I understand life as a Town fan is very frustrating at the moment and as been for the last 10 years. And I agree with some of the moaners on here about certain issues with the club(But keep it on here). I have been supporting Town for 26 years and I have seen some shambolic games in my time and I have gone home so so angry. But not once have I Booed my team. I choose not to boo because I want my team to do well and win and achieve something. If I was trying to get on with my job at work and the customers were booing me im sure it would affect my performance at doing my job. I also dont understand how slating individual players helps there confidence at all. I dont get it at all. Can somebody explain to me how booing and slating players helps the team? Surely the best way to get the best out of the players and be the 12th man is to get behind the team and spur them on not abuse them. If your a true fan and you want grimsby to succeed why boo?. Rant Over. UTM

Finally someone with some common sense! Well Said!

I have to constantly listen to idiots, yes pure idiots, sat around me in my season ticket seat which ive had for 5 years now, there are so many misinformed opinions from people that just personify the word moron. It's very frustrating. Peter Bore used to get a hammering from the Lower Smiths, maybe it was them that knocked his confidence. I'm taking ear plugs from now on!


Colour my life with the chaos of trouble.

Maybe it does happen at other clubs,I still dont get how it helps the team. Or any team for there own fans to boo and slate players. Maybe its just me but I like to get behind my team even when things arent going so well.

I must admit I lost it for a few seconds yesterday when Kempson put the ball in the stand for the upteenth time and I did shout about the pitch being 100 yards wide. Kempson heard me and reacted and I regretted it. Football is a passionate game, I do support the team but I can understand some people getting drunk off.

Aye, that's me! I'd had enough!

Felt bad afterwards though but I don't see why he keeps hammering the ball out of play when he's got 100 yards of space to hit!
