Let's face it. Shutes and Co have the upper hand. They can sit and wait and watch it all fall apart. And it will very quickly. Fenty will be waiting forever for his 1.5m without a takeover. I thought being paid off over three years was an extremely generous offer. I was surprised when I heard it..

Quite. If I was in their shoes I'd have offered him the money for his shares minus the amount he was gifted by the trust which I would ask him to return to the trust for free. And I'd offer him nothing for the loans safe in the knowledge that his position is untenable and no manager worth employing would go anywhere near the club now until the current board is gone.

The fact he's quibbling over when he gets it all back blows my mind. The man has no self-awareness or humility.

And the bit about financial responsibility for relegation. The board have overseen and signed off this poor current squad of players assembled by their choice of manager, Shutes and Co could maybe make 10% changes to it in the transfer window restricted by a wage cap inflicted by the current board, and it would be their fault for relegation. Talk about shifting the culpability and blame, breathtaking..

John’s main puppet has the nerve to put out a statement that the consortium has to pass a fit and proper person assessment by the EFL. Just hours after defending a fraudster for only stealing from financial institutions.

Quoted from lew chaterleys lover

Well its obviously pure speculation as none of us know the truth, but I think it is telling that a statement update was made late in the day providing olive branches, admittedly through gritted teeth.

I think the opposite - that isnt an olive branch. They genuinely think other people will think " oh so they could just do any of these oh so simple things, and the board definitely want to sell they are telling them how to do It, oh they can't be serious buyers then. Oh well back to fenty and Day, obviously no other options for us grimsby fans."

It cant be an olive branch as obviously shutes et al will know all this. They think they are shoring up their position with a cunning statement.

God I friggin hate fenty and now day as well

It's all fake news. We won the decade, by a big margin.
