Amended.  ;)

Yes, we are a club so far ahead of the game we use modern pens and paper to manage our season ticket sales.

“The club is so brilliantly run. The best I have ever seen – it really is. We are so ahead of the game it is unbelievable,”

Clever tactics from Ollie.

Positioning the club as the best he has been at in those terms - music to the ears of out of contract players looking for security.

Lots of other factors of course but still good for future players to know we are well run in these difficult times.

A rare plaudit for Mr. Fenty.

Nice to read.I also think its a well supported lower league club where the predominant of fans are working class who appreciate a hard working player .Hence the area is a bit run down but the football club gives joy to many .

All those years being careful with finances could be paying off now with the current situation and with the possible wage cap being put in place. Having done this for years we're ahead of the curve!

I actually thought the same when he came out with that soon after Harry’s desire to own a lower league club. You never know what’s happening behind the scenes.

Sandbanks to cleethorpes would be a bit of culture shock for Harry I think.

Because when you think about running a club on solid financial principles you immediately think Harry Redknapp...

I doubt Town could afford the increase in large brown envelopes!

No surprise I suppose but in today's Telegraph Ollie admitted if new owners came in he would have to rethink his own position.

Clearly hoping someone will buy his shares when the novelty of being the GTFC manager  wears off and he goes

Yes. Fewer mammaries on jetskis, and none of that tasteless blue glazing that is popular down there.*

* I remember when Sandbanks was still nice 😆
