Does it give you more clarity /hope for the future ?
If the steelworks closed, what hope would there be for the town?

Did I get this right that only 30% of the wage bill goes on players’ salaries?
Redundancies in the pipeline – fancy him spotting that we are no longer a Championship club. Swann never spotted that!1 user thanked author for this post.
The one difference between Hilton and Swann is the former actually followed through with his promises at his previous club, while the latter fluffed at Gainsborough and was full of excuses.
This is not to say we shouldn’t be sceptical of Hilton, and I have put forth my own concerns, but we can’t write him off just yet.

Non playing wage bill is higher than the players wage bill.
Which ain’t a surprise as the squad is made up of youngsters, loanees, crocs, & lower non league journeymen.
I wonder how much the ‘restaurant’ lost each month – I’d seriously like to know the answer to that one.1 user thanked author for this post.

Topics: 59It’s not happening, Rene. JD gets a fresh notepad to write on. Okay. I’ll accept that but with a few reservations.
DH seems to be approaching the future without an ego trip. Loadsa tough and painful decisions to be made. I don’t envy him.
Promise – no loans – only donations. Promise – the max will go into the player budget.
Promise – in my words – to run a tight ship.
His Ilkeston history encourages me that he keeps his promises.
Food at GP to be sorted – the biggest promise of the lot?

Players were told about moving training to Ilkeston when? This or last week did he say? Don’t suppose that’s effected their attitude on the pitch has it?? Then you’ve got Dean bringing up a toxic culture at the club as a reason for their poor recent performances. ‘Oh, by the way, training’s moving to Ilkeston, now go out there and give 110%!’. What planet?

If you can be bothered to listen to the interview Hilton near the end he said the fans have 3 choices and laid them out, which one are you Deerey?

The new club owner of barely three months must be heartily relieved he isn’t being written off just yet. FFS 🙄

What is so preposterous about my statement when people like Rene seem determined to write him off and have done since day one?
listened to the whole interview and i was fine with all DH comments until he got to the manager and backing JD, obviously he must of had gummy bears in his lug holes and wearing those special rose tinted glasses not seeing the glaring selection and lacking tactical awareness issues most of us see as clear as a wart on yer helmet.
Im sure i heard him say he was relieved this season was nearly over .. correct ?
DH is worth backing , seems he has a plan which include JD n Co so lets unify and see where they can take SUFC next season.

Topics: 59Still not happy with the season tickets- supporters should be able to commit to a season ticket using a card in 2023. The other option means paying an extra tenner each game for step 2 non league football which will put many off.
Understand the reason for moving the training facility as it stands- however, developing a facility within Scunthorpe should be a priority.
Always knew the academy was going, it’s a shame but it hasn’t produced anything of note for a long time now and will turn into money pit once the EFL funding goes.
Never nice hearing staff will be losing their jobs, but again, the reality of the situation is we are soon to be competing in a league with Buxton and Farsley; we have to become sustainable and that’s going to upset a few along the way.
Not sure how the signing of cat 1 academy will work. Are we permanently signing them and then loaning them out for development ?
Can’t believe the playing staff budget is 30% of turnover, no wonder we are witnessing the dross we are.
