They had to put a boom in afterwards to accommodate the clubs at 25 metre, my one claim to fame ( sad ) is that I could swim that 37 metre underwater without coming up for air and I reckon I could still do it now at 56, although I am not as streamline as I used to be ( belly ).



I'm pretty sure my old man could do the whole length underwater.  I used to dread having to do just 10m underwater on my Friday afternoon lessons there!

Quoted from HackneyHaddock
From the council who gave us the 37m swimming pool, the not-a-Theatre-not-a-SportsHall Cultural Centre in the middle of a council estate, the bulldozing of the town's finest 19th century architecture, the £6m grey seizure-inducing paving slabs, the £7m Icelandic Bank Deposit, the slow-motion rotting of the FishDocks and with it any last vestige of the town's industrial heritage.  Why should we be surprised?

Quoted from rancido



It has been reported that an as yet unknown investor is prepared to be involved in funding a new stadium with JF on the board so that throws your comment out the window !


I meant direct investment into the football club that would obviate the need for council help to fund it. It is difficult enough dealing with the council for planning and all the associated issues, but it is a hundred times more difficult when asking the council for money to fund it.

The unknown investor is there to make a shed load of money on building on the land, which is fair enough, but a club of our size ( as compared to say Scunthorpe) could/should have more investment.

I think it means the centre of Grimsby as it used to be - the Bull Ring area with its beautiful half timbered buildings which would have been a fantastic backdrop to a Town centre today.

I think we got St.james hotel and Prestos (now Wilkinsons) as a replacement for buildings that had stood a lifetime and with a bit of careful planning could have given us one of the lovliest town centres in the country.
