Fenty stepping down as Councillor.

Fellipe you are delusional.

Why would all these people wait until Fenty has left the club before they come out and say what a wonderful man he is? Why not say it before he goes? Why don't they tell us all now so we can beg him to stay? It seems a little odd to me that although we have heard many tales of penny pinching and poor treatment of players / staff, as well as the obvious mismanagement of the club, we have to wait until the tyrant has gone to hear stories of his greatness.

Fenty is like all despots. He rides in on his white charger, winning over the populace with his visions for the future, tales of prosperity and greatness, of how he is the saviour. As the empire begins to crumble he surrounds himself with sycophants and those who, blinded by his greatness, refuse to believe the evidence of their own eyes. As time marches on and the empire becomes a mere kingdom he placates the mob by replacing his generals with lesser men and with tales of a new palace rising up only a short distance from where the old castle is becoming decrepit. As the kingdom falls he makes questionable alliances, his contempt for the people shows and finally he hands over whats left of the once mighty empire to his enemies and goes into exile, whilst all the time his supporters fall upon their swords shouting to the world as they do "You'll see, you'll see" In the ruins of what once was, the people try to rebuild knowing that they can never regain what was there before.

Sorry I got a bit carried away, which is what you should be. You claim to have nothing to do with the club save from being an ordinary fan and yet you seem to know so much about the comings and goings during the time of the despot. J'accuse Fellipe

Have to say it's hilarious reading  some of this. Old Fillipe casts out a massive juicy worm and the fish go into a feeding frenzy. He'll be sitting at home making the next one up as we speak, all increasingly ridiculous and it works every time
Just ignore him people, and he'll go away

Quoted from Boris Johnson

Supporters didnt have to bankroll anything. That was additional funding to enhance whatever budget would have been in place. The Club did not go begging. Whether the club would have been promoted without that extra cash is another argument.

So if the supporters money was not needed why did he accept it ? So why did the budget need enhancing, surely JF should have had the funds to enhance the budget for promotion . Given that JF accepted the money why didn't he suggest that he would return the money to the fans ?

The supporters wanted to be a part of the promotion push, and their fund raising was terrific. As a club we could not deny supporters wishes to do what they wanted. It was an amazing gesture and wholly appreciated. It was galvanising, and demonstrable of just how together the fan base was with the board and the entire club, in a collective desire to push for promotion. It was everything that Grimsby supporters are, just amazing supporters.

Who was the we

Indeed. The club = we, the supporters = they.

Is that a Freudian slip by filipe Noche?

I think some people suspect he is connected to the club or a member of the board in some way, the "we" comment has just confirmed it.

Why would he be saying "we" if he wasn't connected to the club in some way.

Got it   Fillipe is the toilet cleaner..but spent much of his time listning and looking at fentys office door//  Thats why the loos where never clean ,, Oh and do you still have that squint you got from the cold draft through fentys door  keyhole ,

Nice statement, so can you answer the questions I raised. Can you also advise the fans, as the club did not want  to deny supporters wishes and what they wanted, why the club did not maintain the push in league 2 and why the new stadium was never built in these 16 years. You are using the 'We' term so you are obviously on the inside as opposed to looking in from the outside.
