Burn the main stand down and use the £ to bang up an open terrace in its place for now!


Hello Alex May, I thought you would have taken your love for East Midlands football clubs to Scunthorpe by now. Saying that, tin doesn't burn as well as wood does it?

If we are going to get a new stadium I've come up with 2 brilliant sites - what about Great Coates or even Peaks Parkway ?

There's an article in today's Telegraph about the old flats site that suggests Freeman Street is still a possibility for a stadium:

https://www.grimsbytelegraph.co.uk/news/grimsby-news/derelict-3-acre-site-freeman-7889406

A pleasant surprise, as Philip Jackson said on Radio Humberside a few weeks ago that Freemo was "dead in the water".

There is some truth in what the GT print, particularly the price. Apart from that, I don't believe anything else. Reporter raking up old news to fill a column.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

Spoke with some Donny fans after the game and they said how good it was to be at an old school ground with a cracking atmosphere from the 3 home stands.


Really? They'd rather go back to Belle Vue?

The Keepmoat is sh!t for atmosphere because it is usually no more than half full.

A bit deluded if you think away fans won't go into the town centre pre match, of course they will.
It would just mean them getting a cab or bus etc to the ground and having us pencilled in as a excrement awayday.


Some visiting supporters might travel by train, but the majority will be on coaches or in cars.  Why would the latter visit a half-empty Freshney Place prior to a match at Grimsby West?  More likely Birchin Way McDonalds and KFC.

If the council have an ounce of common sense, they won't grant permission for a 15k stadium on Peaks Parkway.  The traffic congestion up to Lockhill roundabout would be horrendous.

One of them actually referred to Belle Vue as being good ....I laughed at the suggestion   reminded them it was a decaying sh1t hole and the only thing of note was watching the gliders taking off and rising up over the far end.
