Nobody is coming up with any sensible solutions. How to get rid of a manager without breaking the bank


There has been.

Seeing as Mr Fenty wanted the fellow back and gave him a contract which I think everyone can now agree was stupid(Fenty won't reveal because he's probably embarrassed) then Fenty should be a man, put his hand up and admit it was a stupid decision and then pay Slade off out of his own pocket.
Fenty has this money as he has taken over 200k out of the club recently.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

Got to be joking about Newell,his issues were an open secret,all he had to do was to ask any Luton fan.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

For the few who think Slade is not on a long contract,

Why has no mention ever been made on the length even when Fenty has been asked again and again,

My theory is Slade signed for 3years and a bit when he joined last year,

So that means he has 2 years left,

Will he except a 6 month pay off ? I don't think so,

A years salary will be needed for him to leave by mutual consent,

What is a years salary  ?    £100,000 I would imagine,

Please tell us if I am wrong Mr Fenty.

£100,000 is cheap if you calculate how much the club will lose if we go down or how much the crowds will stay away if we stay up under Slade.

Its a no brainer to me but I am not in charge.

What a load of balderdash

I don't have an issue with Fenty as I believe his heart is in the club 100% and I see no viable alternative. Yes some of his decisions and 'PR' frustrates me but we could have someone much worse... he has got it right (Hurst despite many fans wanting him gone) and we are back in the FL.

However, whilst my tendency is to give managers more time than most would (I don't like the swapping and changing culture of modern football, you do need time to build), I have had enough of this and fear relegation if we continue: get him gone Fenty: Slade OUT before it's too late!

I've never bought into this long ,well paid contract theory , especially after only 6 month rolling contracts were offered to the 2 previous managers.




Confirmed in the official GTFC statement that Slade was on a 6 month rolling contract. Seems like some poster on this site was reporting " fake news " - I suggest he sticks to his chosen sport !
