Sorry but that is utter rubbish I have supported GTFC over fiffty years and WANT us to move to a new ground.

B.P. is a sad shadow of it's former self. No Nostalgia just sorry to say the young fans will NEVER see a home crowd of 10k plus and the sort of atmosphere/noise that goes with it.

No nostalgia trip from me we need a new stadium that is up to date and not a fecking eye sore.

I challenge anyone to enter the ground from Harrington Street and feel happy with what they see dog excrement and all.


As much as I've loved our ground over the years, I think it truly lost its heart when the Barratt was pulled down. It used to be a terrifying ground for the opposition to play in when all the stands were the same level and height; an intensity to the atmosphere that we've never really recaptured. We've obviously had some great moments, post-1980, but nothing will compare with nights like the Everton or Wolves games (night games, in particular, always seemed just a little bit more exciting, too).

Personally I can't wait for us to go to a new ground.

Never mind the opposition. It used to terrify me when the Barratt Stand used to move  


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Only one individual to blame for our club not advancing in any way.


In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

I learned early on not to stand too near the crash barrier halfway down the stand. 'Why's someone spilt hot orangejuice down there grandad?'
