Shutes is not taking over he would of done by now the club should be sold for a pound.
And JF knows it if attendances keep dropping really what is the club worth.
The trust should buy it and offer Fenty £ 500 000 paid back over 10 years.
And he doesn’t deserve that.
It could be viable as a community run club.

I realy cannot see the point in having a new tin mish stadium with no soul and nothing in, under, by it to bring money in to the club so we do not have to rely on just gate money. And i thought that was a big part of having a new ground.. So many times it has been said that freemo is not a big enough site for what we need to generate funds.. I am not against freemo, but i fail to see how it will make us any better off. no one is going to come in and throw money at us . we need better training areas not the ploggers type thing we have now . we need to own in built shops restaurants , leisure facilitys etc to generate cash or it is a waste of time in my view.
So you think we shoulder just exist on gate money, player sales and sponsorship? That is a very narrow commercial route to follow and I'm no financial expert. So when we get a dip in form and the gates suffer, what makes up the shortfall? Of course you mean some rich benefactor to put money into the club as and when, just to keep the club going on your behalf. |

I think you miss understand what i ment.. let me put it simpler......a new ground on its own will not help cash flow to put in too players ,, we need the extras ie shops sports facilitys to bring in extra income |

I was having a chat with someone a few weeks back who I'd never met before. He's involved in some regeneration project over Halifax way and mentioned the name Shutes. We spent the next few minutes making sure we were talking about the same guy.
I don't think Grimsby is his only interest - or maybe it is, and he's either realised Fenty won't sell or he can't satisfy his request for proof of funds so he's going elsewhere.
I have a funny feeling this is going nowhere.

Didn't Mr Fenty say they had already agreed on the price !?! |

Hopefully the new ground would incorporate shops, better conference facilities and some kind of training/gym set up. These are the "non game" income streams that we need. The construction of the stadium and some of it's surroundings could include these. I think every statement from the club concerning the new ground has emphasised the need for non match income streams to help fund the club. |
