A relatively well-off person tries to use people poorer than him - a community asset - to get richer.
We've seen it first-hand at Grimsby Town and we're also seeing it in the shower of excrement that run this country - squeezing the life out of ordinary citizens for personal gain.
Fenty doesn't bleed black and white, he bleeds blue.

Can we forget about Fenty, I don't see the point in having ANY thread at all to do with him?

It's very hard to forget him when he still has a big influence on the club; in so far as he gets all the money from transfers which could be reinvested in the club. This came out of the woodwork only a few days ago and you do have to wonder if there are other events in the offing to promote his bank a/c that we do not know about. Many words have been offered on this site to describe him but I don't know of any that have not been used to describe his contempt for the fans or club by a so called fan and supporter.

Because the twit is still bleeding the club dry from afar. He's the sole reason our budget is restricted this year and that we're not enjoying the financial benefit from the sale of Grist and Pollock. Without him we'd have around £500k extra to play with, be it on wages, transfer fees, facilities, staff..... 6 years ago fans raised a quarter of that to boost the budget and it went a long way towards achieving promotion. Imagine what we could have done with that money? That's why he's still (unfortunately) relevant and people still talk about him.

I get the frustration but the chair has already said money in doesn’t necessarily equal money out in terms of transfer budget. If Hurst goes to the board for a transfer it will be looked at regardless of what the club has received (and given to Fenty) over the summer.
Anyone that got their hopes up thinking we would reinvest half a million back in to the squad in transfer fees… well I’m sorry but you shouldn’t have regardless of the agreement that was put in place. That agreement btw that the chair seems to have little issue with. It was non-negotiable and if it means that the bloke is paid off sooner then it’s not the worst thing in the world.
Fenty is thankfully gone and we seem to have ourselves some good people running the club at last. It is difficult to forget but it really is time to move on now.

TBF JF is not the devil incarnate. He took on a role for which he did not have the skill set nor intellect for. When it all got too much for him, and GTFC started going to excrement and his cash reserve started dwindling, he wanted out. Then is when he started with the penny pinching and tantrums. He just did not have what it takes to cope. As a result he kept GTFC on life support without investing to cure and repair the ills. Now he has seen his bottom and has taken his ball back home. Evil? no Stupid, naïve, petulant, deluded and a complete knob? yes absolutely.

Have you read the series of articles on Cod Almighty? No one is saying he is the devil incarnate. But the naive, petulant, knob doesn’t cover it. He engineered the situation where he was in control of the club, and took money out. His malapropisms probably made him seem more benign than he was.

So what's your explanation of a 'Stupid, naïve, petulant, deluded' man taking £200K in shares from the supporter's trust. I suppose you want us to believe he didn't intend to do that.
