Sorry but the marketing is and always has been dogsh1t  


So I guess you are saying there is a lot of marketing around the Streets surrounding Blundell Park  


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'

Sorry but the marketing is and always has been dogsh1t and without a shadow of a doubt GTFC take the support for granted. A ground with a home capacity so small could easily have been sold out every game last season but from the minute the final whistle went and we had gained Promotion NOTHING.  


Have to disagree....this season for instance....the club has marketed the S.T by proudly announcing as one reason to have one is:

that by buying a season ticket you are guaranteed your seat for every league home game of the season....


i had never realised that before in the 40 odd years of going to B.P....that pretty much is a deal clincher for me and so happy that the club are now including this as part of the marketing...

Lots of commercial strategy and marketing experts on here all of a sudden, the sooner we start signing players and kicking balls the better, once the FL contracts have run out on the 30th we should see some activity

Many moaning will still buy a season ticket as they'll want a chance of a Lincoln/Mansfield/Chesterfield away tickets etc.. etc. or indeed a home cup ticket if we get a good draw or by some miracle put a run together.

In the eyes of some whatever the club does is wrong and everything Lincoln does is right which will only truly be proved when the season starts.

I  sure people at GTFC care and are working hard for the betterment of the team so for a while at least can we cut them some slack and allow them to get on with it I wonder?

Quite. I really don't see any relevance as to what the Gimps are doing and why some are so obsessed with them. When we've got 6 points off them, perhaps it'll stop.

I'm as unimpressed by certain aspects of the club as you are but I happen to have far more faith in a manager who is far more time-served in the Football League than the one who left. Let's face it, matters off the pitch will remain in Mr Fenty's control, so we can do buggerall about it other than enjoy the ride.

Agree with what The Old Codger says....

My optimism is based upon "let's see where we start and end the football season" the football bit is quite important isn't it?

Let the admin staff get on with the admin and get behind Russ and whatever squad he assembles, that's what supporters do.

We are not Blackpool, Orient, Charlton etc.. we have a board that allthough may not be the wealthiest and make many a PR gaff actually care about the club.
