Quoted from Ipswin
I'll try and have a word with Fenty outside the directors entrance next Saturday. We had a brief chat last season about the Mighty Mariner fiasco amongst others before the strode off in a huff perhaps I'll have more success asking why he hasn't sacked the bald one (but don't hold yer breath)


I spoke to him at half time versus Morecambe I politely said “John this is rubbish” he nodded looked at me and said “ yes I know” I then said “ we pay hard earned money to come here” his response? “ yes I know” then he scuttled down the steps for a half time hob knob no doubt.

So he knows it’s sh1t on and off the pitch but refuses to do something, oh no sorry wait a minute he sends an open letter justifying poor performance.

So demo or a quiet polite word face to face he simply does not and will not get it.

Depends how far from the doorway I join him. Bit like some poor sod reporter running alongside some slippery Frof or Kraut MEP trying to get a comment re Brexit

This in spades.

I stayed behind after the fans forum and spent 15-20  mins speaking to him and Marley.  Two things became clear.

1. John has developed a bunker mentality and either will not or genuinely can not listen to anything he perceives to be negative.

2.  Steven Marley is 100% a ‘yes’ man.  

Protests will make no difference whatsoever. The only thing that will register is empty seats and unfortunately the bi-product of that is a smaller budget.

Gentlemen. To put it bluntly. We are fukked 🙁


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

I'd agree with the bit in bold but also think he's paralyzed by fear, a fear of criticism.

I'd also agree that we are "fujjed"

Some hope.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

After conversing with him in a couple of Pm's he made it clear he isn't taking on board other people's opinions as he knows what he is doing and what he is doing is right in his opinion.


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.

The mistake was giving Slade such a good contract. Will cost hell of a lot in payoffs which we can't afford. J.F.made the mistake and more than likely knows this but what can he do. He and the board will be hoping some miracle happens but I can't see it happening while Slade is here. I just wish J.F. could meet him on the stairs.Slade must have a thick skin -he's got J.F. fked,the board fked, the supporters fked and even the players fked. Everybody is fked unless he does the decent thing.  Do it Slade FFS

If that is true the payoff is affordable.
