I could only manage halfway through that, yet again he's using the fans as a scapegoat to the performances. This is john fenty in his true colours, if he knew town fans he would know that we don't travel all that way to have a go at players before a balls kicked, theres reasons as to why they are getting grief is simply because of our position and their lack of interest in playing for the club. That bloke riles me so much in his smarmy ways.

Is it asking much for football supporters to support the team they profess to love?

Personally I think that Vernons supersonic hearing is wasted at Town. I was sat towards the side of the stand and I didn’t hear any abuse directed about Vernons family so how on earth did he? (Bearing in mind the distance from the subs and the fans at Cambridge is a fair distance). Also why did he laugh when ‘this fan’ aimed the rude gesture towards the Town fans. If someone abused my family I wouldn’t find it very funny.

No more statements ha ha what a load of codswallop ..


Isn't this a statement about a different thing? This one is mainly about Vernon. The one where it said that was about the manager I think?

That is a fair question.

On that basis, on Saturday I will be cheering the lads on with my usual gusto, whilst also singing "Fenty out" in every break in play. That way everyone's a winner.

You know when a long stay at the helm of a football club is coming to a natural end when you have to agree that some of what JF is saying is sensible regarding the predicament we are in on the playing side. But the ensuing critical comments by the fanbase carry much more credence because events in the past have led to the sorry state the club now finds itself in..

Desperate message from a desperate man - embarrassing to be fair
Doesn't affect me cos I never abuse players, boo players etc just support the team

He's never ever going to get the fans on board so he'd be better off not giving people more ammunition

Smooth-talking Tory councillor trying to win over (basically) working class fans is a big ask at the best of times - so just leave it John!

But they already do. Even at the last home game the grief was directed at the board and not the players. The same people protesting were also the ones whipping up an atmosphere to support the team. How does protesting against the board effect the players? If anything it deflects the heat from the players. I have no beef with the players. The bloke who abused Vernon is clearly massively in the wrong and I'm not bothered about vernon's reaction.

I do take issue with saying that some people only travelled to Cambridge to protest. The people with banners and doing the Fenty Out chanting have been at games up and down the country for much longer than I've been going.

The fans are not the reason we are in this position. The board have made a complete mess of it and any protest in or out of the ground is fair enough as long as it isn't aimed at the players.
