First and foremost, amazing 3 points against a team that has won 9 on the spin. Hats off to their fans, they were brilliant, but then you would be sitting top of the pile. They looked lively and got forward in numbers with their wing back system in the first half. The sending off definately allowed us into the game. Criticism to Hurst for taking clifton off but bringing mcguire drew on turned the game. Great comeback.

Now fory gripe. This was my first ever game in the main stand. What a group of archaic moaning fans. I was astounded. Then the icing on the cake l, Hurst makes an 85th minute sub and the comment from the 4 old boys behind me when Dieseruvwe comes on one chap says 'he's that lad with a n*g n*g name no-one can pronounce.

I'm utterly shocked, disgusted and totally down beat this was the attitude of our own.

I don't wanna be a trouble causer, and a grass, but I believe in the people on this board to make a difference and not to stand for this anymore.

Anyways I won't be attending that stand again.

I have to say '85 - you need to go out more often.
What do you expect the Board to do - place spy cameras/mics everywhere in the ground?

In his three stints as Grimsby Town manager spanning over 10 years the club was never relegated and he also guided them to three promotions.
Only 14 managers have reached 1,000 matches in charge of a Football League team by 1998 and Buckley is one of them.

You think you had it bad the person behind me cane out with, wait for it …..

“why is the sea brown”?

“What is that (container) ship carrying, fish”?

“Is it a man or a woman in the mascot suit”?

“Are pies popular”?

“Does it always sell out”?

Nice lady, I think it was her first game 🙂

Did have to chuckle at some of the Stockport fans comments on Twitter, essentially saying if it had stayed 11 v11 they’d have won it by 3 or 4… as others rightly replied, perhaps, but it didn’t and you didn’t. Can only play the circumstances dealt I’m afraid!

As someone else pointed out, great example that anything can happen in football regardless of stature, cash spent or form! It’s a funny old game as they say and I think we should be confident heading into the run in… we absolutely can do it!

All seem reasonable questions for someone attending their first game. Nowt wrong with that.

See previous message 9 in this thread. There are other ways of addressing the issue, if you didn't feel comfortable confronting them. If you want to bury your head in the sand and bleat about those racists rather than become part of the solution, then it is your call.

I guess the fact that you're asking me to read the 9 replies on dealing with racism, rather than acknowledge my statement about racism. It speaks volumes. If you were in my shoes what would you do as a lone fan surrounded by those words in a passionate crowd. BTW I'm absolutely mad about town I'm just fed up of seeing players being hammered. How dare anyone call one of our own a n*g n*g when we're 2 1 up. Dare I mention Halifax away the year went up.

Hang on fella, in your original post you stated there were four behind you and one came out with what you perceived to be a racist comment.
Does that make the other three racist by association?
Should they have said or done something?
Did you say or do something?
Four racists? Really?

Then report it, if you can give the club seat numbers and they are a STH then the club will be able to trace them. Make a positive change rather bleating on here, which does not help anyone.

It might help people with non-white friends & family, like me, decide where they might be able to sit at BP without being subject to racist abuse. Given the apologism on here, it’s probably not worth bothering at all

You do really need to report this to GTFC, without any action by you this will continue to happen.

I am quite saddened yet not shocked that instead of condoning the racist incident, some on here have a go at the person making the claims.

I certainly don't condone the racist comment.
For the record, I condemn it.

Because at this time of year there are more trippers getting washed on the beach in Cleethorpes so it loses its normal turquoise hue.
