Will MJ be here next season?

Quoted from ginnywings

Whatever your thoughts on JF, he does generally back managers with their requests. He just backs the wrong managers most of the time. Bignot and Slade must have wasted a fortune, but now we have the opportunity to clear the decks and do what we should have done 2 years ago. MJ will know exactly how much he has to work with, and will trim the squad accordingly.If he gets us playing like we have been recently, then crowds will definitely rise, and there will be more scope to add to the quality level. A long awaited good cup run would be nice too.

Agrred Ginny.  Last good cup run was 89 v Wimbledon.  We had one or 2 in the league cup but not the fa cup.

97/98 wasn't bad...it just gets overlooked by other events that year! Beaten in fourth round by Leeds at Elland Rd.

Was that when Tony Yeboah came on the scene?

He has done in the past. Will he still now, seen as he openly admits he wants out, and everyone is telling him to intercourse off?

13/14 was decent too (got through the same amount of rounds!). Beat 2 sides a division above us (including Scunthorpe) to reach round 3, where we pushed Huddersfield (3 divisions above us) all the way.

Think he'd gone by then. Hasselbaink scored though.

Forgot about the Huddersfield game when robbins was in charge town deserved to win that.

A cup run Ginny. Blimey, I’d settle for cup win. 2 years back in the league and not one cup victory. Not even in the checkatwat trophy, even after penalties!!

Let’s start at one and build from there!!

I think MJ will have something to work with but we would not be unlike many/most other league 2 clubs in that he'll have to balance the budget and trade to a degree rather than being a "kid in a sweet shop" like Bignot was in the Jan 17 window.    

The cup point is a really good one as historically like many clubs good runs or beating a big side has injected energy into GTFC both on and off the pitch. You see the impact this had on Lincoln last season and this season cup success brought everyone together at Rochdale for their great escape.

Surely it's our turn to draw a giant in the 3rd round, get a draw at BP and then a big payday in a replay? If only...........  

Quoted from Mrs Doyle

Of COURSE HE WILL.

You would have to be a monumental idiot not to appreciate what he has achieved here.

Remember this is the same team Slade could not do a thing right with.

Of course we all appreciate what he has done, but I think the original poster was pointing out whether Jolley will move on because Fenty won't share his vision of the club, or back it with the right investment. If Jolley can rise above the antics of Fenty then great, but I share the worry that now that we are safe Fenty will start backtracking on some promises that would have been made when he was offered the job. Nothing would surprise me with Fenty, nothing.
