Quoted from GrimRob


We can go an awful, awful lot lower than we are now. In ten years time might might be wishing we were at the level of budget and support we are now.


So why do you continue to support the regime that has brought us to this level and continues to show that it is incapable of bringing any level of success to the club?

If only footballers could be like pop stars,

They would still be playing in their 70's

Just think what team we could put out,

If by the regime you mean our majority shareholder, then I support him because nobody has ever presented a viable Plan B. The last two years have seen us improve, not as much as I or others would like, but I fear we are about to plunge down a further level.

Rob, so why do you keep telling everyone that well reach the playoffs or maybe hit the top spot, then you say you fear we might plunge to a level below....

Could you please let us know his seat number or thereabouts Oldun, then we can avoid that area aswell. Oh sh!t,it might be me you are talking about.I could try a different deodorant,do you think that might help.  Someone near me keeps having a drag on one of those "E"fags,they stink as bad as ordinary cigs.

I play walking football twice a week down Bradley and I can honestly say there are one or two playing down there that would have given Altringham more problems than Town did last night.

I'm with Rob and Jock on this. When you signed the psychological contract to be a Grimsby Town supporter did you sign it with the caveat that it only counts when things are going well? Did you f*ck. Smaller attendances means smaller budgets and the likelihood of us staying down here for longer/ceasing to exist grows larger. Any supporter of a lower league club who says they go to watch expecting to be entertained is either a fool or a liar. We go to watch in the hope of seeing our team win. Any mere glimpse of entertaining or attractive football is a rare bonus.

If you want to see this club improve, vote with your feet and turn up to BP.

I agree with what you are saying,

BUT

Some supporters and they are supporters want to be entertained or at least see Town win,

When that does not happen on a regular basis they stay away,

They will return when things improve,
