Lessons learned

Quoted from Civvy at last

Yeah, it’s not as if any businessman would invest 1 million before walking away. So I guess what we need is a lottery winner to invest.

Oh, hang on ........

And if anyone is prepared to buy my house for not only the market value, but also pay for all the bills I’ve paid since  being in it coz I want that back as well, I’ll give them JF’s e-mail address. 😄

Face it, there isn't anyone out there. I don't think

Unless you know different?

The club has 140 years of history. There are people with money who are and have been interested in the club. The loans and shares make it a 3million plus purchase which is absolutely ridiculous.

Fenty needs to publically make clear whether he is willing write his loans off (not just in his head) and whether he wants to retain any involvnent in the club.

Both of these things are rumoured to put people off and have never been clarified.

I don’t know different for sure. But I’m pretty certain virtually   no-one would be prepared to pay for Fenty’s mistakes.
We keep going round in circles with this one. JF keeps telling the world he wants to walk away.  But won’t publicly name his price. So although (as far as we know) there are no realistic bidders, we don’t know the asking price.  If it’s not realistic, he can tell the world the club is for sale, knowing full well no-one will buy it.  Two people have recently walked away despite investing in GTFC. So yes, I do believe there are people out there that would invest. Just not while JF is in control
and nothing to do with the toxic fans as ‘Mr Shutup’ would have us believe. !!!

Civvy mate
I 100% agree it has nothing to do with the fans, who as always have been a credit to the club and I was at the forum when Mr Shutup had his say, which was unforgivable.
However, I am frightened more that any vacuum left by JF will be more dangerous than him staying, hence my original post of learning from this mess and moving forward together as has been the mantra of MJ since his arrival and so far it has been working.
A new and early budget in the summer will be essential for him to mount any serious assault.

We wait to see if such lessons have been learned.

Fingers crossed

What vacuum? Unless JF gives away his shareholding & writes off his loans, there won't be a vacuum and I can't see either of those happening, let alone both.

I think that sums up perfectly the differing views of the fans.

Some are so worried about change that they prefer to stick whilst others want change because they believe things should have been, and will be, so much better without John Fenty.

IMO £3 million isn't a ridiculous price for a league club with the potential GTFC has, if run properly.

Why doesn't JF run it properly then and unlock this potential?

This is what (well one of the things) that bugs me. He is in the enviable position of being in sole control of a football league club with, as you say, real potential but does nothing with it. No investment on or off the field and continually fighting fires is not the way to give yourself a chance of getting your money back or making us more marketable.

Are you buying 100% of the club or Mr Fenty's 43%?
