I have it on good authority that the players were highly impressed by the number of fans and the support they gave last night considering the long distance on a Tuesday night and that some were boycotting the game.

How can they fail to be impressed, most of them will never have seen such loyal and passionate support, backed by unique Grimsby humour before.

I can’t remember the exact lyrics, and even if I could I wouldn’t be allowed to write them ALL on here, but the song about “all we can see are empty seats” was classic

After hearing this song regularly when we played at the Arena, it’s something along the lines of:
“They’re here, they’re there, they’re fooking everywhere, empty seats, empty seats” & repeat.

That’s the one Andy, and a few fans I spoke to compared it to Darlington away over 10 years ago (was it Russell Slades first spell first game?) where I seem to recall only the ends were open?

Thought the drummer did a sterling job last night  - and a good buzz throughout the night in the Town end

We always had 3 stands open, always had the North Stand (opposite the dugouts) unless we had the likes of Newcastle/Sunderland or playoff games to host.

So glad we’re out of it now, nothing but a nightmare to be in. Hope you lot never find yourselves in that situation.

Yes i felt that something is starting to happen here.  The 'all in it together' feel good feeling is returning and the way the players clapped us for so long brought back memories of the bond we had with the players from the conference promotion squad.
May it continue to grow.
Town fans are ace!

Spot on, this is exactly what I said after the game - add the fact that a lot are on two year contracts, it helps to make it feel that we're all in it together and trying to build something here.
