As I understand it our existing floodlights will be no more in the summer.

Anyone heard/know what type our new ones will be ?

I assume they will be either the ones attached to the stand roofs or the shorter ones now on top of a single pylon still in the corners.

Park your cars around the pitch, with your headlights on.
That solves two problems, the floodlight issue and parking around Blundell Park. 😎

Fans are being asked to being their fully charged mobile phones to games and to download the offical Grimsby Town Floodlight App. This will turn their phone into a torch for the duration of the game.

Safety notice: Please only point your phone at the pitch not at other fans (unless we are losing then opposition fans are fair game!)

I don't know what the final design will be but I have been told that the complete structures are going complete with the concrete plinths.

All games to be played down south then?  


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.

I also drive a crane for a living, and he knows that i am a town fan. He was gloating whilst informing me.

I’m guessing he was prepared to pay a couple of quid more than you for the exclusive GTFC  ‘crane’ experience  


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'

Although I live in immingham,  the crane firm I work for is based in Scunthorpe......which would be even worse.
