The IRONS National League Adventure

Post by Drunk Monkey » March 11, 2022, 7:06 am

I have received many requests to keep the thousands of Thai based Scunthorpe United fans up to date during the latter part of the League 2 campaign and next seasond foree into the National League ...... I think im pretty safe to start this thread bearing in mind my beloved SUFC current plight ... points adrift and nary a win or a goal in weeks its fair to say ..we are doomed.

I look forward to members comments and cash donations from anyone wishing to assist in a local consortium buying the club,, the total is now up to nearly 10 quid.. 7 pounds 93 p to be exact.

Keep the faith

One wonders if their uniforms next season will have rips and tears as befitting a club that has slipped so far. Maybe they can borrow hand-me-downs from Liverpool and return to the glory years of wearing red and white. 'Up the Iron' for they have nowhere else to go.

I'm sorry to read of Scunthorpe's problems.
It was many years ago when I first supported Palace and that was the old Fourth Division. So I do understand.

Good for you. As you know, I'm very much with those who 'support your local team', rather than the sheep who pick a big team, which usually guarantees success and more winning than defeats. All the more fun, when they do slip up. More passion, more love, more connection with your local team and less expectation but more enjoyment if and when some success does come.

It is possible to support someone Other than your local team, who still win b*gger all and have the same enjoyment if and when you win the occasional game .......... making a 600 mile round trip for a "home" game already knowing you are gonna lose to the likes of Luton a'int a lot of fun believe me

I've always presumed you were born in or around Newcastle, perhaps wrongly? Newcastle is a one-team city, without the complication of other competition. If you aren't Newcastle-born and chose to support the Geordies in preference to the obvious 'big boys', then you have my admiration - and sympathy :lol: Only kidding. At least, the team has turned things aroung this season, when it was looking grim. Perhaps the biggest under-achievers/disappointers?

I was born and raised in West Hamland ........ couldn't possibly support them when the opened a "club shop" in Romford town centre, knowing perfectly well that the town had its own non league football team . My cousin married a geordie in 1959 and he sent me the prog and local paper every week. As soon as I was old enough he took me to games in London (I went to non league games at the time as well until non league team folded and I became a member of the toon army travelling the length and breadth of the country. Even changed jobs when I found out that Railway staff got free and reduced rate travel which meant I could afford to go to Newcastle 2 or 3 times a month

Well it is normally geography and/or family which decides allegiances, so a bit of a variation on that theme, Statto.

Yes correct Brian .. both livi g ose to the ground and family ties were my calling to be a Scunny fan .. i never saw the point if following a bigger club that was miles away so have been loyal to only SUFC since i was a mere stain on the inderpants of life. and will remain so where ever they play tbrough good times n bad ..sadly at the moment extremely bad.

Jeepers, this thread has had a flying start. It will need a bit of controversy to keep up this pace. 8)

Perhaps DM you can share with us the teams Scunny supporters dislike the most?

If this was my list, and it isn't, I would replace the Hull City Tigers with the Evertons.

Also on the bright side, in years past it would have been a relegation from Division 4. Relegation from League 2 sounds better.
