just out of interest, why on earth would Fenty want to spend time in Belarus? is he studying 'how to be a leader like Alexander Lukashenko' coz i can see certain similarities in leadership styles and abilities!?



It could be completely wrong but I heard his wife/partner is from there.

This thread's going a bit off topic isn't it? Don't think it's fair all this talk about JF's private life on here. Professional performance fair game, but I think talking about his family etc is a bit off..

But there is a vast difference between Lukashenko and JF.  Under AL's leadership Belarus is prospering and GTFC under JF's leadership  we are stagnant but would agree leadership styles are similar, it's the ability that's light years apart.

intercourse the exiles. They have left and contribute nothing to the area. Why should they get special treatment from the club?


I am not looking for special treatment from the club - far from it. I have been to BP c2500 times over the years and watched hundreds of town away games and the club will have benefitted and continue to do so. I would be more than happy to contribute to any fund that would realistically progress the club from its recent years of suffering. Just because circumstances dictate that we move away does not make us any less black and white.


I would hope that GTFC fans wherever they are would work towards the needed improvement and not turn on each other.

If you went 25 times a year, that's a 100 years... Unless you work there of course, I think you are telling porkies.

I attended most home games between the age of 9 and 39 so that would be

Say 20 games for 30 years  = 600

PLUS  about 25 games between the age of 7 and 8,

Plus   another 125 ish in the last 32 years while living in Suffolk,

That makes a total of 750 homes games and  while living down here nomally spend £30 to £40  in the club shop

So I have paid loads of money into club over the years .

BUT

I do not want my money back  

IT would be intresting to know how many games a certain non chairman has attended games free over the years and the said sum should be deducted off his loans.

Oops sorry - maths not good - you can tell I am getting old. However sentiment is still the same. In fifties and sixties there was a home game every week on Saturdays and first and reserve games mid week so easy to clock up 40+ games a season. Certainly 1000+ is an absolute minimum.
