"It is a three-year project at this club and then we take stock"
What does he mean by that as well? I assume the relates to his previous statement reference "it'll be a failure if we're not in the Championship within three years". |

This immediately made me think of Barry Fry, if that happened I'd go a bit mental.

No I think he's saying that we have a three year plan, then at the end of that period we have a look at what went well, what went not so well and make plans for the future.

I assume he means that he is not clueless and he knows what is required - but let's hope he does not want to be a 'hands on' chairman and decide when the team is not doing so well to tell the manager which players he should be buying and picking, I don't think he will be like that from what I have heard from him so far.

"It is a tree-year project at this club and then we take stock"
What does he mean by that as well? Think it means Fitton is going to measure time in tree years.....bit like you can get cat and dog years. If he uses the Bristlecone pine, he'll be around a while. |

The bloke won't waste his own money by having a football management role - and more to the point, he won't have the time. I think he's just showing that decisions will be made for financial reasons with football in mind - not as previously, for no reason with nothing in mind

I think it is typical Swindon supporters though, we are used to every statement having a hidden agenda behind them so we are genuinelly inquisitive, it will take time to remove this from every Swindon Supporters nature but in time we will learn to trust what we are told and not worry about it albeit with one eye kept on things to ensure it is done correctly. Until that time I'm sure we will continue to read statements and try and work out what they mean in a not so good way and get the reasoning totally wrong. I'm sure that Mr Fitton understands this though and in the fullness of time will fully release his plans to supporters and I also think he will embrace the help of supporters in certain matters, but there will always be things that we don't know about - that is football everywhere. I would imagine once everything is settled then Mr Fitton will be more than happy to hold an open fan's forum (for every fan - unlike the last lot who restricted it) and explain things fully to us all. In the mean time let's continue to work out what his riddles mean  |

Maybe Fitton will take the teamtalk on a 747 bound back to the states and parachute our players into the opposing teams ground just before kick off? Sounds to me like hes got about a thousand jobs on his plate already. Theyve had talks with Ling. New Ron Noades, not likely is it!?  |
