Must say i'm a bit surprised and more than a little disappointed there are no offers on for this weekend to pack the park. I just don't get it and the crowd will be down significantly from the last game, without all those away fans and those that turned up for free/cheap for the last two games. If they think a disco set from your worst nightmare wedding reception is going to suffice, i think they are making a huge miscalculation.

I really don't get the thinking behind our board. So much but no more seems to be their modus operandi. Something that worked so well for the last 2 home games has just been abandoned, with arguably a bigger game than Chesterfield coming up.

Poor!

Dare I say devaluing the product just before you attempt to put up prices on season tickets and matchday tickets

I get what you’re saying but won’t there be a big crowd anyway given that it’s a massive game? No point the club offering discounted tickets if we’re going to get a decent gate anyway, or am I missing something?


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!"

There may be, there may not. Depends if all those who took advantage of recent offers return. That's the thing though isn't it, being left to chance. If you are proactive, you make sure there will be a full house, not hope for one.

The game is such a big one everyone who is associated with GTFC should be there supporting them.  They've done and tried the discount and it only added 800 or so on the gate,

They should be looking to attract the kids for free in my eyes. After last weekend surely folk would want to return???

No other offer should be needed  UTM

It was our first win in 20 games, if that doesn’t draw everyone back (along with it being one of our biggest games of the season) I don’t know what will!

Kids are our future so I hope the club do a really good deal for them next season,

Something like a season ticket for £23 when bought with an adult one.

There would probably be a population explosion, in Grimsby / Cleethorpes and surrounding areas,  at this offer, in less than a year's time. Good for the economy, maybe.
