Made some good progress with this over the weekend, will tally up in the morning and put a list of contributors below!
Sounds promising. Certainly hope some of the missing return as they were missed.
Just to say again this is to help the admin of this Fans Forum, being totally independent. All site users are really valued, hope you value Matts hard work. I certainly do.

Hi Matt.
Great news. Will do the usual way. Cheers. Bring it on NLN perhaps my sometimes optimistic and some of sheer bravado may actually come good.

Really enjoyed it again. Looking forward to doing it again if SST can fit it into his hectic schedule.
Have a good close season everyone, plenty of challenges in NLN that is for sure.

Hallam now signed for Ilkeston for next season, good luck Jordan hope it works out for you.
Yes good luck to him and also wish him the best, hope injury free as well.

There was never any point of an interview with Mr Swann – you only got his version and how do you challenge when you don’t know a thing.

Since giving away Kyle Wootton who has been recruited that was as good as him ? Will Swann wasted a fortune recruiting players nowhere is equal.
Paddy Madden – another driven out because someone had to show how powerful they were. And we never stopped paying after this.

Having had 17 games and failed to develop anything he will be at the level he knows.
I expect nothing other than going to win every game from season start to its finish. Normally say 12 games before a decision needs making. But in this case 6 maximum. Tough world !!

Playing at Spalding has benefitted him. Regular games at a tougher level helps develop. I hope those offered all stay, they will have great opportunities next season as we rebuild.

Not leaving Michael Nelson in control for the remaining 17 games. But he knows that now.
But I don’t think he realised how detested The EGO is and trust had been reduced to zero. I realise Mr Hilton needs time but he made mistakes – as I said Nelson, he was 1 and then the debacle over the Academy set up and then the U-turn. It was all avoidable if he had spoken to people first and come up with a plan. I mean some coaches found out they were sacked as they drove to Bradford on a sunday morning !
Let’s see what unfurls during the close season and the managerial attitude when the season starts. Because if targeting is in the thought processes from game 1 it will be difficult.

He had 17 matches with nothing to lose ! He could have entertained, maintained the stability that Mr Nelson seemed to be creating.
But the ‘nothing to lose’ became completion of a created demise. His post matches are as bad as Mr Cox’s and that takes some doing !!!

Academy saved now, viable business plan in place plus support from the Chairman, I’m guessing the doom mongers will be grumbling about something though. Well done to the new owner for listening and considering a workable plan, not like the previous guy whosw word was law whatever others thought.
But did he change his mind once he realised to shut it down immediately would not save a penny. That actually was going to cost him.
Strikes me that no discussions had been held with the Academy before the original statement ! Which seems very strange.

There is no comparison Nelson to Dean.
Nelson had a mess to sort out. He did that while bringing in stability, a balanced set up and improved confidence despite losing players on what seemed a weekly basis. Dean had all that sorted for him – so he has performed poorly.
Messrs Hilton and/or Dean have loaned or got rid of players and replaced with some that would rank highly in the ‘Will Swann Book of inadequates’ – what an achievement !!!
