    At least Hilton didn’t fleece us…

    Bru’s hounding of him made him do it. If only we shut up and didn’t ask questions so he could create more astonishing debt.

    Mr free speech is now going after anyone who spreads lies (as defined by him, with his own vested interests) about Tesla.

    If I remember correctly, you need to set up an account with Gravatar with the email address you have for this account (https://gravatar.com/), upload an image there and it should generate an avatar on this site.

    It’s always a good idea to remind ourselves to behave better than those we deride for bad behaviour. There are rightful complaints about how Jerry and co speak of Bru. They will say they’re just responding in kind to Bru behaviour if it’s mirrored.

    Not sure how any Scunthonian can still back Trump with his industry killing tariffs.

    Same with the US administration’s blatant disregard and antipathy for the UK and Europe. They will lump it as opposition to ‘globalism’, and while there are many problems there that have not been addressed, the alternative is worse. As seen with the cosying to the Russians. I fail to see how Russia, with its internal problems with high alcoholism rates, high domestic abuse rates, lack of freedom, silencing of critics, quashing of free speech and poor economics is some preference against the more liberal west. That’s before we get to Russia’s heinous war crimes in Syria, Chechnya and Ukraine. With threats to the other former Soviet states.

    A true patriot would be defending our own interests against clear Russian imperialism and disruption to our own country and values. Not quivering, excusing and sometimes applauding Russia’s hostility to our own country. The MAGA right are sounding more and more like the far left with their excuse making for anti-western regimes and self-flagellating. Not much difference between this US administration and the Corbyns, Galloways and Diane Abbotts of this world when it comes to foreign policy views outside of Israel.

    That’s maybe the less charitable opinion. I can see why, but I am trying to see the best.

    That said just can’t get my head round why he wanted to star in the fc 100 video.

    On reflection, I suspect and hope he was naive and thought it was something else entirely when he agreed to be in the video.

    Kidderminster will win the league. Sorry folks.

    Have you got a time machine? We don’t know. Their run in has some banana skins. I wouldn’t rule Brackley out yet. Hard to see where they’ll slip up.

    Why would I need a time machine? It was a prediction, but I mentioned last night in the Brackley v Kidderminster thread that I just felt they looked ominous, they’ve won two massive games in the last 8 days which realistically they shouldn’t have done, they’ve got huge momentum and it feels like everything is falling their way, their run-in isn’t tougher than ours in my view either and only one slip-up from Iron opens the door for them to step through.

    You were telling us they will win, so I thought I’d make a tongue in cheek comment on it. Of course they can win, so can we, so can Brackley. Who have an easier stretch than either side. I wouldn’t be surprised to see Brackley drop the least points in the last 6 games.

    I can’t remember all, but apart from us, York, Hartlepool, Kidderminster, Torquay and Hampton & Richmond were definitely on there. I think Boston was too.

    I don’t think vendettas against Bru forum and podcast will go away soon. Which is a huge shame when key reps from all three fans groups including Bru, Trust and Iron Hour are able to present a united front to the Board like they did this week.

    They bemoan the Bru for hostility, but these people seem the most hostile and bitter. They love to whip up hate against anyone who questions their narrative, like with Hilton and now seemingly this, but any attempt to question something to do with the club is ‘stirring up hornets’ nests’.

    Stamp did help a lot in joining dots with what went on, but I think it would have come out before completion anyway given FC100,000 did their own leak and announcement, which would have reached Scunny fans, I think. It was solvable as to what club was in their own promo, which wasn’t put together on the back of Stamp. Not taking anything away from Stamp there.

    What stupid rumours? Is he aware that there was truth in this and that FC100,000’s announcement made it clear that they were presenting it as a deal to be heavily involved with the club? It was them who made the announcement, launched their GCSE project of a website and leaked to The Athletic, with evidence that it was Scunthorpe for the eagle eyed. Dan Stamp and a few others enabled this to be confirmed with their own talk and digging. None of it came from this forum and those involved with this site (e.g. Matt B and E) only commented after the talk from others.

    We’re not the only ones involved in unbelievable idiocy. I don’t think Trump is some 5D chess playing mastermind of strategy after all.

    He certainly went in a blaze of glory then. If the club had let him have some burger vans outside on community day, we’d all still be non the wiser ….

    I think FC100,000’s launch effort and their own leak to The Athletic would have caught on, regardless of Danny’s whispering in the end. People quickly cottoned on to the fact that Scunthorpe train station was visible through their promos and there would have been enough to have been alerted at some point before Thursday, I reckon.

    The nature of social media. Yesterday riled people and their emotions were taken out on others. There will be some who will now give Gareth stick over this, but it will blow over for some. Gareth hasn’t helped himself by engaging in it secretly without the others in his podcast knowing. They have taken some flak too even though they did nothing, while Becky and Barra were quite vocally against it.

    The list is interesting. Some are obvious why they have interest, in that they are former league clubs, like us, who have fallen on harder times (Hartlepool, York, Torquay), but why were Hampton & Richmond on there? Seems a bit off field for it to be some random pick of clubs to include them if it was done to make it seem more legit.

    who’s this Gareth muppet?

    The vlogger who also laid out the red carpet for dodgy Dave in their softball interview 2 years ago.

    Imagine being a podcast that made a song and dance about how Bru are Swann lovers only to be more accommodating to a spiv and then have the lead guy jump for a gimmick that would rip the soul out of the club.

    The pitch was naivety. This was premediated stupidity that anyone with a brain could see through. Yet it was entertained for months and got to a stage where a deal was in place. Amazing.

    Probably thought the fanbase would except anything they brought along there’s being very little throwback on what they’ve introduced up to now.

    Easy to see why when so many swallowed Hilton’s guff.

    Poor Ian Sharp. He thought he could run the club so much better on his own whim, but all that planning and sly hints leads to it going belly up in a day.

    Swann was many things, but he didn’t raid company’s money and put it in his own bank account like some spiv. There was some money at the club in Jan 23 so far as I am aware.

    He did put the Club’s stadium in his back pocket, though.

    I am not denying that or saying Swann was a good owner.
