Quoted from Cloudy


He cannot call his loans in unless it is affordable for the club. This applies to all directors loans in GTFC


He can do what he likes. Unless there is a specific clause limiting his ability to call in the loans, and I've never heard of any such clause, he can call in his loans whenever he likes.


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.

The fans gave over 100k to the club . The club sign a top player they then sell the top player and then the owner of the club rewards himself with 200k ?  Am I missing something or is this a fact ?

Sorry, no issure with that, love him or hate him JF has put the money in and is entitled to get some of it back when we turn a profit, however it came about- its not like he has emptied the clubs coffers.

He could have been well within his rights to take more to be honest, no issues here. Whatever you think of him he "put his money where his mouth is" as a former Man U supporter once said.    

So what happens is people moan that we are indebted via the benign loans then when we start to pay those loans down people still moan, if as reported JF did tell someone to eff off recently well where some "supporters" are concerned it's arguably a bit overdue.

We are having trouble scoring goals, that is not his fault maybe the blame lays at the feet of the manager who appears to have signed a couple of donkey's up front.

I gave the money I gave to help get us promoted. We got promoted with that money and Bogle played a huge part. As far as I'm concerned, my money was well used.

and he also allowed the signing of numerous players on the back of selling that player in the same transfer window ...

JF should have had the good grace to put the initial £2m in as a proper investment by the way of shares if he intended to rule on his own for so long. So if the odd fan is saying he's entitled to getting his money back, what's the last fifteen years of relegations and non-league and future years of drudgery all been for? Surely there's got to be some kind of cost for him to live out a dream and shut out the chance of anyone else doing it? MP and the Trust have invested money without ties along with the OP money, JF had the pleasure of spending it all himself. Not only does the £2m hold us back investment wise, paying it all back at some stage is going to stunt our progress too. It's not as simple as "he put his money in, he deserves it back." Whoever has the honour of running our club should invest not loan, especially if the tenure starts to span generations upon generations of our fans..

The principle of investment is you put the money in and then get it back.

I have a lot of issue with JF, he's turned our once proud club into a tin pot club with zero risk to himself.  There's no investment in our club and it's not going to get better until we have someone knows how to run a football club.

Only when the entity you have invested in has grown, if the entity decreases then you would normally lose some of your investment
