perhaps I am being naive, but in my days unless you were on crutches, you turned out for your team, mind you our gym master WAS a sadist!

Meanwhile back in the real world, I hope the lads don't let us down again today, it's a must win, after only four matches! So come on monsieur Manset (anyone know how to pronounce his last name incidentally?) swing that third leg my son! :) :)


Pronounced Mon-say after watching a French interview with him in.


Cheers my friend your a hero, French never was taught at our school, just German, and how to pass interviews for a job in a Bolt & Nut factory! :lol:

Right now, we are in the relegation zone.

Although Bradshaw just had a header well saved.

Baxendale for Grimes (40 mins)... surely enforced. One change left. I don't think we had as many injuries in the entirety of last season than we've suffered since August 1st.

Twice as many fouls by "them" and two of our players injured and off...

We ain't dominating possession but have had almost as many shots. New dawn?

I wonder if this might finish 0-0? that would make a refreshing change would it not!
Couldn't make it after all today, but looks like I've missed a goal fest again!

Not good. I think the players have a lot to answer for here. Hopefully they can turn this around.

If you really reckon they can turn this around, Sky will give you 40/1 at the moment :mrgreen:

'It was a tough game' said Deano 'I thought we defended very well and I think the referee got the free kick decision wrong for their second goal. After looking at the video, I believe there were at least 20 fouls in the build up to their first but we still should have done better. We will click eventually up front and I thought Manset had a good debut despite lacking a bit of fitness. When our injured players return, the team I will put out will no doubt be the strongest one I have at my disposal since I started here. I am proud of my players and I want to reiterate that I still don't plan to bring in any more signings until we sign some rubbish 7ft beanpole to put upfront in January on loan'

Bradshaw gives us hope 2-1!

Hope for a third Scunthorpe goal that is.
