Quoted from grimsby pete
According to the telegraph over £30,000 taken,

The club are hoping for 3,000 but say anything over 2,500 would be good,

That equates to 140 tickets sold.

150 new applicants so far have requested a pack.


Do you work for the PR department by any chance Pete ....hard selling like that will get you to the top in no time

The club make the same mistakes every year , we should be making big name early signings to get the punters interested, Instead we wait until a week before the seaosn starts and take the dregs

I'll be getting mine just as soon as the DFS sofa sale finishes  


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Quoted from HertsGTFC
You pay tax or VAT as it would be on ticket sales at the same percentage so though we would have paid more VAT we would also have made more profit which heading into a season where the we need to show some ambition would have been useful wouldn't it?

Stop and think about it would putting them on sale earlier necessarily mean more sales? You are either going to get one or not going to get one regardless of the cost. In reality unless clubs slash prices or have a promotion/near miss and cup run season the term before most clubs sales stay at a similar level each year, our level appears to be in between 2500 and 3000.

What has fuelled this thread is the fact that Lincoln went early and have sold a lot, FFS people even criticised GTFC for freezing prices and warning of a "potential" increase in 18/19

The Gimps went early for one reason only and that is if The Cowley's had left before they went on sale they may have struggled to hit the numbers they have done




Ours always go on sale early nothing to do with the Cowleys'.

It is good business to get as much money in as soon as possible. Customers are fickle and can soon change there mind. If I had some money sat waiting for a season ticket I know my wife would soon be looking for a "better" use for it.
I think it shows how very naive the management of the club is
