very important that the 3 monkeys are up front on positions etc, what there remit is.  So many unanswered questions.


I disagree Boris, they are not 3 monkeys but 3 Amigos. Apart from that I agree with you. All we know is that they are buying Fenty out and prefer the docks for a new stadium. They have had informal discussions with the supporters trust, which apart from a sentence the trust have not revealed much.

So what is their intensions? While it is good for the Fenty regime to end we have had no indication what the future holds. 'Que sera sera'

I would be careful how you refer to certain people.

Quoted from HertsGTFC
Having someone with experience and who's seen life beyond the M180 would make sense. The consortium all have lots of interests away from GTFC so having they right person in charge "on site" makes perfect sense.    


I know you’ve been advocating for a CEO for a long time now, and maybe it’s coming.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.

You never know, perhaps the intension is to run the club on a professional basis, as opposed to a dictatorship!

Think you’ve missed the tongue in cheek nature of my post relating to previous Fenty statements mate.


Whoops, clearly overlooked that one.
Must have missed it amongst all the other bullsh1t he spouts. !!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Interesting to hear that Jason Stockwood interview recently where he talks about recruiting the best people to work in your organisation.

It makes sense when you look at the consortium’s portfolio of work to have someone run the club on their behalf. Still needs someone to do all the admin/compliance stuff I’d have thought (Ian Fleming), but someone who is going to lead but delegate while understanding the detail.

Yes, this group is all about consultation,  helping a club to long term plan. They are not day-to-day managers in the sense of being CEO.

Whoahhh slow down. Some people have absolutely no idea.

The role of the Chief Executive Officer in a small club like ours is very hands on. Don’t think for a minute that it’s sort of top business role with an army of staff doing all of the donkey work. Let me assure you that there is no ivory towerism when it comes to being CEO at GTFC. No posh office, in fact it’s merely a desk in the main office with the rest of the staff, where the CEO can see and hear everything that takes place daily, and get involved with all sorts of tasks.

As CEO’s goes, Ian is top notch. A great person who works incredibly hard for our club every day.
