Given the question about 0-0 draws thought it would be interesting to look at the other end of the goalscoring scale.

Grimsby once went 39 home games without failing to score a goal. When was this?

Also, during this period, the defence did something else which I'm fairly sure will never have happened at any other English club. What is that?


No attempt at ethical or social seduction can eradicate from my heart a deep burning hatred of the Tory party. So far as I'm concerned they're lower than vermin. Aneurin Bevan.

Pre WW2 folks.....Helps if you've got a copy of the excellent Grimsby Town FC Complete Record. The defensive thing is mind blowing by the way.

Something to do with the 1928/29 season when we won promotion from the Old Division Two?

Same back 4 every game?
