Up on YouTube and via Gills Facebook and Twitter accounts. 15 minute interview. A very good listen.
He speaks very well. Has ambitions to get the club back to the Championship. Admits the whole club needs rebooting post-covid and a lot more staff recruited for the general running of the stadium and selling events and advertising etc.
A bit vague on whether he has the authority to sign players without Scally’s agreement, he did say Paul would be kept in the loop on everything.
Gills Horse will be angry!And, he mentioned the self serve pumps will possibly never happen. A running joke that can be put to bed hopefully.
Great interview, yet still idiots on twitter slag him and Scally off.
Can't these people realise that as club we can't move until people drop this pettiness.
Possibly because Scally hasn't decided that yet.I would think at this moment he will need Scally's blessing for anything major spending wise.That may well continue. But employing a extra ticket seller or advertising staff etc will be down to him.Scally will of course want to know the weekly figures etc.A bit vague on whether he has the authority to sign players without Scally’s agreement, he did say Paul would be kept in the loop on everything.
Very refreshing. An acknowledgement that the fan experience can be improved. Thats a start.

That is what I particularly took from it <improving fan experience> Obviously, he is not going to criticise what went before, but he sees many avenues for improvement.
…. And being a good listener?
Well done, PS for appointing PF. So far, looks like a clever move.
Thats a cracking interview, he comes across very well……….Fisher seems to be ambitious without being unrealistic and making silly promises.
These are all good points.Hadn’t thought about that “realistic” bit. But thinking about it, he did say he thinks the Medway Towns deserves a Championship club, and I’d agree with that. It’s a very realistic aim.
We have proved before we can get to and stay there. Granted, it would need some decent investment to achieve it, but it’s doable.
But it’s not the pie-in-the-sky dream of becoming a Prem club, which frankly would require the sort of investment only an extremely wealthy benefactor could achieve. A la Bournemouth or Brentford.
I personally would be happy to see the sort of level achieved that maybe similar sized clubs have done recently. Peterboro, Rotherham, Luton, Lincoln, Oxford etc. These clubs are more than competitive in L1 and maybe having some times in The Championship. And they are achieving that on approx 10k crowds give or take a few thou. We can definitely do that even in our current guise. And we looked capable of it just 6 years ago.
If we can achieve that, then we can look forward to maybe progressing further in a shiny new 20k capacity stadium after that.
Oh Lord. Stop me from getting ahead of myself please….
