I find it most amusing that during a recent interview, when the questioner asked him of his thoughts about the changes at Grimsby, Swann's reply was and I quote, " Don't you dare put me in the same category as Fenty, I am a completely different character .
Make what you like of that.
For what it’s worth, I think Swann’s legacy at Scunny may well end up being a multiple or two more disastrous than Fenty’s at Town. That’s not a defence of Fenty in the slightest, but rather a reflection of the existential shìt show that surely waits in store for them. Still plenty of healing and recovery to do at GTFC, let’s not lose sight of that, but I would be genuinely fearful of the future if I were a Scunny fan right now.

Yeah Fenty doesn’t like horse racing.

If you backed Michael Chapman's horses you wouldn't.

A true catastrophe is happening there. Two warning signs (on the pitch) I noticed early on were Cox saying they will 'play football as much as they can', not very inspiring is it? And in another interview Cox saying that he'd plastered all around the club and dressing room quotes of people writing them off and saying how excrement they are. I understand doing that to an elite footballer may tempt their ego into passion but doing that to a group of lads that are, in fact, pretty excrement is absolute suicide.
Hearing that Swann is offended to be compared to Fenty is hilarious. There's about 10 stone difference, that's it. His son is chief scout, he tries to pick the team, he's swallowed their assets and seen off managers such as Alexander and Hurst. The man is definitely in Fenty's league. Oh and he's sure we would swap positions with them given the chance. hahahahahahaha that is all.

Add to the Managers list Robbins who’s done a decent job at Coventry.

Let’s not be too unfair about the Scunts, both Swann and Cox are taking them in the right direction.

4 years after Slade left us in 2006, we were relegated into non-league. The next, and only other manager to leave us in or around a play-offs since is Paul Hurst in 2016. 5 years later, we were back in non-league.
Scunthorpe sacked Alexander in March 2018 when they were in the League One play-off positions. As we approach 4 years later, it's looking like they will be relegated into non-league.
The only difference is that we didn't sack those managers, they chose to leave but the recruitment that followed was questionable.

It looks bleak for them now. But we've all seen enough football to know that things can change so I wouldn't write them off yet. Remember last season when we were proper clowns all season long. They were't far behind but they had that 7 days where the won 3 games and it saved them. Football can turn around, expect their manager (who appears to be a proper clown) to go soon and then a potential bounce.

Amazed we avoided nepotism considering cronyism was alive and well at the club. Maybe Fenty didn't have any kids who wanted anything to do with it.
Didnt he get his daughters to model the new kit once over? penny pinching instead of models?
