Does anyone remember 20 years ago or so you could by a kind of car sticker thing that had a pen attached to it from souvenir shops usually at seaside resorts?

The sticker was essentially a small plastic card mini shirt with a suction cup to fix it to a window. They were very generic like "Manchester C, Manchester U, Sheffield W etc, the Town one just said "Grimsby", the pen was just white with Grimsby written in black on the side, really basic and tacky.

I bought one of these from Cornwall, must have been 1999 or 2000?

I bought a town wembley 98 shirt at the stadium.

Wore it in Vegas and Hawaai  also wore an England shirt with just the cross on it no wording.

That baffled the guide and he knew we were from England.  h

I know you’re telling the truth. Because I have the same set !!

Tallest about 3’’’ smallest about 1’’


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

When I was in the Navy I served on HMS Minerva and while we were on a trip around the Mediterranean (1991) I gave my Town scarf to a pub owner in Varna who hung it above the bar, I do sometimes still wonder if it’s still there.  


Grimsby and proud!

No problem, you pay my modest expenses and go look for you.

I seem to remember there was a great story a number of years back about a Town fan who got caught up in a military coup while working in Africa, and ended up spending days stood on an oil barrel at gunpoint.

Thinking he was about to be shot dead, he offered his Town shirt to his captor who agreed to spare his life in return.

I’m sure I remember reading something to that effect. Can anyone confirm I’m not imagining things?
