I'd also like to echo those sentiments and would also like to add my condolences for your own loss too

I don't mean to sound condescending or patronising (probably do though so sorry!) but losing your father as you've just done too can be really hard to bear....

My own dad passed on many years ago now but it was through him (and his dad too, my grandad) that I got in to watching Town and I still find things inextricably linked - though we can't talk about games and players like we did, in some ways just supporting the club keeps things alive so I'm grateful for that as it brings back some good memories (many of which are brought back by posts on here!)

From the day I was born when we beat Fulham till the day he died and we drew against Northampton....good times and as they say, time can be a great healer and as the old song also goes "You'll never walk alone" as long as you keep those memories close

Anyway what I'm trying to say (although probably falling flat on my face) is that everyone on here continues to be absolutely first class.....we're great supporters of our great club but more than that, we can be great supporters of each other too

I did not know you had a loss recently and sympathise with you and can relate to what you are going through with this and the icey sudden loss..

i lost my sister just before christmas suddenly and she was only 19 so totally understand..

the fishy is such a great website and this shows the mariners are a loyal group and i will say the best fans in the world..

well done to the fishy and grimsby fans..

i also nominate the icey thread.

The Icenian" thread itself


I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas

The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara

I think maybe as a sign of respect and in honour of, Theicenian thread and every post upon it should win the first one, then from next week and onwards it can focus on the one most voted post as winner. Just a thought.


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!

Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.
