Is it possible to do a kick starter for this? Would be a first on there!

Quoted from headingly_mariner
I think you should put it in as benign loans, just in case the club makes any money and you can get it back. In all seriousness it's a top gesture!


After receiving advice from a couple of people, I'll look to put the cash in as a loan or as shares.

I would love the club to be back playing in the football league, if not for me but for my 15 year old son whom is an avid
Town fan, remarkable really as we live in Northamptonshire and he has never lived in Gy!
I would certainly be prepared to put into the clubs coffers as we cannot attend as many games as desired.
Respect to you Vicar!

Top respect to you Vicar.

If everyone was kicking in a few quid  ala our signing of Bonetti I would certainly contribute a little bit.  As an exile I tend to go to more away games than home so don't feel I contribute enough to our coffers at the minute.  

When players are saying they don't want to come to Town because of the location I want them to be aware of stuff like this.  Town fans so desperate for the club to have success they are willing to just donate their own money, the only recompense being seeing a successful team.  If that cannot motivate them to come and play their hearts out then I don't know what will.

You'd think being this far north and on a road to nowhere us fans actually have some money!!!

At the end of the day if a player doesn't want to come here then he's not a player for us!  Jf says money is not an issue.  Okay then John of course it's an issue ffs it it isn't why aren't we raiding Yorkshire clubs etc with money being the incentive??

Quoted from chaos33
Maybe I've spent too much time in truly beautiful parts of the country then. Mind you, I was in Malham, Hetton, Cracoe in the Yorkshire Dales today. I found Solihull to be unremarkable, and Grimsby, on the other hand,  is much 'nicer' than it is often declared.


Grimsby does have a bad name maybe its the constant GRIM IN GRIMSBY headlines,

There are some rough area's but most towns have them,

I live in a lovely part of Suffolk just outside of beautiful Bury St Edmunds and I would not like to live any where else,

BUT

There are some very nice parts of Grimsby/Cleethorpes as well as some lovely villages close by to live,

So for a player to say the location is the reason they do not want to play for us,

Tells me they are lacking in something, they do not have to spend the rest of their lives in the area,

Just a few years to the advancement of their career .

Thats a question for the players that dont want to uproot or travel surely.  There is only so much GTFC can do.

That is true mez and I have no doubt the club is being sold correctly to players.

I just can't understand "money is no issue"  quote  when we lose x amount every year

I can't speak for the rest on here but if I was a footballer at this level and had the choice of living in a 4 bed luxury house around the Grimsby area or in a two up two down in some back street in the suburbs of say Manchester, Birmingham or London, I know which I would choose. I would imagine either a mortgage or rent would be about the same in comparison and the cost of living is far lower in this area. If they didn't particularly like this area of beautiful Lincolnshire(in my eyes) they could move back to the bright city lights when they have completed their contracts, no big deal.
