They did not say specifically in this window and RS has said several times some players might be available to come in during the summer. This is their smoke and mirrors get out clause.

I cannot believe what Mr Fenty is doing to our club. Running it down again to non league standards from the very top to the bottom .. Hold your head down and hide like you are doing right now.. Holding the club back for a poxy 2 mill. nothing in football terms . We need someone who knows about football , not a gloryfied fish filleter playing look at me.. Every one can see we need players , and yes that costs money , so you are either in or out

My biggest worry is this, the players contracted for next season:

Dixon
Rose
Kelly
Dembele (option)
Jones
Hooper
Cardwell
Killip (option)
Osborne (option)

That is desperate stuff if we don't re-sign some of our better players from this season (basically Matt, Mills and Summerfield). We need a whole new squad not a few quality players.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Or it could be seen as an opportunity to clear the decks and have a smaller, better quality squad. First task is to negotiate this season unscathed. Then it's up to those in the boardroom and in management what happens after that.

They did

Jan 9: Board statement
In the wake of growing fan unrest, Grimsby Town directors voted to 'unequivocally' back manager Russell Slade - and give him the financial support needed in the transfer window to improve his squad.

I am very much with you on this.

A few weeks ago we may have been able to muse over the future, but all of a sudden survival as a football league club is all that matters.

To be relegated is unthinkable - far worse than last time and that was the worst I have ever felt.

Lets get safe, and then discuss  at length how we can move forward with or without the current board. I would much prefer the current lot to be outed, but it is in their hands if they can find extra inward investment.

The seasons end will also be the time to discuss the new stadium malarky. We would have something heard by now, so if it is a no goer then that changes a lot of things.

My lad and I have often said there is no way Fenty would allow us to be relegated again as he would surely have learned from the previous time! We said we would get top quality players in and quick if it ever looked we might be dragged into a relegation battle...

This is what we are up against - a non chairman who never seems to learn from experience.

You would have thought, hoped and expected that at the very least wouldn't you?

Just to point out Mr Slade & Mr Fenty, that list will not sell many season tickets for next season, even if we manage to stay up.
