Great idea Rich. We shouldn't just roll over even tough this decision is a fait accompli. There'll always be another one.

If the boycott is total are the Prem throwing enough crumbs from the table to outweigh the loss of match receipts?

Time to kill this idea. I don't generally attend FL Trophy games as they're usually northern games so me boycotting won't make a difference. However, I will travel to attend a fans' game. I'd happily make the 400 mile round trip. I'd happily contribute to any fighting fund or pitch hire.

We've shown before what Grimsby fans can do. Let's do it again. Let's be the inspiration for other clubs' fans.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Just to confirm guys, I'm the manager of the Internet Mariners team and we would be more than happy to set something up.

This would obviously depend on who our opponents were and whether they could make it over. May need a little bit of support in terms of venues, as clearly we would need a floodlit facility.

But it would be a great chance to show what fans can do as well as raise some money for charity.

Building on this great idea. If an entrance fee was charged and sponsorship received to cover costs and the whole event became really successful and resulted in a cash surplus, a much needed donation could be made to the Disabled Supporters Club..

Point made. Worthy cause benefits.

As well as a benefit to a good cause (Disabled Supporters Club), if this really took off then the media may take an interest. Another good idea in the making.

How about if the opponents were the fans of the team we were playing.

That would be awesome.  Two clubs joined together against Harvey and Co.  

In terms of floodlight facility. I know it's getting boring, but I do believe Town fans would raise the money to sort one out.


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'
