Can anyone think of one?? Have a mate who jokes that I always find some link to Town when big games are one and has challenged me to find one to this game. Got me stuck, Anyone with encyclopaedic knowledge and a skill in creating tenuous links able to help me out!  :)

We’ve beaten both finalists this century?

The last time we played Liverpool, we won.

The last time we played Tottenham, we won.

Gary Birtles....won it twice when it was the European Cup.

Danny Rose's brother used to play for us?

James Milner played for Swindon against us in 2003?

Erm, that's the best I can do!

Ah, I was just thinking about that the other day, what year Milner came to Blundell Park with Swindon, I remember being at that game.

Yeah it was the game after that Hartlepool game.

Hartlepool?

Remember them....when we were their feeder club?  ;D

Some good ones there! Not surprisingly, I’ve brought out the Danny Rose a few times already!

We've never had as many foreigners in our team as they have, even under Lenny Lawrence!

Well if you are doing tenuous.  Raheem Sterling played at BP for an England youth team.  He may well finish in the league above Spurs and Liverpool.  Man City could well have got to the CL final if they had beaten Spurs.

Well if we're talking premier league Ryan Bennett could be a big part of deciding who wins the league if man City don't find it as easy as everyone expects them to at brighton

This one’s a bit tenuous: Tottenham and Liverpool are both - like Town - football clubs.

Former Tottenham and Grimsby midfielder Ciaran Toner once went to Liverpool

We've all played at Wembley and won!!...that's the best I can do.

Former manager Kenny Swain won it with Aston Villa and Ivano Bonetti played for Sampdoria in 92 final v Barcelona.

Grimsby have  got to Wembley more times in the last 11 years than both Spurs and Liverpool if you don't count Spurs league games there.

Like Spurs and Liverpool, we often struggle with not having enough tickets allocated to us when playing away from home  ;D

Liverpool had never won the European Cup / Champions League until they appointed a former Town manager ....

Spurs have never won the European Cup / Champions League and have never appointed a former Town manager...

Coincidence ..?  i dont think so.

Liverpool and Spurs are not champions just like Grimsby

Are the telegraph looking for some tenuous links to do some click bait?  

How about, Champions League success is integral to the sales & marketing strategy GTFC as well as LFC and THFC.

;D

Our new "Stadium" is being based on the stadium in Madrid where the final is taking place?

I've been to Liverpool, but I've never been to Tottnumb!

Ermmm it`s played on grass and BP has grass

Jevons.

End of thread

Did Andy Robertson play for Hull the Other year when they came for a friendly ????

Edit

No he never he didnt sign for Hull till a year later ......but as part of the transfer deal that took Robertson from Dundee to Hull  Conor Townsend went on loan from Hull to Dundee and of course Conor played for Town
