]

He’s just a boy who’s intentions are good….!

[Northumbiron]

You left “be” out of the thread title!

[Northumbiron]

Gareth Bale on loan?

[Northumbiron]

Andy Carroll?

Hot Vimto and a Mars Bar for me!

I started going during those heady Div 2 days and I remember our fall through the leagues to Div 4 was as disappointing as our recent demise.

What stopped us going out of the FL was the voting system which saved our bacon. That and the 1969-72 squad – you all know their names. Who were Iron heroes to a man.

Oh for a team with their attitude now. Perhaps even a Ron Ashman!

Neil’s fault? – I doubt it. Showing faith in Pugh is no sacking offence.

But putting an U23s CM at RB for the THIRD time (not all under Cox admittedly) has to raise questions.

Hurst wasn’t, and we know what happened to him. Swann doesn’t want an independent thinker.

Great time to sack a manager, just after he’s brought in his choice of players (allegedly).

What a bloody mess!

He also said we were in good nick. Not in debt and with an exciting squad heading into the new season.

Anything bad was the fault of Covid, and that’s over now isn’t it?

So come along lads, “Always look on the bright side of ……”

It feels like 11 years 8 months!

Utterly depressing.

Anyone else not able to get the joker button to work on tonight’s fixtures?

[Northumbiron]

And that’s my point. The way Swann spoke on Friday was all about getting customers in to spend money.

Customers not fans?

[Northumbiron]

Who broke that bloody mirror?

[Northumbiron]

This is the bloke who on Friday night’s podcast was asking the supporters to come along and buy food and drink and spend money in the club shop.

Yet UTI99 reckons none of that matters and we should just turn up, watch and sod off home without buy a foot-long and trying to hold it it after sinking a couple of pints somewhere other than the Iron Bar.

A bit out of sync with your boss aren’t you?

The flags look like the ones flying over The Alamo!

Quite appropriate really.

[Northumbiron]

We’ve two new coaches, don’t they have any input?

So yet again someone who was played out of position gets criticised – Tom Pugh is not a FB !
Doesn’t that sound familiar Hornshaw got sacrificed and no thanks for doing the job !!

And before that it was Levi Sutton.

Unfortunate that Millen got injured pre-season, and that Billson got injured after 45 minutes and O’Neill after 30.

But we’re not talking injuries after one game surely?

Perhaps an over abundance of shit in the board room could be the answer.

There’s been plenty of shit on the pitch for the past three seasons but the turf is still looking patchy!

What has any of that got to do with home attendances UTI99?

According to the Iron Bru podcast on Friday night we have assembled an exciting squad. Clearly the supporters aren’t buying into that.

6,000 at Mansfield and Carlisle, 5,000 at Hartlepool. Obviously they hold more attraction than we do!

[Northumbiron]

I blame Covid!
