Main stand

Quoted from BobbyCummingsTackle

I'm not sure you could pay me enough to spend my working day on scaffolding on the Findus roof! The thought of it terrifies me and it'll be cold up there in August.

No such worries in 1972 as 22,484 crammed into Blundell Park to see Town beat Exeter City to clinch the title ! Fans on top of the old Barratt's Stand, cherry pickers my bottom !!!!!!!!!!!

A quick mention about the pitch, it’s simply superb, everyone sat around me on Saturday were marvelling about how fantastic it looked on our last home game of the season. Well done to all involved!!

I mentioned this a couple of weeks ago. In all the 58 years that I have been watching town I can't ever remember an end of season when the pitch looked as good as it does this season. I know the owners have spent a lot of money on the pitch but IMO it was money well spent. When you think back to the previous incumbent who ran the club like his ventures into the fish processing industry - second rate equipment, third rate raw materials but an expectation to produce a first class product - JS and AP understand the need to have the best equipment and materials to get the best result. Of course this is dependant on those responsible to source this.
A lot has been mentioned in other threads about the owners wanting an " Identity in how we play" a so called "Grimsby Way". I fully understand and get this. When the whole club structure is geared to this then it is easier to find a manager to fit that role. The way that clubs change managers mean that if you employ a manager with a game plan then he will bring in players to suit that style. When it doesn't work then you get rid of the manager but you are left with a squad of players geared up for that way. A new manager may have his own style in which a lot of his inherited players don't fit. Surely it's far better to change managers to play to a specified format than to completely change a squad to suit another managers preferred style?

I would like to see the Findus rebuilt as it was with the latch key door at the top of the steps to bring it back into line with the Main Stand
When are they going to reinstate the Boys Stand next to the Barrett?

I've no problem with the posts in the main stand, been sat in there so long you get used to them . My grumble is with the twots who arrive two minutes after kick off ,then want to be out before half time and come back just after second half kicks off . I'm up and down like a whores draws . Rant over .  U.T.M.

Not to mention the ones who think they can just stand at the barrier for the last 5 minutes so no-one in the front rows can see a fecking thing!

While the 'stewards' stand there wide eyed

Someone here reckoned Mr Stockwood has £100m to his name.  What's the point to having all that money just sitting in a bank?  Use it to build something that would benefit thousands of people.

In theory we could stay at BP, finish mid-table League One every year and maybe have a season in the Championship every ten years.  However, it is more likely that the general public would become apathetic and the club yo-yo between L1 and L2.  We know too well what happens when you assemble a poor squad in L2.
