    I would love to be proved wrong but past history shows Swann has been very quick to sack .. something has changed where now he is so reluctant to give Cox n Lillis the boot when they are so clearly inept at all aspects of football management .. for sure the longer Swann for whatever reason doesnt sack them it will come to the point its just too late who ever comes in post Cox Lillis.. the damage will be done and beyond repair if its left much longer .. a win at home on Saturday against Crawley would certainly keep them at the helm longer .. silly but would another home defeat this weekend be enough for then to be dismissed ??? i doubt it .

    Kieth Hill isnt a manager im familiar with need to read up on him and his past positions etc.

    Nigel Adkins return would be great but ill show my arse in Woollies window if it happens.. he has moved on and i doubt would give the idea much thought.

    Who would want to manage SUFC with Swann in charge????

    Exactly .. i cant name a single half decent AVAILABLE experienced manager that would want to come to Scunny .. with or without Swann ..though i suspect without it may be easier to find the right man.

    Oh for the heady days of Laws n Adkins and a squad with pride, passion and owners that really cared about the club and the fans… SUFC were the pride of Lincolnshire in those days , now a laughing stock.

    Thats where we are heading the York Chester Darlo route …. and that is if the Club survives at all as being wound up and cease trading is a real possibility.

    Parasitic Swann doesnt give a toss hes holding all the clubs assets and his property developing mentality to make sure he comes out of this ok kicked in long ago.

    BTW what is the current value of SUFC IF it was put up for sale ???????

    Just read the statement put out by Swann .. WALOB.. dont believe a word that comes out that fellas gob .. the snaffling of the ground and renaming it was done to protect him and him alone.
    He says hes bank rolling the club .. getting Cox in on the cheap and allowing him to sign all the dead wood no one else wanted re crocked ” experienced ” Kenyon etc to name just one… also very poor loan signings dont help…but WTF would want to come to SUFC in its current state ??

    remembering games at The Old Show Ground in the Donny Rd end .. they were great, days when we had a club.

    That last post might have been on the wrong thread …but just to clarify IMO Cox tactical decisions are head shaking as are his team selections , formation and game plans … you can only blame covid for so much and having the balance the books with basically the loss of a whole half decent squad ..alas a parasitic uninterested owner couple with an inexperienced low level manager a recipe for disaster.
    As said on another thread its time for a change to 4 3 3 … or preferably in the board room and touchline individuals… but cant see that happening.
    Cox would not get a job in the 1st or 2nd divisions where im based and they are years behind the English game.

    Hi Guys ..new to this forum.
    Living overseas but Iron fan for decades and just had to vent at the current shambolic state the clubs in.
    Swan got rid of Alexander who was IMO along with Laws n Adkins one of Scunnies best gaffas , Swan was quick to sack in the past but now not so with Cox when clearly “a local lad” or not he must go Swan is first n foremost a businessman with little interest in football ..hes a parasite destroying the club.. he got Cox on the cheap and along with Cox came Lillis n Co .. Lillis should be sat stinking of piss with joe Biden in a care home.
    As far as i see it little fight , passion and loyalty in this group and NL football is pretty much nailed on as i cant see a winning streak coming with this lot… once in the NL the Iron could well do a Southend and struggle thus finding themselves out of bizz when Swan finally jumps ship…the NL is a nightmare to get out ov once there and some bigger richer clubs have been stuck for years.
    Carlisle are in a similar position owner wise hence in the same sort of shit .. i can see a gap opening and the Iron being down by Christmas .. making it worse the codheads are on the up.
    I still miss my home games , a few pints in the Iron bar ..and more so the great away days i enjoyed in years gone by.
    Its difficult to keep the faith .. but im CLARET N BLUE ALL WAY THROUGH.
    UP THE IRON
