Just to confirm this is being launched by the Grimsby Telegraph tomorrow morning, both in paper and online. Everything should make sense then and hopefully people will understand why it's taken a few days to get sorted!

I really hope the fans really get behind the campaign. If we shift an extra 250 season tickets and raise 50k from the fundraising via trust membership and various trust initiatives. What an massive impact we could have on the season before it even starts and sign that extra bit of quality to separate us from the rest

Now time to put money were your mouth is

Lets get thisup & running and smash the target

With the generous £ for £ matching from the Mullens a minimum of £40k can make a difference to #operationpromotion

Quoted from KingstonMariner


Why not point it out? Some people might not have twigged it.

I knew what you was suggesting was a way to bring in cash early. But it's a dangerous strategy in my view. It's risky because promotion might not come and you've spunked all the money. Even if you win promotion you still might not get enough money the following season to compensate for the loss of the (pre-paid) season tickets, and you will probably have to pay higher wages to boot. And to cap it all the club's sold season tickets at 2015 prices when it might need to raise prices in 2016, so just when it really needs to raise more money its hands are tied.

No, mortgaging the future is a nicht nicht.


It's about present cashflow and risk v reward.   If a customer wants to pay for longer term 'membership' today, that is attractive to most vendors of any goods and services.

By extending your logic, even a regular annual season ticket is the wrong kind of lock-in, a "nicht nicht".

Anyhow - I'm saving my pennies for the Trust pledge this week.
