Fenty out v league survival

I Wonder if many on here would, if they had a choice, want Fenty gone even at the cost of our league status

don't even think this is a question.

obviously league status.

The two don't have to be mutually exclusive. It's time for change, JF seems to want out and I certainly want him out.

much rather see fenty out, thats the problem off the rot!

John must go regardless or the cycle will continue.We must have change to progress OR he needs to completely change and that wont happen.

"Fenty out" is portrayed as a goal in itself, but it's a negative action, and would leave a vacuum to fill which is very much a huge unknown. As we've seen on other threads there is much dissatisfaction at the way the Trust (which is probably what would be forced to step in and fill the void) is run and the fact that everyone is busy doing their own thing to devote large chunks of their lives to football. As happened with Iraq, regime change should not be an end in itself, and it's very naive just to believe everything would be roses following the tyrant's removal.

That doesn't mean I want him to stay, or even think that we will, I just think some people need to be careful what they wish for.

Survival first the rest on a proper manner later.

If we are out the league the club is worthless so more chance of getting rid of the mill stone Fenty.

Everyone's talking about an exit strategy and price on here Rob, a framework created for transition. Even if JF walked tomorrow, the club would survive and most probably flourish immediately anyway. He's no Dave Whelan is he? It's getting to the stage where anything is going to be better than the last fifteen years of quite probably four relegations, one non-relegation, early exits from cup competitions, six years in non-league and the resulting sheer contempt between the board and the fans. We are not a healthy club. If there ever was to be void in the future, it emphasises the need for the Trust to properly get its act together to build something that the fans can believe in again. If they need extra help in forming a new direction, there will be a queue forming of willing helpers..

Going by the incumbent's record, I'm sure a new GTFC board could be filled with a greater number of capable professionals. The club and the town need a boost like OP, but on a much bigger scale. I think it can be achievable. Sitting on hands and worrying about the unknown is not an option..

Based on what? I imagine there would be a difficult transition period while others came forward found their feet. It might take a few iterations to get the right individuals in key positions. If it were literally tomorrow it would be even harder than an orderly transition at the end of the season.

There's no doubt that the football club will survive in some form whatever happens but to say it would flourish immediately is absurdly optimistic and downright naive.
