Moral high ground? Not at all.

I would just like to know what the fook moaning about it on here will achieve. Like me, you were also invited to go see JF and you declined, so don't come over all keyboard warrior on me.

I'm as unhappy as the next fan, but unlike some, i accept there's not a right lot i can do about it, save stop going to games and what will that achieve?

And no, the cap does not fit as i am far from happy.


Because the last time I checked this is a Grimsby town football forum ..

Moaning on here will probably achieve eff all. Just the same as having an appointment with the self-appointed saviour of GTFC, It's not about being 'all keyboard warrior' - this is the future of our football club that's at stake - I'm not willing to be patronised by the man whose 'benign' loans hang over the club like the Sword of Damocles even if you are.


And that is exactly my point. Whether you accept the status quo and are deemed an happy clapper, or whether you rant and rave on a message board is all irrelevant. You not willing to be patronised as you put it, won't make a blind bit of difference. I don't know why you are having a go at me and why others are seeking to apportion blame to fans they see as accepting mediocrity.

Yes it is but blaming "happy clappers" for the state of affairs is plain daft. Why blame fans for turning up and supporting the team.

Don't blame anyone for supporting their,don't expect everybody to agree with me,but I do take exception to being slated for  stating opinion by people who are now conspicuous by their absence.

I'm not having a go at any individuals. I just don't see the point of accepting the state of GTFC just to placate the chairman/non-chairman/senior director/director. Mr Fenty has presided over the worst era in the club's history (fact) and is preventing external investment by refusing to write off his loans to the club spent on reckless appointments. Whether or not you approved of Bignot's appointment, who appointed him, who authorised January's signings and the sale of Bogle, who sacked him 6 months in etc? Not me, not you, but the club's senior investor.

But my point is that we have no choice but to accept it. Where are the alternatives?

Quoted from mariner91
If Fenty truly cared about the club he would make it publically known that at no point does he want his loans paying back, he'd write them off. By now most of that must be from his own shite decisions anyway so how he can reasonably expect to get it back is beyond me.


The benign loans keep him in power. They are not currently being serviced but if anyone wanted to take over they would need to be repaid which would mean that  new investor would have to square the debt as well as invest in the future and considering the only fixed asset that the club has is the BP land (apparently) there is in reality very little to invest in.

There will not be any alternatives until the club makes enough money to pay off the Directors Loans. We are stuck in a stalemate.
