No, going out of business would be the last straw and re-appearing as grimsby town 2021 Ltd in the 8th tier wouldn't be too clever either.



It wouldn’t be a great idea. Nor would going on another season busting losing run but it now seems to be the Grimsby way.

Not for me.

Please stop talking about going back to non league.

I still have nightmares about the night I saw us lose 5-0 at Braintree.


I quite enjoyed stuffing Mansfield and then Histon  a week later

I be tempted to pay off Hanson and Green if possible, they are on big money, allegedly .


I had to smile at your comment. I was playing Football Manager a few days ago (not as Town) and at the end of the January 2021 transfer window, both Hanson and Green were released by GTFC. Ollie left to manage Sunderland after only 9 months in charge of Town. And Town are currently languishing in 20th position in League 2.

The key moment for me was when to paraphrase Ollie he stated he was after a striker who the fans would know and like. That deal failed for whatever reason and from there we have simply added more (a lot more) of the same in the hope of covering injuries and maybe uncovering a gem of a player.

Had we signed that player I think things may have been a bit different. It may not be Ollie’s or the club’s fault but we would have had a “marque” signing that would have covered Hanson’s tales of woe and encouraged the team to think that if they got a decent pass into box a goal might well follow.

I think fans are being patient. We all recognise the edge of the pit when we see it and we don’t want to fall in. But I do think Ollie has got to pull something out of the fire as regards a signing sooner rather than later if the fans are to keep faith with him and his project.

Is that who it was? I didn’t know that.

Theo Robinson was a target but I wonder if this name we were chasing was Bogle.
