The winding up petition was avoided the owner seems to have found some more money to pay his solicitors bill.
So that’s one positive for them.

Standard tactic from Ron Martin over the last few years, pay every bill until the last minute.
Hopefully they come through it, they’ve been through the wringer and then some.

Paying £50 for something you’ve not seen yet sounds a bit strange.

Lol, Bad Apple?! And he accuses others of being idiotic and ‘on crack’.

If anybody knew Badapple then you wouldn’t be stupid enough just to think he would leave the forum and not have other accounts he posts on. Badapple had a track record of such behaviour.

It wouldn’t even surprise me if he currently had more than one.

Of the Hilton cheerleaders* one has 2, and three others are on here. easy to spot.

Is that for the Iron Bar WG? Or the bar under the Clugston stand?

The new equipment is for the cellar and bar area within the Iron Bar. I do however recalling Michelle stating that the new head of catering will be bringing new equipment for the catering points.

This new head of hospitality/catering is the real deal and did a stellar job at Hull Kr. This is all in very capable hands. Drinks are top be improved, along with the food offerings. Another Scunthorpe based firm called Cookie People have signed a deal with us to sell their products on matchdays.

Things are coming together nicely.

The ground is looking very fresh, The catering side of things is to be drastically improved upon and we’re to get solar panelling fitted in around a months time which is going to lessen the electric bills.

How the hell has this all happened this quickly from where we were ?

I have no idea what if anything has gone on behind the scenes, but the club is in good hands with the four shareholding directors whom I fully support.

For the record Simon built up a relationship with WHAM to try to limit the damage inflicted on our beloved club.

He worked behind the scenes with a lot of other people to resurrect our club and spent a lot of time and effort doing so.

I hope that Simon has not left the board on bad terms and is still a major player in the fortunes of Scunthorpe United FC in the future.

The club is in a totally better place than it was under Ernest or WHAM but there is still a long way to go before the club can return to League football and we need people like Simon around to make that happen.

I will point to the global companies who have sponsored us due to Simon’s connections primarily in the motor industry as one positive example.

This whole post reads like a statement from Simon.

Mark Johnson is singing his praises on SUFG.. But he uses hospitality a bit and Simon was obviously getting the drinks in..Was also part of Swanny’s chosen few..

I’m pretty fair though I do allow her to have claim to new years eve and where we go to, hopefully not to far so I can get back to go to footy.

But that was a Liverpool victory in 78.

It was a constant effort not to switch the volume off when Dean was being interviewed.

It’s notable that Dean has had absolutely nothing to say since leaving Scunthorpe United – at the least you’d have thought he’d be offering a word to the fans.

After all the abuse he got from majority of our fans?

Don’t blame him at all!

Hopefully the Fantastic Four are reading this. Can’t have someone mentally unstable having a role within the club.

They’re just any other small town club, who have been through the same struggles as us. i don’t hold any dislike for them how it’s turned out. Not like when they were a bogey club for us in the Nineties.

Plus WAW upset another NL league club, which was a bonus.

Now i wonder if Ian Sharp can use his contacts and get a “This is Wrexham” type documentary on the go.

I have never seen the Iron play well with 3 centre backs but I have only been watching for 50 years.

Given that at least 80% of the time last season we faced 1 up front why on earth would we want to play 3 centre backs?

Chris Hope, Russ wilcox and Richard Logan?

Logan was a Midfielder when he came from Plymouth, although he played all over. He’s here he’s there hes ******* Richard Logan…

Remember Walsh and McAuley wing backs and Sertori-Wilcox-Hope as 3 Centre backs? how long did that last?

I don’t know about racsim. Roj is still on the CIC but definitely issues on the Board. I’m no fan of Ian Sharp, fair enough it’s not a secret, because he did try to sue the Club and everyone forgets that. He was the main reason that Mike has been thrown out, sure they will announce that soon. Heard that from someone at the Club. Ian also has lots of wealth yet they want volunteers to do work for free. He is a user wants the glory of being an owner but without willing to put hands in his pocket. Using Michelle as a front person.

Has this upset you more than Klopp leaving?

He was one of the first people i spoke to when i went to my first match. Before others came along he was the complete superfan, he would do anything for United.

Standing at the back of the Donny Road end you would look out until John made his way up to relieve you of a quid or maybe more.

I saw him last at South Shields too, he was more than a bit upset with the way the club was going down the pan.
Hopefully the club will look after his lad and grandson at future games – the family deserve it.
Rest in Peace John.

The new board have been more than open with the club’s situation. This just gives time for people to salivate who backed the wrong horse.

But as it’s here… be my guest

I see your backstory on the manager’s family went in one ear and out the other on SUFG SF. Not surprised.

That’s bizarre him getting a move, think Accrington have ran out of money.

Clubs bigger than SUFC have changed their badges because of 3rd party organisations using it.

I think the 70s badge, someone on SUFG wanted the club to bring it back and when they didn’t thought sod it i’m going to use it anyway.

Using the new badge, Grifter behaviour.

Friendly club, had some americans come in with daft ideas(watch out them lot down the A15..)but over that now.
Would prefer Crewe as they ended Doncaster’s season but may the best team win as they say.

Has anyone heard there will be a game on sunday involving a few fans?

No, me neither.
