Quoted from grimsby pete
We were told the trust members on the board did not know about the dealings with May.

So I expect Ollie did.not know either.

He has better things to do anyway like getting out strikers to shoot straight for one.


No we weren't Pete we were told they were bound by a confidentiallity clause which meant they would not have been able to tell their own (trust) board either way

This is not designed to 'have a go' at Holloway (except maybe by 'Boris Johnson') at all I simply want to Know if, as he sits on the board at meetings, he was aware of it or not. Day appears to be getting flack because he clearly knew so why not anyone else who was aware. If he says he didn't know then fair enough and if he says he did know but doesn't want to comment then that is fair enough and understandable too

Anyone who thinks Holloway moved to Grimsby and breezed through like it was the job he had waited his life for are naiive. There is a reason he came and it wasn't the smooth talking of John Fenty and his cronies. It all looked odd at the time. Very clearly this raises the questions that probably will never be answered. But let's be honest I think most of us had some running round our heads. Didn't we?

Quoted from Boris Johnson


This place has called for full disclosure of what has gone on, and what was known and by whom. There has been nothing but calls for heads to roll. Is it only certain heads?

If he is not complicit all he needs to do is say so.


Was you born an idiot or have you been practicing hard.

Well we appreciate he's an idiot just like his namesake but why can't we ask if Holloway was in the know We are asking / suggesting everyone else in the board room knew so why not him?

Talking of which, the radio said there was a board meeting this afternoon. I wonder what they chatted about?  


The meeting is tonight. In his presser, Olly said he will only discuss football and voice his opinion on the other stuff in the boardroom.

Can’t have it both ways. He’s on the board. He’s got to expect questions about it. He might politely decline to answer them, but hes got to respect the questions.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

I don't think for a minute Fenty would have sat Ollie down and told him he was a business partner of a convicted fraudster of the elderly. You just don't do you?

In the unlikely event Holloway did know, what was he supposed to do about it?  Walk away from a project that he has just started??


It might have been him who leaked to the press 😂

We knew of him and his misdealings a year ago. There was a thread on here about him and it's already been [/b[b]]established that JF knew of his past, so I don't why they got involved with him. He'd already tried and failed at other clubs, but seems to have found favour here, yet another misstep by our board, whichever way you look at it.

As you appear to know everything could you please expand on this for those of us who are in the dark. Who established what?
