Bought my tickets via the GTFC website on Friday lunchtime, landed on my doormat 150 miles away at 11.30 this morning. Straightforward and problem free as far as I can see.
You would say that. You love archaic things.

Bought mine along with yesterdays ticket. Good service as usual.
Just booked a room at the quiet end of the prom for Friday. £30 inc breakfast/ free parking. Fancy testing the knees on a Lakeland Fell before our first victory. Local stroll Sat. a.m.
What could go wrong?

So the conclusion is.....
You can not fault the service you get from the ticket office either on the phone or in person. They have been known to go the extra mile to accommodate requests. 10 out of 10 we could not have better.
BUT.......
The systems they are asked to use are so outdated and time consuming it can not be easy to work with them.
So please do not shoot the messenger if you do not like the message, our ticket office staff do a remarkable job and we should appreciate them for all they do for us.
So please can we have a nice new ticketing system for next season please Mr JF (or whoever if the takeover happens)
Yous sincerly,
The Loyal Fans of Grimsby Town F.C.

Now come on be fair when Mr Fenty made his money with fish it was a time of the Simplex D accounts book a time of ledgers being done in pencil and an old guy hunched over a desk collating orders and dispatches.
Since the modern times of the micro chip (oddly a chip that wont go with his fish) he has seen his fortune dwindle and suffered torrents of abuse on some new fangled thing call a web site which he went on cos he thought it was about fish, he has since been informed these web sites things are on something called the internet and after going to the library and reading some books he found out the internet thing lives in some strange devices called computers /laptops/ smart phones
So why on earth would he invite this bully the internet thing into his office to provide a modern ticketing system to benefit the Trojan horse that has dwindled his pocket money or to please/ assist those angler type people on that there fishing type website that call him names .....no thank you I got big with note pads and pencils so this club will get big with note pads pencils and if something goes wrong we can just erase it and start again

Jen’s audience reminds me of the Fenty fanboys.

Why am I not surprised that a thread about tickets for the Morecambe match turns into an anti JF rant. Why can't some people give it a rest - it's counter productive, boring and makes the posters appear to be bitter, vindictive articles.

Because ticketing is just another example of the incompetent way the club is run. If you can’t join the dots, then you will struggle to understand.

I can join the dots and I do understand but why can't we give it a rest. As a point of interest wouldn't it be Fleming who was responsible for these administration matters?

Anyone else going by train?
Grantham to Leeds then the 1018 direct to Morcambe (The scenic route not the fastest) arriving at 12.24.
Over 2 hours on a train with no buffet (or WiFi) ! Still it will be cheaper to take our own drinks. Don't let us down 'Northern'.

I’m taking my 4 year old daughter for her first away game and then staying overnight in Bay Horse before a day at Blackpool zoo, hopefully it’ll be a good weekend all round and one to remember for her first away trip
