I think he has improved enough recently to be a decent player for Stockport County.
The posters on their message board are as miserable as you lot on here. 👎
This is true, away fans do their best to get behind the team. In my experience home fans just moan and gripe the whole match.
Best away attendance I have ever witnessed was in the fa cup vs West Brom in 84. After we knocked Leeds out in that second round second replay.
Happy days…

Any relation to Jenny and Mark?
Flashback of the Grand National that never was! 😂
Hill is going to assemble a team that contains many of what he refers to as “his men.” He is not going to do that than cut and run.
Swann does not deserve our support, but Kieth Hill does, at least as long as he is trying to save us from the grips of relegation,

So what, have we 20 games left?
If Kieth gets his players, then anything is possible. I’m not saying that I trust the chairman, I really don’t. But I do trust this manager. He had fed on scraps and survived many times in the past, but in our case he has a real challenge. I actually believe he is up to it.
We have seen what is probably going to be our downfall, and it may or may not happen. But we should surely be looking at it from a different angle. Plenty of matches left to turn this thing around,
Come on! UTI.

I’m just guessing here. I got the impression that Loft was better than the performances he put in for us. He gave us a glimpse in the match against Oldham, then went back to his sulking self.
He had to go, and there was no available replacement at the time. In short, he was taking the piss and getting paid for it. Shame we couldn’t give him a proper send off. Involving some heavy weights and a trap door….
I’m sure I heard Kieth say that any players wanting to leave can do so, if they can do so during the last couple of days of this transfer window.
If I heard that right, then more power to his elbow. If they don’t want to play for us they are not worth paying wages to.

Hill has had to leave it this late too. Probably something to do with getting shot of some deadwood to make way for new signings. I, like everyone else here, hope that it isn’t too late. But I am more confident in this manager than I ever was with Cox.
We have two or three really people important weeks ahead of us. Some gamechangers hopefully hitting the ground running..

It seems to me that our apparent inactivity in the transfer market has been planned so that Kieth can get players with whom he has had some involvement with in the past. I for one am happy to see a handful of Cox’s mistake get shown the door and be replaced by Kieth Hill’s tried and trusted,
Time to stand up and be counted Scunny fans! UTBI

They must have terminated his contract for a reason. Hope the Iron are not interested in this reject.

Seems like he is a right back anyways. Never mind!
Dirty (add expletive)! – Had he been one of our own I’d expect the club to take further action. But seeing as he is here on loan, he should be sent back, effective immediately. Disgraceful behaviour at any time, but during this pandemic? Good job the cameras caught him.

Thanks, I was going on memory from when I was still just a kid. Not our finest hour by any stretch.

That was the year (I’m pretty sure), when we went out of the FA Cup in the first round, beaten 0 – 1 at home by Barnsley.
The train from Donny was late, and it looked like they had very few supporters. Some Scunny fans attempted to get at them, and then suddenly they turned up in droves.
Long story short, a few of our lads got battered, as we suffered the humiliation of being kicked out of the Donny Road end, and having to crowd into the little corner. Only a load of police with dogs and truncheons stopped them getting at us after that.
I was only 13 at the time, stayed to the end. Don’t know why, it was embarrassing.
Interesting, so Keith will probably continue to play Rowe at DM. Could actually make a difference having a decent RB in the team.

Let’s just keep our fingers crossed, we are due a bit of luck.
0 – 1

January 13, 2022 at 9:09 pm in reply to: SWANNS Last Chance to Save Our Football League Status #221565The fat lady is getting ready to exercise her vocal cords in readiness for her song. There is time to change things, but Mr Swann doesn’t appear to show willing.
It’s getting tedious, and I fear that we will sign nobody in this transfer window. If that is the case then we are doomed.

It’s like telling an old person that he should be glad that he will be dead soon. That is not nice, and trust me, I can do nasty. I just know here and when to draw the line.

What is pissing me off with IFollow right now is all the bloody ads before every video clip. I’m already paying for it, why should I sit through 2.5 minute ads as well?
Come on Swanny, prove us all wrong.
You made the correct manager change, albeit three months too late, minimum. Now please back that decision up by paying off the EFL loan and getting behind Keith Hill with some money for new and better players.
He knows this league and a lot of the players in it. A striker, big and nasty (as some on here like to call them) is the very least we need. It’s desperate!

Perhaps we will see the new boy come off the bench and score our winner?
Wishful thinking I know. But he is listed as a sub..
Another of Keith’s personal favourites. Even unfit he could make it stink in our opponents areas. Just don’t think he would be getting back to help the defence much…
Who chose Burns Keith Hill or Swanns son?
I am to understand that Hill and Burns already know each other. Or perhaps they have been introduced through their links to Blackburn Rovers.
https://www.rovers.co.uk/news/2022/january/04/burns-secures-iron-switch/Loft versus Barton could be interesting. Will Joey take on anybody that big?
At least Lofty won’t have to have had his vaccinations at Bristol Rovers…
I don’t know. PCR tests are clearly not accurate.
PCR tests are pretty accurate, as are LFTs.
The problems are a) that the new Omicron variant is much more virulent compared to previous strains. b) that a person can be carrying the virus for several days before testing positive, and c) the symptoms are not as easy to recognise as before, being similar to the common cold (but definitely not flu).
My personal experiences over the past ten days leads me to believe that if you are not testing then you could carry the Omicron variant without even knowing. But footballers ARE being tested, so obviously the virus is being picked up, and to fulfil medical recommendations they are having to self isolate, some with no ill effects whatsoever, others who will be poorly for a few days.
Vaccinations WILL reduce the risks of both contracting Covid and passing it on to others. So being vaccinated should be seen as a benefit. I would have thought that most professional sportsmen and sportswomen would have taken up the vaccines, but they are of the age where scaremongering about the possible side effects may put them off.
What I have noticed are some of the statements put out by clubs which go along the lines of … “due to positive Covid tests and injuries”.
Are some sides using it as a convenient stalling mechanism to carry themselves through into the transfer window?
There may come a time when any ambitious players are stopped from playing until they are fully vaccinated. Not just to protect themselves, but also those they come into contact with.
I found this from an article about another player, but it looks like confirmation that the loan of Burns is imminent.
“McBride’s U23s scoring partner Sam Burns is another who is set to leave the club on loan, the forward expected to join League Two strugglers Scunthorpe United.”
A diamond in the rough perhaps?
Antivaxxers indeed. The gift that keeps on giving…..
