Transport links are poor around Scartho baths Rancido. Can't see that one. That said, Peaks Parkway has been shite since this new speed limit was brought in.

Not many home fans would either! Personally, I think that, given the large number of exiles who travel to home matches, a site near the A180 makes most sense - somewhere round Great Coates perhaps?  |

Maybe , but there are more bus routes going past the baths than there are going down the parkway. |

We seem to have had a succession of backward thinking councils for as long as I can remember. It doesn't seem to matter what political persuasion they are they all seem to morph into the same backward thinking monster. As JF said , a docks site is out of the question because of the exhorbitant cost of filling in the Fish Dock. Freeman street would be a nightmare because the land is owned by various individual entities. Anywhere north of the A180 , on the Humber Bank strip , would be a non-starter because that land is reserved for industrial use only. The Parkway seems a good option but who knows what will happen after the viability study is completed. Wherever it is ,the plans should be cast in stone so that if we have a change of council the long term plan remains the same. If the council are so hell bent on flattening Scartho Baths then why not that site ?
Yeah I saw that on look north (yet again no grimsby on sport just hull and scunny) but residents want to keep it but the councillors don't want to listen because they have there own ideas and plans and there is no one who can stop them. I hate politians etc why can't things be decided by the public. They are adamant in building a new centre somewhere else yet we have grimsby leisure and cleethorpes leisure are these not good enough? Do we need 3 swimming pools ? Can't schools be used that have swimming pools, anyway I think a petition at the ground for home and away fans will increase the vote for a new ground think about all the different away fans that may sign it. Having said that these councillors will do what they please. |

I think Moosey has come up with a great suggestion in Waltham Airfield - there is hundreds of acres of totally unused land there that has just sat derelict for decades, enough for a ground and retail units/ hotel, or whatever is needed to make a new ground feasible, not the perfect place road access wise, but then again neither is Peakes Parkway.
Been saying this for years, its on the A16 corridor, opens the door to more of lincolnshire to come take a look, no real housing in close vacinity, especially if you construct nearer the a16 side, existing cheapside facility could be retained for use and its a brownfield site so less red tape to overcome. |

Macauley Tip is a great call. It looks like great coates is a no goer and Peaks parkway as so many problems, The Docks are inaccessible for security issues. Macauley Tip is right off the a180 ideal fast getaway. Fast food outlets and a prem inn on the door step it is not going to interfere with the town centre. Would liven up a run down area. I am sure the nearby rail could be adapted via a bus route. The old tip is not ideal for building houses (known issues with building on old rubbish tips) but would be ideal for a sports stadium and a icon for Grimsby. Imagine driving in off the M180/A180 and seeing the floodlights all lit up amazing sight. WHAT THE HELL ARE WE WAITING FOR? |

The old 9 hole at Humberston. The NIMBYS have stopped houses being built there so its got to be used for something  |
| In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.
