He really is one of the biggest parasites in football and shows how many inept chairmen there are!
The good news is that Hilton has been bought out and Scunthorpe United is now owned by a local business owner who is NOT a property developer. There's still the problem of Glanford Park being still owned by the previous crooked property developer owner, but the club itself may now be safe even if they won't have their own stadium for a while. It's proving very difficult to get Iron fans to get active in any form of fan involvement beyond holding fundraising events. My view is that you have to fight like hell to prevent ANY property developer owning the club you support. I'm prepared to accept that it is possible that some property developers may be honest, but I categorise it somewhere alongside the ideas that aliens have visited Earth and that Elvis Presley is still alive and working as a short order cook.Is this guy any worse than Glen Tamplin and countless other shysters who've spent money that wasn't really theirs, before leaving a trail of destruction in their wake? (Ron Martin at Southend for starters.) I always struggle to pick the bones out of stories like this, but Tamplin denied us the Isthmian League championship with his gratuitous spending on players wages, whilst liquidating a series of companies owing £millions to creditors who will never see that money.
Going off FWP, it looks like two.Can't seem to find any record of how many red cards they've had this season. Wonder if it's more or less the same as when Paul Barnes was in charge at the Hamlet
That's what came out originally, which interestingly hasn't been refuted by Havant - but there was a subsequent letter that pertained to be from Steve King about the fines list being put online, and which the club got shirty about.
They lost again today, 3-2 at home to Wingate & Finchley. They only conceded 4 goals in their first 8 games and were unbeaten, but now they've leaked 19 in the last 7.Some interesting goings on at Hastings - Quade Taylor left this week after less than a month with them and today they've announced Femi Akinwande is leaving, their top scorer who's started every game this season.
After a good start where they won five and drew three, they've lost five of their last six games.
Oh I can't wait for his missus to get lit again!Paul Barnes been sacked by Hastings!
Meanwhile at Dorking...
Can't see any evidence of it so far, maybe he asked her to restrain herself this time?Oh I can't wait for his missus to get lit again!
The ref in the Lewisham vs Lordswood game has a stinker by the sounds of it.
“A number of key players left the squad last week after Barnes said anyone who was not fully on board with the club could go if they felt it was right.” He told players to go so they went. Probably didn’t go down to well in the boardroom? Hastings United part company with boss Barnes just a few months into his reign

Was this your referee?Pretty similar experience the previous week when I managed to get booked for “sarcasm” after the final whistle when telling the referee “Thanks for turning up”. These men are so sensitive!
