Quoted from DB
A null and void National league would be the best news ever. Gives Hursty time to build  a new squad for a promotion push next season.


I think it is pretty sad that some are hoping that another League has to shut down and that professional footballers aren't allowed to play the sport they love just to save our skins.

I’m sorry but if they abandon their season to save themselves financially, which is totally reasonable btw , I don’t care about it saving us so our new owners can start the rebuilding of gtfc next season.

I can't honestly see the government not changing their minds, if they ever made the decision at all. It's only a tweet which suggests they are loans. Once people kick up a fuss someone will just add it to the government's slate as they have done with so many other things.

looks like Wednesday might be an interesting day (something happening over the pond apparently as well on that day)

Think you’re right about the government Rob.

Though it’d be a relief for us it’d be a pretty unsatisfactory way to do it.


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.

I sympathise with them but it is Town who I am bothered about. I don't remember any sympathy for us, or Notts County, when we dropped into the national league as both are 'elder' clubs and founders of the FA etc.

If it's us or them, then can stay where they are till next season.


You can please some of the forumites some of the time but not all the forumites all of the time

I'm going to be a bit selfish on this one, after a year of a lot of selflessness. Our town and community need a football league club. It's not the fault of the fans that things have gone mammaries up recently. We've had too much false hope and let down in recent years and deserve better. Our people, our fans, deserve a reprieve. Covid doesn't put football into perspective, it merely enhances the crave for what you are missing. We've done our National League time. We've had that chapter. As a human being part of that being is pride in my football club and I need that back and a huge part of that is being a league club. I can't accept let down. I can't accept the usual Grimsby's risk averseness being to our detriment, whilst others flaunt/get lucky.  If they have to cancel the National League at this stage it's not like our luck would be down to a club folding. I would bloody take that but still would not accept bottom 2.

All the people that want it to fold are cowards. is this what football has come to ? Lack of Grimsby grit. Get a grip  I want is to stay up on our own merits, not due to the demise of others. If we go down, so be it and I will do it graciously. I believe we'll stay up but at least there will be something to play for.

Not sure my 'Grimsby grit' extends to 6 years of Boreham Wood away from home.

I'll tell you what, let's stop relegation altogether so football fans aren't disappointed.
