Mariners Trust Open Evening

Well done to all involved. Wish I had gone.

Good to see fan engagement working and most of the news seems positive.

It went well, a lot of questions got answered, yet I still see it flying around social media etc of 'fans' trying their hardest to shoot down Fenty, when in fact, last night was very good of him IMO, he doesn't need to do these events, and for me, I thank him for last night for attending, and answering the questions people wanted answering

Also well done to the Trust for organising a well planned night

There’s a middlebground to be found between that and your overly-deferential attitude towards him.

These things should be the absolute bare minimum that he does in terms of engagement, plus actually acting on what people have asked to see.

My point is, he is portrayed as being the worst owner in the EFL etc etc, when he really isn't.

I want new owners to push us on to the next level, but we haven't been sold yet for all the right reasons.

Some owners out there attend, 2-3 games a season, and don't give a toss.
Fenty is a Grimsby fan, and wants the best for the club, and whilst i don't agree with certain aspects of the way the club has been run over the past 7-8 years or whatever people see it as. He has also been the victim of abuse, some probably warranted, over recent years, yet still comes out and answers the fans questions

Whilst I applaud him taking time to do last night, you simply can’t ignore the last fans forum, the comments about Operation Promotion and the worst period in the clubs history. There’s a middle ground out there somewhere but finding it should be the boards prerogative not Michael Jolleys.

Just a thought, will the trust be summarising the meeting with the key learning points?

Quoted from pizzzza

Think you needed to submit questions  before the event not after.

I knew it had already been submitted as a question so don’t be a cocky tw@t

As someone who worked voluntarily for about 50 hours a week during and after Operation Promotion I was upset with the remarks about it...but a year on I've moved on which begs the question why can't others? I'd prefer to look to the future working with the club under the Memorandum of Understanding to the benefit hopefully of all supporters of GTFC.

Exactly!

Stuff happen, things move on.

P.s them 50 hours a week you put in are all worth it now!
