    Are the current directors injecting (giving) cash to the club or loaning it.
    If it’s loans, what’s the rate?

    The licence; issued yet?
    If I was on the committee I’d be against it.
    You don’t want drugged up goons wandering around the adjacent shopping outlets when there are young families and elderly citizens going about their everyday business.

    It should be fan owned through the trust.
    However, there is no activity on this front.
    A tenner for life is a joke.

    We’ll see whether Michelle and Co are on the side of steelworkers when it comes to season ticket prices, said on Calendar that we both go hand in glove with each other time will tell.
    The tickets for a tenner just trying a bit of PR not thought through as normal,highest paid workers in town but no one’s lost their job yet and won’t for at least twelve weeks. Bless em.

    It’s looking dire!

    Is the hospital aware and on ‘standby’ to receive comatosed / very ill patients due to overdosing or a reaction?

    Are there enough toilets, catering facilities for 10,000 each day? A drug fuelled audience are a very different kettle of fish to your Saturday afternoon ‘here we go, here we go’ crowd.
    Officer K9 is going to have a very busy afternoon.
    Are there any plans to have a:

    First-aid tents – Available to administer any immediate care that may result from overdosing, the taking of impure or dangerously strong substances, bad or negative reaction to drugs (each person will react differently) etc.

    Back-of-house testing – this is where private companies at festivals test drugs that have been confiscated or those that have been disposed of. Any negative findings (e.g. severe impurities, contamination, misidentification) will then be reported throughout the festival for the benefit of others.

    Front-of-house testing – these are open testing areas where individuals can have their drugs tested by professionals to ensure that they are relatively (though rarely, if ever, completely) pure, have been sold as advertised, or are dangerously or fatally strong.

    Minefield… innit!

    If we go up as champs or through the play offs – we ain’t going to have the money to attract a better standard of player that we’ll need.
    Up against it in NL next season.
    Agree with AWG – put it up for sale once the job is done.

    Marketing ploy. Announce the tickets, then block all the cheap seats out – as if there’s been a rush on them.
    People then are under the impression that there’s a demand for it and sheeple being sheeple, they desire it and purchase tickets from the next tier before they are ‘sold out’ too.

    Too short a time space between the announcement (yesterday) and the first meeting (today).
    Yeah, it says you can arrange an individual appointment but better to see & hear the full presentation.

    Forecasting a loss next year too due to ‘legacy matters’ and 2 to 3 years to become ‘self-sufficient’

    Rocky road ahead still then?

    ‘Non stop attacks on Bru’ isn’t accurate Les. There was understandable vitriol near the end of his tenure after he stopped paying wages and tried to move us to Gainsborough. Everything before that was justified criticisms and concerns. All the threads related to this period are still around if anyone wanted to do an objective and fair appraisal.

    From the off, the stench was as strong as that coming in off of the docks @ Grimsby due to an easterly wind.

    Rene would have the whole squad on a Saudi mini break I reckon:)

    Nah, a 9 hour flight would be exhausting.
    I’d pick a 3 hour flight to Faro.

    You’re not exactly nearby are you Rene?

    Maybe you don’t know as much about these things as you make out you do…..

    I know nowt about bikes and don’t want to.
    F1 is something else I’ve not bothered with for probably 30 years.
    It’d be a sad world if we all liked the same.

    Sweepstake as to when he nets his first goal?

    Running out of chances to score his second of the season.

    Will he?

    We give them plenty of free ideas on here – pity they don’t employ people who can come up with them themselves… and they are being paid!

    Stamps name may be chanted from the DRE today.

    Be almost as cringy as “there’s only one Dave Hilton chants” suggested by the Facebook group.

    Poor decision by the club banning from the ground and sets a precedent. However, they knew what they were getting when they re-hired him, was a strange decision at the time and it’s come back to bite them.

    There’s only one David Hilton
    And one David White
    There’s also, only one David Anderson
    Let’s not forget, one David Mellors
    There’s only one David WHAM
    One David WHAM
    There’s only…

    Pretty sure he said on yesterday’s Humberside interview he has had a setback and won’t be in the squad.

    Carlton or Beck to start then.

    Rose out for another 2 weeks or so. Another start for Kelly at right back I’m guessing.

    FFS, he’s not coming back at all is he?!

    ?Looking like they may have flogged him (provisionally) on the Q.T.?
    ?With a clause by the buying club excluding him from the remaining games?

    Can’t see that happening Rene he’s just not fit, medial ligaments can be a problem and don’t always respond the same to treatment from player to player, he’s toast as an Iron player IMO.

    We miss him.
