The question is ' how much has he put into the club to keep it afloat '? Before I'm accused of being. ' "up JF's bottom " I think he should go but nobody has been prepared to step up to the plate (and I don't think Mike Parker was that committed otherwise he would have stood up to JF when the situation arose). It seems to me that a lot of "fans " on this site want some kind of "cash cow " on the board so they can watch top quality football as long as they don't have to pay for it.
The word “invested” does not describe what most board members of L2 clubs do when they put money in. “Invested” tends to suggest you get a return on your money which for L2 clubs is highly unlikely. Why would we see a change of ownership at 50 points as even though we’re a couple short we’re not going down. New owners would prefer as long as possible to prep for next season. Bit naughty by CAM in my view but then again you have to keep readers interested.

Are you saying that anyone who invests in GTFC is an idiot and whoever owns the club is just " throwing their money away "?
Errrrr, yes basically and anyone daft enough to invest and then want his money back will be slagged off unmercifully.

For felicitations sake we are always bitching about how much he is already owed by the club and how it is preventing a sale. If he invests even more that only makes it worse.
We are never going to get some total idiot with more money than sense who is prepared to just throw money away on GTFC, whoever takes over will be no different to Fenty (other than a bit richer perhaps)
Make your mind up please!
I know you sometimes like to come over as a twit but no need to be a dumb fornicator as well. I'm not bitching about anything, just asking the question is he actually investing in the club this season or not.

It wasn’t an investment remember it was a “loan” two different things but I do agree with you Ipswin don’t put money into a lower league club and expect it back.

Fenty said himself at the Q+ A the board thought he should take the money out as it might be putting off investors. John's own words. So at that rate John should have his all his money back in ten years.

In reality Marley & Day aren’t going to say anything differently are they? Maybe we need to relocate to a Town with a 450k+ populalation near a major metropolitan city with public transport infrastructure , no unemployment and a local government that wants to put money into its only local professional sports club. The Fenty loans don’t help I’m sure but rhe prospect of investing in a club with limited attendance appeal, a decrepit home in a relatively remote deprived location has just as big an impact I’m sure.

I heard that bloke who currently owns Charlton is interested if he can sell Charlton first, hes got loadsa money!
May be some truth in this as current director told my mate there is a very interested party that is London based. Second time he has hinted that the club may be sold so we will just have to wait and see, always a bit of intrigue whenever investment in town is the topic of discussion.

You were, as many do, trying score a point yet again against Fenty by suggesting that he hasn't invested any money in the club this season. As another poster points out the term 'invest' infers at least a repayment if not a profit which is why I said that no one in his right mind is going to 'invest' in Grimsby Town Football Club Actually he hasn't 'invested' anything at all in the strictest sense of the word over the years but he has supported the club, as an investor would, by putting a lot of money in, not expecting a profit, but always getting criticism when he simply wants repayment

No please! I was just taking the urine after hearing him absolutely torn up for arsepaper on Talksport by the former Palace owner (he's Belgium based anyway thank intercourse)
