Pugh looks much better now that Nelson has taught our lads the importance of movement off the ball. His passes usually find a man now.

A fascinating listen.
Interesting emphasis that PS has not taken a penny out of SUFC.
Good to hear that there are investors around too.
For the first time in a month – I have a tiny tinge of genuine optimism!3 users thanked author for this post.
Unlike Look North not to offer him a chance to defend himself.
Perhaps we may assume that he refused to talk to them.
Nice one, Matt Dean!1 user thanked author for this post.
I think you must have read my piece but not the heading, BS.
I also wrote that all the Chesterfield players were better than all of ours.
Just how optimistic do you think I am?
The underlying theme was that we are heading out of the league BUT with new owners – there is something solid we can build on.
Positive – moi? – Only when I hear that Sharp and Elliott are in control.1 user thanked author for this post.
It’s not called ‘irony’ for nothing, 64.

This is all so unfair.
What we need is someone to list all the promises that Peter has made – and kept – to the supporters of the Iron.
A second list showing – if there are any – ones which might, arguably, have been broken could also be compiled.
With this comparison in place – we’d all be able to see precisely what the truth has been.
I am sure that this would bring an end all the unreasonable attacks made on Peter.
It would surely be a great relief to him and to any who have made unjustified comments on Bru who will then welcome having the opportunity to apologise.1 user thanked author for this post.
To be fair to Nelson – I think that the whole appearance of this lot as a team has improved under his stewardship.
I would go as far a to say that I don’t think we’d have been in the bottom four if he’d been in charge since KH’s departure.
His side looks as if: clean passing has not been abolished; there is some kind of organisation; there is an actual plan; he attempts to get players going forward; his team looks the hardest working we’ve seen in quite a while.
I think he quite probably has earned the right to stay in post in the unlikely event that there is a takeover and new bodies are brought in.
The easy counter to this is to point out the lack of wins – in which case I’d point out the fact of him having so few real defenders to work with.4 users thanked author for this post.
It is popular in some quarters to abrogate all personal responsibility from addicts by using the word ‘illness’ which is dangerously incorrect.
The fact that some people have a much greater propensity for self-harm via addictions is not in dispute, however. It may not sound much different – but it truly is.
In all forms of addiction, sufferers have to ‘own their problem’ before they can eventually beat it.
I have considerable experience over years in dealing with people who are addicts of one form or another.
At the moment, I work closely alongside the CAB whilst attached to fronting a foodbank. Addicts are heavily represented amongst our customers. Just one situation amongst many where I have had experience trying to help addicts over years.
They need: love, encouragement, warmth, advice, practical help, referrals but the one thing I refuse to do is utter the deadly words “You are not to blame.”
I talk in depth with many over a year. I can’t think of a single person who is prepared to share their problem who does not admit that, in the end, they are the ones who have to tackle it.
The ones who do not/will not “own their addictions” are the ones who, generally, tumble into the abyss.
So very tragic.3 users thanked author for this post.

A few postponed matches throughout December might work in our favour.
