I suggest that the key to getting the children away from all the trappings of modern technology is the key to this being a success  . They need to fall in love with the club , passion for the club doesn't come from a free shirt . They need to come through the turnstiles and be engaged and entertained . I winning team is 95% of the battle here . The club already do good community work so really its down to the results . 15 years of decline is going to take some turning around . All just my opinion of course . I don't expect threats and other insults for having an opinion either

I can sort of understand it although I don't condone it seeing the kids round here (Cleethorpes) wearing the likes of Liverpool, Man Utd tops but Barcelona, yes Barcelona  FFS, what's the world coming to.


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

No one is threatening you for God’s sake.

So how are you:
(A) going to get children away from ‘all the trappings of modern technology ‘?;
(B) going to deliver a winning team?


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

The whole project was always going to be a slow build and whilst we’d have hoped for more at this stage, the upcoming activity will deliver this. Fleabags comments don’t really help though. How about actually trying to do something eh? It’s so easy to moan and say I told you so, get out there and do something.


Batch, Crombie, Moore K, Wiggington, Cumming, Waters, Bonnyman, Ford, Emson, Drinkell, Whymark. Love you all, You are the reason I'm on here. You've had help from Todd, Handyside, Futcher P, Groves, Mendonca, Macca etc etc etc. Up The Mariners!!!!!!!!!

Thought so. No answers.

I think it's great what the fans are volunteering to do. I've sent my opinion to the group, Trust and club.. The fans group replied positively and gave me the trusts email but ive heard nothing from the club, which I don't mind just thought I'd throw an idea out there.

I hope you achieve your goals and it helps more youngsters support their home town. Utm

I know this isn't exactly "Fans of the Future", but what about something like a GTFC community lottery, £50 to enter your house no \ postcode in a draw and the winning house no \ postcode all get free season tickets for whole family.

I suggested doing something positive was better than moaning about it.
