Slade needs to go, no question about it.

Thing is with the current board in charge we’ll continue to go backwards, I do not trust them one bit to hire another manager capable of delivering what we expect and I definitely have no confidence in their ability to run the club at the top. Fenty and board are the root cause of our problems. Their total contempt and lack of respect for fans continues to astound me, the decision making is laughable, the board lie to us and frankly they’re holding us back. If Fenty sacked slade but stayed himself, in six months time we’d be in the same situation again. The only way this club is going to get anywhere is a complete change from top to bottom.

As for Marley, he should’ve been sacked the moment he told a fan to shut up.

Thing with Fenty and Slade, particularly after the way slade was brought in and the fact that they’re friends, I feel that if one goes the other has too. There really is no other option.

Even if by some miricle the club started to be run properly at boardroom level tomorrow, it wouldn’t work because there’s been a complete and irreprable breakdown in trust between the club and it’s fans - the only way to repair this would be if the board stepped down.

Attendances would go up if the board left, making us more than sustainable. Even without the Bogle money we’d have broken even last financial year.

Everything about GTFC is an unmitigated disaster.

Time for change, from the top down because at the minute, as a friend who supports another club who have had their own disasters recently pointed out to me said, Grimsby Town look like how they did not so long back, like a club that’s about to die unless something changes sooner rather than later.

I think you've got the wrong end of the stick. The Fishy 5 are supposed to be against the board, not for it.

When did Martley tell a fan to shut up?

Hasn't Fenty said numerous times he would step aside if somebody were to come along and take the club on? So my question would be - if you got your wish and Fenty were to leave the club tomorrow, who would come in and inject the required funds into the club and run it day to day?

This “Fenty out” thing is getting tiresome

Fenty wants to leave, he’s had enough of it all, but NO ONE want to Buy GTFC at this moment in time.

If you had £2 million in The club town would you just happily walk away and say goodbye to that kind of money? no you wouldn’t. What he needs to do is get rid of Russell Slade tonight, invest more money and hopefully he will be able to sell the club


Are we any closer to getting promoted since Hurst has been here? No

Has he been given time to achieve promotion by the chairman and fans? Yes

Hurst out

Mr Fenty take that 200k you pocketed and pay Slade and his side kick off and then just leave the club before you totally kill it.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

As I said if you’d read my post properly, we’d have broken even last financial year even without the Bogle money. The club is actually sustainable.

Anyway, on Monday on sports talk they mentioned that we have had plenty of people wanting to invest, they just can’t work with the club. We’d be fine. Also, am I right on thinking 200k was actually taken out of the club last season? That means we’re not being bankrolled as some believe.
