Just received mine in the post. A few notable elements:
- Between 1,800 and 2,200 tickets available
- Up to six people from two households able to sit together
- Only one league game expected to be played behind closed doors, with the first game open to attend being 3rd October
- No refunds available in the event that games have to revert to behind closed doors
That last one may put a few off, but it’s completely understandable from the club’s point of view - they need guaranteed income. Personally, it’s a financial risk I’m prepared to make though I respect anyone who doesn’t want to / isn’t able to.

Never been a gambler but I'll take this one. Cleethorpes still has the lowest infection rate in England. One assumes that EFL/SKY/IFollow deal would kick back in if local lockdowns prevent access for spectators later in the season?

Home matches are free to stream for season ticket holders until capacity exceeds 50%.

Just arrived! Lots to digest so best read it all first. Hopefully club will publish the FAQ'S pages later as so much is different. No Trust discount is one example of change to affordability. OS has this long version of t's and C's. https://www.grimsby-townfc.co......s-and-conditions.pdf

I can’t figure out if it’s detailed or just extremely long winded?
I suspect the short notice of the purchase period is more likely to put people off than the actual virus and the like...

I would think not having your seat of choice would be a major factor for some, you may not even get the stand you want depending upon demand.
Staggered arrival times
Bars and refreshments not necessarily open
No end aisle seats to be used
Club are doing their best given the circumstances but just so many unknowns.

Staggered entry times will be bizarre and I’m not entirely sure they serve a purpose.
Providing people just queue similar to shops then it seems unnecessary.
I agree about the seat thing, especially if you’re used to sitting in say the lower findus and you get the main stand. I think the bigger issue is the club are gonna be having to get the abacus our to figure out alleged social bubbles and the like...which let’s face it, aren’t really happening anywhere else...
Also, thinking about it, some poor girl private will be sat back corner of the osmond paying the same price as some bloke sat on the half way line in the lower...

I do wonder if the club will be diligent enough to vet "bubbles" to ensure there are only two addresses/household involved? Seat wise, I have mates who are very attached to their particular upper findus seats which they consider the best view in the ground....moving just a few seats either way may prove too much for them never mind rows or stands.
