He mentions how far behind Town are as a league club but fails to mention we were newly promoted from non league. http://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.....-league-clubs-476938 I know we are trying to catch up but it takes time to get everything in place.

You could also argue the other way the reason it took us so long to get out of the league was because we didn't invest in the sports science. I don't mind Roy Keane making £60,000 a week. I was making the same when I was playing. The only difference was I was printing my own - Mickey Thomas The area you are trying to protect at corners is the goal - Chris Kamara I once said Gazza's IQ was less than his shirt number and he asked me: What's an IQ? - George Best

I would have thought that avoiding relegation was no.1 priortry  playoffs no.2 priortry. Doesn't make sense not to want to go up.

Bignot is an idiot and the womens game (funded by multi million pound premier league clubs) are welcome to him. No longer Sick of the BlueSquare

Problem arises when you haven't got the cash to catch-up.

Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Promise a man someone else's fish and he votes Labour.
