    I am worried that this game will end up being a no score draw, this result will suit Tamworth, and it will go a long way to them ending as automatic winners of the league.

    PREDICTION – SCUNTHORPE 0-0 TAMWORTH

    ATTENDANCE – 5,803.

    As many as that?
    How many are they bringing?

    When two irresistible forces meet 2 immovable objects?

    Zìxīang Máodùn

    When the two best strike forces meet the best and third best defences in the league.

    If there is a positive outcome in favour of one team it will be the result of a mistake.

    They are five clean sheets on the bounce.

    Iron 0-1 Lambs

    Sorry guys. I hope I’m wrong!
    UTI.

    Bookies see the home form of Scunny as giving us the slight edge.

    Iron: 69/50
    Draw: 120/50
    Lambs: 75/50

    If Whitehall ain’t too rusty, he may Nick a goal to make it 1-1

    Head: 0-1
    Heart: 1-0
    Gut: 0-0 or 1-1

    Fingers crossed.

    Let’s be honest the squad is a great squad of players for this level but we lack any real depth.

    So… it’s not a great squad.

    Season Review 2023-24 DVD

    All the goals scored and conceded by the Iron from every game this season.
    A minutes footage (build up & celebration) per goal and it’ll probably be about 2 hours long.
    £10 per DVD
    £10 x 1,000 = £10k

    I watched the first half of Tamworth v Boston and it was poor.
    I didn’t bother with the second half – I watched a movie.

    Alfreton 3-2 winners at Southport today.

    The shortest score-cast prices for Saturday’s game:

    1-1… 5/1
    0-1… 7/1
    1-2… 15/2

    Clean sheet for us stops them from scoring for the 10th game on the bounce.
    Good enough.
    Well done boys.

    I’ve being out all day.
    Literally got in a few minutes ago and turned the TV on… I managed to get the last two minutes lol.
    Great result for football.
    We need more results like this!
    I’ll watch it later on iplayer.
    Bravo! Well done Maidstone!
    Just seen the goals.
    Two good strikes.
    First one was a great goal.

    Living The Dream!

    Every home game, one Fan gets to experience match day up close and personal as if he’s a player.

    Report at the same time as the players.
    Pre-match meal.
    Change in to SUFC kit in the dressing room with the players.
    Take part in or be around the warm up (where applicable… not including technical drills)
    Pre-game managers talk / instructions.
    Run / walk out with players.
    Seat on the bench for the game.
    Dressing room for half time managers debrief and instructions.
    Back out with players – seat on bench.
    Managers post-match debrief in changing room.
    Change back in to civvies.
    Post match meal in restaurant.

    Cost: £1,000

    Season income = £23,000 plus Cup games.

    Some might say that this is too ‘intrusive’ and would be a hindrance on match days.
    Ranting & raving and ‘information’ can be heard being transmitted from the dug outs in every game – what we never see or hear is the private discussions in the changing room.

    A pre-event meeting between the Fan and the Club Secretary could be used to discuss the day and a code of conduct and other guidelines to be reviewed and agreed to.

    What an experience!
    The closest you’ll ever get to ‘living the dream’

    You want me to pay a grand to spend all that time with Dean??

    Pay a grand to ensure he stops in pboro today and doesn’t come back…

    Short trip for him today.

    Shame it’s not run by the club though.

    Popular with us older guys.
    But, because it’s walking, it could be an open age tournament.

    Have the Iron got a walking football team? Apparently there is a lot of money to be made by letting a load of old gits dodder all over the pitch, and it can get competitive.

    Just a thought. UTBI

    It was one of my other thoughts.

    Walking 7 a side Tournament
    16 teams
    4 leagues of 4 teams
    Top team from each league go through to semi-final
    10 members per team
    £10 entry per player
    £10 x 10 x 16 = £1,600
    Run it monthly sept to June

    Winners name goes on the trophy which they bring to defend at the next tournament.

    10 x £1,600 = £16k

    Players Payback

    Some might say that it’s all expense for the Fans and ask “what contribution (other than playing) have the players made to help out the Club?”

    It’s a nice job, good conditions, good pay, good work/home balance… you often hear it said “I’d play for nothing”

    What a great idea!

    How about the players forfeit their wages Easter week.
    It wouldn’t get more symbolic than that!
    Jesus resurrected.
    SUFC resurrected.

    24 x £1,000 = £24k

    24 (I’ve no idea of the actual size of the squad) x £1,000 (no idea of the average wage either).

    Breathe LIFE in to the Club and keep yourself in a job you LOVE next season.
    LIVE the dream!

    Live, Love, Life.
    Live, Love, SUFC
