There will be a lot of hurt anger and upset tonight, i feel empty, we’ve had it. Im sure you all feel the same
But my brother- who has downsyndrome- as most of you know, is absolutely desolate. He’s lost everything over the last year, shielded, none of his clubs, not seeing his carer or friends. He bought his ST same as me more in hope. In tears in his room, as the slow realistation hits him that our club is once again heading for the hellhole
Theres many to blame in this, i’ll admit i expected more of Hurst, i really did. But this was set in stone with the decisions of john fenty Phillip day and Ian Holloway long before this season started. And they’ve broken me, my poor brother and 4000 loyal supporters
How can we come back again

Give him a big hug from all the fishy x
|
| 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. GOD |

I feel your pain mate, we all do.
All I can say is that we have been rock bottom before, but have gone on to have great times.
I don't know how old you are, but I am 62 and my first season as a regular fan was 1971-72 which was fantastic. Yet a couple of years earlier we had had to seek re-election.
I saw us relegated to Div 4 in the mid 70's but then the might Joe Waters/Moore/Drinkell/ Ford side was the best Town side I have ever seen and we nearly made it to the top division.
We had a dreadful side in 88 when we had suffered a double relegation, but then Buckley arrived and we enjoyed two lengthy spells in the second tier and had some great memories.
I have seen us relegated 7 times. Each time it seemed like the end of the world, but in fact we bounce back time and time again.
We are about to get new owners and I think they will bring good times back, I really do.
So don't despair. We have come back before, and we will again.

Just let him know he has a band of brothers and sisters who share his pain and eventually all of them will be glad to see him once the football gates are back open, managers come and go, players come and go, directors come and go (eventually) but we remain constant and between us WE are this club and WE are family. Sorry to hear another "brother" is hurting right now , but one day we will be smiling together again. UTM

Get your arm round him and remind him all is not lost. Was a tight game lost on small margins and we weren’t too bad. It looks bleak and I’m hurting today but there is still a way to travel and I expect many ups and downs between now and the finish.
I’m sure if the worst happens we will still go and at least Fenty won’t be involved in it.

Very sad to hear this mate. It feels now the course is set and we are down, but we will have good days again and it's going to take some time to get to them, but they will come. If it helps then let your brother know that how he feels about GTFC is how a lot of people feel and with new ownership we can have positive reset of the club.
