Then right at the death, Northampton equalised then Leyton Orient scored that left me feeling sick for a while.  I think it was under Slade when we lost to Cheltenham in the final at Cardiff.

Fair play Les, , , a true Town fan. Whis one of the 6 is your fav?? was 1972 the last title win?? Tim No 79/80 was the last title winning season when we beat Sheffield United 4-0 on the last day of the season at BP. They had one Alex Sabella in their team that day who would go onto become manager of Argentina. As for a favourite, although we had a fantastic team in that 79/80 season,  it would have to be the 98 Wembley double season. If you could guarantee winning then the play-offs make it all the more dramatic and enjoyable for me.

Grimsby and proud!

This I feel , influences mine and older supporters views from the younger ones . We have seen so many highs and lows , but the last ten years have been painful.  The feeling of promotion , and that first Wembley win , if you could bottle that emotion it would be worth a fortune .

I've been lucky enough to remember 6 promotion seasons, 1972 (just), 1979, 1980, 1990, 1991 and 1998. Here's hoping I'll witness another one in 2015. I feel for all our younger supporters who have only ever known us be pretty rubbish for most of the time. 6 for me too. Ist was 1972 under mcmenemy
