Very disappointed in his actions, right before Christmas too, he's let the fans down badly here and only a few days after he said he was standing with us.

To all the fans,

It is with a heavy heart that I am announcing my resignation as manager of Grimsby Town Football Club.

New wannabe owners are hovering over GTFC and John has told me he is selling his stake in the club. So it’s time for a fresh start across the board for this great club.

As I said recently, I intend to be fully honest with you, the supporters.

Contact was made by the new owners to me on several occasions before the takeover, which I felt was inappropriate, and told them as such. This is the key factor in my decision.

Why? The relationship between the incoming new owners, board and manager is so so important. It needs to be strong for a club to succeed, and we got off on the wrong footing.

Therefore, that relationship will be strained from the off, which is bad for the club.

This is a club that, if everybody has its best interests at heart, can progress onwards and upwards. That is their challenge. That is their honour.

I sincerely wish them all the best going forward and I implore them to communicate regularly and openly with the fans.

For a myriad of reasons, on and off the pitch, it feels like we didn’t get a fair crack together, and I take me share of the blame too. I hoped for this to be a long, serious relationship but it hasn’t worked out that way, and that saddens me

I wish you every bit of success. The fans deserve it. God bless

Not surprised , the guys head hasnt been right for weeks, all this scandal on top and cr@p team he has assembled.

Hope he gets sorted mentally as he clearly has been struggling.

As for the whole sh!t show then just another act in the JF Circus.

Not a penny more until he has gone.

It would divide opinion massively but Hurst would get us working as a team with some identity. We wouldn’t go down under PH

"To the fans of Grimsby Town Football Club. Let me say, first and foremost, that I’m not going anywhere unless I’m told to. The love that you, the fans, have shown myself and my family since my arrival has exceeded even my highest expectations, on and off the pitch."

Yeh, yeh, yeh, whatever.

Tw@t!!
