Seems a long time since Fenty was doing his photo shoots with the fans at London on our many Wembley trips he is a massive fan why the feck should he want us to fail????

                                  Somebody give me a valid reason why he wants the club he as ploughed millions in to fail???


There IS a toxic element with some fans? in this club that leave people like Hurst all bitter and twisted and who love stirring the shitt up. I'm sure some would like to see us go under again.

I have said several time that Fenty is a control freak,

Which means if he thinks something different to the manager than he must be right,

Hurst said when he joined Shrewsbury that it would be good working for an honest person,

By saying that I guess Fenty had told him he could have  this that or the other then went back on his word,

Fenty went on record saying a 6 month rolling contract is the future,

Well that worked with Hurst and Bignot but surprise surprise nothing has been said about Slades contract,

So I am thinking Russ got what he wanted at least a 2 year or 3 year deal,

That's fine by me and if Fenty is honest with Slade and listens and acts on his wishes which he seems to have done up to now we will be a better run football club,

Can a Leopard change his spots ? I doubt it but we will see.

Again its early days but Slade has got a lot bigger back up team than any other manager under Fenty,

Lets hope it continues.

Quoted from barralad


I don't know very much about Mike Parker's financial situation. I always thought he didn't actually have a business of his own..


Mike was known as one of the gang of four who basically owned the shares in Young`s Bluecrest as it was and sold to an investement company.Not sure of the financial details but think the four all made around 12-15million profit.Make no mistake a massive Town fan for many years and no doubt in my mind he felt very badly let down by the others in the boardroom when his INITIAL investment wasn`t matched and GTFC lost out.I have followed Town since 79 and believe Chairmen etc should be seen and not heard and on Fenty`s watch we have stumbled from bad to worse and all the dirty linen gets aired in public time and again.FENTY OUT

There were some seriously bad footballing decisions made in the boardroom which led to that embarrassing turn of events..

Said it before and will say it again nobody will invest serious money into GTFC as in reality there is fcuk All to invest in.

The only hope we have is if Slade pops his cherry and wins promotion or we just get a replacement in that has a good run in the last 3rd of the season and get an average side to scrape a play off victory.

It's going to be a slog for a few years yet ladies & gents but it's better than getting dicked away at Braintree

Scunthorpe have managed to bring in someone who will fund them and boost their coffers and they are a much smaller club than us. Same with Lincoln.
