And what would a poll and vote achieve.....Mr Fenty would simply ignore it.
The only way I can see us getting a change of ownership is if those that want him out all chip in for a serious "GTFC UP FOR SALE" national/international advertising campaign........if it is allowed....... (Operation "GTFC UP FOR SALE")

I.e last game of the season?
How would each person actually vote. A vote booth at each corner of the stand or at certain points outside the ground?
Would obviously have to be publicised prior but I like this idea over an online poll.
An old fashioned ballot box could work
The problem is there are a lot of fans who can't get to games. for one reason or another, so you you have to use every avenue available.

Send the results to the Grimsby Telegraph and every national newspaper, one of them will run with it.

Totally get the point that JF is responsible for the long term demise, but I do think MJ (most peoples choice from a seemingly weak shortlist) has to bear responsibility for the team he has put in place.
Slade's team was poor, but Jolley managed to get enough out of it to keep us up. In my view, the main problem with last season side (apart from being dire to watch) was it's inability to create and score goals. So whenever we conceded a goal, it was invariably game over.
With that in mind, with his limited budget, Jolley's absolute priority surely had to be rectifying that particular problem.
Instead, he chose to basically rip it up and start again with an almost new side, but unfortunately, one which failed to address that number 1 priority (lack of goals.
We can only assume reasons why the club couldn't / didn't recruit to improve that weakness, but if the worst happens, I just hope those making the decisions can look themselves in the mirror, as the consequences are likely to be dire.

Great post. It's flipping boring and completely over the top.
I'll take it you're OK with being bang average at best then.

It’s more than just loosing a game, it’s about our clubs future. I agree that the timing isn’t perfect again and I understand with what you’re saying but a ballot is required to gauge the fans thoughts and not just individuals opinions on here. Personally I don’t think a ballot is right for now but towards the end of the season for whenever it’s decided and in no uncertain terms this needs to go ahead. And why not?

If you just go for season ticket holders then they are very likely to vote for the status quo as they commit to that very status quo! On the other hand, someone who would never buy a season ticket or regularly attend home games, why should they be allowed to vote? But they might be a massive fan! It's really hard to find a fair way to conduct such a poll.
The fairest way I can think of is to announce that anyone who attends a specific game (well in advance) can vote.
I'm a ST holder and want him gone tomorrow - no need to wait till the end of the season.
