Quoted from Posh Harry
GTFC Twitter account saying they are going to sell out their 1900 allocation.  Have to say that is amazing for a pre season friendly even if half of them are combining it with their annual holiday in clee.

When was the last time we had that many away fans? Don't think either sunny or Huddersfield bought that many in the fa cup?maybe Spurs or newcastle?


So they should have a good following they are all here on their holiday making the town look untidy it's like a sports direct fashion show, even the Gypsies intercourse off during the school holidays knowing that rabble are wobbling about stinking of chip fat.

Donny in the JPT the season we lost to The illegitimate Franchise Scum brought about 2500. They had more fans there on the night than we did. They were the holders at the time but it was still an amazing following. The had all The Osmond, the corner and part of The Main Stand.

Yeah, it was a bit windy that night IIRC.  

I think that was also the game when Paul Bolland missed in the penalty shoot-out but the ref ordered a retake which he scored. Very rare you see a retake in a penalty shootout.

GRIMSBY Town could unveil a new signing today – just in time to make his debut in tomorrow's friendly with Sheffield United (3pm).

Should give a little boost to the home gate if it happens.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

If you want pleasant I suggest you keep away from Cleethorpes centre on Saturday especially if you have kids, it's safe to say there will be plenty of United down for more than just a footy game.

I doubt with this only being a friendly it will live up to anything like previous encounters of which there have been some classics.
The best I remember was the end of season game in 1980 when we beat them 4-0 and won promotion from the third to the second division. Over 19,000 at BP with Joe Waters scoring and Drinkell getting a hat trick.
Their side had the magical & legendary Alex Sabella who went on to play for Leeds and managed Argentina till 2014, but he was kept totally out of the game that day by our own legend Kevin Moore.
Great Days.
