I went on Saturday to the Harrogate game with my young niece, whilst in the osmand end I pulled out a can of coke that I'd bought her from the spar shop on way to the ground, immediately two stewards pounced on me demanding I give them the can as it is an offensive weapon! I said how is it it's a coke can ffsake, oh,you can snap it in half and slash someone with it was the reply, wtf! I was with my niece for god sake. Point is (yes there is one) instead of this woke health and safety b.llshit and £5 sausage rolls they should focus more on the playing side as we are a laughing stock, even my Scunthorpe supporting work colleagues think we are a joke.
Scunthorpe are a grass roots club , take no notice of them

Are you seriously suggesting you've found a glitch in the time/space continuim - that if we allow cans of coke in the osmond then we may start winning?
Given what's happening on the pitch, I'd agree it's worth a try
You silly boy, you know very well what I'm say you little tinker. To sum up then, 1: how is a can of pop a deadly weapon? 2: when are we going to sign a big lad up front? 3: when will fans realise these two owners are all pointy brown shoes, smoke and mirrors and advacado salad eating lefties? 4: we need to ship out most of this squad. 5: the food and drink is shocking, the tea tastes like drain water.

Those stewards don’t know what they’re on about - but still, you can’t take a can in as, when full, it’s a pretty lethal weapon when thrown, especially onto the pitch. As for your Scunny mates, just because they’re currently doing well in regional football doesn’t make them experts. They’ve had seasons at the top of L2 on sub-4000 crowds, so they’re in no position to question our current form or position.

Just got back myself
Embarrasing 2nd half performance, could have been 10 but for bad finishing and outstanding goalkeeping.
Our defence is a joke, Rodgers on a 3 year deal is just insanity. He is dreadful. Clifton was excrement again, and somehow got 90 minutes.

Can was open and half drunk, as for my Scunthorpe mates, we'll be able to have a beer with them pre match next season way it's going for both clubs.

Was it diet or full sugar?

Quoted from 123614
You do realise that when the new owners bought the club they said the footballing side would be left 100% to the Manager/Head Coach?
That’s always been the case. Just another prop for when it may go wrong 😑

I have it on authority from a regular Crewe attender. that DA had them playing very entertaining and successful football. Then at the end of the season. they lost some of their key loanees and went into sharp decline. They could have gone down last season but had a revival at the end to escape trouble. I really hoped we would press on this season. People on here actually stated they thought PH had built a stronger squad. Someone else said we had good players but PH could not get them to play a tune. I think it will be very hard to strengthen this squad in January and DA will have to work with what he’s got. I hope he can improve things but when you see reports from eye-witnesses that some of the players switched off and downed tools today, then he’s got a real challenge on. 39 shots on out goal, that beats Liverpool’s 34 against MU! Well done to our goalkeeper. You saved us from one hell of a beating.

Back home. In terms of relegation fights, we are right in the thick of it, no matter what DA says. The body language of the players in the second half says it all. We are making our own bad luck with deflected goals with opposition players getting shots off that they shouldn’t be allowed to. We are totally reliant on Rose up front, he worked his socks off again and must be totally p!ssed off with the shambles behind him. An injury to him and we are well and truly fecked.
DA really needs to earn his corn in Jan.
