When was this exactly?

I see you mention the Lawrie Mac days, that’s 50 years ago for goodness sake, but don’t worry we’ve got Sunderland fans eulogising over former glories now although I’m not sure many of them were around watching Stokoe lift the Cup?



In the '80's maybe.

Grimsby Town average league attendances in the '80's

79/80 10,618 Tier 3
80/81 10,961 2
81/82 8,406 2
82/83 7,741 2
83/84 7,643 2
84/85 6,458 2
85/86 5,157 2
86/87 5,050 2
87/88 3,416 3
88/89 4.302 4
89/90 5,984 4

As you can see we started off the decade with excellent attendances when we came within a whisker of being the first team ever to go from Division 4 to Division 1 in successive seasons (a feat that has still not been done, and I doubt ever will). Gates gradually decreased as we got progressively worse until our double relegation but then picked up again when we won promotion from Division 4 in 1989/90 and was 7,237 the following season when we won a 2nd successive promotion.

Let's hope Dembele has a blinder and ups his value even more, come on Peterborough.



When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”
