Match day, back at 'work' at BP Fillipe? Hope John paid you for yesterday (Bank Holiday = double time?).  


If the football is bad you can always watch the gulls.

Worst WUM ever.


Have to disagree I’m afraid. I know times are emotional, but I would think he got a record number of bites in a very short time.  Sad act for sure, but certainly getting what he wants.  I have a strange feeling he may somehow be connected to Pen Penfras.  Pseudonym easily worked out and linked to the hierarchy at BP.  I would be genuinely astounded if either of them are who they may appear to some to be.
Trolls really need to be ignored, they hate that.
But in these times the fishing is easy and record catches are achievable 🤔

The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Quoted from thefish


You do realise that 17% is a relatively small amount, don’t you?


He doesn't do maths. So I'm guessing that he is Old Shut Up  


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.

Quoted from Fillipe Noche
Even though plenty of people bought into the consortium statement, believing it to be genuine, plenty remained sceptical. Not the biggest straw poll conducted I grant you, but still quite revealing. 16 people were not convinced the consortium statement was genuine, plus 1 was certain it was a hoax. Let that sink in. That’s 17% of fans surveyed really not sold on the notion that the consortium have chosen to conduct a multi million pound business transaction in public.

I’ve found my 24 hours on this website quite interesting. It’s quite educational to see the myriad of opinions. Although it shouldn’t provide any element of hilarity, it’s also quite comical to read some of the reply’s and gauge the level of business acumen, or lack of it, that some people have with their highly simplistic press of a button views. If only life was that simple hey.

Look it matters not who I am. Just like many, if not most of the people on here, I’m an ordinary Grimsby Town fan. I hardly see a single one of you that writes under their own name. Struggling to remember one.

I’m appreciative of the incumbent owner for keeping the club I love going. I would be equally appreciative of anyone else who comes in and takes over. As long as they are doing it for the right reasons and that they will support the club on a sound financial footing, as equally well or grander than what John Fenty has.

Let’s hope for a conclusion to all of this soon, in order that these distractions can be put behind us, and let’s hope for a good managerial appointment to improve our fortunes on the pitch.

Farewell Fishy Faithful

Unfortunately I can't resist but to reply to the above comments.  I like to think I am an "open minded" individual and always try and look at things from an alternative perspective.  I am a business owner myself for what it is worth.

I think you have missed the point of the poll, that being there is an overwhelming demand for change at the top, it is irrelevant if the statement from Mr Shutes is authentic or not, it simply emphasis the current feelings of the fans.  Granted it is a small sample, there is a substantial difference, using your own figures quoted 83% voted for change, if that was a normal vote that would be overwhelming in any scenario.  Even if you increased the number of voters, do you seriously expect to close a gap and overturn a difference of 66%... I think not.

Although I wish to personally thank Mr Fenty for his support in the past, I think we have reached a watershed moment and a realisation, that despite his best efforts and that of the board, we simply need new ideas and direction to move the club forward.  In its current state we are going backwards and their is nothing to believe this will change, given the last few years.  I find the crass attempts to discard the real owners of the club and their views condescending and unfortunately the only comical actions and comments recently should be placed at the door of the Board of Directors, which have made our great club a laughing stock.

Thank you for your comments FillipeNoche, if that is your real name of course.

He was obviously part of the inner sanctum. Or a tool of the hierarchy.

That’s why he never answered questions about Mr. Fenty being paid for the shares that were gifted to him.
