It's something new to try and feedback always welcome.

With regards to the Saturday rather than the Friday - we have to be mindful of the gaffers other arrangements.

On the cost - the decision was made to charge, with pretty much no profit, as the concern was that some would just bag a ticket and if things couldn't be arranged transport/accommodation wise just not use it.

Is that the right or wrong decision?  We'll only know in hindsight but as I say its something new that can be tweaked for future events.

just got this from Dave Roberts

Good Afternoon - With the evening with Ollie just a couple of days away I wanted to just let you know the arrangements for the night.

  The night will be very informal  with Ollie spending  time chatting with everyone individually or in small groups. He will then say a few words, well probably a lot, and then we will have a Q & A.

Doors open at 7pm with Ollie arriving around 7.30pm. We would expect the evening to finish around 10pm, plenty of time for a night out in Cleethorpes!

There will be someone at the door to greet you and check your name (s) on the list. He will then issue you with your drinks voucher.

If you have any local family and friends that you would like to bring along that is fine, they can pay on the door.

For anyone who doesn't know where the Trust bar is, the entrance is on the main car park at the Constitutional Ave end.

One final thing you should be aware of is we have had confirmation that Sky TV will be there filming. They are following Ollie on Thursday and Friday to put together a feature on him and so him interacting with supporters will be ideal for them. Should be fun!

Look forward to seeing your there.

For the greater good I will stay away from this event seeing as a lady in the village has the coronavirus  and has been in the local shop that I have been in,

Wow that’s a good discount on the match day ticket. Shame I can’t make it as I’ve just had a week off sick.


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.

Sounds brilliant and as an exile season ticket holder I’m  soooo disappointed as I’ll miss it! I’ve to escort my son on his rugby tour so can’t make it. I’ll certainly look forward to the next one and Kristine I think it’s perfectly acceptable to charge for a ticket. Onwards and upwards to the Mariners!!!

There could be a solution !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
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'
