I had my stag weekend at Blundell Park watching my beloved Mariners beat Notts County... I met the board , the manager ( top bloke ) several players in the dressing room PRIOR to kick off... lovely 3 course meal in the MacMenemy Suite.... great seats in the Upper Findus... Dave Smith looked after us all superbly well... then I spent the night on the ale in several bars rammed with Town fans... ending up in the Smugglers... Great thanks to all fellow town fans i met that night. They helped make it a most memorable weekend which will never be forgotten. 2 of my buddies, Man City and Leicester fans said they would never have believed our supporters commitment and the atmosphere....  anyway.... just to let the Fishy Folk know.. I got hitched on May 22nd. on the Island of Zante....  wifey and myself are now looking forward to next season...  she having been converted to a town fan a few years back.... UTM... bring it on.....

Congratulations, that was a close run thing though, just think if Slade had still been in charge how different the day would have been.

I think we all did, Slade was the captain.

I believe he mentioned it would be a titanic task trying to restore our past glories when he came here... I didn't realise he was a Captain Smith in disguise  ;)

Any Mr Elton, good to hear that your stag do went swimmingly before you embarked on your marriage but make sure you don't ever forget your first love... Grimsby Town  :)

Been to Tsilivi seven times and there when they won Euros and it was one crazy night. Lad from bar in the high street, Mavrios, was signed by Sunderland and played for them in the Premiership but fair to say he was not a success but when we first went he was about 11 serving and collecting glasses nice lad and he was in the bar on our last visit a couple of years back.

Love it there everyone remembers you and treats you like lost family member (who they like!!). Probably go again next year.
