Was Slade a failure? See my thread above. There are people that are so Pro & Anti Fenty that they have memory loss when it comes to history.


well put

Does that mean he's been unlucky in his other appointments then ?!



Baldrick ! The only impression you can do is that of a man with no talent !!

I respect your views but to say anyone who doesn't take your stance is a 'sycophant' just makes me lose that little bit of respect.


Well said and exactly the point i was going to make but you beat me to it.The word "sycophant" has been used about three times in this thread and the phrase "living in cloud cuckoo land" has also been trotted out about anyone who even comes close to defending JF.

Being anti JF and railing against his reign doesn't make you righteous and everyone elses views sycophantic and stupid.

For the record,i also think JF's watch has been a disaster and that's something he admits himself but he didn't make Buckley suddenly become a crap manager and tell Newell to buy a load of dross players and manage them in a clueless way.Neither did he make Proudlock miss a last minute pen and the team throw away vital leads which would probably have kept us up.

The Woods appointment was a big mistake though.We needed someone more experienced to keep us in the league,so there is a lot to blame Fenty for but it's not all his fault.

I apologise to anyone offended by the word 'sycophant' but I just happen to be pretty appalled by the current state of the club that I have supported for over 40 years.

Quoted from Quagmire


The money that he has put in is in direct relation to the money that he has cost the club due to his total mismanagement.

And why do people continue with this rubbish that without him there wouldn't be a club to support? It's simply propaganda perpetuated by Fenty to try and rally some support, and the lemmings all fall for it.

10 years of mismanagement and a second consecutive year of near million pound losses and we're expected to believe that the man who has brought us to this point is the same man who will get us out of it when the evidence is abundantly clear that he isn't capable of doing it.


What a daft comment to make, total fiction

IMO the club will never go forward with him a chairman and the sooner he is gone the better. The damage he has inflicted on the club is massive and he may well leave us bankrupt. The fact that town fans can applaud him makes me feel sick!

Who knows you could be proved right but I wouldn't take a round of applause to heart.
People generally like to look up to people that are representatives of what they associate themselves with - in this case a love and passion for GTFC.

If JF is such a massive Town fan why doesnt he simply write off the loans and sell the Club to Parker for £1 thus ensuring the Football Club rid itself of the main reason ie John Fenty that it finds itself outside the Football League looking in?I think that is because he isnt such a massive Town fan and in fact he is a cold calculating buisnessman who somehow thinks he can gain via a new ground for the football Club.John Fenty has been a total disaster for GTFC and the sooner he goes the quicker we will recover our league status even the Connel transfer shows he still hasnt learned to do anything in a dignified manner SHAME ON HIM.UTM

Because he wants a legacy...ie new ground. He'll never go until that's in place. It's not about the club.
