Anyone know if the Mariners Trust open evening with John Fenty will be streamed live tomorrow ?
Not live streamed but will be available to view on the GTFC you tube channel from Wednesday.

For an event which has had a right panning on social media we have had absolutely masses of questions. It is therefore unlikely over a two hour period people asking multiple questions will get them all heard. The event is all about the future of GTFC so from a purely personal point of view as someone who will be attending I hope the focus is on what is to come-not on what has gone before.

Absolutely Barra but you should know from reading this site some posters will keep going over the same ground, ad nauseum!

Completly agree. Wasted energy now on what has gone. There seems a collective will now to look forward and just as we have given the team the chance to progress and develop I hope we use the evening to give JF the time to discuss how the board are trying to move the club forward. Fingers crossed on this one!

Totally agree with last 3 posters. Past is the past it can't be changed. The present and future is what really matters so we need to all pull together in the same direction. I think most of us can see that we are on the threshold of this club moving forward in a really good way. The best way to get where we need to go is by being together. The future is bright.

Some of JF's rambling responses can go on for 15 mins so i imagine very few questions will have time to be asked.

Unless you’re expecting the bar staff to work for free...
Anyhow, can’t get there tomorrow so just fired my questions over but not expecting to hear them asked.
- Can you give the profile of the average GTFC season ticket holder, and what are the club actively doing to understand or target other, untapped markets?
- Away fixtures in previous years have shown the club has a disproportionately large exiled-fanbase. With NE Lincs one of only 15 local authorities forecasting a decline in population in the next 10 years, what are the club doing to bring exiles home on a matchday?
- Around £400,000 has been used to service directors loans in the last 2 years. Do you expect repayments to continue at this rate and do you have a timeframe in mind for when directors’ loans will be eliminated?
- What do the club have in place to ensure the philosophy discussed at Michael Jolley’s appointment remains in place should he unexpectedly leave the club. i.e. will we revert to the Slades, Newells & Vernons of this world if Jolley walks under the 3F tomorrow?
- Football-related disorder has been virtually non-existent in recent years though GTFC fans are constantly subject to restrictive kick-off times and ticketing policies. Will the club, either through SLO or Safety Officer begin to use an evidenced-based approach to advocating on behalf of fans?
- A programme of stadium works is being undertaken at Blundell Park currently. Given any relocation is some years away, and taking into account developments nationally, will the club revisit the idea of introducing a safe-standing area at BP, in the interests of fan experience?
This should be a priority and any new stadium should include safe standing - admission price set accordingly.

But surely we’ve gained 20 minutes by losing the PowerPoint presentation. 🤔

I jokingly remarked 'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football' 'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked She said 'Well you already know how to play football' |

Is it that easy to look forward when so many questions from the past are left unanswered. Both the trust and the board haven’t answered the big questions asked of them in the last few years. Last year’s Fans Forum was a horror show and lots of the same questions still remain.
