Simple question. Would you be happy with this convicted fraudster, or anyone he's associated with, having any involvement with our football club?

Would anyone who would be happy with his involvement be brave enough to offer an opinion as to why?

Sadly Pete I think the most important thing to Fenty is getting his money back. Anyone who genuinely cared for the club more than they did their money would have written off at least some of that loan. You don't buy a house, make it substantially less attractive through a lack of investment and poor management and then expect to get the same amount you paid for it when you sell.

His justification in selling to a convicted criminal as opposed to philanthropist Tom Shutes should be interesting.

It's almost like this convicted fraudster is looking for a way to make his money clean.

The silence from the club is very worrying.

For me, the word ‘fraudster’ doesn’t really capture the problem. I mean, any fraud is wrong, naturally - but there are those ‘victimless’ types of fraud like benefit fraud, tax fraud and so on. They are indeed victimless in that no one suffers any direct, emotional harm.

But then there’s the exploitation of elderly people, particularly those that had recently become widowed. That takes a pretty special level of moral bankruptcy.



A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.
