I dislike the promotion of multiculturalism and diversity, they are by definition socially and culturally divisive. The more we see diversity promoted the more divided we become. A mural dedicated to GTFC showing the integration of important people connected with the club past and present, regardless of age, race, creed etc. is a good thing. A mural deliberately designed to show diversity, i.e. celebrating racial differences, is a political statement the club should have no part in.

Just to clarify you're saying if we didn't celebrate diversity and ignored social issues then everyone would get on better? If you want a mural showing the people you think are important to the club... make one! Sorry if others taking their time to turn a horrible grey wall into a beautiful mural annoys you so much because it has a message you don't like. I hope everyone waiting for a urine at the bottom of the Pontoon don't see it and immediately become more divided. 'I thought we were all Grimsby fans but this mural promoting unity has made me more suspicious of you because you're not the same colour as me!'

What a load of excrement why are we so obsessed with equality and diversity FFS and what a joke they have had to go back to the past nearly 20 years just to get a token Asian, I'm sick of having this excrement rammed down our throughts I'm just surprised there is no female on there surely lisa from the ticket office has earned her place😕
You obviously have a chip on your shoulder about something. How anyone can get upset and pick fault with a mural celebrating equality and diversity is absolutely beyond me. Jesus Christ, if those concepts offend you that much, then just don't look at it? Or maybe go and get commissioned to paint your own mural.

No, that is a travesty of my point and you know it.

Equality and diversity and all that is fair enough, but there's no excuse for putting that awful Jarvis kit in there

People in North Korea are very happy, they are always smiling and clapping
I don't think it really counts when you get put in a labour camp until death if you stop doing these things.
