Warning to those who want Fenty to put more money in to get better quality players.
The only 'success' we have had in many years was built upon a team ethic, a close knit group who were prepared to fight. At this level unity and attitude can take you far and with the right leadership can do so again for GTFC.
This is why for me it isn't about investment but about engagement and having a clear plan and ethos
For Example: Accrington Stanley

I don't want JF to put in more money. I don't think we need to spend any more than we generate as we should have enough money coming in to compete given our fan base. Of course, if you get in the right management, they will be successful and crowds will increase, meaning more income to spend on players. As long as you don't over reach and only spend what you generate, there's no reason we can't have a good team based on team spirit, with a little talent thrown in. Hopefully, you would develop some players to sell on as well.
Going back to that interview with the guy from Chesterfield. Many psychologists would tell you he is lying through his teeth. He looks to the right and particularly up and right a lot. Some say this is the classic "tell" of a liar.

In fairness, the calls for Fenty to put his money in his pocked are generally in the minority.
I think most would rather we just spent our considerable resources (for this level) effectively.

Well its a mixture of both surely. We are in a very advantageous position - a good fan base for the level we are at so apparently generate sufficient income to make ends meet,but obviously we need investment to get the better players. If that new investment was part and parcel of a new beginning, a new ethos with the fans and the town right behind the club then the sky is the limit - to coin a phrase " nothing to stop us getting to the Championship in 5 years...." If we are a league club in three weeks time, we can hope that things start to change.

Didn't the friendly Spireite that came onto the forum the other week say something about their missing millions? They've raked in loads on transfer fees and sell on fees over the past couple of seasons and fingers have been pointing at the board as the fans wonder where it has all gone.

Ye most would rather see him walk away never to be seen again.

This.. I've been a follower of events in Chesterfield for a long while and I remember the threads on Bob's Board questioning not only where some pretty large receipts from transfers had gone but there was also issues around some big raffle the club ran. The fall out from that I believe resulted in threats of court action by the powers that be against individual posters on there effectively banning them from posting.

It would never happen on the Fishy Regarding Fenty putting more money in I think most posters have said a leaner meaner squad of better players would not cost anymore than the one we have now. I would like him to put another wedge in for his own past bad management but no way as a loan.
