I get the sentiment but in truth, how many would go given plenty of places locally are showing it?

Agree but, all those will surely be pubs etc. what about families wanting to go ? This is pretty poor from the council IF they have scuppered this (though being an ex publican can see both sides to it)

Is there a pub in meggies/gy that has the facilities to show it in a beer garden?

I'm sure there is a bar on Cleethorpes High street that has a large, outdoor screen through the back of the bar with a raised seating area too.

Well just back from playing golf and was planning to watch the match at BP on Saturday as we did the County game. So 2 Adults and 2 15 year olds would appreciate any recommendations for places to watch this over in Grimsby/Cleethorpes.

Ideally somewhere that we can get a seat is preferred but accept that might be an optimistic objective .

Think this is a bit of a shame really given the vast majority of fans won't be at the game... a mini match atmosphere sounded ace and would of been a good bet for families and avoid the gamble of pub space etc.

Nevermind! Also up for recommends of pubs in Meggies/GY, preferably with a real ale or two on tap...

That statement reads like "we wanted to do it, but we can't and it's not our fault. Someone else is to blame."

Another example of the values the new owners talk about not being lived up to.

The club has messed up. Firstly by taking a McMenemy's booking on a date that was listed as a Play-off Semi-Final date since last July. And secondly by not having anything organised in advance. But apparently it's the fault of somebody else (probably BT Sport).

I'm sure the booking was probably made prior to our relegation.

You don't know how far in advance the booking was taken, as for organising in advance you can't predict demand or lack of tickets to a game because they had no idea who we'd be facing in a semi-final last July. As far as I read the main issues were because of renovations going on to the ground, I get some people are disappointed that they can't get together with their mates and have it feel like a matchday but their values in wanting to improve the ground and matchday experience are clear in that work on the ground has stopped this happening.
