The time has come to take the decision to sack Mr Slade and Mr Wilkinson out of your hands. The supporters of Grimsby Town Football Club (I believe) no longer have confidence in the decision making  of you and the present members of the board.
You have spent the season making one PR gaffe after another with Bragate, Kristine, The Fans Forum, The vote of confidence for Russell, letting our better players leave and your comments which a fan recorded.
Do you remember 2010, the last time we got relegated into Non League or do you prefer to remember the Play Off Final when you were stood in the Royal Box accepting all the accolades.
It wasn't because of you that we had that moment of glory. It was because of Operation Promotion, Paul Hurst, Omar Bogle, Padraig Amond, Craig Disley .Nathan Arnold, Shaun Pearson and many more.
Yes, Paul Hurst let many of those players go but when he left he had replaced most of them with a squad who were around the play offs. If you had given him the things he wanted there was a good possibility we would have been in the play offs last season.
I did agree with the appointment of Marcus Bignot, a young and up and coming manager and do agree to a certain extent his dismissal. even though he did achieve in his first season what he set out to do which was league safety, What I don't understand is why when we were in a position to maybe get into the play offs he started going left field and we dropped down the league. Was he under instructions or was a blind eye turned? Would it have meant too much investment getting promotion?
Marcus got sacked after a win away to Blackpool. Why?
You had obviously been in contact with Mr Slade before Marcus got his marching orders because of his immediate appointment.
What made you think he was better than Marcus after his failure at his last 3 clubs?
What made you think the majority of fans would accept him the way he left us last time?
What made you give him a vote of confidence in January?
Why is he still here after no wins in 12 games?
My guess. It is all down to money, arrogance and not admitting to failure.
Or is it because we can be a big fish and have many visits to Wembley in non league?
Oh and the Parachute payments aren't too bad either.

He's been employed under 2 years so cant take you to a tribunal, offer him a compromise agreement and tell him to fcuk off.

He may have a severance clause but paying it will be much less a financial loss to the club than if we go down.

If he wants him gone then he can sell his Aston Martin, snooker table, leather jacket and black jumper to do it because there is no way the club should pay for anymore of his failures.

Possibly because he made the sacking of Bignot and the appointment of Slade look very personal.

Exactly. He has failed for years so his benign loans shouldn't be repaid. He put his money in because he was able to but he should have put someone in place with some footballing nous.Your mistake John not the fans.

This.

Fenty does what Fenty wants. If we had a successful manager that he didn't get on with, he'd get sacked for a lot less. He lets his personal emotions get in the way of rational thinking. He's too close to Slade.

There is absolutely no way Fenty would tolerate this run of results from any other manager. They'd have been shown the door long ago.

If it costs to get rid of Slade, pay it now - otherwise he'll be paying a higher price for being stuck in non-league (and then he'll never get his loans back).

And anyway, why does he think he should get his loans back? Us fans have been pumping hundreds of thousands of pounds into the club during his tenure... imagine if we started demanding all our investments back!

We'll start with that £110,000 we raised for Operation Promotion, John!

There's only one fruit loop and sadly he's still at the club.
