OK, it sounds like Fenlon is NOT going to resign. Incredibly, he just thinks it was bad luck.
I posted this comment on another thread but feel it's worth a thread of its own.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If he doesn't resign and isn't sacked, we really need to start thinking what we as fans can do to get rid. We really need to make our feelings known.
...........
We slagged off Hearts fans for inaction during the demise of their club. We need to do something to show we care and make change happen.
What do you intend to do?

Vote with your feet.
Not something I normally advocate but enough is enough.

Good idea. Would everybody be willing to do that?
I'm absolutely serious here. I don't want this to be just Internet talk, I want to make this happen.
What else can we do in the meantime, to try to get him out even sooner, if possible?

I think Pat is doing all he can, he will hang on for a two more games I foresee and then he will either go or we be winning. I think he will be by September though based on recent showings. Originally Posted by keekaboo

Petrie may not understand the importance of winning and playing good football but when the revenue starts to drop off he will take action.

Guys, please don't turn this into an attempt at comedy. This is really serious.
As I mentioned earlier, if we do nothing, we're no better than the Hearts fans who presided over the demise of their club.
Did you laugh at them and their in-action? Guess what, they're now laughing at you.

Sounds desperate. Dont think our squad is too bad - Is better than most of the teams who have been finishing above us. Unfortunately the main thing wrong is our manager.

There's no point in him hanging around until September. I don't know how much cash hibs have for transfers but a new manager must get some time with the transfer window still open to sort out the problems we have. Originally Posted by spike220

I dont know how serious you are but if this happens I'd be there. The club is slowly dying and its time the supporters stood up. Originally Posted by PacoLuna

I would really like to know how we do. Trouble is this imposter will not do the decent thing and admit he is way out of his depth and resign. He will hang on and go with a big pay off, disgusting! I'm a bed wetter and knee jerker by the way and have been for a long while now. We need to give managers time but we should give that time to the right man, not a part time rookie at this level. He is dragging us down to lower levels than I could ever have imagined. Get rid now before we are too far into the season for someone else to turn things around Originally Posted by keekaboo

Yep, I won't be using my season ticket until both the manager and Petrie are gone. Petrie should have had the bawz to sack Felon after Malmo but he's sat on his hands again just like he did with Calderwood. Originally Posted by Pretty Boy

Sory mate, I just wasn't sure about the standing outside ER at 7:30 and I've seen the way some previous threads have gone (guilty myself).
Apologies if I picked that up wrong.

I know I'll get pelters for this as I'm not one best placed to organise some kind of protest, due to my location (Munich), but anyway.
Is there anyone out there that is willing to take this on locally and get something done? Someone to organise things.
I'm prepared to do the best I can from here and also to help out where possible but I'm limited by being located so far away.
I'm quite prepared to take any stick coming my way (feel free, I don't care as long as we do what's best for our club) for starting this thread, knowing that I'm relying on other people but somebody had to start the discussion.

The only way you will get change at Easter Road is to go back to good old fashion protesting, if the fans protest outside the main stand instead of key board bashing, nothing will change. Our present team is worst than last season, we played a weaker Motherwell side and got beat, we play a youth Hearts team and got beat, where is the improvement, there is none, but unless the fans go on mass to the main stand on Saturday against UTD nothing will change, we will continue to play the worst football I have seen in many a year and the board will survive because we would all rather have a rant behind a key board than get of our bums and do something about it

A protest against Fenlon? Petrie? Farmer?
for me, Fenlon. He is the first manager since McLeish to be given some cash to splash so he cant plead the poverty. To be fair to Petrie he has clearly loosened the purse strings.

The simplest thing to do is a mass email to the board by season ticket holders saying the will not renew next season if Fenlon is not sacked this week. What would also help is a new poll, on Fenlon out. The old one is now defunct & a new poll will be picked up by the press.

A thread should be made about this so people know about it. Wait until a bit later to make one so when the board has calmed down a bit, so that the thread dosent get pushed down. Originally Posted by keekaboo

I'm not a season ticket holder but get to a majority of homes games in a season. I dont think I can bring myself to back to ER with him in charge anymore, certainly wont be there for the Dundee Utd game.
The way I feel at the moment, even if Alex Ferguson came out of retirement to take charge I would be struggling to attend right now.
I realise that not buying tickets affects the club more than anything but I do think plummeting attendances are a clear way of getting a message to the board.

In all seriousness Don't Go To Easter Road. Boycott. This is the only way Farmer might react to the erses in charge.

OK, we can come back to this tomorrow and, if he hasn't gone yet, and make definite plans. I'm not going to let this one go.

I know mate. I probably phrased my reply incorrectly. Originally Posted by spike220

The thing is I think you're probably right. If we're not looking like getting relegated it's cheaper for the board to let him see out his contract than sack him now and employ someone else.
Pay offs are a joke. If i ***** at my job I'd be sacked without any cash!
