Has he gone yet ?

Quoted from BIGChris

Will be interesting how many go tonight. Weather isnt great and i would be surprised if we get 3000

I think around the 2900 mark, I know of at least 5 who would be going tonight usually but just have not got the motivation chris.

For me, going to the match is a social occasion and has always been as part of a group. That group had slowly dwindled to just me and my brother. Last Tuesday he said he couldn't be arsed anymore, so i didn't go either. It's bad enough watching shite football but doing it sat on your own is even worse. If he hasn't changed his mind from last week, then i shall be missing my third home game on the trot by choice. Can't ever remember that happening in the past

Exactly the same for me.

I cant really remember the last time I missed 2 home games on the spin and not really felt gutted.

I have been sucked dry by GTFC of all motivation.

I've got a season ticket, but have got a £60 job I can do instead tonight. Tonight I will be at BP but not sure I will be next time. So PH / JF and the players you have got until next month (1 Nov home to Dartford) to change my mind.

Ah the old striker debate. I for one believe hurst has been very very naive in this area. His lack of expertise in knowing what a good striker is? I don't think so, any defensive player/manager should know from first hand experience what a good striker is all about. Players were mentioned during the summer about season long loans from clubs such as Leicester and Sunderland with those at the top saying how important it could be. Did this not happen due to hurst digging his heels in and only wanting his own people/targets?

As for what hurst has brought to the club in the form of wembley and 2 playoff appearances, I am very thankful for. Great wins against local rivals and cup runs. But, the inept tactical knowledge is starting to show. You've brought stability to the club, but unfortunately, the fans strive for more.

So is hurst the man to take us forward?????? I think tonight could have a big say

Hurst can spin it all he likes but its a must win tonight for him IMO so he had better treat it as such, no bull about how good the opposition are just go out and win it FFS

Quoted from GrimRob

The supporters were blamed by JF in the summer for their role in turning players away from the club:
"Would you join a club where the fans run you down. Rodman, Jennings and trialists to name a few when trying to clinch a deal. Sickening!!!!!!! you think its just about money!!!!!!"

What a load of balderdash that bloke comes out with at times.
Would you join a club that has been run down by Fenty for more than a decade and is going nowhere fast under his stewardship??????

Quoted from GrimRob

The best gauge of public opinion is numbers through the turnstile.

My gauge is my son, now 12. He's been Town mad, always up for going to see the family in Gy and take in a game. That's ebbed away to almost nothing now and that's a real concern as we are set to lose a generation of Town fans who've seen nothing more than failure in their lifetimes. Good thing is he's not a Premier fan, just loves football, but it's slowly gone from listening to the commentary with me to playing out, skateboarding with his mates on a Sat afternoon, carefree and away from the crushing misery that is a weekend relying on Town to cheer you up. Sometimes i've joined him I I was a skateboard wizard back in the day).

When my lad perks up and sees this team putting on proper displays, showing guts and getting somewhere I'm sure he'll be back up for it, until then the attendance is down by at least 2....

I would suggest that he himself is a far bigger reason for players not signing for the club rather than the odd comment here and there on a fans forum.

Players, managers, agents all talk; players share the same agents.  Maybe it's Fenty's 'image' amongst the football world that is hindering our chances of signing some players?

JF described the Makofo signing as 'disasterous' - maybe it was but you shouldn't be coming out in the press making those statements.  I'm sure the agent who handled that deal isn't exactly going to give a glowing recommendation of the club to any other player who we are interested in.

Rob Scott described him as a 'clown' last week.  Fair enough, some say  it's just sour grapes, maybe it is, but it doesn't exactly show our non-Chairman in a great light.

Macca didn't have a great deal of good words about him in his book.

Adrian Forbes:

"The former Norwich and Swansea player described Fenty as a ‘very shrewd businessman’, something which showed as he tried to secure his release from the club following interest from Hayes & Yeading and Darlington. “I didn’t have much of relationship with the Chairman over my time at the club, apart from when I was trying to gain my release from the club. It struck me then that he was a very shrewd businessman with a real passion to always be right. Now whilst this scared a few people around the club, it didn’t bother or scare me one bit. I just felt he was more a businessman than a football man.”

“I do feel the club may have suffered by Mr Fenty’s view on how to run a football club but this will only become apparent over the next few months/years when we find out if a new owner can take the club forward.”
