Only 10 !! – when was the last time there was so little interest by the travelling army. Times have been tough before but day by day optimism drains away even faster.
Who is at fault Mr Swann ?

Times have been bad before either club or town but an away bus usually made it.
Now that set of diehards have joined the ‘who cares’ group and another success for the chairman.
If you don’t believe it Mr Swann sit down and write down all your successes – it will not not long. This all revolves around YOUR attitude to supporters and you still have it.

Recent loanees over the last 2 seasons have been less than inspiring. I genuinely cannot see what the thinking behind them was. In particular – George Thomas from Leicester, has to been one of the worst.
The one person who deserves support/backing is Mr Keith Hill and he gets nothing. The club is still a mess, the communication to keep supporters informed is a disgrace – STILL.
With the glowing comment from Neil Cox about Scrimshaw still ringing in one’s shell likes ” He is a willing runner” !! Never understand why he was signed.
The keeper – that again was less than inspiring, obviously Mr Cox wanted Rory out, 1 game and Billson was missing for over 4 months !
Summed up – FARCE but it is what we became used to.

What ever demo you do it will mean absolutely nothing to him !!
Many years ago thousands stopped attending after the chairman ordered the sale of Barry Thomas – they never returned to this day. Initially I thought demonstration would be short lived and having made their point they would return – they did not. This season after many seasons I called it a day and I it is easy to say I have no intention of returning based on recent statements by Mr Swann.
I don’t believe him, and that is 100% his fault.

Optimism is fading I fear – person responsible ? Without doubt Mr Swann.
We have the best manager for a long time and he at the moment is getting the poorest support. Whether that changes shortly we will see but again any PR seems difficult to motivate the supporters for long.
Why, because they have seen it before and heard it before !!

If THE club was asked if it would have paid the £200K p.a. salary of mr rodwell what would it have said ? The club was never asked – someone made that decision.
Was that salary part of the debt – the £11 million plus ?
It is like the ridiculous recruitment policy that has wasted millions and still is wasting money, why is the club saddled with a debt that the club had no say in !! The club would never have signed many of what arrived and departed, now would they ?

Well Mr Swann we all know you or others read these pages – previous threats of legal communication say that.
So here goes – check back on your previous Radio Humberside interviews and listen to what you promised regarding the EFL Loan and transfer dealings for the January window !!

Nice comment from Simon Elliott when some alluded to Burns being the replacement for Loft.
He isn’t ! So Keith has that one up his sleeve.

The gate was an improvement and of course as pointed out how many were on ‘ifollow’ – this a figure that is rarely mentioned.
And NO I was not there, I still don’t think ‘the light has been seen’ ‘that someone is a reformed character’ . Only 1 thing will correct that.

Thing is Swannster has said we’ll have to get by with this embargo. In my opinion he’s pretty much washed his hands of us, he may as well let somebody else in as chairman next season.
If Swann had any ambition left as chairman he would have cleared the embargo.
As a club we deserve better than what he’s offering up. I’d rather he admitted he’s done everything he can at the club, works hard to get interest “if there is any out there” and moves on.
Swann can give the ground back as well while he’s at it !
The Blackpool venture due to open this year according to an item in a national paper – Sands Venue to open fully this year. Wonder if this will release some attention or take even more !!

Never thought Cox was a good appointment.

Comes in and sets out what he expects and what he will do.
Seems on course but early days, his targeting is to win and that is good.

Totally agree WonderGoals – the level of mediocrity in recruitment these last 4 seasons lands at the feet of the man who signs the cheques. Neil Cox was a continuation of disasters, was not my choice.
Michael Flynn was mine, and if we were going to go ‘inexperienced’ getting their 1st managers job I would have asked Gary McSheffrey.

Cox wanted KDT !
1 user thanked author for this post.
My memory is not what it used to be but my recollection from the shareholder`s meeting was that Swann would clear the football league loan if he felt it was necessary.Am i mistaken?
I think you are right. Although I remember Mr Swanns statements at previous fans forums so probably open to interpretation.
It is not covid that stops me going, it was what happened with the ground because the club had wasted £11.3 million ! The club did not waste £11.3 million, the club paid the bill for a recruitment policy over several years that leaves the club in such a perilous position. And the clueless recruitment by Mr Cox still takes your breath away. Then you can add KDT and subsequent offering a 2 year deal to Jordan Hallam to compound more money wasted.
