Wow just wow.  Alot of things I didn't know about, some things I've forgotten about but what you can't deny is how incompetent he was.  It's like he ran the football club like he ran like a fish factory.

Sooooo glad he is no longer around.

Quoted from ska face


You have to wonder what kind of reputation the club has built up among players during Fenty’s reign, and how many signings we lost because of it.


And then add in what his penny-wise pound-thick ways cost us:
(A) in performance
(B) in extra players in to replace them


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.

Quoted from aldi_01
The fact too many fans swallowed the nonsense is astounding. In any other country Fenty would’ve never made it beyond the Buckley era...we’re not even close to the end yet...

Whilst the fans aren’t the reason we are where we are, some really do need to give themselves a look in the mirror and give their head a wobble...

Those who defended him, what was your reasons? Why? Have you changed your mind? Do you see this as yet more fiction against someone you admire?

I’m curious...


Know what you mean.
For years i got stick from the Fenty apologists on here for my anti fenty stance.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Another great piece by CA. Makes for great reading, but also disheartening how he was effectively able to continue unchallenged for so long. He may have been a complete disaster for the club, but he had an uncanny ability to get control and convince people he was always acting for the best interests of the club and Town.

Every paragraph points to a man with a Narcissistic personality disorder, a pattern of self-centred, arrogant thinking and behavior, a lack of empathy and consideration for other people, and an excessive need for admiration. Others often describe people with NPD as cocky, manipulative, selfish, patronizing, and demanding. Fenty demonstrated all these hallmarks throughout his tenure and the cost of allowing such an individual to run our club has been plain to see.

Why were none of the other board members/trust/staff saying anything about the (quite obvious) capitulation that club was going through and the
Quite obvious fact that the club was in total free fall

I feel this actually needs promoting on other clubs' forums. Mostly just to rub Fenty's name in the dirt but also as a cautionary tale.

I’m still awaiting a response from Fenty apologists or those that didn’t think he was that bad...I really am curious as to why they wouldn’t speak out etc. even though the facts clearly pointed to a deluded narcissistic sharp object killing our club...

I’m sure they’ll trot out the usual flimsy defence of ‘we could be like Bury’...funny really, had the May secret gone through we probably would’ve ended up like Bury...


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