Well, lets look on the bright side. This forum would never survive with out the "Artell out", "Relegation threatening", "Sack the board", "Bad signings", "Wouldnt survive without Rose", "Need more signings", "No bog roll in toilets", "Subs on too late", "Data,data, data", "Ref was excrement", Its all fking doom and gloom before we even kick off. I just love the moaners and the shtty replies, i excell with it. 63 years of supporting this Club, and the only demise of the Club is on this Forum. The late Saturday paper with results was all we had with Charles Ekberg and the ever changeable Mighty Mariner face, backed up by chips and peas on the way home. All hopes were lost by checking our Littlewoods Pools coupon when a sure bet let us down, kicking the dog to help him on his walk, and moaning at the wife and regretting it the next morning when you know you have to make it up by scratting the spuds etc etc. Oh for the people who wish they could be in our clan of not having dementia and remembering the youthful days of us Pontoonites, and i for one was a promotional pontoonite after doing my apprenticeship in the Boys Stand in the Barrets. So, where do we stand??? We stand high, we are GTFC, we sing when fishing, nobody can take that away from us. For future reference to you all, Believe, yes, believe in the Club. I moan and pick at some on here, so i apologise, Its my Grimsby blood pressurising. and only one more thing to say... Up Te Bloody Mariners.

Oh dear, didn’t go today but having read the excellent posts I’ve clearly wasted my money on season ticket. I don’t know whether to laugh or cry! Or maybe it’s just preseason and it means absolutely nothing.

I don’t think I’ve seen anyone claim it means anything? Just stating a fact that we were really poor.

I’ve seen us have great pre seasons and crap seasons & vice versa.
It’s a tale as old as time, yet people still get their knickers in a twist and think the seasons over after one loss in pre season.
Artell has already said, it’s an extension of training and we don’t need to overthink anything at this point.
If you’re genuinely worried, go and have a pint.
Amen

We’re so bad defensively even the shop scored against us. I love the shop, really pleased he scored. There, my emotions are drained

The only valid reason for a bit of wailing and gnashing of teeth at this stage would be another injury to a senior player, if indeed that is the case with Thompson. A shite start to the season because of a number of key players being out injured is still a shite start. This is where I’d hope the owners would give DA some budget flexibility. The friendlies against Rotherham and Mansfield is when we’d want to see more than a kick about in the sun and with a full squad to choose from
