As a season ticket holder, it does not matter if you attend or not, you will still be counted as being there.


IF YOU PLAY FOR THE BADGE ON THE FRONT OF YOUR SHIRT
THEY WILL REMEMBER THE NAME ON THE BACK OF IT





You can change your wife, your house, your car, but you can never change your team.
Chairmen come and go, boards come and go, but the fans remain.
They are the one true constant

It’s alright talking about protests on here but do the fishy posters seriously think that this fishy hatred of Fenty is a general consensus amongst the other 5000 town fans?
Delusional is a word that springs to mind!


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. Promise a man someone else's fish and he votes Labour.

The fabled fishy minority. I think you will find that roughly the same representative sample of people on the fishy who are anti Fenty, will be reflected in the general fan base. It's how Mori polls are conducted.

Unless you are saying that most fishy posters are particularly venomous and troublesome. My regular group is now down from four regular season ticket holders to one season ticket holder and me. I'm still going, just, but on a game by game basis. The other three in the group, two of whom have given up, all blame the board for our predicament. None of them use the fishy.

Make of that what you will.

If everyone protests can you guarantee we will win the next six matches?

You best pop round the 1,000 + who have stopped going, 5,000 Town fans, not with whats on offer, I don't hate Fenty I wish him no ill, however I hate what he and his yes men has done and continues to do to the club, both he and the yes men need to go, their time is up, just go already.

Do you love Fenty now, since he had a word with you.


Supporting the Mighty Mariners for over 30 years, home town club is were the heart and soul is and it's great to be a part of it.

With all things Mariner's at the lowest I can ever remember (aside from the last time John Fenty got us relegated from the football league), I think it's time for another organised and peaceful protest against his reign.

Under John Fenty, we have almost been relegated from the football league on THREE different occasions. We have spent SIX seasons in the Conference - absolutely unthinkable. And I think we can all see what is going to happen unless we are very fortunate this season.

I know he wants to go, I want him to name his terms publicly. Is he asking too much? Is there anybody at all interested?

I call for an organised protest in the car park and in the stands. It is time for him to go, I am prepared to take my chances on the grass being greener. It cannot get any worse under his tenure, he has been a disaster for Grimsby Town, my patience has absolutely run out.

Time to go John, time to be open and honest about the 'benign loans'. The club is worthless, the ground decrepit, the team awful. We have been looking up at Scunthorpe for years, now even Lincoln are a better and bigger club than us. We are pathetic, and it's time for someone else to have a go.

Name your terms, publicly. Leave our club.


Erm, re-election days anyone? Haven't we hovered above the trap door several times in our illustrious past?

Good God that was decades ago!!

Are we not to try to reclaim our club from the one person who has just about destroyed it, because at some time in the distant past it was as bad??

Yes we have been as bad in the past, but was it for such a long period, or was it just the ebb and flow you get with lower league clubs? Fans expect a bad season or two, but we never get the good ones that balance it out and keep you going. We can't even compete in this league, which given our fan base is unforgivable.
