Quoted from immariner
Restricted view seats SHOULD be cheaper by a quid or two, it's as simple as that. It shouldn't be a case of 'well we told you they were restricted'


Restricted view seats should be more than a quid or two cheaper and other seats should be openly available before it gets down to that. Like DHM said, the restricted view seats should be forgotten about as far as selling seats is concerned.

The club should also make sure single seats aren't left for a period as it stops children going with their parents.

Also single seat buyers should not have the option of choosing the middle of a row of 3 or 4 empty seats when there is a busy game

Whilst it's frustrating, this is a great problem to have. Imagine thinking this was possible 18 months ago.

From the evidence we've seen so far I think it's fair to say we know the club will be working on improving all these things. They will take time though, it's been a crazy short turn around for the club this pre season.


All Town aren’t we

Quietly tucked away in this update on the OS is a reference to season tickets sales of over 5,700.

Perhaps they do t want to draw attention to the extra cash made?

Block A in the Osmond now open. Less than 200 left in the Main.


I found that strange too when me and my brother decided to watch a game from the Osmond last season for a change.

We could only pick a seat from block A and other blocks wouldn't be available until the previous block had sold out. Doesn't happen in other parts o the ground.

We bought seats in block A and sat somewhere else as did most people in there, which made it all a bit pointless.

At least the motives behind that don't centre around benign loan repayments and pensions these days. 2000 extra season ticket sales must equate to at least £300k after VAT and concessions which could add a "Grimsby Premium" to any player enquiries.

It's a sign of how good things are that we are sat here genuinely worried about how we are going to get tickets. With 5,700 season tickets sold, I think something needs to be done for exiles like you living miles away from BP. There should be a mechanism that grants people season ticket priority for away games within a certain radius of their address. You can never please everyone but a town fan living a stones throw from Sutton for example should have the opportunity to watch the game with their town supporting friends.

Back to my first sentence though, the fact we are discussing these things has to be taken as a positive.

I spoke with Cowley and a couple of coaches at Lincoln after that mad season they had, cowley had to tell the club to stop talking openly about how much they’d made because excrement players were wanting more cash because they knew Lincoln had it…

Well done to the club. I actually think they're being spot on with all of this. No point opening the Osmond too soon until seats are almost all gone elsewhere. 1 block at a time also makes sense to help he ease of segregation better.
UTM. Well done to all involved.
