Would they though ? Fenty didn’t get much excrement in all the years of failure he presided over us are they so different to us ?


To be fair to Swan even when he was backing them with big money the fans never turned up.

I'm led to believe that their chief scout is Swann's son.


He is. When he was appointed they made the point by saying he was the manager's pick, not the chairman's. There's another Swann (not sure if it's the same one) in the boardroom too.

Think they would be better off with Lord Baden Powell.

Amazed we avoided nepotism considering cronyism was alive and well at the club. Maybe Fenty didn't have any kids who wanted anything to do with it.

What they need is a partnership of new owners and a experienced manager............



Fenty, May & Holloway.        


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

I find it most amusing that during a recent interview,
when the questioner asked him of his thoughts about
the changes at Grimsby, Swann's reply was and I quote,
" Don't you dare put me in the same category as Fenty,
I am a completely different character .

Make what you like of that.
