Quoted from RoboCod
It just muddies the water further. It's fine saying things like "Those comments, Mr Parker made, had the potential to lead to volatility and public disorder, when a large gathering of fans were waiting to lynch the remaining directors after being branded 'not forward thinking'"
but what is the evidence to show that we're NOT stuck with a backward thinking bunch of stooges who have claimed a board place with a tiny cash input? Public disorder? Lynching? I seem to remember a rather low key turnout in the car park.

I just hope this personal battle is not going to drag on and on.


Prepare to be disappointed...

If he wanted to carry on funding the club all he would have to do is purchase more shares in order to regain a controlling interest... The point is he doesn't want to... That's how I see it anyway....


Apparently not according to Fenty.

He says in the statement that "equating" his shares doesn't solve the problem.

Someone ought to knock their heads together,childish pair of fookers.

I can't see how it doesn't solve the problem though...??? If he buys enough shares he will have majority shareholding... Agree with you though, none of them are coming out of this looking good, although I would still prefer MP over JF any day of the week...

Neither of these two are coming out of this spat with any credit. Each statement and counter statement is damaging the club and putting off anyone daft enough to consider working with either of these two major shareholders.

A real chasm between MP and JF is evident. For Godsake, have some decorum, shut your mouths, leave that keyboard alone, get together and work things out for the good of this great football club. I haven't had any dealings with Mike Parker, I have always found John Fenty approachable but I am disgusted he has published extracts of Mike Parker's e-mail on the clubs official site - we are an utter laughing stock, a joke and I am getting angrier by the minute.

This mammary for tat, "he said, she said" mentality is not only confusing but also futile. Can the pair of them not at least start to clarify the various potential scenarios for resolution in the best interests of the club as a whole? It would be a much healthier starting point which might clarify the type of involvement potential new, previous or existing members of the board might look at and possibly give the fans some crumbs of certainty, if not security, at such a troubling time

i'd love to know why it doesn't solve the problem - buying 350k of shares puts him exactly back where he was - majority shareholder and in charge of the club. unless of course that buying shares does not suit his present agenda................

ps anyone else get the impression that parker will be mightily pleased by the reaction he has provoked - a long,rambling, disingenuous, misspelt attempt at rewriting history?

result: fenty looks like a little boy flailing around in all directions, with fans thinking increasingly negative things about him, his motives and his reaction to events

Fair point, I think! But wouldn't Parker have to agree to sell them? (sorry, I don't understand it all).
