Are the FA not interested in this ‘potential’ situation?

My thoughts exactly especially after the recent warning / slap on the wrists…

Be smashing at some point in the future for Scunny to draw either Spalding or Matlock in a competitive fixture..

[ironfromafar]

Wouldnt be surprised to see fringe players

Shrimpton
Boyce
Rowley
Brogan
Law
Campbell
all start.

im going for 1-1 .. reply back at AAGP

To be fair he did buy land for a new ground.

Or maybe it was a bit of a fib.

I had forgotten about the land on Glebe rd i wonder what happened to that ?? did the signs ever come down ??
The 1899 scam … i guess that may have been sorted by the new owners ..
bottom line is in the early days quite afew were taken in by WHAM (me included) alas he was and probably still is a wrongurn though i must say hes obviously still living rent free in lots of Scunny fans heads going by the number of threads on BRU at the mo (thanks Rene your a gem 55555)…

Nice to see a Matlock fan come on another thread and comment re their share system and the “mystery” investor rumoured to be you know who.

Seems Scunny fans are the new Bury fans shedding light tp MTFC if WHAMs life away from football has ceased (didnt last long did it).

Pray for Matlock Town ..

we should have a sweep stake as to what name the new investor will be using.

What’s happened to Simon Elliot? Does he. No longer attend or just removed from his perch?

Good question nary a mention or sighting of the lesser spotted Elliot.. the days of strutting on the pitch fist pumpin the DRE are well n truly gone ..maybe he has quite literally fallen out of love for the club..heyho.

As for Mr Herbery out early so can fit more rioters in the jails possibly .. wasnt he banned for AAGP?

[ironfromafar]

Reports / rumours coming in overnight that Hilton is the new owner of Matlock Town ?? if true seems the FAs warning fell on deaf ears ..also now being debated on the SUFC fans FB page where onr poster who previously supported Hilton to the death now wants him thrown in jail.

One can only pray for Matlock town IF ITS TRUE THAT IS.

Bet Jimmy now wishing he hadnt jumped at the Spalding job as they are deep in trouble and surely WHAM would make him his first signing after his “success” at Scunny.

[ironfromafar]

Nooooooooooo theyve equalized

[ironfromafar]

all the other games commentary is fine .. but i dont car about them only Scunny .. cant get the NLTV either , all ive got is action updates via flashscore .. im a tad peeved

[ironfromafar]

Found the radio commentary link but its blocked due to tech or contractual issues … anyone else getting this same rolling message when logging in … second time this season its been blocked.

Would take a draw tonight .. and thats my prediction .. 2-2

[ironfromafar]

Many thanks for the messages guys.

[ironfromafar]

good luck to JD .. cracking bloke .. he remained diligent and focused in our clubs darkest days and even with the Hilton monkey on his back he did OK .. wishing him success at SFC

[ironfromafar]

Been off the radar last few days .. only saw the fantastic Kiddy win today as very sadly my brother passed away suddenly on his birthday and have been attending his funeral in Northern Thailand , indeed a week that has and will change life for ever..
I am now the last remaining from our direct family, very sad as he left not only a beautiful wife but a young son.

On the footy front …..i hope all keep a level head and take a game at a time .. no more HMS piss the league this year as it made us look twats last season.

As for Curzon A they stuffed us last season so a bit of payback would not go a miss.

For me football is and always be just a game , i will follow SUFC where ever they play ..

There is more to life than the footy … thought it does help keeping ones mind active in times of intense grief.

Actual appointed managers Hill Cox Hurst 3 worst in my memory ..

[ironfromafar]

One of the strangest post match manager interviews ive seen seemed frustrated almost to tears … little man syndrome , wife wears the trousers and wet the bed as a child.

The man is a Dick ..as they say in Geordie land Y i hes a Dickman.

Whall , Charlton and Roberts all start… Kelly in , Beestin on bench quite a shake up ..still no Shrimpton.

Scales and Clunan gonna be very busy tonight.

STICKING WITH MY SCORE DRAW PREDICTION

‘ Just wish he’d go Whitehall, Carlton; Roberts as a front three, would scare most NLN defences.’

Love to see that ..but realistically cant see AB going with it… it would mean Scales or Beestin miss out.

Yeah I’d take a draw tomorrow and a win next Friday night, four points from the next two games would be an excellent return looking at the opposition we face.

Yep same here… how ever it happens 4 points from the next 2 fixtures would be excellent.

Im going for a score draw tonight.

Im 60 next bday so going on my prediction below the jury is still out.

3-5 years to get out of the NLN
Then
5-10 years to get out the NL at the right end and back into the EFL.

Thats a min of 8 max of 15 years could well be pushing up daisies by then.

Living abroad will give you more years…. so I say yes you’ll see it !

Planning a trip back at some point(covid n Bizz issues put paid to my last trip back to Blighty) and TBH i wont mind where the Iron are plying their trade at that time just be brilliant to be back at GP for as many games as time allows.

listened to commentary and made my ears bleed .. fully understand fans feeling frustrated at what seemed like ANOTHER uninspiring performance lacking attacking intent especially from open flowing football (not set pieces)… jury still out on the set up.

SS won 4-1 away today so big improvement needed for Monday.

Lucky for me Cox’s mike was very poor, barely heard a word but didn’t miss anything I’ve not heard before I’ll bet.
Message for Ollie Turner:-
No idea how many Iron fans listened to the match commentary but I know how many were interested in the score in the Hull KR rugby!!

Was hoping Cox would land himself another job which meant he would be unable to co commentate alas not yet ..wonder where Steve Torpey is ? im sure there are other ex Iron players that could come in to assist.

Indeed cass the constant HULL KR updates were a tad annoying but they were rolling in tries quite often .. at least no tech issues this week with unbroken “action” throughout.

[ironfromafar]

ok got to the commentary index page so just need to click on the Scunny Chorly tab after 1400 hrs and Bob should be my uncle !!

Iron 3 Chorley 0 just like Kylie I can’t get this clean sheet thing out of my head, I’m sure it will pass once we begin conceding.

I know what you mean re this clean sheet thing hovering in the mind n long may it continue ..

im sure there are some Iron fans thinking we will win every game not concede all season and finish with 138 pts and a goal difference of + 92

[ironfromafar]

Its that time of the week again ..

so far this season
Brackley could not get commentary
Marine no problem
N Mkt no problems

I know its early but im getting the same issues as when played Brackley ..

If poss please can any lovely Bru member post a link

TIA

[ironfromafar]

Nice wager Rene
Before a ball was kicked i had Buxton down as one of my surprise packages this year as well as Scarboro .. fancy both to be there or there abouts come the end of the season.

[ironfromafar]

Thats the spirit DM66 5555 … obviously anti optibuzz is catching, or giving it its proper name realism.
