    For someone who was against lockdown he certainly needs to get out more!

    Get back out there and support everyone in work,spend your money go to the pub,cafes,holidays,help everyone its really not bad out there .

    If you’re comfortable with that then fine. However, many aren’t.

    Talking to the landlady in my local on Sunday as I was the only one in for twenty minutes.

    Agreed that you can only do so much and if customers are still not comfortable with the arrangements they won’t “get back out there”. You can’t force people back no matter how much YOU want them to, and with government guidelines still ambiguous at best and downright confusing at worst normally is still light years away.

    No one wants Russ sacked. Just for him to return to being a coach.

    When he got us over the line in 2014 he had leaders in the squad. Syers, Bishop, McSheffrey, Hayes, Burton, Mirfin. And forwards like Madden and Winnall who new where the goal was.

    Not got that luxury this time round.

    Needs help in some form.

    Indeed. If this was the first time Wilcox had been promoted to caretaker/permanent manager then fair enough, but we know on past record what we’re getting. The performance against the Cods show that nothing has changed for the better.

    If Swann intends to run with a reduced young squad he needs the best possible coaching and management team to get the best out of them.

    We know the scenario. Team struggles, players inexplicably left out, fans moan, Swann sacks! Repeat.

    With a host of coaches and players looking for new clubs it’s a buyers market. Let’s hope Swann and the recruitment team have being doing their homework during lockdown.

    Let’s also remember that other clubs are is the same situation as ourselves. We only need to be the best of the worst!

    You’ve hit the nail on the head Ferrite. The higher up the division we are the bigger the gates.

    Fans come to watch a winning team.

    However, like many things at present, attendance figures are an unknown factor!

    Agree with ‘tash.

    Desperately need an experienced CM. Desperately need an experienced GK. could do with a Beast/Torps/Gayle type CF (this is L2 after all).

    Would also want to see another CB to cover for injuries, but the same is true about the FBs!

    Recruitment will have to be phenomenally good, but it will be a buyer’s market.

    So that’s “officially licensed partner” then. Not “money grabbing website”.

    Got you order in III?

    Claret shorts and socks home.

    White shorts and socks third.

    If enough of us write to the club they might swap them around.

    Or have an IB poll?

    Cracking set of strips for a change. Heaven knows when we’ll see them used though!

    Had to look hard to spot the badge on the shirt tail so I don’t think it’s too obtrusive.

    Many clubs have used similar weaves on the FRONT, even Brazil did it. So count your blessings on that one!

    “I’d happiy buy one or two from the club, but not from some money grabbing website”.

    One way of looking at it. Or, like Ferrite says, if the club can’t see the potential in the product why shouldn’t some small business throw their hat into the ring?

    If you snooze, you lose! How many others have produced SUFC related goods that the club has missed out on?

    After recent seasons SUFC blindfolds would be more appropriate!

    Both managers did what they were appointed to do, namely get the clubs out of the relegation places. So why get shot before the season ends?

    Just don’t see the logic in it. I can’t imagine Crowley was on the same money as Wagner, or Pearson on as much as Gracia/Flores so I doubt if it is cost-cutting.

    Over zealous owners?
