The reason for asking is that I never get any reply when contacting the club by mail.
I have now sent the club a mail for the third time - every time it has been concerning different matters, but this time I feel I need a reply.
I may be too quick here as my last mail was sent on tuesday, but when I never got a reply on my two previous mails I feel a little unsure if this one will ever be answered.

Every time I send a mail to the club it is nothing I do lightly, but it is because I want, or think I can, help the club in some way or the other.
It worries me that no-one sends me any reply, and I wonder how many others are experiencing the same? If it is just me, then so be it, but there could be lost opportunities for the club if several other people experience the same as me.

Now, there could be a perfectly good reason for why no one is giving me any response - I can think of several:

1. My mail goes right in the trash mail. It happens - that is why you should check your trash mail once in a while.
2. As an Norwegian citizen, my English may be hard to understand for those who possibly read my mail.
3. No one checks the mail or feel they have the responsibility for it in their job description?
4. My questions or suggestions are too hard to answer - so it is better to just let it be and hope it goes away.
5. They think that I am mad. Please stay away and don`t give me any ideas by answering.
6. Other?

For those who wonder - this time I have sent a mail to academy-recruitment@gtfc.co.uk , but earlier (in 2013 and 2017) I have sent mail to dale@gtfc.co.uk without any reply.

Anyone else experiencing this or is it just me?

Best wishes to any and all Grimsby Town supporter - this season will be much brighter than the last!! Up the Mariners!

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

They don't take suggestions as the club is run perfectly.

Probably a combination of 3 and 4.

I suspect also 7 is at play too.

7. The club, despite the best efforts of certain individuals, have an attitude that the fans are an inconvenience rather than an asset.

We do but he blocked a variety of fans and only speaks with chosen fans!

The scene is set from the top and followed to the letter

If you do get a reply it will probably say:
What kind of Norwegian are you?
Are you looking forward to reading this reply?
How did this e-mail come about?

Definitely not number 2 Geir, but could be any of 3, 4 or 5. Could maybe try going via the Mariners Trust?
