The difference BLT was we did our homework on them and had a game plan and set up to stop them scoring but I think they just came here to win the game.

Bartonscorpion, the club put a statement out 22 hours ago, well before your post “looking” for the sacking of the manager. Sometimes you just have to admit you got it wrong
For your information, I still cannot find any info on the club site, if you are refering to a face book statement, I have never used that face book thing. So please take it that neither Wondergoals or myself have and had no idea, and Northumbiron, that statement on Saturday usually follows a manager either getting sacked, or after being put on gardening leave, but as usual, you people always look for the worst possible side of other people, this never changes, and it is usually stated in cases like this “due to a family bereavment” not “DUE TO PERSONAL REASONS”.
Anyway whats the point, you are always correct, and we are always wrong.

you can’t fail to recognise me from what posters have said about me
And I’ll be easy to recognise for similar reasons!
Either mortarboard and cape and carrying a cane. Or bearded, with a beret bearing a red star!

I’m not on Facebook either just the old fashioned world wide web
Scunthorpe United can confirm first team manager Neil Cox was absent from Saturday’s game against Exeter City after receiving news upon arrival at the stadium that his father had been taken ill.
Neil’s dad sadly passed away on Sunday and the manager would like to thank the staff on Ward 22 of Scunthorpe General Hospital on behalf of his family for the care and support they provided for his father.
Everyone at the football club sends their sympathies to Neil and his family, who are in our thoughts at this sad time.
I know it will be bloody hard and the timing is rotten. Look, it’s bloody terrible in fact but what can anybody really do ?
Treat someone like a human being? Give the man a couple of weeks off to grieve, to organise everything that comes with a family bereavement, to attend the funeral? I mean, is that too much to ask?
No, it’s terrible what’s happened to him. As I said before, I wouldn’t wish that on anybody. I feel for him, I really do.
I also feel for this football club though and don’t want us to be stuck in a situation where we keep him here for the foreseeable future which relegates us in the process just because we didn’t part company because due to feeling guilty.
I’m thinking of both parties, believe me. I know the importance of staying up..if we go down, that’s us pretty much finished as a football club.
I get your passion for the club WG, I really do, but you have to treat employees as people. You’ll get more out of employees if you treat them with a bit of respect.
And, anyway, looking at the squad, I am not persuaded that a change of manager will make that much difference to our results, especially if the claims that the loanees have to play are true.

Awaywego the difference between us and the other clubs you name is the owners not the league you are in.
If the owners do what they say they are going to do the fans will support them.
If the owners promise one false dawn after another they won`t.7 users thanked author for this post.
Awaywego, I am happy to stake a fair wager that, if we get relegated to the Conference, we won’t be getting 6,000+ for a Tuesday night game in our first season in that division.

NI i shall be there to, come up and have a word, you can’t fail to recognise me from what posters have said about me. The Neanderthal arm dragging with racist tattooed on my forehead. Would love to meet you at last and put a face to your name.
I doubt you have a tattoo on your forehead, SWMBO’s thumb mark there is another matter though! 😜

“If we go down then attendances will most likely Plateau at 1,500 with only the diehards who will watch us regardless.”
Plateau implies an elevated level. Gates are more likely be depressed to a lower level, so SINK may be a more appropriate word.1 user thanked author for this post.

Don’t go because we’re playing shite or your not being entertained, but because Swann is chairman give over.
Eh? Why would anyone expect to be entertained watching 4th division football?
Protesting the running of the football club is a perfectly reasonable explanation of people staying away.

Thanks for the offer awaywego. You never know, a pig might fly one day.

Anyway, I thought Exeter played really well. Fan owned club as well
I wonder if Spireiron turned up, or perhaps he’s found yet another club to ‘support’.
