When down to 10; I’d go:
In possession 2-4-3
Out possession 4-4-1When going down to 1o just where is Jim Goodwin ?
Best organiser we have had over the years. Need someone to step into that role.

Took a former U16 Scunthorpe United Academy player to set them on their way.
This was not a loan idea. Just that he had scored a good goal the other weekend so thought discussion point.
Re – another mid person, can understand comments. Does sound from the Fans Q&A at the AA we may be able to ask Sunderland if we have an issue.
Chorley doing well. Kings Lynn up there but seemingly a lot of investment so need to be.
Chester certainly had a poor start.
It is a problem for us for many seasons – players not moving into space fast enough.
Perhaps this season we may see its return on a regular basis because we have the players to deal with the crosses into the box.
If Mr Butler is happy with it then it will not change so all you terrace coaches get behind Maison and help him, our fans have always helped when a player needs it.

And we know what usually follows with us if this happens !
Give it to him at Morecambe.

Yeah I thought the forum was a refreshing change from the tripe Swann and Hilton served up in their time with the club, as for Matt and peoples eyes going up into their head when his name was mentioned last night. Well Matt was one of the main people involved in getting the fans fundraiser started when the club didn’t have a pot to piss in and players and staff were going unpaid, just a thought.
The money raised by IRON BRU’s appeal that went worldwide probably saved the club.
Even Michelle has to admit it gave her a breathing space. Staff and players could have walked – they had not been paid and if we had failed to play a fixture then that could have been the end.
And people need to remember that !

Crap! Too late for me.
Really need a heads up on the midweek predictions.
I am retired so I will give a heads up the day before any if that is acceptable.
That would be a great help, thanks. Obviously it’s better and more interesting if we’re all competing instead of not realising.
Not a problem. Yes best if we all fail at the same time !!!
PS: You have missed one for saturday Deeryeme that is the BRAINTREE v YEOVIL game.I do look to see how our thought processes and bravery compare.

Not just the competitive games this season either is it though, he was making these glaring mistakes in almost every game in pre-season too. His distribution is piss poor as well, gifted Sunderland’s first in mid week and a number of dead balls flying straight into touch in both league games so far. How long do we roll out the “he’s young, give the lad a chance” excuse? He’s a professional footballer and that sort of mistake made today is the sort you make as a youth and quickly learn from it. Thankfully we were 3-0 up after a relatively impressive performance, but we won’t be afforded that luxury all season and he’s going to cost us.
In the papers after saturday game it read ” After flapping at corner a calamitous goal was conceded ” – you remember the goal ? Well the keeper they referred to was ALTAY BAYINDIR of Manchester United. He cost them £4.3 million. His Manager Mr Amorim said he was not looking for another keeper.
Just to give a balance.

3 – 1 Home win.
Whitehall
Ewing
HoweGATE: 4680
Fingers crossed so the club can move on.
Great news and it is above the pre-covid figures.
To maintain 2 things are a must 1/ Providing entertaining attacking football….. and …2/ Never treat the fans with contempt like some others did.

Greatest Improvement needed over the season – Quality of the passing and direction. Chuckle bros style will not be good enough.
Neither will a stubborn attitude from AB.The team needs stability establishing asap, and a formation that helps the players settle quickly. Experimentation will lead to more fails than successes I fear.
My final request – No Targeting ! All games are there to be won, but go into them with indecision and problems occur.
Best to all and special mentions to the travelling fans – please be careful on your travels and get home safely.
Fortune favours the brave. So let us see how brave we want to be.

Blimey, only just remembered to make the first lot of predictions before Saturday. A long season ahead…
It has arrived quickly. Certainly looking forward to the season long tussle with you all.
As usual my blind optimism will cost me dear although I have fingers crossed that 352 does not rear its ugly head !!!
Good luck all.
Those trialists we list may be there at the request of their agents. Probably been training with us and keeping a good level of fitness plus drills in formations, set-ups etc
Good luck to them.
Just to say everyone that with the dire situation at Morecambe the Nat Lge have postponed their 1st 3 fixtures.
So as a result the Boston fixture has been postponed. Iron Bru has acted very quickly and put another fixture on the page.
It is WOKING v CARLISLE but the Boston is still visible.So don’t miss out and update you predictions so you have 5 active games.
Good Luck to all and thank you Iron Bru for dealing with it.
For the Bottesford Towns it is a lot of games for part timers.
Good luck to all of them.

Get well soon Misterton.

A very good signing in Oli Rose. Just need to adopt a setup that builds stability.
Make opponents have to adapt to us on every occasion. Whether it be 433 or 442 is ok because for us it works more than 352 or 3142 etc, etc.
Like the launch video but will be honest not the most imaginative of designs for either strip.
Can imagine there will be a sell on clause and that the club also has an option to extend clause.
Good business for both if that is the case.
Ha ha, only joshing. I’ll do better if I remember to make my predictions on time!
I realised that DM66 – was just having a little fun.
I do it because what Matt and the moderators do is phenomenal and I like to show my appreciation.
It takes a lot of time but they do it to keep OUR Forum independent.2 users thanked author for this post.
Are you sure that you are being reasonable about that, San Fran?
I live in hope.
Come on, join in. It’s a new division so initially no form/results to go on. Usually means that my stabs in the dark leave me closer to the top of the league than later on when the experts leave me behind.

Come on people join in and help YOUR forum.
Because you will help, every weekend you can take a few minutes away from shouting at the politicians and display your superior football knowledge to predicting all the correct results and teach us all a thing or two.
It is fun, frustrating at times when in a minute you can go from glory to failure.
Matt should pay you commission for your promotion efforts Sanfran
Sorry Deeryme66 I could not accept nor would I counsel for such an emolument.
It would render my Amateur status as obsolete, it would make me a professional – not a chance of that happening.
All the best for the Prediction challenges ahead and I am sure you will do very well.

14 points and no stupid formations.
Also expect players to be able to pass the ball to each other consistently.
