Maybe we should launch a similar membership scheme to Lincoln's....... "The club have today launched the ‘My Imps’ membership scheme, aimed at those fans who do not have the means or desire to purchase a season ticket. The scheme, which came out at the same time as the ‘on the gate’ prices, is aimed at fans who can only attend a handful of games a season. The scheme will cost £10 per season, but offers a £2 per match discount on tickets. If you intend to come to five matches or more, it make sense to become a My Imps member " https://staceywest.net/2018/07/20/myimps-membership-scheme-launches-at-sincil-bank/

Do we still do the early bird prices until 12:30 at £2 off? This offer also has no annual cost.

This was suggested years ago. Too innovative for Town.

Unfortunately we can only dream of a board with such imagination.

Not as good an offer as it seams...........
23 league games at Lincoln @ full price = £506 23 league games at Lincoln with "MyGimps" = £470 (Saving £46 less £10 = £36)
23 league games at Grimsby @ full price = £483 23 league game with "Early Bird" = £437 (Saving £46)
Based on Stacey West and Pontoon/Lower Youngs

Erroneous comparison. The early bird discount commits you to over £400. The MyGimps thing allows people the flexibility if they can't afford a season ticket. They're not going to go to 23 league games.

Not the same thing at all. I have a go at the club because it's made so many mistakes and missed opportunities.

Season ticket holder for the last few seasons.....so does this mean if I buy my ticket on the day before 12.30 I get £2 off ?

The early bird discount is also a term used by the club for those that buy tickets from when they are released on sale up until 2 hours before kick off. It is the same offer Lincoln have just introduced but we don't charge people £10 for the privilege and have been doing it for years now. Been said many times before but we need to understand the working patterns of our fan base. At any point of the season, fans should be able to specify 5 games they can attend and buy tickets at a discounted rate similar to the discount a season ticket offers.

Oh right. I stand corrected. Thought he was talking about the early bird discount on STs.

The reason its been done is we only have limited general sale tickets ,so being in a membership scheme with a priority makes sense. The smaller the away following the better it is for our fans as more tickets are available. It is mainly for exiles and people who work a lot of Saturdays so can't make all the games you also get a fiver voucher for the club shop.

But they already can go to those 5 games with a £10 discount, whereas at Lincoln, you'd end up paying the full price. Jesus, anything to have a go at the club and look up to the forward thinking imps that have just introduced a worse scheme than us, years later and get praised for it...

Plus the other saving is you only have to watch the knuckle draggers once with the early bird

At no point was I having a go at the club. I just think that a five game commitment should be better rewarded than a one game commitment bought on the morning of a match.

Yes you can get £2 off every game by buying 3 hrs or so before a game. (Except Upper Youngs)
