Thanks for the welcome back to the league you yorkie tramps  


In case you hadn't noticed, it normally takes two to fight. If everyone had the same attitude "you yorkie tramps" it was, sadly, inevitable.



No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Tell me again why were we so desperate to get back into the Football League ? (Div 4)

The National League which lets face it was Div 5 anyway was much more enjoyable (give me a 'pub team in Essex' anytime) and we won a lot more than we are likely to do this season

Just looked at telewag thread, police in pitched battles with sheff u fans, bottles and glasses being thrown etc. then police statement at about 3.30 says

A Humberside Police spokesman said: "We are aware and are positively dealing with the large amount of football fans who arrived early in Cleethorpes, before the Grimsby and Sheffield match began at 3pm.

"It is estimated about 2000 Sheffield fans came early to the seaside town. No offences have been reported and no-one has been arrested.

"We are in the town in large numbers for reassurance purposes and have many years worth of match management to ensure a peaceful game is had."

Apart from your criticism you didn't answer the question - what is so fu(king special and magical about the 'Football League'?

Other than Portsmouth most of the teams in Div 2 (4) are not that much more attractive or 'big time' than those ex League clubs in the National League

Its purely a 'League' as opposed to 'non-league' thing I suspect but apart from the embarrassment of relegation from 'the league' and the misconception that GTFC are just too big and famous to drop down,

Div 5 is basically no different to Div 4(2) and, unless we struggle through to Round 3 of the FA Cup and draw a really big club, has little more than a trip to Pompey to recommend it and the potential arrival of idiot away fans certainly negates that.

Very embarrassing, I'm all for being passionate showing you love your club but it's grown men going to towns smashing up local businesses and pubs for what? A little kick in a pre-season friendly. 6 months later they will be drinking beer with you watching England, I just don't understand it.

Well done the divs from Town btw. I know it's a small minority but you've just given Dodsey ammunition now especially this season to get large police followings at away games.


So you were there and see everything that went on then??????


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
