No point trying to decipher the truth from the words of two businessmen playing games with each other. Shutes in theory was exactly what we needed but whether his imagination could be translated to tangible progression is immaterial now.
I've become quite tired of supporting Town's monotony but the current priority must be about survival above all else, and that means relying on our very experienced manager to find us something out of nothing.
That said, we're heading into the start of competitive fixtures in no shape at all: one friendly played; most new signings playing professional football for the first time; two central midfielders on the books - one of them being a fresh academy graduate. Is everyone else in the same boat? The League 2 signings thread suggests other clubs are much better prepared than we are. Is that because they're risking too much? Will they end up in trouble by next year?
Who knows. If we didn't have Holloway I'd be extremely worried. At least I can watch from behind the sofa this year.

I think all this needs to be put to bed for now. We need to all be united as one while the world is still on its head battling covid 19. Lets just concentrate on getting though this and still having a club to support at the end of it all.

I doubt we'll ever get to see the facts, but the story I was told is very different to what your "source" says. Probably should not post things where you're just repeating somebody else's words, who may well have made them up just because he doesn't like Fenty. There's enough of those about already.
The hate issues Fenty are your own doing so don’t use this forum for complaining as you need to lay in the bed that you made! And I presume that it’s you John that complained and had my post removed. Please someone tell me why John Fenty is running and controlling a fans message board? This man is a complete and utter bully and his dictatorship over this board is a prime example of that. My source was part of the process of the Shutes bid so I would say that the information is very accurate. Shutes and his collective have demonstrated a little bit of class by not going to the press and having a slagging off match with Fenty and I for one respect that.

Oh dear. Can see 1 or 2 people getting threatening emails / private messages. Grim Rob and his mate really dont like these stories/ rumours being spread about our glorious non supremo
Yep I’ve had mine, unfortunately for GrimRob I stand by my post as factual as my source is solid! So let it stand GrimRob or allow JF to continue to run this board and remove me. I don’t need to name my source nor should I have to on a public forum. If JF thinks it’s a lie he can email me with a threatening solicitor letter as I know it’s true and stand by the information posted.

Nobody complained. The fact that you jump to the conclusion that someone did and even identify people who might have done shows how desperate you are to see demons everywhere. As I have said to you, publish your allegations in your own name elsewhere and I am more than happy for a link to them to go on the forum.

A growing number of supporters already realise the demon that we have running the club and there’s nothing desperate about that! A supporters board is for speculation, fans opinions and rumours / information that we have all heard.

No idea what has been said by SDUTM but whether a deal had been agreed between Shutes and Fenty or not.
The outcome was Ollie came on the scene and that changed things.
I for one would have been happy if Shutes took over.
BUT
I am more than happy having Ollie here and on the board.

I agree that Ollie has most definitely had a very positive effect on the club however he has a very difficult task right and and I most definitely support and applaud his efforts.
