Are you for real? Would you consider yourself an Owl over being a Mariner, really? Surely not? If so, why the hatred for town? Why would you go out of your way to avoid being a town fan and choose Cleethorpes instead? Don’t get me wrong, I understand the stance of FC United of Manchester etc, but seriously, town need all the help they can get. I just don’t get it, I thought all people who followed Cleethorpes were Town fans first and foremost? Have I got this totally wrong?
Silly twit, Dave's an exiled cockney who puts his heart and soul into Clee Town. You've embarrased yourself massively there 👊💦

Heisenburg if we all stuck to your theory the only football teams around would be cities and big 'towns'.. What you're saying you could also say to Stockport, Accrington, fc unitedd and Manchester united fans.. Why support them when you can follow a 'decent' team, man City winning the prem etc..

I’m obviously in the minority here, ok. The way I see it is, maybe think of Blackpool a few years back. Their friendly neighbours fleetwood weren’t a threat at all, and probably spun the same line saying just as much. That didn’t stop them going a division above Blackpool in the matter of a few years. All of a sudden, fleetwood had the means to really give it a good go, so they did, and I’d imagine that not one player or fan of fleetwood regretted it or had 2nd thoughts about taking over local bragging rights. Any local side who has their own ground and can afford to pay ex-league players a wage is a threat. Anyway, I’ll leave it at that as I’m on my own with this one.

I go and watch Clee Town now and then and a lot of the fans there are Town fans always checking the town score.
Most i have talked to go because it’s more entertaining than watching Town under Slade and Jolly, it is also a lot cheaper, and you can get a pint at half time.
The majority there want down to do well but have lost all enthusiasm for going to watch them.
This is very sad, but I think is reflective of the mood amongst Town fans. Gates were as poor as the performances towards the latter end of last season. I, myself chose to stay at home for several games last season despite having paid for my season ticket as I was (to borrow a phrase from JF) quite frankly bored out of my bonce. Michael Jolley himself needs to take this negativity on board and turn it into a positive. And the only way he's going to do that is by playing attacking football instead of trying to strangle the life out of games and nick something. The club need to engage with the lost fans, let's hope we can get that takeover done and we can begin a new era together.

Two adult tickets for Clee Town friendly going free to a good home. Let me know if interested. Two no shows and I'd prefer someone got to use them.
Interested, if not already gone.

'I walked in the dressing room. The window was open and I thought that a sea fret had got in. Then I saw smoke billowing from a pipe in the corner of the room...it was my centre-forward. He looked seven stone wet through. He went on to score thirty-odd goals that season.' Lawrie McMenemy on encountering the legend that was Matt Tees.
