Good to see a few haven fans making the trip down from cumbria, got to be a good 6 hours each way in that coach. Pretty vocal as well.
Well done for making the effort marra.

Easy, lobbing free tickets around without a fan retention strategy is very likely to end up as a near 100% failure in the long run. Doing targeted approaches, sorting out your match day offering and deploying a fan retention strategy has a real - though not 100% guarantee - of long run success

There are numerous examples of clubs in varying sports who have revitalised using that strategy. The strategy is sound, the execution wasn't.

I understand that they came down for the weekend. Arranged through their club.

It certainly is a long trip, 800 mile round trip for us. I remember in 2016 getting to Whitehaven, to find the game was postponed due to a waterlogged pitch.
We spent quite a bit of time with the team in the bar as the coach driver needed his rest period. We got the players food after they had left.
The game was replayed was a couple of weeks later. It snowed on the way up but we got our game.

Yet to see any merchandise at any game this season.

The only shirts were the ones given to season ticket holders. ( Not a good idea in my opinion )

Quite a few small sports clubs are scrapping merchandising in the ground and using print on demand. The traditional method requires a potentially large outlay, which you hope to get back.

With the ever present risk of Covid restrictions on gates etc I can understand why the club may have chosen not to take the risk of buying in stock this year to be fair.

Then surely Halfdan they should have said as much. Oh silly me, that requires communication which is alien to the club.

Im hearing even the drunk announcers mic was only 'half' working! Does it get any worse

What a shambles

He dropped the mic on the floor before the game.

Poor old ron...he does try

It was said 80 of them travelled, did not seem so many? It is quite a journey, made it many many times and bad enough from the North West, especially in winter.

You need to be carefull making comments like that WQ

The coach was not a 56 seater,
