He wasn't up for election this time round!


Well a Tory clean sweep locally and with the public outrage regarding the Tollbar Roundabout and JF being a fierce critic of the plans he would have been nailed on to get the vote.

If the Freemo stadium does not happen,  future generations will look back and wonder what on earth the club and council were thinking.

*Within walking distance of a densely populated area;

*Frequent bus service, only a short ride from Freshney Place car park;

*Link to A180 at Riby Square, so away fans can get in and out of town quickly;

*Grimsby Docks station convenient for fans that live along the Barton Line.

Totally agree. I reckon it's the ideal site. Would regenerate Freeman Street and be a massive boost to the pubs down there, plus there isn't THAT much residential housing around there now really.

Of course it was going to be, did Fenty say otherwise? It doesn't mean that it won't be of any benefit. It's a different party in control and one that thinks highly enough of JF to put him in a high position. The article mentions that the leader sees a community stadium as beneficial to the area.

Still a lot of hurdles to go before anything even starts to happen, but I'm more optimistic with a new council than what's been going on the last 20 years with the previous councils.

Quoted from Gaffer58
So, the majority on here think Mr Fenty had no clue when it comes to running a football club, the amount of comments about us stagnating for the last 20 years, season ticket initiative, of lack off, yet somehow he is deemed to have the qualities to be deputy leader of the council.

Past experience tells us what happens.


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.
