The only concession I would make here is that we do at least know about this and about him. How much did we really know about the “investors” in the Parkway debacle or the backers of Shutes’ bids??



I am struggling with the logic of this when we only know because of a leak and what we know is that he is a convicted career fraudster. Sounds like better the devil you don't to me.

Who would have thought that a Tory would align himself with crooks and thieves to further his own interests?

JF is not a fan, never has been, never will be, it's all about the ££££ and nothing else.


1. Politicians of all sides not covered themselves in any glory and so take off your blinkers
2. JF is a fan, always has been, always will and so get your facts right

Yes it’s not like he’s the mayor of a big city is it?

But if JF gets involved with someone as suspect as this he is asking for trouble. I always thought JF was a canny bloke in business but this does not look good for him. Even the argument that May’s money is as good as anyone’s wouldn’t convince me to let this con merchant near the club.

The only concession I would make here is that we do at least know about this and about him. How much did we really know about the “investors” in the Parkway debacle or the backers of Shutes’ bids??

I do wonder how the story broke in the first place. Someone must have recognized him and grabbed a phone picture I suppose.


If you follow that logic through, it’s like saying we don’t trust Shutes’ team because we don’t know they have a convicted fraudster on board.

Then why is May even in the ground when a match is on? It stinks.


Don’t know... maybe something to do with Mr Fenty’s business arrangements with Mr May... or as we may find out at the invite of the club.

Hopefully we will soon find out what is going on and his involvement with our club. TBH I really because of his form he wasn't involved at all. Not trust worthy

It’s a breach of the regulations if he isn’t a club official. So either the club has broken the law or it has a convicted fraudster in a position of responsibility. Either way heads should roll.

Well actually I think there is some truth in that Kingston. The fly by night developers who get involved in football stadia building are not easy to research properly without some experience, which we as fans do not often possess.

If somebody is coming into BP in some capacity I would like to see it all open and above board beforehand.
