I'll admit to this now ....my lad(massive GTFC fan) is bringing his best mate with him Saturday, he happens to be a Dull City pass holder but to quote "wants to come see what proper, winning football looks like"!!..

This is remarkable it really is, what a turnaround in such a shirt time. Surely we are into the realms of doubling our home attendances under our previous " Custodian " 🤬. Massive well done to all concerned UTM ⚫⚪⚫⚪

Quoted from RonMariner


I don't think we should pay him off any sooner than we have to.  He agreed a three year repayment schedule (accelerated by any incoming transfer fees) so let's stick with that.  

I assume that he transfer fee clause only related to payers at the club when he left? Anyone know?


I agree with Ron here.
Presumably we have already accelerated the repayment by circa 500k.
(Pollock 250k, Dembele 100k, & Grist anything rumoured from 71.5k - 200k).
Any extra revenue should be retained for improvements on or off the pitch.

I hope the lads are backed vocally. So far this season the fans have been really good and the positive atmosphere in the stands is so different after the simmering resentment that was only ever just under the surface under the long, dark Fenty years.

But this squad is class and they deserve our backing. No passenger, no hiders and everyone puts in the maximum. They fully deserve a loud and positive backing from the first whistle till the last and they usually respond too! UTM!

I understand it is a valid point. Of course we don't know what Hurst has lined up, player wise or if JS and AP see it that way. We also have the scenario that if we get promoted this season then there will  have to be a large influx of better players to combat a consolidating season in League 2. Maybe the extra income would be better used for that. There will be extra income from the FA for being in the league but surely it is better to keep funds in reserve for any other expenditure?

At this moment in time we still haven’t sold out our tickets in the osmond and main stand though. I know when we have a big away following we won’t get the osmond but there’s only going to be 3 occasions (Stockport, Notts County and Chesterfield) in which we won’t get the entire Osmond. And by the time you get the temporary seating installed we’ll only have Stockport who will need more than just the corner.


  easy, just give them the bare minimum. About time we loaded games in our favour.

Instead of temp seats i would rather the club spent money on segregating a small section of the main stand for when we have away supporters that total less than 100.  Then sell the whole osmond to town fans.

Games against the tinpots aren't the problem at the moment (though they may be if the current growth trend continues) - we can probably accommodate another 500 home fans in the Osmond and still segregate from the sub 200 away followings. It's the games against teams that will bring a few hundred - too many under current police policy (or is it GTFC?) to allow homes fans in the Osmond. This means there are empty seats in the Osmond but home fans are being turned away - I expect this will be the case v Notts.

We have split the Osmond before with full sell-out crowds - definitely Fulham in the play off semi, also Tottenham and West Ham? Also Oldham the last game before the Fulham semi was an 8k+ crowd and Oldham won't have brought more than 500.
