I wondered if anybody else read JF in the GL :-

"One side note is that the Mariners will be stopping along the way to Maidenhead on Friday for training – will Hurst be doing a bit of shopping for a new striker while on their travels?"

If they traveled to Maidenhead today it must mean that they are staying overnight. I always thought that this sort of journey was done on matchday morning; as opposed to the Torquay/Eastleigh's etc.

It looks like the club is extending the new culture in a very professional way.

Saw this earlier and thought this probably wouldn’t have happened under the previous regime. I say ‘probably’, it just wouldn’t.

Instead of spending on big names, it looks like Town are spending more wisely, prematch preparation for away games.

You are quite correct Poojah, it would never have happened in the last 17 years.

When did fancy training pitches surrounded by trees get you 3 points on a Saturday?

Interesting that this sort of preparation was one of the reasons Hurst left in the first place.

Met with Hurst a few times, whislt he was here first time and after; we all remember the typical 1-0 away win at Cambridge…apparently Hurst had asked Warrington to take the mini bus with balls etc forms light session pre game on a park in Cambridge given there’s little space at the ground for proper warm up etc.

On the Monday, Fenty nipped in as he always did to see him, never mentioned the result and just moaned about the bus being used etc…I’m sure Fenty’s chums will argue the truth but it’s a flipping weird thing for Hurst to make up.

This is the sort of investment we’ve always spoken about…sadly the previous regime just assumed that investment meant cash…this isn’t just about money, it’s effort, desire and investment in the squad, developing them and preparing properly for games.

It won’t always work but with results being super important, it can’t do any harm..

Fail to prepare…..prepare to save money by scrimping

Why you crediting 1878 with this? John explained to us all last weekend that he's still funding the club.

Seriously though it's about preparing right. Doing this means staff don't have to get up at the crack of dawn to sit on a coach seizing up before a game.

Yes it costs money, but it gives our players a better chance of bringing back another 3 points.

I know this sort of thing didn’t happen under the previous regime. Ex players have told me. They even had to buy their own food. It’s a change for the better.

Don’t some talk a load of SH1T.

3 hours and above was always an overnight and to suggest the players were not fed by the club is just goulash.  

Every away game that was not overnight there would be a hotel stop with prematch meal. Anything different would be a managers deviation full stop.

There is one thing. No one needs to try and make you look and sound like a d1ck. You manage that on you own with continuing regularity. Goulash indeed. Try answering Poojah's questions if you insist coming on here. Personally I think it is very sad and pitiful.

Can we just end his account and ban his IP Rob?

We’ve had 17 years of him, about 17 too many. Brought nothing but misery to our club and seems to have no shame finishing 92/92 and relegating us twice.

Let’s just kick him out and be done with him. Hanging around like a bad smell.

Imagine having as much money as this cúnt and this is how you spend your Saturday afternoons. Not really what you’d expect from someone who was desperate to step away - arguing about coach trips on a Saturday afternoon.

Some people know more than you can handle. There were clearly corners cut on food and travel.

You’re not as disgracefully excrement as we’ve been under your long tortuous tenure without it being very wrong at the top. JF to blame for all of it, we’ve suffered so badly and you want us to form a line thanking you for last two disastrous decades.

Absolutely staggering. Look at how the new owners have turned the entire feeling of the club around with quick wins, and investment into the infrastructure. (Badly needed as you’ve let the ground rot, I hear the footballs at cheapside weren’t particularly round when the new owners turned up).

Anyway, I don’t know how you sleep at night. I genuinely think you believe you’ve done nothing wrong. To relegate a club of our size out of the football league TWICE and we know it could have been more times, is staggering and disgraceful in equal measure.

You seem to take very little to no blame at all. I don’t know how you dare show your face at Blundell Park.

You’ve had an easy ride, and the fans should take some blame for that. You should have been removed years ago, certainly in 2010.

You claim to have no interest in comments on Cod Almighty regarding financial mismanagement, bullying, underhanded tactics etc etc etc.

But one throwaway comment on here which you feel you actually could defend and your on iit like a tramp on chips.

Answer relevant questions or shut the fuk up.

7 days ago you wanted a rational debate, which I offered you. I didn't call you names etc. but asked you questions, which you have not answered. So hears the debate motions:-

It has been suggested that although John Fenty acquired £200k of trust shares in a legal manner, morally he no longer needs those shares so he should return £200k to the Trust.

