Think it's important to mention that Lincoln also went back for seconds...

How can there be a bigger game for either than 1st v 3rd between two 150 yr old clubs 13 miles apart, at this stage of the season? Although I was going on about the Grimsby v Hull rivalry from the 1950s on the other thread, even with us 2 leagues apart we are clearly more in Scunthorpe's...

So that compared to GY v Colchester on quality then - close run thing eh...

We have them both at home in the next month - ouch, how many did you win at home last season?

We have that player, Curtis Thompson, he's excellent, but injury prone and can only last about 70 mins. That's why he's playing for us...

Loads of empty seats with reserved on them in the Main Stand opposite us. Good results away just not cutting it anymore - - that's 7 straight defeats at home including the cup. Driving cold rain, early ko and on live on tv - I still did the 180 mile round trip but the home fan number was about...

If I could just see a home win, I wouldn't care if he came onto Radio Humberside singing "Scunthorpe United they are the greatest"...

When we start saying we are missing Pyke up front we know we are done for. TBF I think it would have been Green's kind and of game today, surging runs into the driving rain through the slime and sliding mud tackles; if he'd been on pitch I think I might have written a poem...

Barrington wasted a lot of final third possession. Think I prefer him in a more central role behind Rose like he played at Salford. Of course, if we'd had Vernam fit we'd have won at a canter...now we've Thompson and Davies fit we need to change our injured player excuses. To be fair Thompson...

On the basis that clubs with new grounds have increased their crowds back to the level of the early 60s as a benchmark - then about 14k with 12k home 2k away. We could still get more than that for a really big one off cup / play-off game but that feels about right.

Unfortunately we don't have the deputy prime minister as a local MP to direct £40 million of tax payer funds into the project, or a viable rugby league club to justify that as for a community stadium.

From early 70s to 2000 you couldn't say that. From the crowds they had in the 50s they always had the potential, but the new ground was the game changer. If they'd had to convert Boothferry to all seater, they be in the same sorry position as us with the ground. Low capacity, big building regs...

Surely it's us and Boston instead of a regional semi-pro level club now... Lincoln pretend they don't care about us but then they had the banner embarrassment a few years back that disproved that. And it is the world's first Town v City derby with both founder members of 2nd division and there...

The are certainly more posts about a Vale v Crewe game than I've ever seen. If the current form book carries on for the rest of the season will be like Stockport and Wrexham in the NL 3 years back...? Crewelad87 will have to do a lot posting mind...and probably hire the plane and fly it over...

“quite poor”…!? Someone did an analysis on the Fishy - it appears that we’ve been feckin shite at home for about the last 20 years. Also we don’t know whether the atmosphere at home games is shite because of that or whether we are shite at home because the atmosphere is shite. I blame...

A nice moment yes, but to make up for the misery of once having Ian Holloway as manager, that needs something more, like, say, scoring on 119 to win a 9 goal knock out game…

Clearly wrong - we’ve now got Kieran Green under contract until 2027. That’s put us top of the market value table so we are under performing…

Sky don’t care. Putting the local games in the Thursday night slot like Notts v Grimsby early season still means there is a reasonable crowd. We took 1,500 and the home support wasn’t completely decimated so it was still a reasonable atmosphere even though the attendance was probably 4k down...

That’s seems a bit harsh on J McA - with car crashes going on behind him…
