A few empty seats in the main stand from where I was sat.

how many from Lincoln?


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

There was going to be 1880 but in a another case of Grimsbyitis 2 dropped out to honour our year of foundation.

Really though, a local derby like this should easily be a 12,000 game.  Lincoln were getting 10,000 for their cup games and we'd be able to sell 10,000 home tickets in a decent ground.  The danger is that when your maximum home sell-out caps out at around 5,800, you don't really have much scope to expand the fan base or make a push for a bumper gate on the big days: Opening Day, Christmas and Easter, Derbies, Big club visits, Cup Games.

I agree that 14/15,000 would be a bit big for us at first in a new ground, but I do think it should be a mark of pride for a decent, well supported, traditional league club to be able to accommodate a five-figure crowd, which we could certainly do. 11-12,000 Capacity would be about right.

I'll have to set off for the  loos in the Lower about 10 mins after kick-off to stand a chance of seeing the second half

Lots of folk from NE Lincs get to watch a game at Blundell Park for the first time. They find the view of the Pontoon a bit restricted though.
