Are the trains going to be dry ones on Saturday then or is it just Town fans being singled out again?

Dont think many will be travelling by train Les, ...we are at home    

Have Donny fans got our reputation? That is the key question on that one.  I think they will show up though given that we pretty much had the run of Doncaster when we played them so for them they might feel the need to save face.

I would like to think that the police will do the following though;

Dry trains in
Dry trains out
Coral any risk element they bring on the train and head them straight along the sea wall into the Osmond Stand.
Cleethorpes pubs doors shut til 1300....or at least door supervised.  
Hold them back after the game for 15 mins
March them down the sea wall back to the station after.

Luckily for them the tide is on the turn from 9:45 a.m so not much chance of getting a dunking

So basically we can expect.

Trains with a bargain booze kiosk onboard.
Wetherspoons happy hour 11 - 12
Town fans being arrested for leaving their house.
Donny fans given the freedom of the city.
Donny fans being let out 15 minutes early (like Mandfield) to get organised.
Town fans living in Cleethorpes having to go home via Louth, whilst the police look for the two hundred Donny fans that managed to give them the slip in the mile between BP and Cleethorpes station.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Pretty much spot on,it's like Groundhog Day in Cleethorpes with the keystone cops thrown in whenever  a decent following show up.

Just booked my ticket for Saturday. Have to leave home at 6.30am, because of the early kick.off. Still, I should be home by 9.00pm. Hope I don't jinx the result. Doncaster on paper should be too good for Town but they didn't seem that special when we played at Doncaster. Hopefully a good result, especially with Doncaster looking over their shoulders at Plymouth in pursuit of the Title.

I can only really recall trouble at home to Donny once years ago when we played them in the FA Cup and the warring factions kicked off outside what was the Vic and Dolphin when a coachload or two of their lot turned up.They were never renowned for travelling but they used to be a handful at home and clashed with travelling Town fans through the 80s early 90s when we were changing trains at Donny.I think if the jungle drums are correct and large numbers of ticketless Donny turn up in CLPS they may well get a nasty surprise from a much larger than usual turnout of home supporters.Still im sure supporters of both Clubs will feel perfectly safe in the knowledge Humberside OB have got things all under control

Forgive me my ignorance, but don't "supporters" support their team as opposed to dishing out nasty surprises willy nilly?



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.
