Quoted from Tinymariner
I was told weeks ago that the board wanted to appoint AL and JF wanted to bring someone new in, and was willing to pay for this. The board apparently voted against this and have since pressed to appoint AL. All speculation I know but JF is always to blame isn’t he!


If that’s the case, what are the Trust directors thinking? Their two votes plus JF would trump the others because, surely JF has the casting vote?

I have it on good authority that JF contacted IH first.

I’m not sure the word “trust” can be used in the same sentence as directors where GTFC are concerned.

Quoted from Limerick Mariner


The Board have a problem then - Holloway has gone public, if they stick with AL when it goes pear-shaped it will be the Board that will take the flak from the fans...
- but not really. Because we've been here so many times now many are just so fed up with years of failed direction of GTFC that we are getting to the point of just shoulder shrugging; sadly, I think the passion is waning. I think someone else mentioned on here that they are just going through the motions of supporting. That's how I feel at the moment and it seems like the case with many others - our home attendances and away followings are now down below Conference level.

As it happens my big hope rests with Cummings, not Bobby, but Dominic. I can't stand the Tories but I do think there will be cash chucked around for a while [url]https://inews.co.uk/news/politics/conservatives-diverting-public-money-north-midlands-reward-voters-1350648[/url]. Appoint Holloway, get new investors in and there will be money for enabling and infrastructure works for a stadium - the time is now. But member this up again and we'll be heading for local derbies with Boston...






Results would suggest its already gone pear shaped with Limbrick

The Trust positions do not come with voting rights IIRC.

How anyone can talk about AL getting the job amazes me .. he can’t win a game and loses more than he draws. IH or not we need a manager and now

I'd leak that to the press if I was him. Or certainly when appointing him (hopefully). It's strange how that recording of the very unpopular at the club Michael Jolley was leaked somehow. The club were certainly able to justify getting rid then so it was useful.

I would edge my bets that if nothing comes out the club today then we've got AL until the end of the season.
It will be a major faux Pas if the board not not employ a new manager, that man being IH, and I can honestly see the gates dropping to below 2000 on a regular basis.
This club needs a major adrenaline injection and I realised that more than ever on Sunday as I sat in the pontoon and you could have heard a pin drop.
The passion from the diehards is waning and it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see although we are looking like we are playing better football AL still isn't tactically astute enough to get this team firing on all cylinders..
