Anyone else..

...not that arsed that the season starts in less than two weeks? This isn’t a go at Town! Not sure whether the quick turnaround from almost daily football from the World Cup or the best summer in ages is to blame but I reckon I could wait another month for footy.

I'm struggling for enthusiasm. Last season took it's toll on me, and i really found it a strain to keep going until the end. I've not bought a season ticket, probably won't do now, and for the first time i can remember, i'm not looking forward to the kick off. I'm still ar$ed off at the board bringing back Slade and then sanctioning the sale or transfer of the sides better footballers, and bringing in so many loan players, we couldn't even name them all in the match day squad. Add to that the fiasco of the fans forum, a board member telling the punters to shut up, the whole chicken tray trophy saga and accusations of bullying. The Stevenage thing, the Port Vale game that ended in a near riot, Fentygate tapes, etc etc. I'm sure there's more that i've missed, but years of crap football and all the off field sh1te is starting to take it's toll.

Started to get the bug back again at the end of last season , but average signings so far have blunted that  and the money i sort of labeled
for a season ticket has stayed where it has got more interest,

Can't wait but on holiday the old boot booked during season again , sure she does it on purpose ?

Certainly little enthusiasm at present and many of the reasons are detailed in the two OP's on this thread.
The lack of drum banging from the club not just for season tickets, but the new season in general could have improved the situation for me. These days people have lots of other demands on not only their money, but their time. If a business wants your time and money they need to show you why you should give of it.

Got a season ticket, but already know there are at least 6 or 7 home games I will miss but I aren't bothered about it tbh

Yeah, got to admit I'm hardly buzzing for the season to start.

I'm not quite in the negative camp but the two pre-season games I've seen so far didn't exactly inspire me.  They probably shouldn't anyway but normally I've had a bit of a buzz from the games, something to make me look forward to the games,  Be it a new signing or the way we've out performed a bigger side, anything really.  This summer we don't really look settled into a system, yet anyway.  Equally so none of our signings are exactly hairs on the back of the neck types either.  I'm not saying we should be signing names we know or crave, that doesn't work more often than not.  The only 'name' we've signed in John Welsh looks a bit flat so far.

I'm sure it'll come good and I can't say I'm concerned for the season. I just expected to be more excited at this point than I actually am.

I'm struggling for enthusiasm. Last season took it's toll on me, and i really found it a strain to keep going until the end. I've not bought a season ticket, probably won't do now, and for the first time i can remember, i'm not looking forward to the kick off.

It's a horrible feeling Ginny. I've got enthusiasm for the management team and I've got enthusiasm for the players but I've got nothing but contempt for the people who run the club and how they go about things. They have ground me down to a point where I can't see a bright long term future for the club I love. They've been in charge far too long doing the same awful things and openly very unapologetic about it as if they're the best thing that's happened to the club and we the fans are far too thick to see it. One appearance in the third round of the FA Cup and not a single finish above 14th in the fourth tier of English football since 2006 and the total lack of new investment or progress on the new stadium tells me all I need to know about their performance without listing gaffe after gaffe or lecture after lecture. I'm beyond bored and frustrated with the lack of off-field progression. Makes me so conflicted when I think of GTFC as a whole.

Having said that, just ordered my i-follow for the season as Jolley and the team deserve my support from afar.. UTM.

A really good couple of signings would do the trick for me.

Other than buying the new shirt, I've not really thought about the new season at all.  I'll admit I'm still suffering from a World Cup hangover.  I LOVED the World Cup, loved the fact that the England team (that I personally had faith in when most didn't) did well (even though we should have made the final), and I'm still not over it.  It's still raw for me, and this season is coming too fast, I'm just not ready for 9 months of League 2 toil again.

Having said that, I'll jolt out of my malaise pretty soon, and hopefully some good results will do the same to most fans.

I think the lack of a big signing has done for most fans' enthusiasm.

Having said this, lets all be grateful this isn't another Conference season ahead of us!  How Wrexham fans feel nowadays, for example, I just don't know.  6 years was bad enough.  Never again.

With me it's the trepidation off having another crap season, at least if it hasn't started we are not fighting a relegation battle, on the other hand, we could storm the league so bring it on. Just wish I had a crystal ball.
