As the Trust were not the only major shareholder outside the boadroom, Mike Parker being the other, I wonder if the Trust were the only ones asked/offered to give shares to John Fenty.

Fenty hasn't asked for mine yet but then I didn't fancy making the tea at board meetings anyway

Thanks to the actions of the Trust, Mr Fenty has committed to underwriting the potential losses at the club until end of the 2012-13 season. Thats an eternity in footballing terms.

And again, you're obviously the only one capable of planning ahead or even giving the future any thought.

80's, how do you know I haven't given it a thought?

Do you know me?

One thing I do know..all the personal attacks and negativity just for the sake of it, isn't going to help.

Depends on whether you believe Fenty. Bennett's fee was just a pipe dream in December when £150,000 was put in. In January? Who knows. The club/Fenty's official line is that Bennett's deal was only done on deadline day and could easily have not happened at all. The money is supposed to have been injected before then. I couldn't say for sure, I don't know.

Have to agree though, that with footballing fortune, there may not be any losses to fund. Wouldn't that be a fantastic footballing scenario that I'm sure we'd all love to see.

I think you're right.
But you could just ignor it too.

Have you given the future a thought ?
I don't know - that's why I asked you.

Hey remember that time when Town we were winning, all was harmonious and 80's Glory left the forum?

November 2011 - January 2012. Never forget.

It was 3 weeks, you're talking rubbish and I'm not being dragged into silly arguments.

Not blowing my own trumpet but I did say if we could win away we might build momentum and go on a big winning run.

Obvioiously all credit goes to S&H for the improvements they've made.

Roll on Braintree when our other players return and if we lose, it's all my fault !

It's understandable but you're getting totally the wrong end of the stick here lads.

You really think I want to have a pop at JF so he decides to upsticks sodomist off and leave us in the sh1t ?
Read my other threads - I'm in the yes camp !

As I said it was just a joke - tbh I wasn't even thinking of WHO said it, just thinking of the play-on words, regardless of who did.

I can understand people making that conclusion but let me tell you, you're wrong.

That said, I admit it was probably thoughtless and a poor choice.
So ok hands up I apologize for not thinking, just trying to put some humour back in that's all, as I said poor choice.

But let's not just assume eveyone is "anti-Fenty" though eh ? If in doubt, ask ?

As for you Dan, you would do better than making up a load of BS stirring the sh1t mate, whatever you bizarre personal issues with 80sglory are they aint gonna help the club !
Out of interest, what is your issue with me ?
You seem to pop up a hell of a lot slagging me off. Can I do something to help ?
At least come clean and say it instead of making up a load of BS for no reason !
Should you really be treating your fellow mariners like this ?
Or have you got the wrong end of the stick too ?
If so then I'll let you off, I can't say fairer than that.

Well this  question was worth raising. It seems to have descended into another excuse to slag each other off.
