Doesn’t matter where you sit people, what the acoustics are like or whether you’re standing or sitting - problem is the ground is full of miserable old killjoys, geriatrics who spend most of the match moaning about how things were better in the 70s and those who do make an atmosphere are split between groups who want to sing different things.

Typical Town. We’ve just sat back after starting with a good attendance and let other clubs just bring who they want. The owners need to get their head out the sand. We should be getting 9k every game.
Problem is Chaos £20 plus is a lot to watch a game of football in the bottom basement and even if you get a season ticket some people will have commitments like work and family and for some wives/ girlfriends they hate the football and would prefer their men to spend quality time with them when the time is available. Better to marry someone that likes football. Problem solved 🙂.

I don't understand why some fans think "that's a problem, so that is a no to that suggestion. "
All problems have solutions, often quite simple ones.
It's not just the fans of the football club. I hate saying it but it's a small town mentality. Nothing changes in Grimsby or the surrounding areas because the people don't want it. It's far easier to moan about something constantly rather than doing something about it. People will moan all day and night about a lack of investment in the town, wasted spending by the council, inefficient services etc. yet either vote for the same dross on the local council or not at all. It's almost as if as a result of years of not having nice, new and exciting developments the population has been gaslight into believing they don't deserve anything nice and find excuses to prevent it.

You wish Rick, my wife used to come to any game I went to when we were dating, knew who the players were etc. Once married she has not been to one game and moans on and off about time and money I spend being a Town fan. They are like a turkey farmers at Christmas, they lay down a trail of seed and we go peck peck peck along until suddenly your walking out of the church and thats it mate

Try to come to a compromise though Madeley eg two games a month is your downtime and then give her two saturdays eg take her her out somewhere nice like the theatre or a meal .

It all depends on what the owners' intentions are but if no substantial improvements are in the pipeline there is a lot they can to maximise what we've got with some ingenuity.
I ain't sitting on nobodys knee.

I hadn't thought of that to be fair, but now you mention it.. Some knees are better than others mind. First come first served!
