Well, if I’m correct, the training photos certainly look like the training pitch at Glanford Park.
But I may be wrong 🤔

You’re someone who reads something and sees something completely different!
Did you purposely ignore the words in the original post “Don’t go for a few months though”?

[sufc_not_on_tour]

I’m still interested as well.

Baffling why when someone posts some good news about the club that someone who isn’t privy to that information accuses the bearer of the good news as talking out of their backside.
I made an error in the directions but when it was pointed out I corrected it, if you aren’t clever enough to follow the corrected direction the perhaps you’d better wait for Hilton/White to confirm it.

So if you know it’s Quibell Park, fine, then just say it’s Quibell Park without the histrionics, left right up down fire, reads like the bloody Golden Shot ( you won’t remember) it was crap too.

Only you appear to have an issue with this, I bet you’re an absolute riot at parties.

You should change your username to “Iron read it on Twitter”
The two things you have ticked were tweeted by various people in the days before you posted on here.

Before I comment on Iron Insider.
I dislike the Swann’s with a passion, I’ll never either forgive or forget what they’ve done to the club I’ve supported for nearly 60 years.
Also, I neither like or trust Hilton, I’m almost certain his tenure will end in catastrophe for our once proud football club.
Now I’ve established that, I don’t believe that Iron Insider is an insider, I believe he’s just a troll who has nothing better to do with his time.
He posts as if he knows what’s going on but none of what he post’s actually comes to fruition.
The moderators should perhaps add an ignore button on the forum so we don’t have to read the diatribe he posts.

[sufc_not_on_tour]

Would Swann evict us out of spite?
Would it be too complicated to sell it off with a football club claiming squatters rights?
How desperate are the Swann’s to raise money by selling it?
Hilton is either very clever or very stupid, I don’t know which but I’m certain we’ll find out in the not too distant future.

If we’re evicted any time from now, do we have permission from the authorities to play at Gainsborough or another stadium?

That’s a good question, I don’t have the answer and I would be surprised if Hilton does either.

The post liked by the forum member who on Facebook publicly bad mouthed this forum and its members and stated he wanted nothing more to do with any of us on here.
Couldn’t keep away Kitchener AKA Ellis from Brighton?

Oh dear Prat O’ Cake, you’ve excelled yourself this time by using a quote taken completely out of context to suit your own agenda.

Define your use of the word “needlessly” in this incident please.

[sufc_not_on_tour]

I object to the word “tragedy”.
Wealthy people who spunk fortunes away to purposely put their lives at risk as well as the people who are attempting to rescue them.
A tragedy is the people who were needlessly killed in Nottingham, a tragedy is the dozens of people killed at the Manchester arena bombing, a tragedy is the deaths of nearly a hundred football fans at Hillsborough.

[sufc_not_on_tour]

I’ve just had a look on the Facebook page, I’m not a Facebook user but it allows you to read it but obviously not reply.
I read the 1st paragraph of Hilton’s reply, I got to this part….
“ I think people would be quite surprised in respect of our level of playing budget and the lads are far more interested in the project than the money”
I didn’t read further as I don’t believe a word of that statement!
If it is true then we must’ve found the only professional football players in the entire world who aren’t interested in what they earn.
That’s my opinion, if anyone disagrees I’d be interested to read your view.

According to this person on the Scunny Fans Facebook group, there doesn’t appear to be any problems and everything in the garden is rosy, particularly communication. Shame these supposed fantastic interactions are limited to Facebook. What about the majority of fans who don’t access it? To be frank, I think it’s piss poor limiting interaction to a sycophantic Facebook group.

‘Can we just have an appreciation post for David White , for amazing interaction/contact with the fans , for saving not just my club but OUR club , for keeping us all in the know with any information regarding the situations of the ongoings at the club , signings etc , just a massive thank you for giving us all Iron fans faith again into what’s been some really troubled few years . Thank you so much , we all have your back . There’s a few idiots but for every 1 idiot there’s a 1000 iron fans supporting you the whole way , so Thank you. Oh and one more thing , Up the f****** Iron !’

Wow, I assume that’s a post on Facebook.
There’s no wonder Scunthorpe United are in the predicament they are with gullible fans like that.

[sufc_not_on_tour]

It’s fine assembling what appears to be the best squad in the league if we haven’t either a tried and tested manager or a stadium to play in.

Maybe it’s the miserable bar stewards that haven’t one good word to say about the club they say they support.

This is a more interesting comment that some might think.

I’d definitely come under the “Hilton-sceptic” camp here but it is not because I haven’t got one good word to say about the club. It’s precisely the opposite. It’s because I care about the club that I will always question those running it. What are their intentions, what are their motivations, what is their background? Because I want what’s best for the club and I don’t want its name to be dragged through the mud. Look at what the last 10 years have done to us: we’re a complete laughing stock and even when we were flying higher under Swann we were deeply unpopular around the leagues for splashing the cash & a chairman who picked so many arguments with people in the game. I want Scunthorpe United to be respected as a club, not just for its achievements on the pitch, but for what it means to the town, for its youth teams, for its social engagement, in general for doing things the right way.

I found it almost impossible to proud of the club under Swann and I don’t want to feel that way again. Hilton, for me, has got off on completely the wrong foot and has made many of us very sceptical. It’s on him now to change that perception.

Ultimately, I’m an optimist and want what’s best for the club. I don’t want us to go the way of Bury, Darlington, Chester, or many other non-league clubs. I want a Scunthorpe United we can all be rightly proud of.

Up the Iron, up with questioning.

Cracking post.

I imagine Lord Kitchener will internally combust trying to process a dual position on the matter

I do hope so, she’s obviously not playing with a full deck.
Says one thing on here and something completely different under her own name on the Happy Clappers site.
Just an attention seeker, I could think of other names for her but I’ll save those for later.

Well, well, well Ellis, why are you so interested in anybody’s opinion on here?
I thought you’d made it plain on your Facebook thread that you have no time for either this forum, the owner and moderators or indeed the members of the forum.
Then why do you put yourself through the obvious trauma of reading and posting on here?
You even have your own thread in “non football”, perhaps you’d post your explanation in there.

Will I be receiving an apology?

No apology required or will be offered.
It was simply a case of pressing “quote” on the wrong post.
A senior moment plus it was early in the morning, perhaps too early.
As for the forum member it was intended for, I see he’s now on the fans Facebook page almost daring the forum owner to ban him, if it were me, I would oblige him.

Oops.
As for the rest,bunch of snides apart from Martin who has always been up front about his disdain.
It’s quite irksome that people who did nothing to help when it was more difficult to run a site like this with little or no money before the lazy the lazy method(Facebook groups) and start having a pop and calling users on here sad.

Worth noting that Michael and Ellis have both been clicking “like” on each others posts since their outing each others usernames on Facebook.

I see said Iron Bru contributor has resurfaced in the Blast Furnace on a couple of threads.
Probably thought his Facebook rant had slipped under the radar.

It’s worth noting that at the same time the same person who started a thread on Facebook slagging us all off was posting on Iron Bru.
His posts on here gave no clue as to his dislike of either the forum or the people who post on here, unlike his Facebook posts.
