The more i think about it,the more it seems like brinkmanship.

Is Fenty calling Parkers bluff?

Well Fenty is an aspiring politician after all....he must have learnt a few tricks by now from his fellow Con men on how to change course

Just what I thought. Fenty's saying to Parker: "put up or shut up".

I'm not sure about that...in a financial sense Mike Parker already has "put up".  I think he just feels that the position of the Board is untenable when the guy who own 54% of the shares isn't sat on it!

But does share ownership translate into money the club can use ?

People should listen to Dave Otter on RH (from 43:40)
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/p00k7rdy/Sports_Talk_19_09_2011/

"Well according to John, for the moment there's no financial problem."
"But there could be a problem come December January time when there will need to be extra investment. And basically it's down to Mike Parker."

Has Fenty overspent ?
Is he shouldering the day to day financial burden all by himself ?

"We aint got no fackin money" + "use it or lose it" - we should have seen it coming....

A mate who is linked to the club text me last night to say that Mike Parker has forced the issue of Fenty's resignation.

Until we here from Mike Parker we're in the dark.

Fenty stands down as Chairman to become a director should be no problem, however it's now time for Chapman and Elsom to leave they offer nothing and have been part and parcel of why we have dropped like as stone, get rid of these limpets whilst there are big changes at boardroom level of the club.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

Has anyone actually read the official statement? Feny as  stepped own over a few fans swearing at him, or some cunning plan to get Parker to step up with some cash. He and the club are being investigated by the Take Over Panel, and Fenty has already been interviewed. Town are a PLC and the directors can't go around passing shares around each other, or creating new ones, they have to follow rules regarding share ownership. I don' claim to know anything about share dealing, but I'd guess Fenty has either stepped down because they've broken these rules, or its a temporary thing until they've towed the line and offered Parker the chairmans role or something similar.

Rather tan running scared of a few gobby chavs, Fenty's more worried about having his collar felt over misunderstanding the rules regarding running the business.

Time for Church to get off the bench and into the Boardroom then,  with his degree in Business & finance. If he cant help you ON the pitch he might help OFF it . . In all seriousness i hope its for the good of your club.
