It's murder trying to get a beer at that little bar just behind the turnstiles now with everyone piling in. The queue for the gents lacks structure and gets in the way of fans trying to get up and down the stairway. Great to see all these extra fans but jeez do we need a new stadium. I wouldn't say I was the best manager in the business. But I was in the top one. Brian Clough.

There's a sign on the wall about the gents queue, probably new, unless I've just not noticed it before. Seems odd to be moaning about toilets, parking, and not the owners, the players, the food or the management!   This thread is ideal for moaning about there being not enough to own about 😀😉 #newera;   New owners, new approach;  'we bought Grimsby Town to help renew the place we love'   Join the Trust, get involved: UP THE MARINERS!   Logged Offline 5 1 0 Reply: 5 - 38 LH October 23, 2021, 9:39am Moderator Posts: 10,129 Posts Per Day: 1.98 Reputation: 75.9% Rep Score: +30 / -10 Approval: +13,569 Gold Stars: 56 Parking.

It wont seem very far to walk home if we win but it'll seem like a marathon if we happen to lose.

I’m there on my own today due to Covid isolations so rather than frustrate myself I’m walking the 4miles there. I agree, parking within easy walking distance can be a nightmare now. So much so that I've now been going about an hour earlier than normal to get a space where I usually park, and just sitting in the car listening to music or Radio Hullberside. Thankfully today I'm being dropped off and picked up by a friend so today will be fine.
