The general feeling around Gtfc seems so positive nowadays. The last time I felt this way was 98 are we in for another golden period ?

I'm certainly enjoying the football more than i have done for years and years. Pre non league and most of non league was dire, with very little skills or excitement on show most games.

Great to be a Town fan Goodness knows we have suffered probably since the day we beat Liverpool 1-2 at Anfield but were on the way back now.Hopefully we can kick on over the next 2-3 years and be looking forward to a new ground etc.What would be a good start is a gate over 5k on Saturday we really need to get bums on seats at home I think the away support looks after itself but we need BP to be a fortress.UTM

I think we could average 7/8 k with a new stadium week in week out I can only see great times ahead

We are fickle arent we ?

Roll back only a few weeks and there was a consensus building that the club was heading for disaster, Mighty Mariner gate, PR gaffes, no defenders, ground will never be built.....but 7 points out of 9 and its.....we will be in the Premier League before you know it

And to state the obvious, as implied above, it is the home attendances which are vital to the club's wellbeing. GTFC does not benefit financially from its huge away following, though of course the support inspires the team away from BP. I would add that promotion from the Conference came at exactly the right moment, following on from the Operation Promotion money-raising initiative orchestrated by the Trust. In the game of counter-factuals, had we not been promoted at the end of last season after so much enthusiasm in the wake of defeat by Bristol Rovers at Wembley, our decline might well have continued into further obscurity. Thankfully that didn't happen and now we have a terrific opportunity to progress if the home support can be increased further. Right now, I'm enjoying the ride, watching some richly entertaining, and at times, thrilling football. Long may it continue.

I'm sure it was fixed that we took an age to get promoted out that league. Sides like Alfreton and Southport got almost their entire away support revenue from us.


I've wasted my life in black and white, a pathetic act for a worthless cause

Amazing what happens when we try and get the ball down and try and play some decent stuff.
