PS I wonder how soon we’ll hear or see the phrase “cancel culture” in respect to the reaction to Rutter’s comment.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The trust is becoming a laughing stock because the way its running itself
Having Rutter anywhere near it makes it a joke itself

To be fair, any member can stand for election to the Trust board. It m not aware of there ever being a contested election. I’m sure anyone who wants to campaign for radical change would get elected if they stood.

It has been mentioned on here that some fans are having problems trusting the Trust. I think that is true and I think the Trust acknowledge that. Think Rutter is part of the reason.

Quoted from Ipswin


Don't see how anyone can deny this it's a fact, all the other faults he's guilty as charged maybe, but when cash was urgently needed the fans couldn't have bailed the club out


Unfortunately his running of the club and decisions he has made has cost the club far more than he has put in.

Before the public hanging lets remember it was the Daily Mail and may have been out of context. Strictly speaking we would have been in trouble without JF's loans but guessing they didn't ask about his competence. It would be advisable to issue a clarifying statement given the current turmoil

It’s a fact that he put money in, even more when we got relegated which lost us around £4 million revenue in 6 non league years. But, hey, at least he got a free ride round Dean Court on someone’s shoulders.

Possibly a half or misquote, it’s not clear if it is a personal or professional opinion or possible that he’s had a foot in mouth moment. What ever it is it needs clarifyig for the reason ginny states.

Not defending Mr Fenty at all, no one would be happier than me so see the back of him but I was always led to believe that we didn't actually lose money when we went into non league.
We just adjusted our budget accordingly.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
