Quoted from Southwark Mariner


so in one week he'd have a 21 year contract!


And towards the end of the contract Mr Fenty still keeps banging on about relocating to Peaks Parkway  



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Quoted from Mikey_345
Whilst I understand the merits of rolling contracts they do nothing to a) show potential staff and players proper backing of the man in charge or b) put off would be suitors.

I’d give him a 3 year deal everyday if the week. If it goes wrong that’s the risk you take, well worth it though.


Totally agree with this - MJ has transformed the most important part of the club and we are playing Grimsby Town football again. People talk about 'risk & reward' - everyone saw MJ as a risk and he's now proving to have been a risk worth taking. Time the board rewarded him with a longer deal, not only for his benefit but to protect themselves from other clubs who will soon begin to notice the effect he's having.

But maybe MJ likes the flexibility he has with his present rolling contract? We don't know what kind of conversations MJ has with JF and for all we know the subject might have already been raised.

Technically you're right, but some how you're missing something. Unless you know something we don't?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Well, personally I wouldn't be too impressed if another club came & poached him, Anthony or both on the cheap.
