Quoted from Squarkus

The quality is better than last year, we have a great nucleus of a team that PH is just putting the final pieces together, have you seen them play yet or are you going on what you have read on here, Fenty has yet again put his money where his mouth is as we have a better budget than last year, PH thankfully is not in a rush to get players in that don’t fit into his plans hence why he has given the trialists a really good bash at it, to me i think PH with his bigger budget personally will get it right as previously we have bought players in on a panic basis and got it wrong, smaller squad better quality, so why don’t you put your money where your mouth is and get to the club and support the team (as opposed to what you hear) and stop giving Fenty some Sh-t for something he has said.


Not sure how anyone can say this until we have played a number of league games, on the showings so far I would have to say I don't see any real improvement and I have seen every game but I really want to see how well we do in the league.

Really? have you any figures to back that statement up?

Brown is an improvement on Kerr surely? And I'd rather have Arnold and Mackreth than Rodman and Colbeck?

He never did say this - he was misquoted.



He claimed he was misquoted ...

Well even if he wasn't misquoted, what's he guilty of...
raising fans expectations...selling more season tickets...doing the best he can for the club?

Ain't that part of his job?

Not JF biggest fan but I think the panic and hysteria from some is laughable, still 2 weeks till the season starts and haven't played our strongest team once yet. No one can be sure how we will fair this season but I'm fairly confident of top 5 again and I reckon we need to give them at least 10 games before we panic.

Quoted from kingster72
It is now time for John Fenty to put his money where his mouth is and deliver these signings that are going to make the fans hairs on their necks stand up!  He should never have said this, as it has just fueled disappointment since and taken the excitement felt from 3 decent signings before.  We need to stop messing with the likes of trialists Ironside and Clay, who from what we hear are not going to improve the squad, we need to show are intentions from the off this year and if Fenty can't deliver what he promised, he should just shut his mouth!



It seems to me that JF is always "putting his money where his mouth is" by constantly bankrolling the club.

Yeah JF !! how can you not have a team good enough to beat a L1 team !


Difficult to judge on last nights performance , a mish mash of possibles and probables .  Doncaster were light years better than us , league football is different to conference . It was a disappointing performance from us never gave doncaster a problem .
Hope Friday will give us a better idea of what we will be watching from town this season .

My understanding is that this year's budget is down a little on last year's. JF indicated that this would be the case at a fans forum, but still competitive for our league.
