As I understand it our existing floodlights will be no more in the summer.

Anyone heard/know what type our new ones will be ?

I assume they will be either the ones attached to the stand roofs or the shorter ones now on top of a single pylon still in the corners.

Park your cars around the pitch, with your headlights on.
That solves two problems, the floodlight issue and parking around Blundell Park. 😎

From what I have heard there will be some lights on them.

Fans are being asked to being their fully charged mobile phones to games and to download the offical Grimsby Town Floodlight App. This will turn their phone into a torch for the duration of the game.

Safety notice: Please only point your phone at the pitch not at other fans (unless we are losing then opposition fans are fair game!)

I don't know what the final design will be but I have been told that the complete structures are going complete with the concrete plinths.

It was on Look North the other day and it was mentioned a Crane is coming in and the Pylons are going to be cut into smaller parts and then put in a skip to be taken away

I’m guessing he was prepared to pay a couple of quid more than you for the exclusive GTFC  â€˜crane’ experience  ;)

Although I live in immingham,  the crane firm I work for is based in Scunthorpe......which would be even worse.
