Winning team, bigger crowds, cup runs, Wembley visits and more income with lower wage bills. He loved it.

I hated it.


The thing is that was his criteria of success.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

Quoted from ska face
Seen plenty of people saying conference away days were great - most of them were absolute dross, save for a few in the last couple of years down there. I don’t think we ever sold out single Play-off semi away tie - at Newport, Gateshead, Eastleigh Braintree (fair enough Eastleigh...).


Barnet away was a great day. Beyond that, I can't remember any others.

The only good away day was at Wembley, when we beat FGR and said goodbye to non league.

It's criminal that we could be ending back there again.

Come on then Phil, let’s have a list of Fenty’s achievements as a councillor. I don’t mean getting promoted to be deputy leader or being made head of development - they’re purely political decisions by the party leadership.

What did he achieve for the community in his nearly 13 years in office. I suppose it can’t have been worse than his time running GTFC.

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.

Wow just seen this thread* as I’ve tried to steer clear of Fentybollocks since December. What a delusional bunch of people you and your supporters are John. You’ve got the money to set yourselves up elsewhere now - why not, eh?

Edit: how this thread has progressed. Posted quite early on 🥴

Quoted from Fillipe Noche
John will be a massive loss to the council. He has done a tremendous job.

Well done John on a great role that you’ve fulfilled, and enjoy the time you have to now spend with your lovely family.

Thank you too for everything you’ve done in supporting Grimsby Town FC financially. You won’t get many thanks in this place, but you certainly have my gratitude for getting the club I love financially stable and keeping it that way

👏👏👏


You're entitled to your opinion.

Mine is that he is a turd.

I feel the same.

But if someone had told me he would publicly stand up for a serial con man with several convictions for despicable crimes I wouldn’t have believed that either !!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

I mean this thread took on a life of its own...as a member of the community, not a GTFC, I’m struggling to see what Fenty achieved or did as councillor, aside from standing with his arms out on tollbar roundabout.

I think his major success was somehow finding his way up to deputy leader without doing anything other than being rich it would seem. I mean I guess had he not been rightfully exposed then getting in to bed with a convicted several times fraudster would’ve been regarded a success...to him anyway.

If he had a even a minister bit of honesty and integrity he’d have resigned immediately from all his roles, not just stepped down to councillor again. The sad thing is that I honestly think he believes he’s done nothing wrong.

That counts for GTFC too, he will walk away with with a pocket full of cash and honestly think he did a good job...

Deluded, and whilst I guess I understand his family still sticking up for him or claiming he’s done ok because I guess they have to but anyone else doing it is odd...

His love for the town..ruined the football team and tried to feather his own nest by getting in to bed with a convict not giving a hoot about the actual community...now he’ll leave town...good riddance I guess but once again shows how little he really cares. Not even the whiff of an apology...spineless...


'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza
