The article also tells us that their home kit is already in the club shop, no pre-order now receive by Xmas either.
We have not even seen what our kit is going to look like, never mind being able to buy it!
Shoddy on and off the field, must do better.

The plan being there is no plan! Keef has to go plain and simple.
The whole playing ethos and tactics need vast improvement, it’s more of the same old perverbial crap football from a second rate squad.
The happy clappers can polish a turd only so much before they realise it just won’t shine and leaves a stink under your finger nails.

Might have been harsh on Bunn Ferrite, but honest, 20 apps and 1 goal.
Has he is not yet with a new club others within football obviously agree.
We are sat here debating left backs etc and other trialists. It is a goalscorer we are desperate for. A 20 goal a season man can paper over the cracks and possibly cover up a very poor squad peppered with youngsters.
But that would depend on the manager wanting his players to get the ball into the box in the first place. We spent most of last season going backwards, kicking the ball out, or simply passing the ball to the opposition. Set plays were a disaster with the opposition often scoring from OUR corners or free kicks.
We were lacking in many areas and I cannot see Hilldo changing that with Boyce being the only addition. Delaney was class but ran ragged with the dross selected alongside him each week. I am also puzzled to know why people think Taft will suddenly become interested and want to play for our club.
PS Uti99 does your positivety come in liquid or powder form?

I lose hope everytime Uti99 posts his pro-club “everything in the garden is so Rosey, Monty Don must be the gardener”,stuff.

Maybe the builders can double up as players. Should be able to build a solid defensive wall, like footballers they usually start at 10 am, known to make the odd dribble here and there, and when you ask where the gaffer is they usually pass. Friday afternoons just after 1 pm they shoot off at will without a care in the world.

If it wasn’t for this excellent thread, would we have ever known or noticed. Sadly this gangly loafing striker who gave us an whole 2 minutes v Swindon before sitting on the center spot and disappearing into the non-league ether (a bit like our club) will next season 2023-24 inevitably score against us in National north.

We will be challenging for a National League north position under Hill.
His penchant for the younger players will cost us dearly. Muted signings are even 18 year olds. We need an experienced spine to the team.
I would expect any takeover Team (if it ever emerges) will give Hill a few games but will soon put their own man in.

Heard extracts of Hills interview on Radio Bumbleside.
Laying the Lancs accent on thicker than one of Betty Turpin’s hotpots.
Talking of thick ……..sorry he has to go.

Hills biggest achievement is making Neil Cox the second worst manager we have ever had.
That won’t change either.

Meanwhile back to the thread!
What’s happening Peter (the real string puller)?
Ownership?
New Kits?
Club/shirt sponsors?1 user thanked author for this post.
Getting all excited about a car registration at GP.
If it was the cod’s the telegraph would have a picture with the owner and an interview with the car number plate.
Another 22 adult, 3 U18 and 4 over 65 season tickets would be sold on the back of the article.

JD sports delivering the new kit for next season it was in the boot. All 75 shirts will be unpacked and on the shop shelves for christmas. Unless pre-ordered and it will be available for bonfire night.

The downside being the Telegraph at the moment.
Nothing on the Iron whatsoever, whilst the same paper gets excited by a new shoelace sponsor or their players turning up to the opening of a bag of chips.
Not bitter about their success at all, just can’t see the carousel of shit we are on at the moment ever stopping.

Time to stand up Peter.
The silence is deafening on a sale or no sale of the club.
Season ticket sales at over 1000 which is a third of the gate required for a break even 3000.
A club nearby dropping out the league and getting back at the first time of asking, with a decent manager who you described “as no good for this club”. A club who changed ownership and rode a positive wave whilst galvanising its support and not telling it to stay away due to COVID!
A club chairman that doesn’t make it all about himself and stays in the background whilst the manager manages and tries to play an attacking brand of football.
The formula works Peter it’s not a miracle. So prepare a few words on paper letting the supporters of Scunthorpe United FC know what is happening. Call it a press release, send to the local media outlets and refuse to speak to any media otherwise it will distort the message.
Alternatively write to each and every season ticket holder with an explanation surely their blind loyalty merits an update.

Fixtures are out 23rd June, the season starts as previously stated on August 6th, 2 weeks earlier than last season. The National League is not adjusting fixtures due to the world cup but will decide any fixture changes on a case by case basis.
The EFL is however starting earlier on 30th July with a break for Championship teams from 12th November and will resume on 12th December.
Leagues 1 and 2 will continue with fixtures through November and December as normal.
