I’m not sure administration is aspirational 😉


Time machine back to 2002 with the hindsight of the past 17 years, I'm pretty sure it could

Quoted from Marinerz93


Clubs who have been at the foot of the football league for generations, how can you lump us in with those.


Well seeing as a generation is usually classed as thirty years then that is a sweeping statement. As a point of interest , not that it will strengthen your point , just check out the 1968/69 season. Town finished second to bottom in Division 4. Also in the same league were Bradford Park Avenue, York City, Chesterfield, Aldershot, Chester, Workington, Wrexham, Darlington and Halifax. So 50  years ago we were in the same league as now , in such auspicious company and no JF to blame for our predicament.  Go back to 1954/55 season when we finished second to bottom in Division 3 (N). No Division 4 then so we effectivley finished joint second in the FL.  Of the 24 teams in that league 14 are now non-league.Yes we were "lumped " in with those teams 64 years ago. Fans seem to forget that our history in the time I have been alive (71 years) is not as illustrious and great as they seem to think. These are also times when no Director or Chairman would have stepped into the breach to save the club with loans (benign or otherwise ) or gifts to keep the club going.

For all Fentys mistakes he’s kept our pride . He’s run Gtfc like clubs at our level should be run . It’s ok saying football clubs aren’t like normal businesses but at our level they are . If they’re not run sustainably they’ll go bust and no one outside Lincolnshire cares if we go .
Just ask Bolton . A much bigger club who are looking over the abyss after years of mis management


Pride?

Out of interest, if there are any clever accountants out there, could Fenty be using his loan to the club as a tax break on his personal accounts?

So you know for sure that if we had gone bust then we would have been better off by now! Now that is a crass statement .


No but good chance
