Although I'm a Tory, I'd rather see Melanie Onn win Grimsby as Ayling is not only a nutter, but UKIP will kill the stadium plan stone dead with their "Pye in the Sky" idea.  

Coalition pleasantries don't extend to DeFreitas and I hope whoever the best place candidate in Park manages to unseat him, who happens to be Ian Townsend.  Not only is Ian Treasurer of the Mariners Trust, I also had the pleasure of working with him about ten years ago and he's a really decent bloke who would make a great councillor as well as a brilliant advocate for the club.  I hope my fellow Tories can put party loyalties to one side if they live in Park and give Ian their backing.

So what exactly have Labour done for the new ground these past 20 years.

Martin Vickers sits near me in the upper find us. Not sure about his view on relocation though.


"Falls to Arnold... Arnold! That's it! 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!!!"

Zilch, in common with all other parties.  The area has been badly served by politicians of all parties.  I think Martin Vickers has been good for the area and is a Town fan.  I would imagine he is for the relocation, but MPs tend to be careful voicing opinions on planning matters so as not to damage one side.  I would be amazed if John Fenty hasn't been having conversations with Martin about the subject.

I'm no Tory, but he's a big town fan, spoke to him on the train a few weeks ago and he's very excited about plans for the new ground, he feels it will have a similar effect to what happened to Doncaster rovers, he came across as a decent nice genuine guy who hasd time to listen not at all what you expect from a politician!

Mr Defreitas and his Lib Dems didn't look to kindly on it.

Labour's candidate for the Park Ward is the Mariner's Trust secretary, I believe.


No he isn't!

Labour weren't in charge at the time of the Great Coates debacle. It was a Tory/Lib Dem coalition...ring any bells!?

Quoted from Theimperialcoroner
Fruitcake ex Tory Ukipper, Victoria Ayling wants to build it on Pywipe between the sewerage outfall and the fishmeal factory. But only when the renewable energy runs out.


Which is the perfect metaphor for them really.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Quoted from Grim up north
As it's nearly voting time and there's not a lot to choose between the different parties can anyone remember which ones were against the stadium so i can wipe them off the list.


Here's the original thread with the views of Parliamentary candidates for GY

http://www.thefishy.co.uk/cgi-bin/forum/Blah.pl?m-1424478315/s-0/



"Pound for pound, and class for class, the best football team I have seen in England since the war. In the league they were in they played football nobody else could play. Everything was measured, planned and perfected and you could not wish to see more entertaining football." Bill Shankly, Manager GTFC 1951-54
