Still waiting for the ups Phil. Guess they will never materialise under JF now, but with his track record, they never would have.
By far the least successful period on the pitch in our entire history. 20 years going nowhere but down.
Some legacy.
Remind me how many times our small club has graced Wembley Stadium under John’s tenure? We’ve had some terrific times. Oh and a trip to Cardiff too. He’s appointed managers that were popular choices. He has backed everyone of them financially and given every one of them more than a fair crack of the whip. He’s been brilliant, and absolutely nobody can say otherwise. Without John you wouldn’t even have a club to support right now

Not worthy of a reply. 50 years supporting Town, and I know what I've witnessed.

Almost every manager he's appointed has been the popular choice except a couple of occasions.
Due diligence is hardly something that's easily done. Every set of supporters says bad things when somebody leaves, not least the fans of a club where he dobbed them in and set their downfall in motion.
Clubs can't go round saying all the bad things about managers to each other because the law doesn't allow it, much like I can't give somebody a bad reference if a new employer contacts me.
You can give a factual reference, if the facts are bad then in effect its a bad reference. The only rules regards references are that they cannot be misleading , inaccurate or discriminatory. So for instance if Former Manager A had been disciplined for late time keeping, arriving drunk at work, violent conduct to other staff or other breaches of policies etc then that can be shared as it would be factual. If he was suspected of the above but never investigated and proven, then it couldnt.

Absolute rubbish. He was more interested in protecting his interests than the club. If we had gone into administration we could have wiped out all debt and emerged stronger as many lower league clubs did , we would have emerged stronger and been far better off now. Instead he paralysed the club by just putting in enough so the club survived, but more importantly, his loans weren't written off Then there was the debt to the inland revenue of withheld income tax

Your such a bell end Phillip
Is this a wind up or something? Those £200,000 of shares were not given to John by the supporters. They were given to him by the Mariners Trust and the members of the Trust decided to do that. They weren’t forced to do it, they could have held on to them if they wanted to. Why didn’t they?
Do you really think that the Mariners Trust was merely loaning John ownership of those shares? Don’t be daft. They gave those shares for a very good and valid reason and the bigger picture at that time.

Two non league play off finals, Two FA Trophy finals plus a League 2 play off final. How many did we win Felipe? How many relegations? How many promotions? In debt. If thats brilliant I sure hope we never get someone who is crap. Existence with him as benefactor was worse than death and rebirth. However he used propoganda from the pulpit to hide the real truth. As Baudelaire said “The greatest trick the Devil ever pulled was convincing the world he didn't exist"

| 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
