I’d dearly love to join a boycott but living outside the town – it’s hard to see how I can buy fewer copies than my present zero.

Supporters do not know what happens behind the scenes nor on the training pitch. It’s impossible to judge when we are outside not able to see in.
There have been a number of players in recent seasons who have not helped the esprit de corps in the club.
Hopefully, the negativist little sweethearts will have all departed taking their toxicity with them.1 user thanked author for this post.
You may well be right.
His biggest problem has been the late arrivals of players. Creating a cohesive unit is difficult when new players don’t arrive in time for the start of training and haven’t had much time on the pitch in friendlies.
Have to admit that the quality – as best as you can tell at this point – looks better than I’d been expecting.IFA – if we get new owners – the striker situation will have to be remedied as Job Number One.
If they can’t do that – then only shall we have problems. They must know that they have to come in prepared to spend six or seven hundred k in the next few months or there is zero chance of any bounceback.1 user thanked author for this post.
I know about frying pans and fires but when you get as low as we’ve gone – any move almost has to be upward.

I am surprised that there aren’t more attempts to convert CBs into CFs.
It is pretty rare these days but a good few attempts were made across the leagues in the 60s and 70s – some more successful than others, of course.1 user thanked author for this post.
There are always those who will hang onto old prejudices.
There are frequently supporters who will rarely give credit to a player that they have already pre-decided is a dud – even when he has given a 7+ out of ten performance.3 users thanked author for this post.
I do so hope you are wrong.
This is the IK end of the spectrum – the opposite to the WG end.
I’m rooting for WG’s view, of course, and always attempt to be optimistic if I can.Is there any possible centre ground here?

Am I missing something?
160 flats at £1k pa = £160k pa for The Iron.
This is so huge a sum that it will leave the club set up for immeasurable future success.
Did I mishear? Are my ageing brain cells letting me down? (Are we forgetting inflation?)
It would pay the annual salary of a single decent centre back. Great. But hardly game-changing, is it?It has to be that costs of forwards are prohibitive.
At the minimum we must have a CB and a striker. But how?
Are we banking on new owners as imminent?
PS is suggesting that is, at least, a possibility and that they would spend on the team.1 user thanked author for this post.
If …
So many clubs get to this point then the deal collapses.
Let’s get excited when the deal is done.7 users thanked author for this post.
The T&T lad is impressing. That may work.
Ntlhe covering LB and CB. It may work.
Still need two forwards. One urgently.Both on paper and what we could see in what was, admittedly, a friendly – I reckon KH has earned the right to try managing a squad for what, in reality, is the first time.

Might well have agreed but the matter has now been closed. He’s made a contrite apology and will still be here this season.
Water under Keadby Bridge. Reluctantly or not – time for us to move on.1 user thanked author for this post.
