No manager in their right mind would take that job, surely. They're very much in the mud, sliding towards the NLN.


If you're an ambitious sort currently in a league lower than Scunny, I reckon it's a very tempting job to go for.  Everyone knows its a sinking ship, so if it goes down and you can at least get a few results/team playing with pride and effort then your reputation is safe because everyone expected it to happen.  If you keep them up your stock rises, and if you get a mid table finish or higher (by some miracle) you're the next Mourinho.

Anyone who's currently at that level and/or has a good rep and track record already would rightfully avoid it like the plague though

Scunthorpe were always going to struggle in the National League. When was the last time someone finishing 24th in League 2 did well in their first season down there?


Wasn't 'just'  24th though was it?  They were as good as gone at Christmas

Thought today’s benchmark was a 9-0 spanking? Ah well….


That's coming...

Wonder if Lee Turnbull was the one who gave him the news - that would be quite amusing, given Hill's comments yesterday
