Quoted from Plankton
I may no longer live in Lincolnshire but my thoughts are below.

I want us to get back up to the football league and I also want Scunthorpe to be there too. I take no delight in seeing a club experiencing difficulties at the hands of poor business management. Lincolnshire is the second largest county in England and the county is vastly underrepresented in footballing terms compared to its size. Another team in our county going down is a massive shame to all of us and is going to be a detriment going forward. We need local and quality teams  to draw talent to pursue our own goals.

No sympathy from me, their support wasn't moaning when Swann was throwing £8K a week as their better players whilst trying to get into the Championship.

If they went down it would make me smile, if we took their place I'd laugh.

Zero sympathy here. Swann tried to be Billybigballs and has found it’s not just as easy as chucking your money around. He’s also sacked some pretty decent managers in his time too. 😂😂

I have no idea why 24 people on this forum would red cross this, but I believe that Plankton is more right than you. Ribbing is ribbing, insults, ok, but wanting a town 35 miles down the road to lose their club? That's totally on you and proves you have a very limited  set of horizons.

I don't think most posters are saying they want them to fold, just drop down to non league for a bit.

'Cause it'd be funny.

When we went out the league before they posted bile like I hope your club dies blah blah blah more than what you’d expect from a rival . I’d like to say I’ve matured but f*** em - I want them relegated year on year.

Would Scunny ever make it back into the League if (when?) they drop out? Not sure they would. I could see them as a solid enough National League club, I suppose. They didn't get in the League until the 1950s, I think? That was back when it was a prosperous town with all the steelworks, but a lot has changed since then.

They need to get their ground back and sort their finances out. The National League are a lot less lenient than the EFL when it comes to teams entering administration.

Unless Swann writes their debt off, you can't see it having a positive ending.

Sorry but I have no sympathy for Scunny, they wollowed in our demise and took great pleasure in it, right now they are spiralling out of control with an egotistical prat at the helm
I don't want to see them out of business and no longer exist but I'd gladly put 2 fingers up to all their fans should they go down.
