As I recall it was said at the outset that Jo wasn't here for the long term.  So how do you have a long term project when you won't be there ?

It seems Bal is struggling with the short term. So I don't think we should be worrying about the midterm let alone the long term
What if the Hokey Cokey really is what it's all about ?

I think this might be a case of someone being awkward! Obviously the shares held by Blue and Gold Holdings will have be surrendered and transferred. The fans have not been privy to what agreement or contract was made between the two parties and my guess is it might well have not been watertight. I don't think Joe and Bal can do much until this is resolved, hence in my opinion, the delay and ambiguity. Let's hope it is resolved soon as all this speculation does nothing for the club and us fans.

Not sure about this. Pretty much keeping Joe as interim manager if/when things take a nosedive. Next 4 or so matches are absolutely crucial now. Lose on Saturday and not winning at Worksop will certainly call into question the judgement of keeping Joe on and not finding an experienced replacement.

However, I'm prepared to give this a go and see what happens. We have a good, young squad that asked a lot of questions of Scunthorpe last weekend and we are playing exciting and entertaining football (compared to the borefest that was served up for large parts of last season). Onto Saturday we go  :scarf:  :scarf:

What exactly is 'the project?'

The forum never fails to make me smile. Only last week certain people were trying to kick up a storm about the Club because they didnt make a knee jerk reaction to the managerial situation and took time to review the best way forward as any good business person would do. And now the Club have come out and announced how we are going forward the same people who advocated giving Joe a more prolonged chance to prove himself have suggested that a week by week basis isnt good enough.
I guess if he had been given a lengthy contract or magically conjured up a new manager sitting on the shelf just waiting for the chance to come to Lynn without paying a fee like we did for Lakeland that wouldnt have been acceptable either.
And by the way it costs more to train and Lynn sport than Ely so please check your facts before misleading people.

And there we were thinking that was an accepted practice these days!

Many thanks for pointing this out Vera. Anything else you think is incorrect ?
