If anyone does go they're either not a fan or don't understand.

Not the first time the owners of GTFC have misjudged the strength of feeling. Guess Mr Harvey and his pals put on a slap-up gala dinner in Portugal to sell this to the massed ranks of club owners on a freebie.

Quoted from sonik
These cup competitions have generated the clubs income around 6 to 8 hundred thousand pounds in the last 6 seasons. It is also a one year trial that maybe scraped if the vote goes the other way. Only two teams voted against the  proposal I believe out of 72. UTM


So intercourse what the fans want then!!!  without fans Sonic there is no club.

Will you be happy for our club to play in a league made of of premiership B teams? Oh the joy of visiting Hull city training complex! because that's where all this is heading but then you probably know that. To rip apart our football heritage in order to make a few quid is alright with you then as you clearly know the price of everything and the value of nothing.

I see there is £10,000 on offer for each group stage victory.


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

Going with my mate but only because we're not local Grimsby fans, and live in the West Midlands.. we take any of these 'on our doorstep' games whenever we can!

Please don't go. You will do the club more good in the long run by staying away.

In another 6 seasons that money could be useless when we lose our place in the league to Celtic, Rangers or Stoke Reserves. Allowing premier league B teams to enter proper competition is the start of a series of events that threatens the existence of unfashionable clubs like Grimsby Town.

It will be interesting to see how many go to Walsall. The Fishy readership seem dead against it, it will be an interesting test of how representative the regular contributors are. How many of the Great Unwashed go, some of whom never even cast an eye on fans sites like the Fishy, remain to be seen.

To be a relation of the maker of this truly unpopular decision and quite frankly come on the team's unofficial forum to basically goad the fans that are its lifeblood and provide the majority of the club's income for your brother to spend on our behalf, I find it really distasteful at best and is another example of the disdain that your group show to one of the most loyal and patient fanbases in the country.

You're not surprised though, surely? For all John's efforts, this attempt at taking the moral high ground is a bit of a pisstake
