Paul Hurst reaction is absolutely amazing. Paul I doubt you no more you are part of us all.

The story of Operation Promotion is a thing of beauty, a Grimsby Legend for all generations of now and in the future.

I can look back and say I was there with Dis the captain, and the squad on that emotional roller coaster of a season when to be fair we all doubted we could do it but the squad had the guts and belief to see us home in the most dramatic way ever.

Our fans are unbelievable and their support is so envied by others we have left a rather big void in those non league grounds ans finances.

I didn't go to Braintree but was speaking to someone today who did. Can I just say a massive well done to everyone else who went when many had given up. This was the moment the team needed support and boy did they get it.

Honestly think that if you can watch that without feeling emotional, cry or well up you must be dead inside.

From that penalty things changed. I've never driven back from a game like I did against Braintree and felt so good after watching town...until the following week.

The greatest day supporting town...
