Quoted from pen penfras


I understand why the trust did it. People are starting to turn on them and they want to deflect that pressure. It's an easy escape to say something like that which will then turn the anger back on the club because they're the most reviled entity.

I also think there have been other things done and said by people with an ulterior motive of wanting regime change and trying to force the situation at any cost. Now with the downturn in form, it's a much easier target to get people on the bandwagon. The only problem is, there isn't anybody proposing a realistic solution, just a foot stomping of wanting the man out.


Ulterior motive of wanting regime change? Maybe - but only because the regime hasn't and won't listen to the voices of the customers. You can only pi$$ people off for so long - perhaps you would like to report that bit back to whoever you know on the board.

Exile my ar$e, dear Pen-Pen has been posting nothing but pro-Fenty board guff all along, along with Fenty_Fishtails. Quite how he can even discuss people with their own 'agendas' and ulterior motives is beyond parody when his own are so evident.

I have posted many times about the position of a Trust member on the board while Fenty sits in the chair at meetings (without actually being the chairman) and rules everything with his usual 'I'm right you're wrong we'll do it my way' attitude.

The Trust position on the board is totally powerless and toothless and although I said it in jest, the Trust rep might just as well make the tea and sharpen the pencils, his ability to influence any decision is nil and he can't tell us half of what was said either!

A fat headed cod fish, I have a welsh speaking friend and he also says Penfras has been used as cruel reference to the owner of large and ugly head. So who on the board fits that reference?

‘Sleeper’ springs to mind.

I wonder what ‘phrase’ activated him.

Any ideas folks ?


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'

Aye, i looked it up on Google a couple of weeks back and couldn't find a definitive meaning, but some of the translations were, shall we say, a bit fishy.
