Grimsby are a mid table LG2 club. At  worst they are a national lg north club . That's the harsh reality of where they are now . IH isn't going to fix this .

I think at best a mid table league 1 club. Look at the good fan base and the history of the club. A lot of players pick up on that. I noticed one of our most recent signings did as well.

Ask Sunderland and Bradford how much attendances count for anything.

Makes a difference though to some players at all levels of the game though. You only need to ask Fernando Torres when he use to play at Liverpool or other players who have played at clubs lower down the pyramid. When they feel loved and wanted by manager and fans alike players thrive. Likewise some clubs have a more passionate/vocal set of supporters than others. I feel our club is one such club. Grimsby is not the most affluent place and the club serves as a  joy/hope/community to the local people.

Under the current regime your probably right  


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

This is one of those “if things stay as they are it will be the same” kind of threads.

If the club suddenly got £Xm input from somewhere the situation would be different.
If the club suddenly lost its main backer without replacement the situation would be different.

There is no sense to saying what the club is, other than it is at this moment in the sh!t.

We are indeed, but before this shower of s**t started I was surprised how high we were in the all-time league standings. The last 15 or more years has really made things look a lot worse than was historically the case.

We will rise again as they say.
