For what it's worth, I don't think the 'focus on getting a permanent ground' is relevant, no. I'm not sure the effort required to negotiate a return to Fetcham Grove (or KGF, or anywhere more local) would even 1% detract from the prospect of getting a permanent ground (in part because progress on that front is so slow anyway.)
If I'm several years from being able to afford a property of my own, and I'm renting a flat that I don't like, I'd look to rent somewhere better in the meantime.
That said, while I would personally prefer a return to Fetcham (nicer ground, better atmosphere, better matchday experience overall), I'm not convinced it would make a significant difference to our general attendance / prospects / morale.
That's just a hunch. But the idea we shouldn't bother to think about where we are currently playing, when we'll probably be groundsharing somewhere for another half a decade or so at least, strikes me as a bit naive.
