True. I can understand your concern - 4-0 and 6-0 comes to mind recently. Plus I was at your place when we relegated you in 2017. Maybe it is your turn?
I was at that cup match and it was 3-1 Swindon as I remember. Keegan played right wing, but didn't get much into the game as it was played on a quagmire of a field. Horrendous. We were most disappointed with the draw out of the hat. To get Swindon A in the 5th Round was a let down for a...
Hedonist Puncture here, an overseas foreigner who supports Scunny.
I see my name mentioned earlier in this thread, so thought I would post, if only to swell Scunny supporter numbers to two (with Bottega Don).
Not particularly looking forward to the new season, more of a leftover from the last...
In my lifetime, which is the same as my time supporting Scunny, although I didn't realise it until I started watching at 6 years old:
Biggest wins were away at Torquay and home to Luton, both 8-1 (League) and home to Boston Utd 9-0 (FA Cup).
I was away overseas for the Torquay game, but watched...
They were just high spirited lads showing goodwill towards our players and fans as they usually do. Even the coppers could see that and consequently did nothing. I think they were just celebrating the fact that we both have swear words in our names - Scunthorpe and Fucking Millwall.
Rotherham, to make a triumphant return for all three relegated clubs from last season's Championship.
Mind you, I predicted Plymouth and Portsmouth to make the final two playoff places not so long ago :cool1:
Talking of fans around the world, I was in Kaohsiung some years back and a Grimsby v Scunthorpe FA Cup tie was to be shown on Sky. I contacted the hotel manager to ask if I could watch a UK televised match in the lounge. As a guest, he said just go ahead and turn it on, no problem. As the...
Millen sent them out to kick shit out of us for the second half. It worked to the extent that we had a few who will be with the physio on Monday morning. Hopefully, all will be fit for the Plymouth game on Tuesday.
Hope Millen gets the manager's job and takes them down to the non-league next...
I reckon too that Pompey and Plymouth will make it. We've been batting above our average all season and at this crucial point, I think we will miss out. I'll take us to finish 7th, Pompey 6th and Rotherham may well be under pressure to hold off Plymouth for 4th.
I suspect that there will be...
We are short in the goal-scoring department and it has been a problem for much of the season. We are not scoring enough for a play-off position and I agree that we need to score more. If we had done so while dominating the first half, I doubt that you would have got back into the game to secure...
Biggest aggro player I ever saw play for PNE was Alex "Black Prince of Deepdale" Dawson. A gifted ex Man Utd centre forward with an exceptional eye for goal and the other one for mixing it with opposing defending and goalkeepers. A high quality striker with an edge.
I remember one game played...
Your last point is well taken. Looking at Southey's great work on:

Scunny is high up the league in percentage of away to home attendances. Even more is that we are a bit isolated with not too many clubs around us, except...
