Here's a couple of requests from the Fishy's postbag,

Trevor: I’m going on holiday in June to Iceland,I have been to the GTFC shop to purchase a Pom Pom hat with Grimsby Town printed on it,they do them in red an grey, the shop says they are getting some more in but not until next season, I would like to buy one if anyone has got one to sell

Adrian: I picked up your details on the internet as being a Grimsby Town expert, and I wonder if you can help me with a query? A friend of mine played for Rotherham United in a pre-season friendly away at Grimsby Town in August 1968. I wonder if you can tell me the date this game was played and the score? Will be VERY grateful.

Reply here if you can help!

What will this do for house fly evolution now the ones insensitive to heat are no longer at an advantage?  Will snowflake flies take over?

That was more of a T&A page than Q&A. Apparently.

If this is a serious thread Town beat Rotherham 2-0 on 29 July 1968. No record of the goalscorers and no match programme was issued.


The aim of argument or discussion should not be victory but progress.

Can we go back to all the weird stuff please

There is a good chance that I was at that match but have no memory of it,

I am however willing to go under a hypnotist to recall what happened.
