Win or lose, Grimsby are my Club and with fifteen minutes left I was disappointed to see the mass exodus. So we had a bad day, gave to much respect to Exeter with our defensive formation, excuses etc.

Margins are fine, today we didn't have much luck and at times the referee favoured Exeter. Last week I went to Hartlepool and was proud to be part of the Club. It's been nearly a month since we lost but why can't you back the players when things don't go to plan?

We move on together, to the next games, Notts County then Stevenage - I'll be there, win or lose. UTM

Like many others I left with 10 minutes to go and the game was clearly lost which I am perfectly entitled to do as a season ticket holder.
I will still be 100% behind Town every time I attend games.

As you rightly say - I'll be there, win or lose. UTM

One of our group left because he has a debilitating illness and was freezing to the point he was dithering. Is that alright with you? I hate all this pointing the finger at the fans, as though it makes a difference whether they decide to leave early or not. The game was gone and nothing was happening. Even if everyone had started to sing at the tops of their voices, there was no coming back. Three of our group remained and clapped off the teams, especially Exeter but it doesn't make us better fans than the one of us who left, or anyone else for that matter.

Well done. As a paying STH, Grimsby Town fan of 48 years, I, along with others, reserve the right to leave if I want. Today, particularly after half-time was a shambles, including not mentioning Graham Taylor's playing career in the tribute, culminating in a disrespectful interview with the manager who got it wrong today.

Bad day at the office - maybe - but our home form is not getting any better and today reminded me of the dark days of non-league, so I left (and it was cold!)

I never leave early just in case I miss a wonder goal or the world's must unlikely comeback. I don't blame anyone else for leaving though, that was shite.

Same. Only a few weeks ago AFC Wimbledon did a remarkable comeback to win 4-3 from 3-0 down with 10 minutes to go.

Once in a lifetime stuff, I know, but while there are minutes on the clock you never know!

If anything freaky happens, I'll know for sure that I'll see it

Fuk it I left with 10 to go.
That may be bad but not as bad as the Manager and the team leaving after 45 minutes
😛


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.

A lot of us will be but what is your point? Do we have to stay for every single second of every single game when we are 3-0 down at home?

Why bother to go after the final whistle - lets wait till the players have warmed down (or warmed up in some cases) had a bath, got on the team bus and ordered a takeaway.
