Unhappy Ollie to make a statement (merged)

If Holloway comes out and defends the board and urges them not to sell to Shutes Stockwood and Petitt then he can just intercourse off

I wonder if Fenty has told Ollie that he’s selling up to Shutes. I don’t disbelieve him when he says he came here for the fan, but he came here primarily to work for Fenty and because he was given overall control of all footballing matters. I doubt a new owner would be so willing to have a manager wielding so much influence over the core activity of the business.

Time will tell, but this sounds like someone looking for a get-out clause from his current position.

It doesn't surprise me in the least, this was always about Holloway and nothing to do with GTFC.

I don't like the idea of looking for a new manager, though, it rarely solves the problem but I think Holloway has run out of ideas and wants a way out.

I keep getting red crosses for saying this but never mind I will say it again sorry I can not say my souce.

Ollie had a agreement that after he finished in management he would be the chairman and owner of the club.

Whether Fenty told him he would sell his shares of give them to Ollie I do not know.

Selling the club to Shutes  means that deal is off if that is what happening.

So I expect Ollie to walk and leave us in the excrement.

We might find out later.

Great week of preparation for the scunny game. Well done to all involved...

Flat caps...buy one get one free !!  

This club is a shambles. Top to bottom

Well with the nuclear bomb about to go off it seems like a lot of people are looking for a get out clause at the minute. This deal if it ever goes through would provide it but would depend on if the Fenty faction's position is as weak as it seems now. During the last round of meetings they had a much stronger position to throw a spanner in the works if they don't get things done their way.

As for Holloway, he doesn't need us. He has a TV career where his off the wall rants and personality play much better than in the backwaters of the North-East coastline. As for if we need him many will say we don't but have little realistic suggestions and ideas on who would be better than what we have. Could throw another total unknown at the wall and see what happens, could employ an experienced manager again that is out of touch with the modern game and players.

Tbh I think most who want Holloway gone probably think putting Dave Moore in charge is a good idea because from Grimsby. Maybe we should give Neil Woods another crack at it? With a squad of promising young players he won't have the excuse that he was left with dross and no money so we can see what he's got.

Which is exactly where we were when he arrived only its a bit deeper this time with a excrement squad he has assembled

Does anyone really believe or even think that Holloway thought he would A) be chairman and B) own the club?

Total balderdash from day one

Please NO!  Promoting from within doesn't work for us, look at what happened the last time Woods was in charge!
