We might not always agree with each other, but this forum is a thriving online community in comparison to those I have looked at, and for that I am grateful. There's always something of interest to read here or on non footy. It's been a constant GTFC presence in my life for years and years. Keep up the good work Rob, and other admins.  Long live the Fishy. "Pound for pound, and class for class, the best football team I have seen in England since the war. In the league they were in they played football nobody else could play. Everything was measured, planned and perfected and you could not wish to see more entertaining football." Bill Shankly, Manager GTFC 1951-54

They were a grumpy lot when in the National league, rightly so !! There have been some wonderfully insightful posters on the fishy over the years. I have even miss one or two…… I love the fishy ! long live the fishy you can take the boy out of grimsby......but you can't take grimsby out of his soul, his blood, his semen!

It took me ages to realise what they were. I wouldn’t even know how to see how many I’ve received. I’d be extremely upset should I receive more ticks than crosses. I guess the forum has to cater for all and that includes the young and those desperate for some recognition I guess… 'the poor and the needy are selfish and greedy'...well done Mozza

The whole set up of social media doesn't really lend itself to actually generating any worthwhile discussion in my opinion. Granted, I'm still bewildered by the penchant for adults to lose their minds on here about ticks and crosses. "Lovelly stuff! not my words but the words of Shakin Stevens."

Im really glad the fishy is around think its a much better way to communicate than on social media which is somehow 10 times more miserable than the fishy ever gets
