I keep getting red crosses for saying this but never mind I will say it again sorry I can not say my souce.

Ollie had a agreement that after he finished in management he would be the chairman and owner of the club.

Whether Fenty told him he would sell his shares of give them to Ollie I do not know.

Selling the club to Shutes  means that deal is off if that is what happening.

So I expect Ollie to walk and leave us in the excrement.

We might find out later.


I think we can safely say Fenty would not give them to him.

If this was at all plausible surely Ollie would be much better working with the Shutes consortium as they are much closer, so it seems, to his moral values. They will also be able to access investment funds that Fenty could only dream about, so if Ollie is serious about putting GTFC back on the map go all in with the Shutes consortium and lets get cracking!

Well at least he's got two possible new excuses for when he felicitations off and he won't have to use Covid and the training ground being waterlogged

1) I can't possibly work for a club that was even contemplating taking money from a convicted con man

2) I can't possibly work for a club if my little pal John Fenty is not there to look after me

Great week of preparation for the scunny game. Well done to all involved...


What, is John Fenty or Phillip Day starting at centre half this Saturday? Makes frig all difference on the pitch.

If Holloway can’t handle 1 (one) board meeting without it scuppering his plans for a week, who’s issue is that?

Nothing through the clubs official channels about this, so you have to think that Holloway is going rogue on this one.

Whilst I agree putting something out there saying he's not happy and will be issuing a statement isn't going to help, but it's probably not unlikely he's told Humberside/Telegraph to expect a statement and they've rung him quickly for a soundbite as a teaser.    

Don't agree that it's bad timing in terms of the Scunthorpe, or any other, game.  Ideally we would have him focused on the football but that's not how things are.  The more pressure that Fenty gets put under the better.







This all said, if he comes out and defends Fenty and how the club is well run again I'm done with him.

If  he goes  Dave Moore would be ideal as he has done it twice before until we get a permenent replacement.

You never know Shutes might have more luck in getting us a manager that takes us up the league.

AND

Take less than 20+ years in getting us a new stadium more like 2 to 3

Having the manager questioning his future and deciding he has to issues statements isn’t great preparation for a big game. If you think it is that’s fine though.

If Ollie talks to Shutes  he might be surprised that he could get a similar deal with him.

I don't think he would want to pack in managing for at least ten years.

Shutes  would more than likely agree to some sort of deal with that time scale in mind.

Completely agree. Getting 3 points on Saturday is vital, aside from the fact it's a local derby and now it looks like we have a manager who is distracted by all of this.
