Just been flicking through Twitter, after the news of Andy Butler’s appointment.

The wannabe local statesman MB is quite an annoying character, isn’t he!?

[Deereyme66]

There’s quite a few who wanted Dean to stay engaging in schadenfreude IMO.

[TheJuryeffsOut]

Yes. I find it comforting that almost everything I hear him say, particularly about football and Scunthorpe United, I disagree with.

I’m not saying he’s right or wrong about anything. The manner of his expression is what is offensive. Absolutely charmless self-congratulatory loon-eyed rot pot.

[cassidystash]

He’s a ‘politician’ – what do you expect.

Pity North Lincs didn’t go to the polls last night, Labour have lost their grip on Peterborough Council.

I don’t live in Scunny and know nothing about this guy ..or even what he puts on Twitter. But that description should, after Bob Dylan’s award, earn you a Nobel Prize for Lierature. :)

His tweet regarding Butler’s appointment popped up again. Get’s more irksome with every viewing. Uninstalling the X app

[Max Bell]

Yes, I am absolutely “staunch” Labour. The Tories are shafting Scunny Steelworks and Scunthorpe Hospital – so I decided to try and do something.

As weird as “n stick it up yer bum” makes you sound, I would always encourage anyone else to get involved with politics (no matter what your views).

Standing on the sidelines and bitching does rather sum up why this forum has completely died since Luke Thornhill handed it over to Matt Blanchard, though.

[Deereyme66]

I think you’ll find we generally get along pretty fine on here. I’m staunch Labour myself but IFA is perfectly entitled to his opinion. The last paragraph sums you up mate.

Sunday afternoon entertainment sorted

[Deereyme66]

Hilton enabler (along with his merry men) reckons the vipers nest that was the old Bru was dead good. The absolute irony of the present Bru ‘sniping from the sidelines’. I mean, I regularly post about people I ‘love to bits’ that they’re the cheap option and ‘hope it doesn’t all in tears’ when they get a new job. Who doesn’t?

Maybe if you posted about football on here (not politics, we have somewhere else for that) it would resurrect this dead site?
Or maybe not.

Max conveniently ignores the fact the Tories kept the steelworks open while in administration and we all know what they did to help save the ground.

David four names played Bell and his cronies like a fiddle ,

Think it has more to do with the fact that in Luke’s day Twitter and Facebook didn’t exist or were less ubiquitous. Since they gained traction internet forums across the web have declined. The Facebook page is hardly some den of welcoming views, where Hilton critics got abuse far worse than anything on here, yet it gets plenty of people talking.

As for comments about Matt, you don’t help yourself with your snide digs in the same manner as you criticise, and putting out false information to undermine Matt and Iron Bru because it suited Dodgy Dave.

Rumours are that he might have added another name now.

[Westyorksiron]

Attacking this forum and spouting drivel is an interesting tactic to persuade north lincs voters on here to vote for him and his labour mates.

He is so cringeworthy as are his cronies

[Deereyme66]

I’m taking ‘middle aged men’ as a compliment myself.

[CMC]

You have to be desperate for attention when:

Your media career is over before it started due to cost cutting
You back the first horse that comes along and it’s not the right one
Set up a platform to be all about you
Jump on the back of someone’s ideas – who you’d previously criticised
Try and be negative when the club you supposedly support is on an upward curve
Pick an argument with United fans who’ve been going 40/50/60 years

But then, you are Max Bell.

[Deereyme66]

Astonishing levels of Pinochioism and shithousery

[Iron-awe]

Don’t forget he’s a ginga, probably why he appears to have a permanent chip on his shoulder.

[Ferrite]

No need for name calling but otherwise the criticism in this thread is pretty mild. Is Max’s skin really that thin? I remember him being quite critical of a previous owner for a similar failing. Maybe they have more in common than divides them?

[cassidystash]

You’re right, no need for name calling. I apologise wholeheartedly for calling him a politician.
