Nickname: Town
Colours: Black and white stripes

Ground: TBD
League: TBD
Ownership: fan-owned with a cap on the max % ownership

In all seriousness I don’t think we need to form a Phoenix club . Cleethorpes Town are a well run club with the potential to grow as the replacement for GTFC should the worst happen . They represent the whole area as GTFC do .

There's already a club in the town that is ambitious and could do good things if it suddenly had 4-5000 people backing it and it already has strong links with GTFC - why set up a new one?

Buy into Cleethorpes Town FC and re-name it Grimsby & Cleethorpes Town, already established and got a ground.

Stupid idea I know but desperate times.

I think it's slightly presumptuous just to swallow up another club.
