Really??

I would suspect that you have an extra large supply always available !!


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'

Why do people have this misconception that John wanted a career in politics? Makes me laugh when I hear that.

He had no desire whatsoever to do anything other than serve as a local councillor, to serve the local community.

Also why do people jump to the conclusion that John introduced Alex May to the council? I’ve a feeling that an enquiry will raise a few eyebrows regarding the involvement May had at NELC, in terms of the number of meetings and the period of time this was over. Not that I am suggesting there’s been any impropriety in this, merely that it will likely go further than many will imagine. The council are neither naive or run by one person on these various committees

Further to getting carried off the pitch at Bournemouth I remember him getting loads of handshakes on his way downstairs at the end of the Notts County survival match.

I don't know who you are nor do I care to know but Jesus Christ, please stop spouting poisonous sh!te on here. Fenty has been caught firmly with his fingers in the till of Arkwright, that cannot and more importantly should not be defended.

I'm having trouble with the idea that you actually believe what you are typing. I keep forgetting how much John Fenty wanted to do for both the town and it's football club. When was he planning the name change from Grimsby to Fentyville with his statue in St. James Square and a plaque underneath with the word Saviour writ large.

As for the introduction of May it really doesn't matter, the fact is that Fenty was prepared to go into business with him, that Fenty was prepared for him to have some sort of involvement with the football club and that Fenty was responsible for regeneration within the council and that May wanted an involvement in that too. Whether he introduced May to the council or someone on the council introduced May to him is of little import.



And when you fall back into the mud it hurts a lot.
No! None of it was true, none of those things we thought we could see existed at all.
All that was really there was still more misery

Completely agree , John certainly didnt go into it to help push support for the relocation of his football club from the inside did he ? only to serve the people , to help save a roundabout and all that , great guy.
What does baffle me though is why on earth did he just resign his posts , surely he wouldnt let the people he loves down , leave them out in the cold without a hero to represent them.....especially as you say he really hasnt done anything wrong in relation to the role of councillor and portfolio holder.  Almost doesnt add up does it ?  

It's as if maybe.....he isnt that squeaky clean and wholesome after all.......but as you say..no that cant be.

Do you believe the stuff you type or do you just go for it and see what happens?

You realise the first sentence makes zero sense is contradictory?
