I dont support the wrong team all i am saying is that them special days when you win at wembley are the ones which are remembered most fondly in your memory, and whoever you are there would be some regret at not being at it, over trying to boycott the competition.


I have only ever missed one Wembley appearance of Towns.  That was the first one. Absolutely impossible for me to get there.  I have also been fortunate to be stood with my son when we beat FGR and got back in the league.  All memorable occasions.  However, I can assure you 100% that if we do go on to win this despicable competition, I will not have spent one penny on it, or one second either watching it or listening to it on the radio.  I will have absolutely NO regrets about missing Wembley, Man U away or whatever other games we may play in it. For me, in it's current format this competition does not exist

I do believe you are after bites, so congratulations on that one.

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'

Just received some information that we ought to accept at face value that Mr Fenty was not involved in the ticket stub decision. Personally I apologise for jumping to conclusions but have to caveat that with the comment that someone in power did and that makes me shudder.

Having purchased my season tickets, boycotting a home league game or two wouldnt hit the club at all financially. I dont buy programmes, food etc in the ground anyway


Ah I see, you are not principled enough to miss a game that you have already paid for.

Anyway I wasn't suggesting just you, why not advocate it for all fans as the boycott of the Donny game wont hit the club that much as there wouldn't have been much of a crowd anyway.

Going round in circles. I dont have a problem with the league so dont see the point of boycotting league games. I miss a few each season out of choice/other commitments.

I dont think this is about 'hitting the club' ( not for me at least) more about the stand against what I consider a ridiculous competition.

B teams threaten the very existence of clubs like Grimsby Town and their future in the football league.
It's short sighted for Grimsby Town fans to attend these games. I wouldn't attend in this competition even if we got to Wembley. I always went to trophy games before B teams.
As a season ticket holder and someone who goes away regularly I want to see us play against professional first teams.

If anyone is able to help me out with either 2 or 3 tickets then please PM me.

Not a ST holder due to work and off to the boycott game. I want to go to Mansfield but I'd rather miss out than sell my soul and go to the Donny game.

My view on the whole Chekatrade bit? "freedom of choice" if people want to go to the games in this competition because they want to see GTFC play and don't give a sh1t about politics then I reckon we should respect it. We are not playing well at the moment so doubt we'll progress anyway.

The stub for the Mansfield game? I'm amazed to be honest as I did not think that GTFC had the imagination.

This would not happen if our youngsters at the highest level where not getting pushed out by average imports on big salaries
