Is another operation promotion a terrible idea? Didn't know a lot about the last one but it maybe a good idea to launch us and Jolley

Another fundraising/crowdfunding thing is a decent idea, but call it something different I reckon. Last time round as beaten playoff finalists and among the favourites to go up Operation Promotion made sense, but we'll be far from favourites to go up next season in the eyes of the rest of the division/media and it's very likely that we're going to finish this season somewhere in the 10th to 16/17th kind of area.

what about a smaller version ,but targeted on things jolley might need? i.e. he may suggest a piece of equipment that every other club has which would help to improve performance or the club in general. that would make it  a manageable target and there would be something tangible and long lasting (a legacy if you like) at the end

Maybe too late but I hope to see a promotion mindset in the team and supporters rather than just an acceptance of “top half” as the limit of ambition. If we have a winning mentality, use it to advantage.

Patience is never a virtue in football. Go for the jugular or sink down the leagues. If there is the slightest chance of reaching that last playoff place with a good run then let’s go for it and see where it leads. You never know.


“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”

Following on from that, an alternative may be to raise funds to pay for 2/3 pro deals for our YT's with the balance going to the youth team too.

Bearing in mind Mr Fentys opinion of the last one, then hell yes, go for it.

Operation Safe Standing.  Rail seats at the east end of the Pontoon; removed seats to replace broken ones elsewhere in the ground and the new ones to travel with us to the new ground. Also put a side on the pontoon to direct the noise towards the pitch

Operation 21st Century.  Bring the ticket buying process up to date with proper online seat booking, movable season tickets, print at home, etc.

Can this be a by-product of Operation Time To Go, John?
