Brilliant post??
Just regurgitation of hundreds posted beforehand. Its blatantly obvious what needs to happen and has been for eternity. Now if it had realistic ideas of how to facilitate that...........
It was a brilliant post 'cos I liked it. The important thing about the post to me was it highlighted how a small club like Lincoln can transform their fortunes from a lower starting point than ours, with the right people in charge. Too many fans have continued to support Fenty, at least until recently, when like you say it has been obvious for a long time what was needed. There is life after Fenty; we will rise again, but we need a fresh board with new ideas and a blueprint of the type of club they want.

Nirvana. Until then just carry on as normal. And don't assume the support for JF has waned.

How many teams in this league can get over 7000 through the gate? .
Twenty one, or 88% if you prefer. Only Salford, Morecambe & Crawley cannot (as yet).

Really? Normal has become settling for league status and, for me, that means normal is excrement. The reason John Fenty can’t sell the club is that it’s in the worst state it’s ever been and he wants too much for it. Before you respond by saying that the club is financially secure, I mean that the paying customers have never felt more apathetic and more disenchanted than now. Our latest, stated tonight, ambition is to get through to next season. Fking brilliant! That’s another half season ticket times three that I’ve wasted. And so it goes on....and on...the priceless cost of the Fenty years.

I'm sick of all the balderdash on and off the pitch us fans have had to put up with over the last 16 years or so. It never changes season after excrement season. BP just stinks of failure. Will it ever end???????

| 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. GOD |

You misunderstand. My response was to the suggestion of the Lincoln model which will never materialise in my opinion. So in the meanwhile everything will carry on as normal as its done for years. Didn't you say earlier in the year you were not going to renew ??..................

I don't think it is too much to ask for to be honest - new owners after nearly two decades of failure, but I think we are aware it will be business as usual, sadly. Your point about Fenty's popularity is up for debate; it is certainly the case that he has lost the support of previous pro-Fenty posters on here, but perhaps the wider fan base does still have faith in him, but I find that hard to believe.

Fully agree that ownership is the key to propelling the club into a new future. Support for him is really interesting- there's no evidence either way.
