Thats it! He's sealed it! Grimsby Town are back in the football league!!! Just a minute to go and Nathan Arnold makes it 3-1! Look at the scenes behind the goal! Look at the relief! The agony is finally over!!!" John Tondeur - Wembley Stadium Sunday 15th May 2016

Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

According to a Wrexham fan I know TNS make Crawley seem like a friendly club with morals and are on a par with MK Dons. Llansantffraidd was the name of the the first club Mike Harris, their owner, killed to make his TNS Franchise. But TNS Franchise outgrew their village team hosts and went to look for a fresh victim, which came in the form of Oswestry Town. Since killing off them, Mike Harris tried to move his franchise to the Deva Stadium when Chester City were in their death throes and to Wrexham when they were in difficulty. Horrible guy, horrible club according to him!

Coke Drinker Posts: 24 Posts Per Day: 0.01	Weren't they in Europe a few seasons ago?  Quite a way to fall, Man City (I think they played) to teams like Ashington in the FA Trophy. NO it shouldn't be allowed.  It's effectively the same as Lyon entering the FA Cup. I don't get why teams like Swansea, Cardiff and Wrexham are in Enlgish leagues either?

Nail on head comment for me, they are not English therefore they shouldn't be in our league or cup competitions.

It was the first season that the winners of The Champions League the season before didn't qualify automatically for the Group Stages and Liverpool had to enter the qualifying rounds. I think there was some talk at the time that Liverpool wouldn't be allowed in The Champions League but in the end UEFA let them enter the qualifying rounds.

The problem is that the FA have already set a precedent by allowing teams like Newport County and Merthyr to take part in the FA Cup and FA Trophy. The Future is Black & White.

An astute old man told me once that just because something was always allowed or done in a certain way doesn't make it right.  Just needs someone with gonads to make it right   Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.
