I’m sure a massive company like ‘Extreme’ could overcome the small problem of the tides etc. I guess they’d just change the orbit of the moon slightly. Surely with all the resources they have at their disposal it would only take a couple of weeks at most 😉 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'

This would require some, if not all of the basin behind it to be filled in, with the rest made into a marina, as shown on the model.

I'd love the idea of the stadium being on the docks too. It's what was called "pneumonia" or South Quay.. definitely will require half the old dock being filled in and as you can guess by the coloquelism it'll be flipping freezing pin there!..

If it's not fit for housing, it's certainly not fit for a football stadium with the potential to accommodate up to 20,000 people! "Knowledge speaks, but wisdom listens." (Jimi Hendrix)

I really hope we get a new stadium but I hope it doesn't look like this!

An artists impression. They do say they will consult with the people of Grimsby, but unless you have a spare billion like Tottenham, you are a bit limited to basic structures of some sort.

It’s just a flat pack box, with a floating roof bolted on. I realise that nobody would build a new ground with different stands, but there is just no character in these newer grounds.
