John Fenty's "to do" list.  

Quoted from Garth

Aint gunner appen!

Finding it hard to disagree with any of it though

I'm really not at all sure how Dave Smith is in the firing line especially without any evidence merely a glib pronouncement that we should be making more money commercially. I've seen close at hand and indeed worked with Dave on a few Trust related bits and in my view he does an absolutely outstanding job.
Another example of someone being a victim of the Open Season on all employees of GTFC.
Poor Hearts thought you were much better than this...

Ian, what was the commercial income as a percentage of the turnover last year versus other clubs? Start with that and then break it down into commercial, retail, catering etc.. then look at the margins, how strong are they? How much margin do we p1ss away when we sell off all that stock in the club shop each April? Do we re-negotiate our replica kit supply margin each season or just go with what we have always had.

Who owns the catering the club or is it franchised with the franchise being based upon turnover rather than a fixed fee or do we operate a joint venture partnership with these people?

What happens at BP on non match days? How are we using the playing squad to promote interest in the club etc.. etc.. etc.. My point was not a personal dig at a Wembley Hero but we need new ideas throughout and you can always make more commercial income on the back of them. As someone who works in a commercial world it's obvious to a blind man.    

As for glib comments look behind the table at the fans forum you'll have seen many more than I can ever come up with.

And to add............ Yes just my personal opinion which £340 PA as a STH and like many on here paying much more to GTFC both directly and indirectly gives me the right to express I feel that jobs for the boys at BP needs to stop both on and off the field as there is better talent at the other end of the M180.
