    Which project has had more delays and postponements? The opening of the Sands Venue Resort Hotel in Blackpool, or the refurbishment of the Sands Venue Stadium? Which Planning Authority has been more difficult to deal with? Blackpool or North Lincolnshire?

    ” you must be at least 80 yes old, why should society be looking after you? can’t imagine your contributing to the wealth of the nation any more, in fact you are drawing a pension and are a drain on the NHS”
    Awaywego, this looks like an attack on the elderly. I disagree with most of BS’s ideas, but like many over 80s, (I am 87) I have over a long working life made full payments of National Insurance and Income Tax. It is only over the last few years that I have received expensive hospital treatment for free for a serious illness.

    Perusal of Blackpool Council Planning documents reveals a long standing dispute over the desisn and external cladding of the Sands Venue Hotel, yet to be finally resolved. Reminiscent of Swann v N Lincs Cuncil. When will he learn?

    What a contrast beween the personalities, character traits and intellectual level of the chairmen of Forest Green Rovers and Scunthorpe United. Surely these differences are obvious when considering their leadership qualities and the differing fortunes of the two clubs in recent years.

    “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.

    Would it perhaps help not use fans/customers at all but refer to those who venture to the SVS as punters?

    Or masochists?

    Mr Rashford’s penalty miss was an error, not a disgrace. He is a human being who shows his humanity by his concern for underprivileged underfed children. What is a disgrace is the fact that he is being pilloried by some members of this forum.

    Having read Big J’s contributions, I have come to the conclusion that I must, in his eyes, be a woke remoaner of a libtard persuasion. Ah well, I can live with that.

    I had a similar experience NI. Took my wife to be to Loftus Road in 1963 to see Iron play QPR. She has not been to a football match since then.

    Very sad to hear of his passing. I remember him playing for Scunthorpe Boys when several of my contempories at Scunthorpe GS played for the same team. I was never good enough to even play for the school team, but I enjoyed watching Len and my friends playing for the town team. A very loyal son of Scunthorpe.

    Several Football League teams have played against Rangers in cup competitions, Ibrox was for several years the biggest football stadium in Britain. Depends what you mean by “hosting”,

    If it is accepted that reffing has hit new lows, then all clubs are affected, not just the Iron. Whether the Iron is more affected negatively than other clubs is debatable.
