13 August 2009

Rather than wait until they have one foot in the division below before offering cheap match tickets as part of a big Keep Back Our Mariner Buoys Up Afloat campaign, the new proactive era at Town's marketing department means supporters can see the first home game of the new season for just ten quid (or a fiver for concessions). There are coupons in the Grimsby Telegraph like usual, but it's still August and Newell's new boys are only three points off the top of their league table! On the other hand, of course, the Mariners have lost every single game they've played all season, and are only out of the relegation zone on goal difference, having conceded six goals for every one they've scored, so maybe the Keep Back Our Mariner Buoys Up Afloat campaign is already in full swing.
