To summarise there are a few suggestions that are missing from the list, mainly:

1) Ched Evans signing.

2) Ernie Moss charity match - stewarding charges
Fake raffle.

3) 150th Anniversary 'non-event'.

4) Wrong kit.

5) Alleged insider betting re: Martin Allen.

6) George Margreitter MK Dons balls up. "We're a professional football club. We don't make mistakes".

7) Abusive Twitter DM's sent by a Scunthorpe based hacker.

8) The kitman job.

9) Piegate.

10) Liam Graham.

11) Chinese bid.

12) Consortium of convenience.

13) Chris Turner's interview following the FA hearing.

14) Ashley - hook line and sinker (fan interest).


For those who have made the suggestions can you help me out by including a month and year, please?

Can we add, agreeing to sign David Brooks on a "Gentleman's agreement " instead of a contractual one, as part of the Evans deal, thus leaving ourselves open to being shafted by the Blerds after he did well in an international youth tournament?
These go to eleven.

I'm not going to tell anyone how to behave. But why does anyone think DA cares what you or I think?

He thinks the fans are cretins. He has said publicly, without an ounce of shame or self reflection that the fans are to blame for the predicament we're in. After presiding over a series of disasters of his and his appointees making.

P***ING him off will just make him more obtuse and stubborn. The best hope we have is for him to leave. I know what I think will make him do so. Everyone will have to decide for theirselves.

I’m inclined to agree with this. We might have to wait for him to pass on.
A new hope.

Didn't a TV programme/crew turn up at the stadium also, as part of the CCJ's, 'Can't Pay, we'll take it away' or 'the Bailiff's are coming' or something similar?

There is that much to forget! Do I recall there was also an issue with Chris Herd's contract? Also what about Mark Mullins, the ex employee, did he get squeezed for comments made?

Can we get up to three pages of diatribe as I would hate for us to be outdone by our neighbours in Sheffield.
