I have found a recently added clip of the Mariners training at Hereford School on the ITN source site.The  sight of our club's players arriving in the back of a van on benches is staggering to say the leas tbut worth seeing Drinkell,Whymark and Ford again.http://www.itnsource.com/shotlist//ITN/1981/04/09/FS090481008/?s=grimsby&st=0&pn=1

Look for the view of the old Barrett Stand at the end of the clip.

Come on Barra, he was merely asking Drinks to bag him a couple of goals in the next game

Bloody hell!! That's a really good good find!! That's the first time I've ever seen inside the Barrett Stand. Bit of a sad question maybe but does anyone know if the wooden fence that ran along the touchline was kept in tact when the Findus was built after the Barrett Stand was pulled down? I ask because I spent many a game sat on the crush barrier in the Lower Findus as a kid trying to find a wide enough gap in the fence to put my feet through. It looks exactly the same on this video as how I remember it.


You fill up my senses,
Like a barrel of Tetley's,
Like a packet of Woodbine,
Like a good pinch of snuff,
Like a night out in Cleethorpes,
Like a greasy chip butty,
O, Super Black and Whites,
Come fill me again
Na na naa naa naa naaaa TOWN!!
Na na naa naa na na naaaa
Na na naa naa na naaa naaa
Na na naa naa naa naaaaaaa!!!!!

I don't remember the Barraett Stand looking that small from behind. Oh to be young again. Great memories!

Brilliant. The Barratt was so atmospheric. I appreciate the need for the Findus, but a part of the ground died for me when they pulled it down. Remember walking around the pitch the day after the demolition had finished, with wood everywhere. Never thought to pick up a small piece for a keepsake.
