Quoted from MuddyWaters
Nick Dale isn’t losing his job, stadium has improved substantially under his tenure. Takeover still possible but no proof of funds. This raises a simple question- when you’re selling something, isn’t proof of funds one of the first things you check?


Disappointing but then again we are used to it with Fenty.

Shame Fenty had to say that. The guy has no filter. He lacks emotion and is totally driven by money.

He also doesn't have much of a memory because, if mine's correct, he hauled poor old John McDermott over the coals to get him playing for pretty much nothing when he'd achieved legendary status.

Its probably that the price is too high. Nobody is going to pay Fenty what he thinks he is owed  after 18 years of failure.


If he hasn`t got enough to part with 2-3M maximum to buy the Club then he probably isn`t what we need unless he has loads of other investors?

So what is the big hold up with the Takeover???

Is Shutes messing around??
Is it Fenty putting unreasonable conditions in place? (Lifetime director, 100% everything he has ever put in, Statue outside the new ground

From the outside, it certainly doesn’t look likely anymore!!

GTFC, probs me wrong, PLEASE!!!!

I would imagine it`s like you say a bit of allsorts but for the good of the Club the last week has served as a timely reminder why we need rid of Fenty and I wish more had voted with there feet regards Season tickets. FENTY OUT

Of course it could be argued that the fewer season tickets are sold would make he club less attractive to a future investor. It's ok some fans seeing this as a means of forcing the issue but future buyers/investors just look at balance sheets.

Quoted from MuddyWaters


Something along the lines of “he hauled us over the coals over an extension “ - just another cliche in four and a half minutes of cliches.


My thoughts exactly. A cliche in every sentence. He sounds bored and churlish, the countdown to Fexit goes on and my celebratory bottle remains on ice.
Can't come quickly enough.

Well then they will be no better than the current owner that`s what he does . Whilst Fenty has many faults he has done a great job in regards to the budget and staying within means my main gripe in regards to that is he constantly fails to recognise the need for change which would increase gates. As a fan I dont see what else I can do to show my dissatisfaction with him and his regime I don`t like the idea of protests at games which would affect the players so a drop in ST sales will send him a message alright.
