I see him more in a Skoda, pre VAG at that.

as predicted by many they have caved in to fenty(con) at the earliest opportunity,fuk me even i thought  they would last a bit longer   stick to catering issues and painting the bogs clearly being turned over by tory boy.


I keep forgetting that we have lots of rich investors to choose from to bankroll the club.
Why don't you put up the money needed and then you can have more of a say.

I think your limitations are the ones in evidence fella. . .Thank you for your confidence. I don't agree though. the voting process has come AFTER the decision made to hand over all voting rights thus giving fenty the majority he wanted to become chair again.  Whether or not they sell the remaining shares is kind of like window dressing. The voting rights have been transferred to the Chair of any AGM/EGM and NOT to John Fenty.

The trust have caved in (albeit to a formidable businessman), they are out of their depth business-wise. The Board had to act to safeguard the squad before the January deadline. This coupled with the above should demonstrate we not quite as naieve as you might imply. Much more than you know went on behind the scenes and this will be explaiined in due course

I am in no way insulting the efforts of the trust, they are generally good people but they have been manipulated to do exactly what John wanted them to do!I appreciate why you might have arrived at this conclusion.

Sorry Pre-Vag, I must clarify that I was using the word 'mate' in a very condescending way.  You are in no way my mate, you are irrelevant!

Let's get this one straight, the trust could never run this football club and if they did then we'd be resigning ourselves to life in this league. They do a great job raising funds and it's got a lot of people interested and it is a nice back-up just incase. But if they think somebody can do more with their money than they can and still have a large chunk of that money to keep away for desperate times, then good on them. It isn't a 'shambles' it's a couple of shrewd moves for the good of the club, first accepting the shares from Parker and secondly giving away 200k so the club can have 200k extra. Let us not forget that the trust never raised the money themselves, it was given to them and if they've managed to double the CLUBS money in that time then fantastic.

It shouldn't be a case of trust v the club, they both work as one and this is a good decision for the club.

If Mr Fenty wants the shares why does'nt he buy them therefore giving the trust the funds to take a seat on the board.
