I am at a loss. All this rumblings about investments etc. I have not heard one word from the mysterious CEO. Who is he, what does he actually do for the club, except take a huge wage for doing nothing. When she took him on Michelle said he do the day to day running of the club. Has anybody actually seen him at any matches?? Has he brought any new investment, any more sponsorships?? Michelle really made a mistake with him, she would have been better keeping Turnbull. He wasnt brilliant but at least he knew the club and supported it fully, probably at half the price.

I’m retired I would do the administrator for free!!

Surely the trick is to get a couple of goals and then let them waste as much time as they like. We cannot afford to go for a draw.

19 games, one defeat sounds good but why arent we out of site at the top of the league? Simple Brackley lost 10 we lost 5 however Brackley drawn 4 us drawn 12. Draws do not win leagues!!

The game in the Lincolnshire Senior Cup played at Bottesford was behind closed doors because we could not afford the security. How can they now afford the security/policing for a potential 10000 attending. They will have to employ personnel to ensure security for that figure and have to pay them!! If only a few hundred turn up those security will still have to be paid. You cannot wait until the day and try and reduce the security personnel when you realise how low the attendance is going to be.
As for a membership scheme, it was mentioned maybe £10.00 per month. The only perks that could be offered is a reduction in ticket/shop purchase etc. Giving with one hand taking it away with the other

If the play off final is 10th May and the team gets together again for preseason end of June begin July a matter of a few weeks it would be crazy to have your team on a 44 week contract. A no stability or continuity within the team. What incentive is there to a player if he knows that at the end of the season he hasn’t a job. If, like we normally do, we do not offer new contracts until the season has ended, the whole team could reject new contract leaving about eight weeks to put a team together from scratch. I cannot see any reasonable player signing to come here for 44 weeks when other clubs, may offer less wages but offer long term contracts. Defiantly a recipe for disaster.

Sorry what I meant to point out is that Rushall were in the same predicament as Warrington when we played them. Again we were expected to get a bucket full of goals and instead we lost. Are we in for a fall again this wek?

[JOHNMMAW]

We are not consistent, hence the reason why we are not top and out of reach instead of struggling to maintain a challenge.

My apologies, when I wrote my comment it was showing 4040 – I see now it has dropped to 3990. Still a few hundred not showing up and providing the money that the club desperately needs

[JOHNMMAW]

I dint think we can give him 4 6 more games, it will be far too late to catch up by then. We are already in a dire situation. People keep saying “but are third and haven’t been beaten in three games”. Take a look at the table, Curzon 2 pts ahead 2 games in hand, 3 teams below us have a game in hand, if they win them we will be in 7th place. On current form the only way we are going is down. Draws do not get you promoted, ask Russ Wilcox

Our supposed average attendance is 4040, gates recently are around 3500 (and decreasing) as season ticket holders will continue to turn up because they have already paid for their tickets it means the club is losing the revenue from the sale of tickets to 500 fans. At £15 per ticket thats £7500.00 minimum. This at a time when we had to play a cup match behind closed doors because we could not afford to pay for the security

See Billy Sharp playing for Donny and Garry Hooper playing for Kettering in FA cup. If Hooper is playing at this level should he not be playing for us?

[JOHNMMAW]

Does the board actually come to the match and watch the rubbish that is being served up, surely they can see AB is taking this club down. There is currently a petition going round asking for a new general election. Maybe its time we started a petition to the board for a new manager!!

Why do we sink to the level of these part time teams and play heading tennis, we are useless at it. Last two games change of tactics, 4 points, should have given AB an idea how we should play. Not for AB though, he wants his five, so what do we get – the worst performance from Scunthorpe probably ever. He has to go!!

Definately back to 5. AB has not learned anything over the ladt couple of games. Attack away defend at home.

[JOHNMMAW]

Yes along way to go but since his extension nothing has changed and does not look like it will change anytime soon. We are three points behind and teams around us have games in hand. Yesterday we showed thatbwe can be good going forward pity it didn’t happen until added time, when it was too late to retrieve the situation. Time is not on our side!!.
