I remember 1 game v Port Vale in the 2nd tier when the gate was less than 3500!

The stayaways missed a treat though as it was probably our best performance that season and we won 4-1.


Seems to be a consistent thing there - some of our "fans" also used to like to fight with people from the Potteries...

Yeah, I remember the scrapping in the car park after the game when we won 1-0 there last game of the season and they went down.

I won't mention Stoke!

Our games against Stoke always seemed to be well attended and  over 10000 , we’d have a couple of thousand just turn up for aggro 😂

An equally cheap shot in return ... how do you explain 7k at Hillsborough, followed by just 4,197 in the 2nd Tier at BP v Port Vale, you can hardly blame Fenty for that?  

If its any consolation I went to Wealdstone's old Lower Mead Stadium back in 87' for a dreadful 0-0 draw played in thick fog.


Like a moth to a flame young man you cant keep away

Hope you`re health is better than it was mate and the explanation for the above is any chance to go and upset the natives of Yorkshire is deemed a good day out. Has it happened typical Grimsby lost 7-1 but scored to goal of the tournament and probably half the 7k had left the ground.

My memory of that 7-1 game at Wednesday has gone a bit haywire over the resulting years since. I always thought that we were 7 nil down when Oster scored that goal, I didn't realise it was "only" 5 nil when he scored.

We said at HT if Weds score again first in the 2nd half were off.Pretty sure they scored after a minute
