I will not be a member while the Trust supports John Fenty.


Come on I'm as drunk off as you if the Trust is going to back Fenty, but that's precisely why we need you to join.

Time for radicalism not sensible policies me thinks.

We are not 'backing Fenty' as you put it. We are backing the club, and at this stage in time GTFC is better off with him on the board than not on the board.

Why should he have reservations?

Surely the Trust should ask difficult questions of him in line with the memberships wishes? If Fenty or the club are uncomfortable with that, then tough!

I diasagree Wrawbs, the sooner we turn over a new leaf the better. If it's a case of "we need his money", I'd say the strings it comes with are likely to strangle us. I'd say the damage his control has caused the club has outweighed the money he has put in (especially considering so much has been in loans).

I haven't seen any evidence of the members being consulted on this, only if we want to ask questions or raise concerns.

I worry for the Trust at the moment. The backlash against Clegg and the Lib Dems springs to mind. Especially as it'll be seen as supporting John Fenty again (after the majority shareholding business a few years ago).

I haven't attended the trusts but I would certainly back JF to the hilt.  People have their own reasons for not liking or wanting JF back if someone else came in made an offer and it was accepted then a new page is turned over in GTFC history.  However right now there is noone else MP came and just left us in the crap IMO a complete knob.

It is a near completely new board of the Trust, It is going through a transitional phase ready for a relaunch. The Trust needs time to gain credibility amongst the fans and the community in order to successfully make a difference these things take time, If JF left the board and took his money with him then what? With no money we go bust, simple as.

A new motto for the Trust SAME excrement DIFFERENT DAY because with Parker giving shares away like hes done TBH hes just complicated our fractured boardroom and made it more complexed to sort this problem out.It doesnt matter whether you have an AGM EGM this problem will always be there and will just drag the club further down the footballing ladder than it is now.
The worry about all this is whether the Club will benefit from having three warring factions on the board all thinking they know what best for the Club when all three couldnt be more further from the truth on different matters if it slapped them in the face

• In addition, it was requested for anyone involved with GTST to step away from the
negativity, and refrain from getting involved in any nastiness and backbiting that
seems commonplace on messageboards.

AN EPITAPH FOR ALL GTST MEMBERS

Paranoia is a thought process believed to be heavily influenced by anxiety or fear, often to the point of irrationality and delusion.

I listened to the two gents from the trust's interview before the game and sadly it confirmed my worst fears, i will not be joining. I had always thought that the trust would allow Fenty to return but the tripe about not having a club without Fenty is just ridiculous. The Trust finally has some power and they are going to vote the worst chairman in living history back in without asking any question of what he plans to do with the club.

I know people are scared about the future of the club but to place the fans support in a man who has the club losing nearly a million a year is lunacy, he cannot sustain the club and the debt to him will only rise.



Whatever you say right or wrong you are entitled to your say but the one thing in the interview that stood out like a sore thumb was when he said we ( the trust) had to remember what Mr Fenty has done for the club in the last 7 years.
Is there anybody who has any idea what he was thinking because I certainly have my thoughts but I've been told to avoid stress so I'll keep them to myself.
