and without Fenty's money we probably won't even have a club.


That's right because the countless other clubs who have gone into administration are miles bigger than us.  

We didn't go into admin because JF would have lost everything, he didn't have the clubs asests at the time, now he does and all is good.


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.

who knows maybe then we will be back in the league and not have as big as money worries, if not we can then argue about it again this time next year.


and you could always give Fenty the other 200,000 shares?

Oh I'm sure someone as astute as John Fenty (Con) will be able to find a way around that, after all it appears it is his life's ambition to own and control every last part of GTFC and anyway how can he twist the Trust's arm in 14 months time if they have nothing he wants.

Come to think of it if the Rule 9 limit applies the Trust haven't got anything left that he wants now, he's screwed them forwhat he can so no reason not to kick them in the b@llocks right now really?

Quoted from Ipswin


If the board make just one right decision (right for the club that is as opposed to right for Fenty - I suspect every decision from now on will be 'right' for our John) it will be the first time since Fenty got on the board

As for excrement referees, the vote was so discredited by the 'seat on the board sweetener' it was so bent it made the referee at Fleetwood look honest.

You voted for it Trust members (well 82% of 72% of the membership which I make about 177 based on a membership of 300 voted for it) so enjoy your beief spell in Fenty's good books and feel smug for another 14 months if you wish but don't forget when it goes mammary's up - you voted for it, it's down to you, just 177 of the total fanbase decided the course of the club and sold out what was left of the club in 'independent' hands (no disrespect to other 'private' shareholders but your shares are like mine totally useless vote-wise)

It will be interesting to see if the Trust's increased membership is maintained or if following the giveaway of the shares many will not renew their subscriptions.

RIP the Trust, your one and only opportunity to make a mark thrown away - welcome back to total obscurity

what a tube, where was the money for future funding comming from then, the vote is fantastic support for fenty and for another season,if we dont get promoted this season (which we will) fenty will keep the squad together and next season will be our season, SO THANKYOU TRUST MEMBERS FOR DOING THE RIGHT THING FOR THE CLUB.

Ah, so that's the plan. Well, I'm convinced. I mean these negative Fenty-knockers will say things like "what about that bit in football where you don't actually know who's going to win?" but what do they know, with their negativeness and their Fenty-knocking. No, this logic is impeccable. Well done.

From JF.  You choose to believe he would have stopped funding the club in the event of a NO vote.  Others don't agree with your assumption.


"Pound for pound, and class for class, the best football team I have seen in England since the war. In the league they were in they played football nobody else could play. Everything was measured, planned and perfected and you could not wish to see more entertaining football." Bill Shankly, Manager GTFC 1951-54

Pointless complaining about it now. Votes have been counted, verified. Decision is made. Let's all get behind the team and now that control is back in the boardroom we can all hope the board make the right decisions for the long term future of our club.
Pack the park Saturday roar the team on to 3 points and get the intercourse out of this excrement league with it's excrement referees and excrement away days.


my sentiments exactly

of course he would, why would he put money into somthing that he has no control over, his hands where tied equally as much as the trusts where, thankfully the overwhelming majority voted for, so on we go utm.
