He’s gone

Yippee onwards and upwards.

Great news, I never saw this day ever coming, I must crack a bottle of 12 Year Dimple tonight (it is probably 30 year acually), what brilliant news this really is and I am over the moon to be proved wrong on this issue.

May I be one of the first on here to wish the new owner all the very best, and welcome to Scunthorpe United.

All newcomers sound positive but the quick paying of the HMRC tax bill to free us from the transfer embargo is such a tonic. We need to bring in the right players and obviously the fees will have to be sensible, let’s crack on David, nice one and welcome.

That’s dry January out of the window. Too late to get to Halifax now so BT sports and alcohol will have to do.

Out demons out!

[Anderson]

Welcome David. You already have the fans behind you. Wishing you all the best and the future looks bright.

There will be a time to scrutinise, but not tonight. Welcome to the club David, and up the f*cling Iron.

[TwoWrights]

Really pleased for you, and one in the eye for those claiming no buyers were out there.

Hmm when you going start moaning because you all will but you all make me laugh

[CMC]

I’ll believe it when the OWS is updated…

[Deereyme66]

It isn’t? Thought that’s what I was reading earlier?

[hakeeeeb]

Excellent news.
Now, next step is to build a solid squad around Shrimpt, Cribb. Did young Young already sign for Wycombe?

[lesgeo]

Bubbly followed by Red Spot in this household tonight!

[Iron-awe]

Think he went on trial hakeeeeb, a new owner might change things now.

A friend invited me to a Chinese Burns party. I didn’t particularly want to go but he twisted my arm.

In a meeting til 9 45. Greeted by excitement. (Wife not a football fan) “Guess what! Scunny have been sold!” Straight on the I pad to get the news.
Then thoughts of Halifax .. so … did that thing where you ease yourself in by looking at the table before you check the result ( Anyone else do it? Daft really) Now sitting with a wee dram of Bowmore. I feel ok tonight.

There we go, no members of a certain family on the board anymore

[cassidystash]

Still an insider (or two) on there though, they need to decide, and declare publicly, which side they’re on.

[premier iron]

Is it right that Turnbull is still there.After all he was Swanns mouthpiece?

[Siderite]

It’s not been 24 hours. I am sure an outline of the future is to come.

[Iron-awe]

Would love to see the names of Ian Sharp and Simon Morris on that board of directors list very soon. Think Turnbull should go but that’s just my opinion.

Agree with the first part 100%. Regarding Lee, I’d give him a chance to show his true colours when not operating with tied hands and ventriloquist’s voice.
