As professional investors I suspect from the oblique references they've made, that they have zero respect for fenty. I bet if we played fenty bingo ' ignorant, amateur  small town, small fry' would be high on the list

Liked the barb at 7 mins in. New directors will come in for talent or expertise they will bring, not a mates club!!
Staff have been told theyve got a chance to shine if they share and embrace the vision. Obviously you could read that as it's our way or the high way. Noticeable lack of praise or even mention for the present CEO.suspect hes toast unless he displays previously unseen levels of vision, imagination and ability in the next few weeks

my favourite today has been..." this is not a financial based investment for us....because it would be a bad one".... says it all.

Also regarding the fact they arent immediately looking at a new ground until they would be convinced its sustainable, that to me also speaks volumes, it maybe is a smack in the face given the promises of the last board/ owner but i think its a sign they feel confident enough that they can generate additional income, finance, profit exactly where we are for the time being with their plans.

Already seeing the value in expenditure on things which previous regime didnt, new playing surfaces, backroom staff and technology/ infrastructure...things which dont scream "immediate return" on expenditure but are foundations to improve long term.

Good day.

They said that things had been "over promised" regarding a new ground. Quite!

What was also apparent is them saying that they are not football people, so will look to employ people that are, to take care of that side of things, and they will concentrate on what they are good at. How many years have we been saying that we needed someone in the club who knew football, not just how to balance the books?

There seems to be no artifice with the pair and you wouldn't know they were multi millionaires to look at them.

What I like the most about  these two, is the fact that they admit they don't know anything about running a professional football club, so they have brought in an expert in the field, at their own expense, to help sort out the mess that they have inherited. He has a big job on his hands.

These two are miles in front...even the language they use.

I shed a tear as I realised we can no longer play Fenty bingo...

Sounds like any potential future investors will have to bring in personal money, not benign loans or dodgy deals.

Any new shareholders to be personally vetted for skills and acumen as well as their cash?

These guys seem to know and fully grasp that they will need a 7 day use community stadium with ways to bring in continual income on non match days, hence no swift promises.

Wouldn't surprise me to see an offshore eco / renewables energy link as part of a docks development as the stadium location.
