Fenty isn’t going anywhere and therein lies the long term problem. People have a right to be excited about Holloway, not everyone shares the excitement, some are reserving judgment, again that is their right but I don’t see Fenty going anywhere and that’s what worries me.
Regardless of whatever managerial appointment is made I see the chance of zero progress away from the 11 players ever happening. It hasn’t happened yet, in the length of his tenure, and when big things were happening, he was instrumental is stopping it. That contempt for fans, arrogance from board members and inward vision hasn’t just disappeared with one managerial appointment. Still work to be done and for the club to move forward Fenty has to go.
In the mean time, people are happy there’s some positive stuff to be cheerful about and ultimately, the first job is to drag ourselves out of a relegation scrap and stop playing like an average conference side...

Big difference now though isn't there?.. Holloway has a seat on the board so JSF won't be getting everything his own way like he has for the last 16 years...now he'll have someone telling him to "shut up"...can't see Holloway taking any of Fentys bull and hopefully his influence will drag this club, kicking and screaming into the 21st century!!..

Really surprised to see he’s put £100k in, which would make him 4th largest shareholder behind Fenty, Parker & The Trust? Do the Mullens still hold their shares (over £110k worth in 2018 )? https://www.bristolpost.co.uk/.....tter_impression=trueAs above, you’d hope that as someone with experience of the day-to-day at clubs significantly more advanced than us, Holloway would be a voice in the boardroom pushing for change that might get listened to.

Perhaps he was just bored and wanted a challenge. Seems the type who doesn't let the grass grow.
This seems the most reasonable conspiracy theory for me on why he's come to us.

Fenty 43% Mike Parker has £500,000 (22%) The Trust has £320,550 (14%) The Mullens have £130,000 (6%) shares John Elsom £75,500 (3%) Andrew Newman has £25,000 (1%) worth of shares. (dodgy ticket tout?)

Let's way up his risks,
Rented out his house down South, decent income and property down there accelerating every year price wise.
Decent salary here and rent free accommodation.
Shares in the club than can be sold if/when required
Interesting new job, and change of scenery for wife.
If it goes mammaries up, no loss.
If successful will be the darling of Grimsby and the media

Hmmmm Rent free accommodation ? Really ??? Decent Salary ?? Well documented that he will probably be on less than he earns after dinner speaking and media work (all of which he has stated he will be giving up( Shares in the club to be sold if/when required. I don't expect massive queues of investors starting a bidding war in GTFC any time shortly !! Interesting new job - Agree. Change of scenery ? I was born and bred here and am proud of the fact. But I'm not so proud that I imagine it to be a game changer when looking for a job !!!!!! IF it goes mammaries up he has lost precious time he could be spending with his children/grandchildren back in Brizzle. But yes, if he gets it right he will be the hero of the area. And rightly so IMO. And it's weigh up !!!! UTM

| The wife was going away for a girly weekend. I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

Thought in his interviews he was putting his house up for sale hence his daughter had to find somewhere else to live. Clearly he needs to rent a property whilst sale progresses but I have heard nothing to suggest he will only be here for 18 months, results permitting!!!

30 more through the gate twice a month would easily fund his rent up here

Really substantial shareholding. It points to more changes in the boardroom. That’s nearly half the money Fenty will pull out in his yearly loan repayments Great news If it goes well, imagine if it goes badly, how do you sack him?
