Big clubs with loads of money go on tour to make even more money,

Sadly we would not make any money in fact it would cost us money we do not have,

MJ needs all the money we have to get in the players he needs and to keep the ones we have,

So local games v Cleethorpes and Grimsby Brigg ect with the odd game against higher teams,

Maybe Burnley will come for a game that would be good.

Depends on how  strong in the relationship is between Errea and the club.

called They facilitate a tour of Italy playing Other partnered clubs?

if the club were to offer a package deal at travel hotel et cetera and the excess help pay for the tour.. simple.

Northern Ireland is porentially a good shout too.

Quoted from Abdul19
How about Devon for the Errea Cup, after the success of the 2009 one?

Can't see it being Ireland as they're mid season then.


I'm not sure what my favourite part of that thing was - Town having to abandon their participation in case a load of angry Luton supporters stormed the pitch and started fighting Newell, or an on-trial Nathan Arnold being our stand-out performer by miles, only for Newell to let him go because CLEARLY Nathan Jarman, Adrian Forbes and Chris Jones (ffs) were better attacking options

Wasn’t it said that the pre-season tour to Devon was probably more expensive than going abroad last year?


Devon, ffs. How Brexit is it to stay in the UK for a pre-season tour?

With Humberside Airport within our area, it's a pity we can't negotiate some sort of sponsorship deal with Eastern Airways with its HQ based there.

Richard Lake the CEO is from Louth, chairman Bryan Huxford previously was on the Grimsby Town board and had over 40,000 shares was born in Grimsby.  Not sure what sort of sponsorship could be provided, but say we get a free season tour to somewhere in Europe (flights / accommodation) for advertising at the ground, maybe beneficial for both parties?

So will the Swedish clubs and we managed a couple of games there in July 2001.

Quoted from AndyDarloFC
We're off to PSV in the summer, paid for by our sponsors. Fair dos' we'll get battered about 10-0.

Personally can't wait for a few days on the lash with all the fans. Then the players and management are coming out on the urine on the night after the game  

Get the Grimsby Telegraph to sponsor your tour to Sweden.


With our club's relationship with local media?!

Just plucking figures out of thin air here but if it costs £50k to take the team somewhere glamorous on tour or £20k for a week away in this country what would you prefer?

In my opinion that £30k could be better spent and be the difference between McKeown staying or going.
