What the hell are you banging on about? We had a hung council with nobody who had any desire to push this through, and many who were firmly against it. Now we have a conservative council with a regeneration officer that wants to build a new stadium. The overall council might not do anything, but a Grimsby Town fan with no conflict of interest in a position to influence this is clearly an advantage of getting a new stadium. Are you actually that blind with hate that you can't see this?


I like you when you get angry

Not at all, some businesses and people hammer social media engagement whereas some business people and industries have absolutely no need to, going quietly about their activities through more traditional methods. I've no knowledge of his operations but perhaps the fronts of his his endeavours are broadcast without the limelight being shone on the power behinfmd the throne.

Nothing new there, I couldn't tell you who owns Adidas etc etc


You're missing the point. There's keeping a low profile and then there's keeping a profile to the point of there being absolutely nothing about the guy on Google...

Why would you want the World knowing your business though? Look at Fenty gets a few quid buys a car like most people with a few quid and gets pilloried by the oiks on here for flaunting his wealth . I would rather keep a low profile and do without the hassle.

Only me that finds it completely bizarre how little there is of Tom Shutes online (bar this link)? There's being private and then there's being a digital ghost...

If he's so private - why does he want to buy a Football Club where scrutiny is unlike any other business?


What even a club that’s been down on its heels for decades located in an isolated backwater with a poor reputation?

If Shutes does come in for the club other than the GET I would doubt it would make column inches elsewhere.

The fact that little is known about him and he appears to keep a low profile would be a refreshing change from the constant media gaffs and unfulfilled promises we’ve had to endure for the last 20 odd years.

And just to add I work for a market leading company that has interests throughout Europe, China, Australia and NZ. It’s still a family owned company where the owners work with their employees every day, they are billionaires but you wouldn’t notice them if you passed them in the street.

Having an on line profile means nothing in terms of being effective in business.

Anything is better than swinging around a pole in a Cleethorpes nightclub!
