This! It’s not an ethical stance it’s about money.
I don't give a flying intercourse what it's really about but if it stops someone without a pot to urine in gaining control of the club but not being able to invest anything then I'm all for it. Too many Burys, Boltons etc around thank you

If I were you, I'd go back to the beginning of this thread, listen to the interview again and then convince me that you want Mr Fenty to continue running this club into the ground future.

I obviously don't speak for everyone, but surely we don't want a money man throwing money at the club recklessly, we want someone with a long term vision, to grow the club across Lincolnshire, and with growth will come extra revenue sources, which in term leads to a better youth program, which leads to more sales of players. Someone like Andy Holt at Accrington Stanley, who is slowly but surely building a community club, yes he has thrown some of his own money at the club, but he never wants it back, but the way he is going about business is marvelous. So as long as the can pay JF off and get him out of the club and have a little reserve, then i'm happy. We don't need money, as we are making are making £200k profit a year and have balance books, we need vision more.

Don't need to sunbeam, my opinion is as my earlier post in fact I wouldn't be surprised if what a new owner intends to put in to the club rather than simply buying JF out is what is holding things up. Say what you like about the bloke, I don't think JF is going to hand over to just anyone

No chance!! The thing that will be holding things up is what JF can get out of it for himself!! Conditions such as lifelong place on the board etc. He still needs to be able to feed his ego across Lincolnshire. As much as he is a fan, I don’t buy into the fact that his interests are all about the best custodian for the Club going forward. Just conjecture but I think he is the one that is holding things up with his ‘conditions!’

I'd say Team Fenty just bolstered their squad by one.
Wow, look at those red crosses on the and other even mildly Fenty-critical posts. Bye Fishy, killed by the petty and overbearing Fenty disease, just like he club itself.

You make a valid point but this is why Fenty must go asap. We win on the opening day and it is all overshadowed by his crass interview. It is Fenty causing the problems not the fans/posters.

I thought the 'hauled over the coals' comment was ace, as it gave me a full house at my game of Fenty cliche bingo. We all know the guy talks in cliches, and i just think he pulled the wrong one out of his considerable repertoire. I'm surprised he didn't use ' throwing the baby out with the bathwater'- a particular favourite. He does have a knack for saying the wrong thing at the wrong time.

I think the sad thing is that most people (me included) have pretty much lost faith in John Fenty. So because we don’t hear anything from the other side involved in the bid we assume any delays are his fault. Personally I think it’s a bit harsh. I said before the start of the season it would be a while. So I’m not too surprised nothing has happened yet. Purely my personal opinion, I suspect it’s all linked with regards to a new stadium. If the takeover does go ahead I don’t think it will be too long before an announcement regarding plans for said stadium to go ahead.
However, I will not be judging either party until I am more aware of what exactly has gone (is going) on.
I will give it probably until Christmas before I give up on it ever happening.
