Fenty needs to go for the sake of the Club he says he loves.
Yet again his mismanagement, lack of foresight, lack of investment and most of all lack of ambition are killing this club.
The lack of foresight in handling this C19 excrement is inept to say the least.

He is the cancer inside the club


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

You've just hit the nail on the head
Fentys record of failure never changes.

All you apologists for Fenty make me excrement

What is his end game? Is he staying in the deluded opinion that his management of the club will allow him to be paid back, in full, quicker than if he severed all ties? I think he would find that if he announced he was leaving completely, with a realistic figure he is owed agreed then the club would start to recover quickly and he would get his money back sooner than expected.

He is not putting investment in is he? We are told he is taking money out each year, so in order to be paid back his only solution seems to be bear down on costs so he is effectively strangling the life out of the club, still calling all the shots in order to get repaid, but seemingly taking nothing into account regarding his mistakes that have cost the club millions.

If we go on like this it will take several years to pay him off. Nice work for him, but a disaster for us.

The board should be looking at alternative ways for him to end his tenure so we can start the recovery process because as the original poster said he is killing the club from within.

I’d rather not have to put the record on. Aren’t you fed up of the same excrement record after 17 years of pure, unadulterated mediocrity?

We lose 5 - 0 away where 16 of the 30 odd man squad play really badly, look paralysed by fear and don’t have the confidence to pass the ball forward.

The fans dredge up the same old same old about the major shareholder, maybe the anger should be aimed at those closer to yesterday’s starting 11.

Devils advocate here but.....has he not effectively gone officially?
Not sure on company law etc but does majority shareholder actually entitle him to make decisions ?  Have a say as a board member yes...but actually dictate?
The only thing keeping his say as important as it is is the fact he will underwrite agreed losses as an individual ...something the rest of the board wont/ cant.
Yes he has outstanding loans....but If someone else would underwrite any ongoing/ future annual losses....(which we seem to pretty much avoid nowadays anyway) then his say is less important isnt it ?
If we dont have the money to pay his loans back then he cant cash them back in and if doing so made us insolvent then he would only get a percentage wouldn't he?

The current set up means that, even if he isn’t as involved as in the past, his financial interests will always be the elephant in the room. Ollies pre match interview even mentioned a meeting the day before with John andPhilip.
