Not a lie. It was unanimous that the board accepted May being involved.
It only changed AFTER the backlash from the story. Ask Dave Roberts and John Wood which way they voted the FIRST time this was brought up. If they say they voted against it first time, then they're lying. FACT.
So, you don't want to be a part of the NEW vision of moving forwards, not looking back? That's your right, but don't bring your negativity on here where the majority just want to move on. Thanks.

It doesn't matter if its true or not, the only fact that matters now is that its in the past. Time to draw a line.

Freedom of speech and all of that but I think it's time everyone ignored anything pen penfras says that goes back to the old times trying to make us doubt anything. I'm happy to have debates with anyone on here and I can accept people view things differently but whoever is behind that account has quite frankly (sorry to be rude) bored me since ive started paying attention to his or her user name.

Interesting how everybody is creaming themselves over the trust now that Fenty has gone. Has something changed?
Also strange how they've managed to escape the May criticism despite both board members voting in favour of him buying those shares in the club.
This could be another false dawn but the change of ownership has given the majority of fans real hope that our fortunes, both on and off the pitch, are about to improve and for the first time there is a belief that the Trust will have a real say and influence upon how the club is run. What is there to dislike about this? Why knock fans who want to be be part of this positive vibe that’s surrounding our club at what should be one of our lowest ebbs? You come over as a very bitter and sad fan who can’t comprehend that the club has finally rid itself of the millstone hung around its neck for the last twenty years, John Fenty.

Complete and utter garbage Pen Penfras The board, including the Mariners Trust board members, were not in a position to vote on May buying shares in the business, because quite simply, he wasn’t eligible to do so because of his criminal record. He would not have passed the football authorities fit and proper person tests in respect of owning £1 million worth of shares in a football club. His investment and involvement would never have been in respect of shares in the club or board appointment. That was impossible. His involvement was only ever going to be investment in the Town, in football training facilities, by which GTFC would have benefitted as the attached tenants using that facility, for club, academy and community. As part of the regeneration project Pen Penfras I think it’s time you drew a line under all of this. You are becoming quite nauseous and quite frankly it’s not needed. It’s a new start now with a clean slate. Move on and please stop belly aching Filipe

I'm not sure if any of you seen on Twitter yesterday, but I'd be willing to contribute to paying a couple of fans membership for the upcoming season if they are not able to do so. I know how good of a feeling it is to get rid of the negativity from your club and starting fresh with new ideas/positivity. Just drop me a message & I'll get this sorted All the best guys. UTM

Leave him/her* alone. He/she has shown remarkable fortitude to come on her to point out everyone’s errors.
* we might have been labouring under a misapprehension that Fillipe is a bloke. It might be pronounced Fiillipa. Not a board member but the partner of one and party to pillow talk perhaps. Not that he/she couldn’t be a partner of a board member and be a bloke.

Why should we take notice of you? You were absolutely totally wrong about the Dembele payments, true.

I think you will find, if you check your history, that I’ve never ever made any claims in respect of Dembele contract at Peterborough, with regards to us receiving a payment from Posh, in the event that they get promoted to the Championship whilst Dembele is still at their club. If you are aware of instance where I have, then by all means show me. You’ll find that my comments regarding Dembele’s contract were all solely in connection with the period of time written into the contract where a % fee would be payable to Town, in the event he was subsequently sold by Posh. Shall I sort of accept your apology for this wild and inaccurate accusation without you having to physically write it DB ? Just saying
