I imagine his legal team will be racking up the overtime reading that.


Do you think? I only read it briefly yesterday but it came across as a compilation of events reported by the Telegraph over the years rather than any new or unfounded accusations.

If his legal team do contact CA, then I presume each an every point will be replied to with a valid source.

I love a box set.
Does this series have a happy ending ?

This was my view, nothing there that isn’t publicly available. Pure facts, no flannel or opinion...although given what we know about Honest John I’d imagine he’ll still believe it’s all lies...

If I’m honest, I read it and just found myself nodding and simply realising that my opinion of the man has never really changed, perhaps gotten worse...

Some of the stuff about the wranglings in the board room 20 years ago sound more like they’re from Shareholder meetings or AGMs. The GPE of thing that doesn’t get minuted.  I’d be interested interested in how those bits were sourced.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Word of mouth, Grimsby is a small place and I guess CA have made it clear that they’re not saying it’s fact; merely offering a written narrative and one mans musings of the debacle that was John Fenty and Grimsby Town FC.

Plenty of people locally to offer stories and comments about Fenty that they’ve no reason to make up...woman I work with isn’t a town fan, nobody in her family is either, her, along with her dad despise the man for many a reason...nothing to do with his ineptitude at running a football team...

Oh I get that Aldi. The greatest tell I ever witnessed was when he made that comment about his scratched car at the fans forum, not 12 feet from me.

It’d be nice that the early stuff referenced was similarly witnessed by a number of people. Just to make sure the man keeps his “Getyourfactsright” trap shut on it.

Weird isn’t it, my opinion of him was very low before that comment but I was there that night and the way he said it and the reasons just told me even more. From that point I was done with him...
