Like the lad’s work. Doesn’t always appear to help himself, though…

Quoted Text
RL: I’m a lifelong Grimsby Town supporter, and as with a large majority of kids that I grew up with in the 80s and 90s, I also follow Manchester United.



A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

He added a flag, which is pretty poorly presented, ask a group of Primary kids and they could have probably come up with something more interesting.

I haven’t seen this much of a come-and-get-me-plea to any Glazers since Geoff Broome attended the Solaglas Christmas do dressed as Jimmy Savile.

Any self-respecting 80s/90s kid in Grimsby spent their childhood trying not to be followed by him. Fück United.

He went to school with my son, and he still goes to quite a few town games. So he’s done good as far as I’m concerned.

Out of my 4 best mates who go to Town games, I know for a fact that two of them follow Man Utd more avidly and have supported both clubs since childhood. It’s deplorable, but I think I’m in the minority when it comes to being a one-club town fan. Unfortunately.

My nephews always ask me who I support.

I say Grimsby.

They look at me a bit funny and say "yeah but who do you actually support?", or sometimes even "what proper team?" lol.....

Very confusing for them.

I know around 5 or 6 that go regularly to both Forest and Notts games but they are all over 50,I don’t know anyone else who supports another team outside of the city as well as Notts but I suppose that anyone born in the Sky area will more likely to  support a Premier League club rather than Grimsby or Notts solely due to exposure,glamour and high profile players
