As long as we don't remotely flirt with relegation again I'll be happy, oh and Scunny struggling in the National League would be the icing on the cake.

Yeah but its rare that a team finishing in the bottom 2 places goes up.
Rare but not unheard off

Here's what he said to me

Oh Grimsby Grimsby
Whatever will be will be
You'll follow then faithfully
Oh Grimsby Grimsby


Tell me Mam me Mam
I dont want no tea no tea
I'm watching the Grimsby

Promotion. There isn't a right lot in this league. I remember a lot of tight games without a great deal of quality, even when we were really rubbish in 20/21, very few sides looked any good, we were just dreadful. With a few quality players who are playing below their natural level, and Hursty getting a tune out of them (Wearne, Glennon and particularly McAtee) plus carrying on the momentum of getting promoted, I fancy our chances.

Certainly got the chance to finish in our highest position since Slade 1, which is an age ago.

Quoted from thefish


Sadly, in Bradford, Salford and Stockport (have I missed anyone?), we have some sides that’ll be able to throw a lot more money at it than us. As we know, cash doesn’t guarantee success… but it certainly gives you an advantage.

So, I’d be happy with top half, ecstatic with playoffs and I’ll run towards Scunthorpe with my ears cupped (think McAtee towards the Wrexham fans) if we gain automatic promotion.


Understand what you’re saying but last season we had Stockport, Wrexham and Chesterfield throwing cash at it.  Two of them failed.  Money is a great enabler but it doesn’t replace structure and desire.

2022/23 season....

Lincoln relegated to League Two
Town promoted to League One
Scunny relegated to the National League North

If Carlsberg did football seasons

Realistic is 1st. We haven't got Fenty anymore and we are Grimsby in division 4. All those wasted years under his regime, we haven't got time to waste.

I think Stockport will be very competitive this season. They have all that backing plus the same momentum and feel-good factor that we have. Their form in the last 2/3 of last season was almost perfect, barring a wobble when promotion got within touching distance. Bradford, that could go one of two ways I suspect and I'm not sure anyone would be mentioning Northampton if it wasn't for them pinching Fox. I think we've quietly assembled a very exciting and strong side/squad that could go places.
