    Agreed; we must avoid being dragged down to kick & rush, hoofball.
    We need to dominate teams and have them chasing shadows for the full 90 minutes.
    Recently, we only seem to play well for half a game?

    We are playing poorly and aren’t dominating games.

    North Lincs Council issued 77,236 Council tax bills last year.

    I’ve never had the pleasure (if you’d call it that) of using the services of the fire brigade.
    Another hardly used facility these days; libraries are there for people to use should they so wish. You can even use the recreational parks or visit a museum too etc.

    How about adding £40 per council tax bill to help finance a community asset? That would generate £3,089,440 per year.

    Just like the library, it’s (SUFC) there if you want to use it.

    Forty quid is nowt – half a tank of petrol… who’d miss that over a year?

    77p per week to keep the club alive.
    A grab bag of crisps currently retail for 100p in Tesco.

    Brown bin day… I don’t generate any garden waste. Can you divert my brown bin fee to SUFC please?

    For me, the team doesn’t work hard enough.
    Jog, jog, jog.
    No one’s prepared to put their body in the line of fire and take one for the team (except possibly Ogle).
    We’re too slow to press and put people under pressure.
    The forwards don’t make enough runs and false runs.
    The midfield ain’t dynamic enough. They don’t break forward enough nor shield the defenders well enough.
    A defeat to Tamworth and we’re in the sweepstake for that play off place.
    How would you change it?
    Does Jimbob have a plan?

    They’ve nipped to the top and have us tucked under their hoof.
    Wool they end up as Champions?

    Forget an epiphany.
    Today turned in to a peripeteial dénouement.
    We must achieve promotion this season!
    At the moment, the supporters are ‘investing’ in the ‘novelty value’ of this league.
    I believe attendances would dramatically slide next season if we are anchored in the NLN.
    I’m starting to get a little edgy.

    Synched Radio Lincolnshire to TV.

    Did they say attendance was/is 4,672 ?

    I missed how many were/are Boston fans.

    1-2 Gardener again.

    Then, another mistake and it’s 1-3

    It’s been a pretty even game and the score doesn’t reflect that.

    Bishops just had a great chance that was more difficult to miss than score – and they did.
    1-1

    It’s a watchable game.

    Commentator is half decent.
    Stortford should be 1-0 up already. A bad decision from their forward.

    last Saturday I watched our game at Farsley, Brackley v Banbury and York v Gateshead on Monday all on one pass, because it was for the whole weekend, so like today if there is a game that kicks off at 1pm in Premier, North or South you can watch 2 games

    It’s Friday the first of December 2023 and it may have just being announced that Band Aid are to reform for Christmas 2023.

    Not to feed the world this time – but to feed the ex players & staff still owed wages and staff who were made redundant in the summer but whom are still awaiting their redundancy payments.

    Guinevere and her Knights of the Round Table may have made Glanford Park their Camelot – but, let’s not condemn former loyal and long serving ex employees to Bleak House this Christmas.

    The Jarndyce family suffered whilst awaiting their inheritance – The ESUFCE (Ex Scunthorpe United Football Club Employees) are the 21st century Jarndyce family… awaiting wages & redundancy payments.

    A FOODBANK CHRISTMAS could have been a Dickens fiction.

    In times gone by, they (ESUFCE) might have been down the workhouse conversing with Mr Bumble.

    Fall behind with your mortgage these days and you don’t even have the safety net of ‘Bumbledon’ and the opportunity to ask Mr Bumble for ‘more’.

    At best, you might be lucky and end up in tent city, at second worst, you might end up under the arches.
    At the very worst, you might end up… starts and ends with D.

    The biggest cause of death in men aged under 50 in the UK is suicide.
    The days that most suicides take place on are: Sundays & Mondays.

    Christmas Eve this year is on… SUNDAY

    Christmas Day this year is on… MONDAY!

    Back during the record breaking hot days of summer, did WHAM give any thought to his hotheaded decision to terminate people’s employment and to not pay them redundancy monies owed them?

    Did he give any thought to the fact that they may have mortgages, loans, credit cards, store cards, overdrafts, child care costs, nursing home costs, that there is the energy crisis, high ongoing inflation, stagnant wages and the cost of living (or existing) crisis.

    Did he not think that some of these ex employees might still be out of a job a few short months later?

    Did he not think that this winter could be one of the coldest winters for decades – and that people on benefits (or the streets) suffer ill health & death by not being warm?

    Christmas is a-coming and we start to light the Christmas candles – the four candles representing the Christian concepts of hope, peace, joy and love.

    Are you a good Christian?
    Are you a good man/woman?

    Will the ESUFCE have any hope this Christmas?
    Will the ESUFCE have peace this Christmas?
    Will the ESUFCE find joy this Christmas?
    Will the ESUFCE be loved and give love this Christmas?

    Hopefully, we won’t be lighting a fifth candle in remembrance of one of our former ESUFCE brothers/sisters!

    Guinevere and her Knights of Camelot should do their Christian duty, their moral duty and fulfil their legal obligations and honour the ESUFCE.

    Is Kieran Maguire Inspector Bucket?

    It may have being of WHAMs doing – but our Queen Guinevere must resolve this.

    A Court of Chancery no more.

    Blessing to anyone and everyone awaiting any monies.
    Stay strong.

    Epiphany today – marking the end of the Christmas season.
    Let’s hope that all our friends are well.
    UTI.

    JD has confirmed the club have appealed the red card for Danny Whitehall jointly with Farsley stating the cards were for violent conduct .. waiting to see if Whitehall will be allowed to play today.

    Too many Hoyo de Monterreys to be smoked and Remy Martin VSOP Cognacs to be quaffed before a decision can be even considered.
