Doesn't Glanford Park have closed corners?


Yes, but that's to keep their fan in until the end of the game.

Anyway would you like a view of Scunthorpe through the corners?

Ffs please stop bringing this thread up the man is wasting time and just mudding the water


Didn't Mr Fenty say he had been in dialogue with Shutes for two years? Un-fcuking-believable, when there is a STADIUM-SIZED PLOT OF LAND AT FREEMAN STREET. What does he have against Freemo anyway?

You must be funny in the head if you think disjointed, antiquated Blundell Park is better than Shrewsbury or Colchester's stadium. I bet the people saying that sit at the top of the Findus, gazing at the estuary.

Thing is, we don’t actually know that it’s Shutes dragging his heels...the club can say what they want but who’s to say it’s not them dragging their heels?

The main man wants out, if he had received a suitable hard cash offer he would be gone wouldn't he ?  I cannot remember Fenty or the board dismissing Shutes bid, plans or proposed takeover as outright poppycock but just that there has never been proof of funds to complete the transaction.
That indicates to me that what he has said to the board is of interest and plausible enough to happen....if the money is delivered or at least gauranteed.

The club have now said they have closed the doors on Shutes anyway havnt they ?  as he hasnt come up with the goods and they were going to be forging ahead under their own steam before the Covid crisis kicked in.

Regardless, the only outcome now is that we arent going to be in a new ground anytime soon, certainly not in time for our Championship bow in what is it now......just 2yrs time ?

What I’ve heard is that funds were shown but Mr Fenty just dismisses them.Also heard that Mr Fenty wanted to stay on but the proposed new owners wanted him gone.All through the talks he kept changing the deal.ASK HIM

We will never get Shutes’ side of the story because he’s rightly keeping his cards to his chest...in reality, whatever the truth, we’ll only ever get the clubs public view.

Fenty has always said he wants out yet he has seemingly put stipulations or obstacles in the way which have been sold as reassurances for the club.

For me something doesn’t add up but we’re unlikely to ever find out. I don’t see Fenty and his chums going anywhere and perhaps that is the reason he has never sold because a buyer wants rid of the deadwood and fresh ideas...

Who knows...I just can’t see either a new ground or owner any time soon...

That was until Holloway came in. The sniff of success is a scent too delicious to pass up on.

I dont think you're allowed to say that sort of thing  you can post rumours  about almost anything, but god forbid that you disparage our glorious non leader. You can expect a p.m. demanding an apology.....

I think you will find that you can say what you want providing you can back it up with facts and not just hearsay. Sadly most posts about our non-leader are hearsay or assumptions such as "I've heard...."
