Fans Forum

Quoted from barralad

All I can add is that the two "representatives" (well the ones I knew anyway) of The Fishy did us proud with some very well delivered questions and comments. Take a bow 1MickeyLyons and Civvy at Last.

Which one was Steve?

Sat down with a beer now at my mum’s having got back from the meeting.

Immediate thoughts are that nothing will change from the club side as JF and Stephen Marley were not in listening mode. E.g. the point about it not being the rebuttal of MattDean that was the issue but the manner of it. John just kept saying ‘I was right to issue a rebuttal’.

It seemed more of an opportunity for John to get some things off his chest and for Stephen Marley to talk patronisingly to the fans. He could have covered what needed to be said about the search for new investors in a quarter of the time and he made a big song and dance about whether he should tell us about it. I respect the need to keep the parties confidential but why the need to have kept this close to his chest in the first place. He said ‘in the spirit of openness’ through gritted teeth like he was forced into doing us a favour.

Russell Slade was value for money! Talked well and without patronising or lecturing anyone.

As ever it ain’t what you do* it’s the way that you do it.

Which one was Steve?

I got caught up in a car and lorry accident on the M18 coming back from Nottingham tonight, so caught the back end of the forum, anything positive before the bickering started. The bit I saw looked like Fenty crying he was a victim whilst lambasting poor old Pete and another vile sish on the fishy.

Steve Marley looks nothing like his dad Bob, and whilst he was talking birds were falling out the sky, bore off you smug boring fart.

Anyone give me a concise over view please.

I attended and managed to get a question in about Shaun Pearson, but I was surprised with Slade's assessment and use of stats as Cardwell and Clifton came out on top on most of the charts we were shown, and yet they never seem to get a game!.... Fenty got taken to task by a guy I know on the 'bullying' question of the EFL games, and I agree that the accountant Marley came across very smug and patronising.

"Feel very sorry for @mattdeanradio tonight. A good bloke, doing his job, ambushed. I felt embarrassed being sat on that panel. As I left I apologised to him.

An hour prior the club moaned about fans bullying fans then promptly ganged up and bullied him. Unreal. Embarrassing."

This tweet from the Trust Chairman Paul Savage hits the nail on the head. Really impressed with him, could see he was horrified with what was going on.

Embarrassing at the end there,totally unprofessional.
And John,oh dear,oh dear

After tonight although I don't agree with how that Marley bloke spoke I have found a new respect for Mr fenty .

The bloke has had a hard time from people and me included and it's time from my point of view anyway to put it to bed and pull together in one direction.

I'd love to agree with that but watching Fenty grin throughout the Curtis Woodhouse section at the end, seeing his smirk when Matt Dean says he got his info from a valued source...ugh. Unhappy with this board, frustrated at the amateurishness of their media skills and Marley is the Titanic of the PR world of disasters.

An awful ending, Slade lost it at the end, a mistaken Tweet somehow is much bigger than Stevenage and Checkatrade and incurs a red-faced, eye bulging swipe at Dean? You lose trust? I still remember Cardiff Mr Slade, I know trust.
The way I feel now I'd have the lot out, it's becoming a freakshow. These are dark days at GTFC.

Well all I can say is I thought it was going to be the usual boring shite.

Far from it.......the questions we wanted to be asked where asked and strongly....

and I thought the replies by JF and the panel where very informative and honest.

I'm not a big fan of John Fenty but ..boring boring ...I trust the board to make the right choice over the next owner after hearing that.
