My plan for 2020

Ownership

1) Take out adverts in the national newspapers and get it all across the media that the club is for sale and investment is welcome. Give out as much information as possible. There are people out there who will want to invest but they need to know as most won't read the telegraph or the fishy.

2) Employ a CEO in the interim. Might be £80k plus per annum but the right person would make this a sound investment.

3) Employ someone or an agency to market the club to buyers or investors. Again will cost money but if they are any good it's a sound investment.

Manager

1) Immediately hire an experienced league manager with a modicum of success on their CV. Personally I would go after Tisdale. Sell the fact we are a similar project to Exeter. Small club in the bottom end of nowhere with loyal fans and a good crop of youth team players.

2) Allow the new manager to bring in their own coaching team.

Fan Engagement

1) Make the Exeter home game in January a thank you to the fans day. Reduced admission, free programme, free pint, free pie something like that. Ensure for at least this game the ground is full and rocking to show people that it can actually be fun and atmospheric.

2) Make the Mansfield game a thank you to those who travel away. Free coaches, free pint or something.

Both of these cost money but something has to be done to entice people back as we are losing fans at an alarming rate.

[b]Match Day Experience and Fan Engagement/b]

1) Introduce print your own tickets at home.

2) Look at dynamic pricing models (i.e. price goes up and down depending on demand and time of booking).

3) Get fans more involved in the day. Tiny things like online votes for the pre match music, penalty shoot outs with opposing fans.

4) Introduce pop up food vendors and pop up bars on match days.

5) Sell fish and chips.

6) Topless barmaids


It's all good stuff PSG but the chance of any of this being implemented are minimal.

The problem with most of those ideas is they all require additional outlay.

I don't know, maybe 250k would do it.

But somebody only looking to recoup not speculate.

What about offering red Ferraris to new signings so we can get the best players?

I think you could be on to a winner with that suggestion.... we'll have the pick of the bunch come the January transfer window with these incentives

All far too sensible suggestions. Take your thoughtful and considered ideas elsewhere........shouts of 4  4  2         4  4  2           4  4  2     are what is needed!!!!!!

I'd add to that with some "change it woodsy"



I was there, the day Bradley Wood scored a 35 yarder!

From the black and white striped shirts
To the fish in the sea
You'll hear us singing
Coz we are Grimsby.

You won't hear us crying
But you'll hear us shout
Coz we are the Grimsby
And this is our chant.......... Grimsby! Grimsby! Grimsby!
