Preston were backed by a very wealthy gentleman and he covered the bills.
Mr Hayes was offered a 3 yr deal at £8K a week – he would have been stupid to turn it down.

As many say be civil, watch the language it isn’t needed and above all before posting your comments check what you have put ! If you cannot prove it do not put it – it could be expensive.

Surely Swann won’t want to be known as the past Chairman who destroyed SUFC and broke the hearts of our very loyal supporters.
Swann spent money that he and the club didn’t have and to offset the losses kindly signed over all our assets to his company. I don’t think he gives a toss how he comes across.
I’m no Swann supporter, but at least get your facts right
Swann transferred assets over to his company in return for writing off £11,000,000.
I accept that he, and his managers, were absolutely crap with the use of the money over a long period, but he could have let us keep the assets and the £11M debt. We would have been much worse off than we are now.
On a Radio Humberside interview the EGO said we had gambled but failed.
That is factually incorrect – HE had gambled, we had no say in it. In fact no one had. So who sanctioned the spending season after season that then totaled into the debt of £11 Million – The Chairman had. Yet the club who had no so say in it has to repay its money to the person who spent it !!

After the EGO you think as far as stupidity goes we have seen it all !
We hadn’t. Club quite happy to take shirt sponsorship from IRON BRU and then bans him !
Scunthorpe United assumes mantle of COMEDY CLUB FC.

Misterton Mick says at the moment “nothing that is happening makes sense”.
Going back to the early days when Mr Hilton came in, who thought it made sense to replace Michael Nelson with a new manager from a lower level of football and said he hadn’t talked to prior to offering him the job ? And it still doesn’t make sense.

Why the wording of this item ?
It is not necessary. Don’t abuse someone who actually did something for the club in its darkest hour.

Good choice by Gainsborough. Young squad so will bring stability and structure which I am told is missing. Got several former Scunthorpe United players to work with several who he already knows.

Peter Swann should donate the ground to the Iron Trust.
The least he should do.
