Ollie has given his personal views on the Tom Shutes takeover.

at the end of the day, if what Shuts offers is the best dela for the club, then someone will make that decision.  Until that becomes the case, its not really that much of a story is it?

Shuts hasnt come up with the wonga as far as I can see

It is a little disconcerting that Ollie seems to have put all his eggs into the Fenty basket.

He seems to have a great deal of time for him, despite the obvious truth that we have gone nowhere under his leadership.

I wonder if Ollie himself sees an opportunity to take over the club in time and would rather work with Fenty till the opportunity arises? I imagine if anyone could woo potential investors it would be Ollie, especially if we could have a bit of success on the field.

Roll on some football.

I don't want to be a completely cynical b*stard but Olly knows that under the current board he rules the roost, new owners might just want a far greater say and would dilute Olly's 'power'. Under the current board GTFC are going to be Ian Holloway FC for the foreseeable future.

You don't get to be a Premier League manager without a backbone of steel inside the affability and west country charm.

BTW, just finished John McDermott's autobiography and the one man he makes it very clear he has little time for is Fenty even though the rest of the book is pretty vanilla.

Moot point as there is no takeover, and at the moment, there is no football either.  Might as well ask him what he thinks of the impending takeover of Grimsby Town by the Sultan of Brunei.

If Shutes deal turns out to be more ideal for us, so be it, theres plenty of other Clubs who want a manager Ollie, dont hold us to ransom.

If that was the case I suspect Holloway would be out before the ink was dry and a top world name would be in his seat double quick

Shutes may not want Holloway if he was to take over the club
