Or just not go, whichever is easier.


Far too elaborate.

This should have been a really short thread.

It would be far better to apply their heavy handed tactic towards their fans next season at BP. The EFL have set a precedent by allowing this to  unpunished even after admitting that these incidents did occur. I know it sounds like " mammary for tat " but see how their management would deal with this approach to their female fans. If this had occurred at one of the smaller Premiersh*t grounds like Stoke or Bournemouth and been directed at fans of one of the " Big Six " clubs then there would have been hell on. It would have been all over the national papers and probably tv as well.

The EFL whitewash definitely needs exposing for what it is, there's no doubt.

But.. since when has it become the Grimsby way to start boycotting everything? In adversity in the past we used to be much more ballsy. Do us wrong and we'll come back at you twice as hard, that was the Grimsby way. What's wrong with selling out the Stevenage away end next year showing them that they can fook us around all they like, we're still here, bigger and bolder than ever.

We all accuse the FA and the EFL of using money as bribes to get what they want out of the game, yet, are we any better in using money (by way of reduced gate receipts) to get our point across. Don't get me wrong there's obviously a massive point to be made but should it made by denying ourselves watching an away match?  

Fans are now looking to boycott Stevenage, FGR and Cheltenham away because of recent issues. Where's this going to end? In years to come are half the Football League clubs going to be on the banned away day list? What happens if one of those games is really crucial? Does the team not get our support? Or is it ok to break the boycott when we can pick and choose to do so?

As a set of supporters, I think we're better than boycotting (Checkatrade apart) and should throw our weight behind exposing the inequity in that EFL statement in a much more positive way than boycotting..

I am very uneasy with what Bigdog posts above... why? As it’s the 2nd time in a week I agree with him😉

When they come to BP later this season let’s make them welcome (let’s face it they won’t bring many) and if we have to go back there go in numbers and make some noise.

Hey, Stevenage I know you've treated us like excrement before would you like £40'000?
