A question for the fans

I’m talking to the fans who continue to provide support to the club through buying tickets and merchandise.  I must speak as an outsider amongst many who simply refuse to pay disproportionate prices for non-entertainment arising out of Fentys continued mistakes.

He won’t sell the club, it’s worth nothing but he thinks it is.  Face facts, there is no buyer and nobody will invest while he remains.  If we want a club we have to accept that we may have to go backwards.  If you want change then you have to be prepared to make sacrifices.  It’s fairly obvious that Fenty takes the supporters for granted, time to force his hand.  Debt doesn’t kill business but cashflow does, stop spending your cash on Fentys mistakes.  Every season ticket sale, every burger, every shirt, every pint, every home match ticket is simply endorsing his failure.  

So the question is (thanks Ginny), are you prepared to act to save your club?

Enough is enough, vote with your feet and wallets!!

So what is the question?

This is the club I love

No matter who is the manager or the chairman I will not stop spending money to hurt the club in any way shape or form.

John reads TheFishy so I will air my views here, that is enough. I hope he is aware many season ticket holders will not return next season with this man in charge.

Why are we waiting John?

So what is the question?

No idea BUT  the answer is  42.

Sorry, I thought it was obvious, edited.

I don't like the idea of boycotts for league games especially with Football League status on the line..

Dream scenario..

JF sacks Slade today and puts out a statement saying he's writing off the loans to make an imminent public declaration of putting the club up for sale and making it a more attractive proposition. He promises to resign at the end of the season, club sold or not, if the fans come back, get behind the team and help to ensure survival.

Like I said dream scenario, but also becoming more and more the most feasible and viable option to save the club..

Absolutely nothing wrong with that, I commend your loyalty.

Just to be sure, I didn’t start the thread as an opportunity to post needy replies to every response but your post deserves a reply.  Your dream scenario is the same as mine and no doubt the same as many.  But it won’t happen without action I’m afraid.

Fenty has shown time after time that he is incapable of making well informed decisions and he's completely incapable of judging the feeling amongst the fans. But surely even he is capable of seeing that if Slade is in charge for the foreseeable future, we risk our immediate status as a FL club and after that we risk ST sales next season being less than half what they currently are. Come on John, we know you're reading it. Put your ego to the side, take one on the chin and do the right thing.

Yes, i am prepared to act to save my club. The question really, is what does that entail?

I can't see how everyone staying away will achieve that. If you are hoping it will force out JF, then what happens after that? If you are hoping it will force out Slade, who's to say a new manager would turn it around?

All i'm concerned about at the moment is not falling any further down the table, then we can take stock in April. Already paid for my season ticket, so i'm looking as far as the end of the season. We now have a run of games that are more than winnable, so that should be the sole focus of the club right now. If the board decide bringing in a new manager will help in that regard, then so be it. If they don't, then we will see how it pans out. Not much else we can do at the moment. Supporting a lower league club is never a smooth path. I've seen worse teams than this one before.

I think Slade was the wrong choice of manager, because he was never going to get any leeway should things go pear shaped, and boy are they going pear shaped right now. If we lose the next two games though, especially the Cheltenham fixture, i think i may spontaneously combust.
