Quoted from Wrawby_Mariner

If the Trust did not give up the voting rights to 200,000 shares then Liam Hearn would have been sold. If Hearn was sold then the Trust would have have received the blame and effectively killed the Trust.


It almost sounds like our esteemed ex-chairman has been making threats?

Read the letters carefully, more than once, twice, ten times if neccessary.

Make your choices. Choose well people. Good Luck.

This is My view and not the view of the Trusts.



Marc - can you confirm whether the Trust has asked for a place on the Board in return for the shares and what was said in return? Also, what does being involved in setting the budget actually mean?

Quoted from crusty ole pie

John fenty has the potential to benefit  ? It's costing him another 200000 quid on top of the money he has already poured into the club think it would take a lot of football fortune for him to benefit just be grateful he is prepared to keep throwing money in and if a big if he is ever in a position to benefit from his investment who could blame him


John Fenty has the potential to benefit financially from this, yes.

Irrespective of likelihood, if someone came in to take the club over and offered to pay him his loans back and £1 per £1 in shares he would benefit to the tune of £200,000.

There is clearly a conflict of interest here and this should be looked at.

Is it possible to create some kind of Q&A thread for Trust members and Trust board members to discuss things?  Might be a good idea to have one central location for Q&A's on this ballot - people can PM you their questions and you can add them to a thread with the answer?

I'd expect Trust Chair Chris P to view this request and no doubt he'd speak with other sto decide whether this was deemed appropriate. I'm afraid it's not within my remit to agree to anything like that. Sorry I cant help mor

Absolutely unbelievable that the trust would consider giving any shares to Fenty. The trust board have clearly been bamboozled into this and have shown how painfully weak they are. The club have finally started to go well and Fenty and the trust have found a way to divide the fans and fucck the progress up.

And you know all the facts do you?  Harsh comments if you ask me.  Trust members and the board hopefully will make a balanced opinion and vote for the benefit of GTFC.  We shall see.

For all you saying you have to be a member to comment on this, why don't you all fook off and create a Trust members only board then and discuss it there instead of posting it on a public forum...??? Some of you are so far up your own arses you're sucking on your tonsils... Get the fook over yourselves...

Oh and one last thing - the trust hasn't earned it's right to speak up on the fans behalf, it was gifted to them... After hearing how slow the uptake of membership had been I think the general consensus amongst the majority of Town fans is that they don't want the Trust to act on their behalf, yet it has pretty much been forced upon them...

Personally I waited before deciding whether to join or not, I have to say i'm pleased I did... I'm not having a personal dig at the board members because they have my full respect for trying to help and giving up their time etc but for me it just doesn't seem to be working at the minute... I'm sure others will disagree and they will never be able to please everyone all the time, I guess at the minute they are failing to please me...