The club has moved forward more in the few weeks 1878 have owned it than under your "ownership", so why do you feel you did more in the 17 years under your control.

£400k was received by the club for Youth development. 1878 says it didn't happen, why didn't it happen?

This fan base, of which you are a member, so please accept the debate.

Maybe you should donate 200k to cover the costs of meals or something?

You are a massive disappointment too many of us John .You had the best part of 20 years to get things right instead you got us relegated out the football league twice.Well done

Oh really John.....

Your tenure was a complete failure, an absolute shower of 💩!!

Let it go......you hate to see the new board doing so well and getting all the decisions you got wrong, right!!

Go and have a game of snooker in your turtle neck!!

Your rhetoric is just white noise now!!!

I have to say usually I wouldn`t want someone banning for expressing an opinion even if I strongly  disagreed with it .

However this poster clearly just wants to goad and antagonise the fanbase in anyway he can and try and create diversion whilst trying to stay relevant . Remember when he tried to shut down The Fishy? Give him a taste of his own medicine Rob tell him it`s gonna cost 200k to stay on this board.

This "dignified silence" is getting a lot louder.

It's always best to keep quiet and let people think you're an utterly classless moron than open your mouth and prove them correct

Go away John. You're not welcome.

Let him stay. He can always prove to be a buffer when PH comes under pressure. His moronic ramblings act as morbidly fascinating distraction.

Indeed they do..but after 17 or so years of it we don’t have to listen anymore. 👍

Town fans with facts and evidence highlighting how flipping incompetent and embarrassing that twonk was living rent free in his head…

John,

You mentioned that were willing to answer any questions people had last week in your rant.

After a weeks absence from this forum (in a posting capacity at least), you might not be aware that it has been moved to an area of the forum that sums up your failed reign: Non-football.

If you could answer some of the reasonable questions on that thread, many of us would be grateful.

Also, congratulations on achieving the most red crosses ever received with your drivel last weekend. You can put that award with the Spurs shirts.

You’re a fûcking joke Fenty. Claim you want a rational debate yet runaway (line your Bristolian leprechaun mate) from sensible questions. Then there’s the pages and pages of text on Cod Almighty  about your power grab and control of the club, but you say you haven’t and don’t want to read it. What are you scared of?

Until you have the decency to answer questions people have actually asked, fûck off back to the stone you’ve been hiding under.

The more I think about it thr more I’d like him to keep coming in here rambling and just generally being a moron…it just highlights more and more just how much of a buffoon he was and is.

He himself can’t manage to list anything like a range of successes of progressive moves made under his stewardship, instead he resorts to name calling, illiterate ramblings and denial of anything without an alternative perspective. He will have read Cod Almight’s articles because they’re essentially copy and paste jobs of information already available but have eloquently pieced together, sadly for John, he can’t do his usual and threaten some flimsy law suit because everything contained is fact.

The man is a walking example of irony and narcissism. Remember when we had spells of success under tenure (I say success lightly), he’d pop up with some nonsense, just to make sure it was still all about him. The years of telling us he’d happily leave but then pushing away any kind of offer or investment (thankfully the new guys were so desperate to relinquish this tool from his role they placated him and accepted his quite frankly, greedy and immoral demands; immoral for someone claiming to be a fan anyway).

His own username is ironic, people on this board and at fans forums have asked pertinent and relevant questions, politely and in a dignified way and yet his next response is a childlike retort because he doesn’t like the truth.

I say let him keep coming back, we’re all living in his head rent free (he’ll hate we don’t pay for the space being the money obsessed clown he is) and provide us the privilege of mocking him without really putting the effort in. Even his fans of which he claims there are many (family and sycophantic hangers on don’t count John, sorry), it’s a minute amount really, we all know this must put their heads in their hands when he pops up on here…it’s just too easy…

So whilst I’d quite like not so honest John to intercourse off on a long walk on a short pier, crawl under a rock with his fraud of a mate and the straw chewer (Marley and Day will be there but they’re so firmly placed in his rectum, him and they have no choice but to tag along) let him keep coming…it’s like shooting fish in a barrel and provides us a cracking source of entertainment…

Doing an interview with a painting of a bare bottom in the background

And now a thread that is providing him with exactly what he wants, attention!

Thread locked. This has become a pointless slagging off thread.
