Normally we have in the local rag the headline about record ST sales for this time of the year ,does this missing headline mean they have slowed down on previous efforts GTFC?

Dunno why that should be the case. The launch and subsequent marketing campaign has been seamless.

I don’t think it makes particularly good press releasing a statement saying we’ve sold a couple of hundred season tickets. It usually just gets negative responses and comparisons with Lincoln.


"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!!!"

I fully intend renewing but won't be doing so until I see some positive activity from the club. The fact that they needed a pretty substantial shove from the fans groups regarding monthly payments shows a serious lack of competence.

Zebra Finance, the company that did this for virtually every football club, only announced that they wouldn't be able to do it at the very end of March. So it's taken about 6 weeks to put something else into place, it's not like it's taken an age to get this sorted, and I would expect other clubs have had the same problem. I doubt it was possible to arrange something in a matter of days just because fans kicked off about it, and I'm sure it was already underway. As usual, the communication wasn't great, but I don't understand why everything has to be viewed so cynically.

about 25 years of bitter experience of poor communications, lack of trust, dashed hopes, bitter disappointment, disillusionment and disengagement might start to explain the cynicism

I'll be renewing but have little incentive to do so until the deadline approaches.
