The Hallucinating Goose Posted April 10, 2023 Share Posted April 10, 2023 (edited) Scunthorpe have been relegated to the National League North. Not too long ago I went to see Hull City v Scunthorpe in the Championship. What a fall that has been for them. Next year they will be playing a Lincolnshire derby against Boston United!

Sadly, the wheels seem to be coming off our promotion bid. After reaching second place our recent games have finished 0-0, 0-0. 0-1, 0-1, 2-0 & 0-0! Our final three home games are massive and against clubs 2nd, 3rd and 7th, with away at 9th and 11th. #COYB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry, the wheels are coming off Stevenage's promotion bid even faster so only Stockport and Bradford to worry about now. We do have a game in hand though and home games against teams with not too much to play for so I'm still hopeful but playoffs look more realistic now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HawkMan Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 Man Utd 2 up with 10 to go, then Maguire comes on, scores an own goal and it ends up 2-2, got to feel sorry for him. Not his fault for first goal, also own goal, but he's in the negative headlines. Final nail in coffin for his OT career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least most of the away games will be closer. But unless they are willing to splash the cash, getting back into the National League won’t be as easy as some of their fans expect.

It will certainly be interesting when they visit Peterborough and instead of heading to London Road to play in front of 15,000 fans, as they were doing just a few years ago, they will be heading to Lincoln Road to play in front of about 1,000 fans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gingerjon Posted April 23, 2023 Share Posted April 23, 2023 Thirty-one years we've been in the top tier. The lord alone knows how. We've needed shenanigans, licence failures in the division below and, now, twice we've needed to win on the last day of the season. And bear in mind we got to that point because our goalkeeper scored a goal a couple of weeks ago. Now ... look at the time elapsed. Just look at it. So now the club have put out the classic Titanic version that all great plays require. You can also find the Welsh commentary which is completely intelligible even if you don't understand a word.

I watched the game and they were the better team although Juventus had a couple of goals disallowed prior to Raspadori’s late winner. The scudetto is inevitable now as the chasing pack have been unable to make any headway on Napoli’s late title splutter and there’s a real dogfight for the CL places in Italy now Juve have had their points reinstated that had been docked for financial irregularities previously.
